T. E. Hulme

Thomas Ernest Hulme (September 16, 1883 – September 28, 1917) was an English writer, critic and poet who, through his writings on art, literature and politics, had a notable influence upon modernism, especially the Imagist poetic form.

Quotes

 * Literature, like memory, selects only the vivid patches.
 * As quoted in Notes of T E Hulme, Imagism & Imagists (1931) by Glenn Hughes

 * There is nothing to do but keep on.
 * From Trenches: St. Eloi

 * All emotions are the ore from which poetry may be sifted.
 * Essay on Contemporary American Poetry, in Poetry & Drama (1914), edited by Harold Munro, Vol II

 * Old houses were scaffolding once and workmen whistling.
 * As quoted in Images (1960), edited by Alun R. Jones

Lecture on Modern Poetry (1914)

 * The unit of significance in the poem is not the word but the phrase or sentence...a poet should consider the effect of the whole poem, not its local felicities.

 * My objection to metre is that it enables people to write verse with no poetic inspiration.

 * There were certain impressions I wanted to fix. I read verse models but none seemed to suitably express that kind of impression..until I came to read French vers libre which seemed to eactly fitr the case.

Speculations (Essays, 1924)

 * It is a delicate & difficult art fitting rhythm to an idea...communicating momentary phases in a poet's mind.

 * The artist tries to see what there is to be interested in... He has not created something, he has seen something.

 * A poem is good if it contains a new analogy and startles the reader out of the habit of treating words as counters.

 * The prose writer drags meaning along with a rope, the poet makes it stand out and hit you.

 * In the light of absolute values (religious or ethical) man himself is judged to be limited or imperfect, while he can occasionally accomplish acts which partake of perfection, he, himself can never be perfect.
 * Here is the root of all romanticism: that man, the individual, is an infinite reservoir of possibilities; and if you can so rearrange society by the destruction of oppressive order then these possibilities will have a chance and you will het Progress. One can define the classical quite clearly as the exact opposite to this. Man is an extraordinary fixed and limited animal whose nature is absolutely constant. It is only by tradition and organization that anything decent can be got out of him.
 * A number of abstract ideas, of which we are as a matter of fact unconscious. We do not see them, but we see other things through them.

Notes on Language and Style (1929)

 * Poetry is no more, no less than a mosaic of words, so great exactness is required for each one.

 * If literature (realistic) did really resemble life, it would be interminable, dreary, commonplace eating and dressing, buttoning, with here and there a patch of vividness. Life is composed of exquisite moments and the rest is shadows of them.

 * Thought is prior to language and consists in the simultaneous presentation to the mind of two different images.

Wikiquote:Votes for deletion archive/Brand (2nd nomination)

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was: delete. —LrdChaos 18:03, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Brand
This nomination was orphaned; the tag was added to the article by on June 27, 2006, but no corresponding entry was added here. User:Asav made the following comment on the talk page: "I've reinstated the VfD, simply because I've incorporated the (single) Ibsen quote in his main quote page. There's nothing wrong with it; it's just that there are so many Ibsen quotes floating around Wikoquote, and they might as well be collected on his main page. (Of course, I'll redo the links.) Asav 07:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)" This page was previously nominated for deletion; no consensus was reached and the article was kept as a result. —LrdChaos 15:01, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Vote closed. Result: delete (five votes to delete, one vote to redirect). —LrdChaos 18:03, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

 * No vote at this time. —LrdChaos 15:01, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Henrik Ibsen, per Jeffq. —LrdChaos 14:28, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, or at least redirect to Henrik Ibsen. In its 18-month existence, no other quote has been added to the single quote this article contains. There are four times as many quotes for this play in the Ibsen article, and that article is hardly overburned with quotes. I'm satisfied that there is no current interest in creating anything more than a stub for this play, so we should not have a second article when one will suffice. Furthermore, I am beginning to think we should discourage separate articles for specific works of art unless they are likely to generate enough quotes to make their authors' articles too long. Separate articles tend to cause two bad things:
 * Too many quotes, raising copyright or Wikisource issues.
 * Poor sourcing. Many editors seem to feel that the mere inclusion in a book or other work article is adequate to serve the community's need to verify, which is very much not the case. Requiring editors to read an entire work to verify a quote pretty much guarantees it won't get done.
 * — Jeff Q (talk) 18:15, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Agree with Jeff.  121a0012 00:10, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. While we're at it, perhaps we should also do a merge for the other Ibsen plays: A Doll's House, Peer Gynt and En Folkefiende. As they stand, there's no reason why they can't all be on the Ibsen page. - InvisibleSun
 * Delete InvisibleSun has a good point about merging the other articles. - Koweja 17:40, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, concur with Jeff, and also support the consolidation of Ibsen's works onto his page. ~ UDScott 13:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Bneyman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bneyman~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

1968

1968 (MCMLXVIII) was a leap year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar, the 1968th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 968th year of the 2nd millennium, the 68th year of the 20th century, and the 9th year of the 1960s decade. This is the year of the Protests of 1968.

Quotes

 * There has never been a year like 1968, and it is unlikely that there will ever be one again. At a time when nations and cultures were still separate and very different—and in 1968 Poland, France, the United States, and Mexico were far more different from one another than they are today—there occurred a spontaneous combustion of rebellious spirits around the world.
 * Mark Kurlansky, 1968: The Year that Rocked the World (2004)
 * It seemed — in 1968 — the possibilities of peace and brotherhood could be realised that very year. We're still working on it.
 * Donovan, during a performance for "Beatle Week" in Liverpool (27 August 2006), as prelude to singing "Hurdy Gurdy Man" (YouTube video)

National Treasure (film)

National Treasure is a 2004 American film that follows Benjamin Franklin Gates, a man whose family has a history of searching for a near-limitless treasure, one his father (and just about everyone else) believes is a mystery. When he finally discovers a real clue, he must protect it, the treasure, and a precious national document from his former partner.
 * Directed by Jon Turteltaub. Written by Jim Kouf, Oren Aviv, and Charles Segars (story); Jim Kouf, Cormac and Marianne Wibberley (screenplay).

Dialogue

 * [In 1974 John Adams Gates tells the story of a mysterious treasure to a young Ben Gates]
 * John Adams Gates: OK, here we go. It was 1832, on a night much like this. Charles Carroll was the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence. He was also a member of a secret society known as the Masons, and... he knew he was dying. He woke up his stable boy in the middle of the night and ordered him to take him to the White House to see Andrew Jackson because it was very urgent that he speak to the President.
 * Ben Gates: Did he talk to him?
 * John Adams Gates: No. He never got the chance. The President wasn't there that night, but Charles Carroll had a secret. So he took into his confidence the one person he could: my grandfather's grandfather, Thomas Gates.
 * Ben Gates: What was his secret?
 * John Adams Gates: A treasure! A treasure beyond all imagining. A treasure that had been fought over for centuries by tyrants, pharaohs, emperors, warlords. And every time it changed hands, it grew larger. And then, suddenly, [snaps his fingers] it vanished. It didn't reappear for more than a thousand years when knights from the First Crusade found hidden vaults beneath the Temple of Solomon. You see, the knights who found the vaults believed that the treasure was too great for any one man, not even a king. They brought the treasure back to Europe and took the name... the Knights Templar. Over the next century, they smuggled it out of Europe and formed a new brotherhood known as the Freemasons, in honor of the builders of the Great Temple. War followed. By the time of the American Revolution, the treasure had been hidden again. By then, the Masons came to include George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Paul Revere. They knew they had to make sure the treasure would never fall into the hands of the British, so they devised a series of clues and maps to its location. Over time the clues were lost or forgotten, until only one remained. And that was the secret that Charles Carroll entrusted to young Thomas Gates.
 * Charles Carroll: Charlotte.
 * Ben Gates: Who's Charlotte?
 * John Adams Gates: Oh, not even Mr. Carroll knew that. Now, look here, Ben. The Freemasons among our Founding Fathers left us clues [takes out one-dollar bill] like these. The unfinished pyramid, the all-seeing eye. Symbols of the Knights Templar, guardians of the treasure. They are speaking to us through these.
 * Patrick Gates: You mean laughing at us. You know what that dollar represents: the entire Gates family fortune. Six generations of fools... chasing after fool's gold.
 * John Adams Gates: It's not about the money, Patrick. It's never been about the money!
 * Patrick Gates: Come on, son. Time to go. You can say your goodbyes.

 * [Sadusky and Ben discuss the reward for finding the treasure]
 * Agent Sadusky: Just like that?
 * Ben: Just like that.
 * Agent Sadusky: You know that you've just handed me your biggest bargaining chip.
 * Ben: The Declaration of Independence is not a bargaining chip. Not to me.
 * Agent Sadusky: Have a seat. So what's your offer?
 * Ben: Oh, how about a bribe? Say, ten billion dollars?
 * Agent Sadusky: I take it you found the treasure.
 * Ben: It's about five stories beneath your shoes.
 * Agent Sadusky: Hm. You know, the Templars and the Freemasons believed the treasure was too great for any one man to have, not even a king. That's why they went to such great lengths to keep it hidden.
 * Ben: That's right. The Founding Fathers believed the same thing about government. I figure their solution will work for the treasure, too.
 * Agent Sadusky: Give it to the people.
 * Ben: Divide it amongst the Smithsonian, the Louvre, the Cairo Museum... there's thousands of years of world history down there, and it belongs to the world, and everybody in it.
 * Agent Sadusky: [Admiringly] You really don't understand the concept of a bargaining chip.
 * Ben: Here's what I want: Dr. Chase gets off completely clean; not even a little Post-It on her service record.
 * Agent Sadusky: Okay.
 * Ben: I want the credit for the find to go to the entire Gates family, with the assistance of Mr. Riley Poole.
 * Agent Sadusky: And what about you?
 * Ben: I'd really love not to go to prison. I can't even describe how much I would love not to go to prison.
 * Sadusky: Someone's got to go to prison, Ben.
 * Ben: Well, if you've got a helicopter, I think I can help with that.
 * [cut to Ian and his crew attempting to break in to the Old North Church in Boston]

 * Ian: [about the Declaration of Independence] We could borrow it.
 * Ben: Steal it? I don't think so.
 * Ian: Look, Ben... I understand your bitterness. I really do. You've spent your entire life searching for this treasure, only to have the respected historical community treat you and your family with mockery and contempt. You should be able to rub this treasure in their arrogant faces, and I want you to have the chance to do that.
 * Ben: How?
 * Ian: We all have our areas of expertise. You don't think mine are limited to writing checks, do you? In another life, I've arranged several operations of questionable legality.
 * Shaw: I'd take his word for it if I was you.
 * Ian: So don't worry. I'll make all the arrangements.
 * Ben: No!
 * Ian: I could really use your help here.
 * Ben: Ian, I'm not going to let you steal the Declaration of Independence.
 * Ian: Alright. From this point on, all you're going to be is a hindrance. [signals Shaw to ready a gun to which Ben nervously laughs]
 * Riley: Hey!
 * Ben: What are you going to do? Are you going to shoot me, Shaw? Well, you can't shoot me. There's more to the riddle; information you don't have, I do. I'm the only one who can solve it.
 * Shaw: He's bluffing.
 * Ben: We play poker together, Ian. You know I can't bluff.
 * Ian: Tell me what I need, or I'll shoot your friend. [Shaw points his gun at Riley]
 * Riley: Hey!
 * Ian: Quiet, Riley. Your job's finished here.
 * [Ben lights flare, Shaw turns his gun back to Ben and looks astonished along with Ian]
 * Ben: Look where you're standing. All that gunpowder. You shoot me, I drop this, we all go up.
 * Riley: Ben?
 * Ian What happens when the flare burns down? [Ben looks questionably] You just tell me what I need to know.
 * Ben: You need to know... If Shaw can catch.
 * [throws the flare, Riley squints, scared, Ian catches it before it hits gunpowder]
 * Ian: Nice try, though. [coat sleeve catches on fire and drops flare on gunpowder]

 * Abigail: You told my assistant that this was an urgent matter?
 * Ben: Yes, ma'am. Well, I'm gonna get straight to the point. Someone's gonna steal the Declaration of Independence.
 * Riley: It's true.
 * Abigail: I think I'd better put you gentlemen in touch with the FBI...
 * Ben: We've been to the FBI.
 * Abigail: And...?
 * Riley: They assured us that the Declaration cannot possibly be stolen.
 * Abigail: They're right.
 * Ben: My friend and I are less certain. However, if we were given the privilege of examining the document... [Abigail eyes him curiously] we would be able to tell you for certain if it were actually in any danger.
 * Abigail: What do you think you're gonna find?
 * Ben: We believe that there's an... encryption on the back.
 * Abigail: An encryption, like a code?
 * Ben: Yes, ma'am.
 * Abigail: Of what?
 * Ben: A... cartograph.
 * Abigail: A map?
 * Ben: Yes, ma'am.
 * Abigail: A map of what?
 * Ben: The location of... [clears throat] of hidden items, of historic and intrinsic value.
 * Abigail: A treasure map?
 * Riley: That's where we lost the FBI.
 * Abigail: You're treasure hunters, aren't you?
 * Ben: We're more like treasure protectors.
 * Abigail: Mr. Brown, I have personally seen the back of the Declaration of Independence, and I promise you the only thing there is a notation that reads, "Original Declaration of Independence", dated...
 * Ben: July 4, 1776, yes, ma'am.
 * Abigail: But no map.
 * Ben: It's invisible.
 * Abigail: [sarcastically] Oh, right.
 * Riley: And that's where we lost the Department of Homeland Security.

 * Riley: If it's any consolation, you have me convinced.
 * Ben: It's not.
 * Riley: I was thinking, what if we go public, plaster the story all over the Internet? It's not like we have our reputations to worry about. Although, I don't think that's exactly gonna scare Ian away.
 * Ben: A hundred and eighty years of searching, and I'm three feet away. Of all the ideas that became the United States, there's a line here that's at the heart of all the others: "But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security." People don't talk that way anymore.
 * Riley: Beautiful, huh? No idea what you just said.
 * Ben: It means, if there's something wrong, those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action. I'm gonna steal it.
 * Riley: What?
 * Ben: I'm gonna steal the Declaration of Independence.

 * Riley: OK Ben. Pay attention. I've brought you to the Library of Congress. Why? Because it's the biggest library in the world. Over twenty million books, and they're all saying the same exact thing: listen to Riley. What we have here is an entire layout of the Archives: sort of builder's blueprints. We've got construction manuals, phone lines, water, and sewage. It's all right here. [Riley continues in voiceover as the camera moves around the archives] Now, when the Declaration is on display, it is surrounded by guards...and video monitors... and little families from Iowa... and little kids on their eighth-grade field trip. And underneath an inch of bulletproof glass is an army of sensors and heat monitors that will go off if someone gets too close with a high fever. Now, when it's not on display, it is lowered into a four-foot-thick concrete, steel-plated vault that happens to be equipped with an electronic combination lock and biometric access-denial systems.
 * Ben: You know, Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2,000 times to develop the carbonized cotton-thread filament for the incandescent light bulb.
 * Riley: Edison?
 * Ben: And when asked about it, he said "I didn't fail; I found out 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," but he only needed one way to make it work. [sets down a book in front of Riley] The Preservation Room. Enjoy. Go ahead. Do you know what the preservation room is for?
 * Riley: Delicious jams and jellies?
 * Ben: No, that's where they clean, repair, and maintain all the documents and their storage housings when they are not on display or in the vault. Now, when the case needs work, they take it out of the vault and directly across the hall and into the Preservation Room. The best time for us or Ian to steal it would be during the gala this weekend, when the guards are distracted by the VIPs upstairs; but we'll make our way to the Preservation Room, where there is much less security.
 * Riley: Well... uh... Ian... Preservation, hmm. Well, this might be possible.
 * Ben: It might.

 * [Abigail is freaking out, thinking that Ian has the Declaration]
 * Ben: They don't have it. [Pulls the Declaration out to show her] See, now can you please stop shouting?
 * Abigail: Give me that!
 * Ben: You're still shouting. And it's really starting to annoy. You would do well, Dr. Chase, to be a bit more civilized in this instance.
 * Abigail: If that's the real Declaration, what did they get?
 * Ben: A souvenir. I thought it might be a good idea to have a duplicate, turns out I was right. Actually, I had to pay for the real one and the duplicate, so you owe me $35, plus tax.
 * Riley: Genius.
 * Abigail: Verdammt! Give me that!
 * Ben: You know something? You're shouting again.
 * Riley: I'm pretty sure she was swearing, too.
 * Ben: Well, I probably deserved that.

 * Abigail: What do you see?
 * Ben: 2:22.
 * Abigail: What time is it now?
 * Clothing Store Clerk: Almost 3.
 * Abigail: [sighs] We missed it.
 * Riley: No, we didn't. We didn't miss it because... you don't know this? I know something about history that you don't know.
 * Ben: I'd be very excited to learn about it, Riley.
 * Riley: Hold on one second, let me just take in this moment. [takes a deep breath] This is cool. Is this how you feel all the time? Well, except now, of course--
 * Abigail: Riley!
 * Riley: All right! What I know is that daylight savings wasn't established until World War I. If it's 3 p.m. now that means that in 1776 it would be 2 p.m.
 * Ben: Riley, you're a genius.
 * Riley: Do you actually know who the first person to come up with the idea of daylight savings time was?
 * Abigail and Ben: Benjamin Franklin.
 * [Riley stomps his foot in disappointment]

 * Ian: Hello, Ben. How are you?
 * Ben: Um, chained to a desk.
 * Ian: Sorry to hear that. I want you to meet me on the flight deck of the USS Intrepid. You know where that is?
 * Ben: New York.
 * Ian: Meet me there at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. And bring those glasses you found at Independence Hall. Yeah, I know about the glasses. We can take a look at the Declaration, and then you can be on your way.
 * Ben: And I'm supposed to believe that?
 * Ian: I told you from the start, I only wanted to borrow it. You can have it. And the glasses. I'll even throw in the pipe from the Charlotte.
 * Ben: I'll be there.
 * Ian: And tell the FBI agents listening in on this call if they want the Declaration back, and not just a box of confetti, then you'll come alone.

 * [Ian wants the next clue]
 * Patrick Gates: It's part of Freemason teachings. In King Solomon's temple, there was a winding staircase. It signified the journey that had to be made to find the light of truth. The lantern is the clue.
 * Ian: What does it mean?
 * Ben: Boston. It's Boston.
 * Patrick Gates: The Old North Church, where Thomas Newton hung a lantern in the steeple, to signal Paul Revere that the British were coming. One if by land, two if by sea. One lantern. Under the winding staircase of the steeple, that's where we have to look.
 * Ian: Thank you.
 * Patrick Gates: Hey, you have to take us with you.
 * Ian: Why? So you can escape in Boston? Besides, with you out of the picture, there's less baggage to carry.
 * Patrick Gates: What if we lied?
 * Ian: Did you?
 * Ben: What if there's another clue?
 * Ian: Then I'll know right where to find you. See you, Ben.

 * Riley: [After they find the treasure] They offered you ten percent, man. Ten percent.
 * Ben: Tell you what- next time we find a treasure that redefines history for all mankind, you call the shots.
 * Riley: What do you care? You got the girl. Enjoy your spoils while I sit on one percent. Half of one percent, actually. [Jumps into red Ferrari]
 * Ben: [Looking at Ferrari] I'm sorry for your suffering, Riley.

Simon Munnery

Simon Munnery (born 1967) is an English stand-up comedian known for his character work. Among his characters are 'The League Against Tedium' and Alan Parker Urban Warrior. His television credits include Attention Scum! and Cluub Zarathustra (sic).

Episode One

 * In this world there are winners and losers. And, of course, 'the others', who comprise the majority.

 * Why do men die before their wives? Could it be because they want to?

 * "The pen is mightier than the sword," you say. Get out your pens and prepare to have your logic tested by steel.

 * Like most true Scots I despise the haggis, the kilt and the caber. Unlike most true Scots, I am not Scottish.

 * Although no man is an island, you can make quite an effective raft out of six.

 * You know, it was only after my father showed me what I would inherit that I struggled to keep him alive.

Episode Two

 * There are two types of people in this world: those who live in the cities - or 'citizens' as I call them - and those who live in the countryside... who shall remain nameless.

 * It is said that over time, owners come to resemble their dogs. But does that excuse auntie Hilda from shitting in the garden?

 * You may think I'm cruel to the monkey, but you only see the tip of the iceberg, for the monkey is cruel to me. It hits me when I sleep. It sleeps when I hit it. Imagine how impotent that makes me feel.

 * It is said that behind every great man lies a great woman. This is because women lie.

How To Live (2005)

 * Sex. If you want it badly that's how you're going to get it.

 * Whatever it says in the bible the truth remains. You can read the bible and dismiss it as nonsense if you like; you can dismiss it as nonsense without reading it to save time if you prefer.

 * Look at the sea and remember the past. Look at the sky and imagine the future. Look at the land and think of the present. And in the most profound place where land, sea and sky are one - there ye shall play volleyball.

 * It is the vanity of women to spend hours in front of the mirror. It is the vanity of men not to bother.

 * If you only ever read one book in your life... I highly recommend you keep your mouth shut.

 * I was walking down the road the other day, and I couldn't help but notice how beautiful the world is. And I thought to myself "Why would anyone in their right mind bother to take drugs?". Then I remembered I was on drugs, and that was the reason.

... and nothing but (2015)

 * Clowns divorce. Custardy battle.

The Wreath (2018)

 * I went to a funeral the other day. Caught the wreath.

The Doors (film)

The Doors is a 1991 film about the famous and influential 1960's rock band and its lead singer and composer, Jim Morrison.
 * Directed by Oliver Stone. Written by Randall Jahnson and Oliver Stone.

The ultimate story of Sex, Drugs & Rock 'N' Roll Taglines

Jim Morrison

 * "The movie will begin in five moments," the mindless voice announced. All those unseated will await the next show. We filed slowly, languidly into the hall. The auditorium was vast and silent. As we seated and were darkened, the voice continued, "The program for this evening is not new. You've seen this entertainment through and through. You've seen your birth, your life and death. You might recall all the rest. Did you have a good world when you died? Enough to base a movie on?"
 * Is everybody in?... Is everybody in?... Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin...
 * It was the first time I tasted fear. I musta been about four, like a child is just like a flower, his head is floating in the breeze.
 * The reaction I get now looking back is the soul of the ghosts of those dead Indians—maybe one or two of them were just running around freaking out and just leaped into my soul—and they're still there.
 * We gotta take the planet back, reinvent the gods, make new myths.
 * [to John] What's a rock and roll band for man, if you can't party all night and do bad things?
 * The music was new black polished chrome and came over the summer like liquid night.
 * I like a man who wears his soul on his face.
 * Hey! I am the Lizard King. I can do anything! Raise your hands if you understand! Alive, any of you alive—let's take a poll—how many of you know you're really alive?! [numerous people raise their hands and yell] BULLSHIT! Plastic soldiers in a miniature dirt war! C'mon! How many of you people know you're alive? How many of you people know you're really alive!
 * When the serpent appears, his head is ten feet long and five feet wide. He has one red eye and one green eye. He's deadly and he's seven miles long. As he moves—on his scales is written all the history of the world, all people, all actions, all of us our little pictures on the scales, God it's big! -- and it's eating as it moves all the time, devouring, digesting consciousness, power, a monster of energy! We must kiss the snake on the tongue, if it senses our fear, it will eat us instantly. But if we kiss it without fear, the snake will take us through the garden and out the gate. To our freedom -we must ride this snake. To the end of time.
 * Some of the biggest mistakes in my life have been haircuts.
 * Where's your will to be weird man?
 * Actually, I don't really remember being born. It musta happened during one of my blackouts.
 * Y'all believe what you want to believe, you will anyway... but it does kinda show you what excites people? Fear, pity, horror—all those good things that count. It's sorta I guess like being on the edge of an orgasm, y'know... that mystery just before you come. When? If? Should I? Will you die for me, eat me, this way, the end...
 * Maybe I should always fuck my critics.
 * Hatred is very underestimated emotion.
 * I drink so I can talk to assholes. This includes me. Let's just say I was testing the bounds of reality—that's-all—I was curious... I kinda always preferred to be hated. Like Eric von Stroheim in the movies, the man you love to hate, it's meant to be ironic, courage wants to laugh. Y'know it's a stupid situation.
 * I go out on a stage and I howl for people. In me they see what they want to see—some say the Lizard King, whatever that means, or some black-clad leather demon whatever that means... but really I think of myself as a sensitive, intelligent human being but with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the most crucial moment... a fake hero... The joke the gods played on me... it's okay, I accept the joke... and smile. Death old friend, death and my cock, I can forgive my injuries in the name of wisdom, luxury, romance. Words got me the wound and will get me well. All join now in lament of my cock, a tongue of knowledge in the feathered night. Boys get crazy in the head and suffer. I sacrifice my cock on the altar of silence.
 * [to Pam] I'm the poet and you're my muse.
 * [to audience] You're all a buncha fucking slaves!
 * Well uh, it's designed to wear you down y'know... when that rap sheet says the "United States of America versus You" it takes you down day by day, specially when no one really gives a shit about, y'know, the First Amendment that's on trial here... Nobody says anything about that, it's just uh did you take your pants off y'know, I mean that's not what it's about, it's about freedom, that's what it's about... but who cares, right? Freedom exists in a schoolbook.
 * I can only open doors, Ma'am. I can't drag people thru 'em. I'm no savior.

Pamela Courson

 * Take your time, Jim... There's no hurry, I'm all you have to do tonight.
 * Jim, don't go away! Come dance with me!
 * You're a poet, not a rock star.
 * What am I gonna do about these papers? Jim, Jim—you really need to organize this stuff! You handwriting's just like a little kid! My God look at this. I wonder if William Blake was ever this disorganized.

Robbie Krieger

 * I get scared thinking of all the choices inside. I could go. I could stay. I can live everywhere. I could die now if I wanted. It's limitless choice... and no one cares.
 * [to Jim] You said you love pain man, but you run from it every chance you get.
 * Well far as I'm concerned, Jim, I made music with Dionysus man. We had some moments on stage like no one will ever fucking know.

John Densmore

 * I'm afraid of my father, I can't be what they want me to be.

Others

 * Ray Manzarek: [to Jim] Things are about to explode man. You can feel it in the air. Vietnam's right out there. Sides are being chosen. People wanna fight or fuck, love or kill, everything's gonna flame. The planet's screaming for change, Morrison. Make the myths man!
 * Patricia Kennealy: [to Jim] Come on rock god, fuck me, fuck me good.
 * Gloria Stavers: [to Jim] You control the audience, like dogs, manipulate them Jim, one picture can control a million people, be anything you want—growl at them, be ugly, be frightened, be selfish. Be man, woman, whild, animal. Live, die, return again. Anything you want. Everything is permitted. Go on look at yourself, fall in love with yourself. You're your own audience now Jim. They want you. Worship and love and adore you...Jim Morrison, the god of Rock and Cock...
 * Andy Warhol: [handing Jim a golden telephone] Edie gave this to me and said mmmmm, I could talk to God with this. But I don't really have anything to say. So... mmmm now you can talk to God.
 * Tom Baker: [to Jim] You're bored, you're not free. You tested all the limits, fame, fucking, money, -- whatcha gonna do now Jimbo? When the music's over, when you're too fat and ugly to get on a stage, whatcha gonna do for act three—puke on Heaven's door?

Dialogue

 * Jim: [entering through the window] Hi.
 * Pam: Wow! Hi...You have a problem with doors?
 * Jim: Waste of time. I followed you... from the beach...
 * Pam: Wow! You followed me? Why?
 * Jim: 'Cause... you're the one. [He kisses her]
 * Pam: Wow... neat.

 * Trick: [to Jim, after Jim's film was panned] Hey man whatdya expect, an Oscar?
 * Bones: You can't quit, you gotta voice. People can't dig cause they don't understand yet.
 * Jack: If you're an individual, if you're too good, they wanna cut your dick off. Look what happened to Orson Welles.
 * Trick: You quit now, they'll yank your deferment in no time and they'll get you for Vietnam man. Three more months you graduate.
 * Bones: Be cool, you never learned fuckin patience Morrison, you want everything at once.
 * Nick: They didn't get it. So make your films and fuck what they think.
 * Jim: You know what I think?
 * Bones: Yeah whadda you think?
 * Jim: You really want to know what I think?
 * Bones: Yeah yeah, whatddaya think?
 * Jim: I think we gotta get really ripped!

 * Jim: What turns you on?
 * Pam: I don't know. Experience. Freedom. Love... Now. Peyote's like love. When it's given it's blessed. When it's sold it's damned. I like peyote. I like acid, it's easier to get. I like the spiritual voyage. The first time I did acid I saw God. I did. I had a friend who was Christ. And he was Judas too. I suddenly knew the secret of everything -- that we're all one, the universe is one. And that everything is beautiful.
 * Jim: Is it? I don't know. I think you're alive by confronting death -- by experiencing pain.
 * Pam: I think you're alive by recognizing beauty -- seeing truth because when you discover truth you discover what love is... we're all saying the same thing. It's "love me and I'll love you."
 * Jim: It's only through death that you know life. Jesus, medicine men heal people by sacrificing their own life.
 * Pam: Do you love death?
 * Jim: I think life hurts a lot more than death. When you die the pain is over.

 * Jerry: What shit, "day destroys the night", "crawl back in your brain", "go insane". What do people wanna pay money to hear that shit?
 * Jim: The greater the suffering, the more terrible the events, the greater the pleasure Jerry. They want it, it's catharsis. Like the ancient Greeks.
 * Jerry: We're in Los Angeles, punk, how would you know? They like your pants, they're not listenin' to you, what the hell they see in you I...
 * Jim: But they understand Jerry. All our real desires are unconscious and unseen.
 * Jerry: You're the weirdest fuckin' guy I ever...
 * Jim: You love us?
 * Jerry: I love ya. You got two more shows to do.

 * Ray: [after being propositioned by a record manager] We'll have a band meeting. The four of us do everything unanimously or we don't do it.
 * Manager: The musketeers. I'm touched. But lemme tell you something -- loyalty don't pay the bills.

 * Jim: Jesus Ray, every girl out there wanted to fuck me, I could feel it for the first time!
 * Ray: Right on stud. But you better watch out for the guys.

 * John: I think I'm fucked up. I'm not thinking right.
 * Jim: You're fucked up John. Go with it, confusion is the sound of creation.
 * John: You should see your eyes right now, you're death. Look at your eyes -- you're crazy man, you look crazy. You scare me.
 * Jim: No no no John John. God is crazy too. God is part insane as well as sane. Not in control all the time. Dionysus was the God of the wine. He made ecstasy but he also made madness. Madness is all right. That's what you want, isn't it, isn't it?

 * Ray: I'm in pain man. I want something from the peyote. I feel the universe functioning perfectly but I'm still perfectly locked inside myself. Instead of oneness, I feel total isolation. Aloneness. Fear... pain...Jim, all I feel is pain.
 * Jim: Pain makes me feel more alive Ray. Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain but they're wrong.
 * John: I feel lust. I want to fuck everything I can, and I know it will never be enough.
 * Jim: Pam wants you. You're a good Catholic John, you want it so you can feel guilty about it... Fuck death away John.
 * Robbie: I feel Fear... so bad I just numb out all my feelings. I'm afraid of my father, I'm afraid of Yahweh... I wish I could play my guitar.
 * Jim: Maybe you should kill your father Robbie. He tried to kill you. Kill him!
 * Robbie: I'm so fucking scared.
 * Jim: But you're alive! It's beautiful! Fear, pain, lust, we've got to know all our feelings before we can come out the other side free men. Don't feel ashamed of yourselves, don't let society destroy your reality. Our freedom's the only thing worth dying for, it's the only thing worth living for!

 * Jim: I don't mind dying in a plane crash, a smile on my face.
 * Pam: As compared to what?
 * Jim: I just don't want to go out slow -- brain tumor, botulism. I want to feel what it's like, cause death is only going to happen to you once.

 * Ed Sullivan: Look, you boys don't forget to smile now. There's no reason to be so sullen out there...
 * Jim: Uh well, we're kind of a sullen group, Ed.

 * Pam: Aren't you doing this for you? Because you're a poet, not a rock star. Ed Sullivan's not a place for you.
 * Jim: You really know what I am Pam? You know what poetry is? Where is the feast they promised us? Where is the wine -- the new wine -- dying on the vine?
 * Pam: What are you saying?
 * Jim: Y'see -- I lied to you. I really love fame.

 * Pam: Fuck you man I'm outta here.
 * Jim: Get mad! Yeahhh! Love my girl! Yeah, go fuck the other guys. How many white guys have you fucked Pam? 10, 20? Black guys what? You like Chinese dicks? Mongolian penis? 30?
 * Pam: How many dogs have you fucked? You don't say no to anybody! Drugs, dogs, uglies, you'd fuck a doorknob with butter on it!
 * Jim: How could I do that?
 * Pam: [shouting] You're the first who couldn't make it with me anyway! You're the only limp dick in the lot!

 * Journalist: What are your songs about Mr. Morrison?
 * Jim: Uh, love death travel... revolt. We all write the songs, we're interested in anything about disorder, chaos, especially activity which seems to have no meaning...Like This. I think when you make peace with authority, you become authority.
 * Journalist: Can you define that a little more?
 * Jim: Yeah you can call us erotic politicians I guess.

 * Pam: [about Patricia] You actually put your dick in this woman Jim?
 * Jim: Well I... sometimes yeah.
 * Pam: I understand... I really do but don't ever think that Jim's gonna love or take care of you. You're one of a hundred you know.
 * Jim: Hey -- don't you know when to stop!
 * Pam: Look who's talking.
 * Patricia: I'd like to think Jim can make up his own mind who he loves and who he doesn't.
 * Pam: Don't kid yourself sweetheart, Jim's crazy but he's not that crazy. He loves me.

 * Ray: [about Pam] I never knew what you saw in that nightmare chick man.
 * Jim: Well she is kinda flakey -- like me. I mean she's just so vulnerable about everything. It makes me sad man. But she's always kinda believed in something about me y'know -- her little picture of me as the unsung poet -- and it's a fantasy I kinda dig y'know, 'stead of the one I live.
 * Ray: I don't know man, I don't wanna sound like your old man but you're only 27, you're living like you gotta get it all in, you gotta slow down man, you did it, you broke through to the other side.
 * Jim: We didn't break thru Ray, we just pushed things a little. When you really break through, there's nothing left. No music, no Doors, no God, nothing -- only a will to power.
 * Ray: I don't believe that. You were an American prince, man -- with overbred genes -- [Jim laughs] No! What could've been Jim? You could've been President. [Jim laughs] No man! What could've been Jim? We stood here on this beach on the edge of the Pacific that crazy summer day in '65 -- and we knew, you and I, we knew we were at the edge of the mind. we were there, man. One planet, one globe, one mind. Consciousness, we raised it, we were there.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Sprinter h. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Sprinter h~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
