Quotes:

Pastor Abin Cooper: [from trailer] I fear God. You better believe I fear God.

Cheyenne: They're going to kill my family.::Jarod: Good!

Joseph Keenan: People just do the strangest things when they believe they're entitled. But they do even stranger things when they just plain believe.

Mrs. Vasquez: Even the Nazis think this guy is nuckin' futs.

Pastor Abin Cooper: You're already dead sinner. You destroyed your spirit in a waste of shame.

ASAC Brooks: How much do you think a cross like that costs?::Joseph Keenan: Do you mean in dollars or common sense?

Joseph Keenan: [at the inquest, staring into space]::Agent Carol: And then what happened? Special Agent Keenan? Special Agent Keenan?::Joseph Keenan: [breaks out of it]::Agent Carol: What happened?::Joseph Keenan: I subdued the suspect... with a head butt.::Agent Carol: [amused] A head butt?::Joseph Keenan: Yes sir. The suspect was standing... unnaturally close. And then the trumpet blast sounded three more times, and a fourth and a fifth. By then it was pretty clear that the Rapture wasn't going to happen, so we rounded up the remaining Five Pointers.::Agent Carol: Hey, what was it? The trumpet blasts?::Joseph Keenan: Pardon?::Agent Carol: The trumpet blast, what was it really?::Joseph Keenan: Oh, that. Well some new neighbors, these eco kids from the university with a compost collective - they've got an acre off of the ass end of the Five Point property, other side of the hill. Abin's been giving them a bunch of guff because of the smell of the compost.::Agent Hammond: Was it bad?::Joseph Keenan: [laughs] Gets so you could taste it. But Abin's been harassing these kids, sending some of his bigger boys over to bitch at first, maybe break a window or two. Then I guess they went old school - lots of sugar in gas tanks, burning bags of dog shit.::Agent Carol: The college kids?::Joseph Keenan: No, that was Cooper and his church. The eco kids never so much as called the cops. They got creative instead. They thought it'd be funny to take a page out of Revelations and get Cooper and his family's hopes up with the trumpets. So they got this big-ass rusty old siren from a fire house that just got a new one. The fire chief said they could take the damn thing so long as they carted it off, it's as big as a Mini Cooper. So they trucked this thing down to their compost collective, they put it in a barn, they hook it up to an iPod of all things. And they played these single note trumpet blasts they pulled off the Internet.::Agent Hammond: And they had no idea that you were even there?::Joseph Keenan: [shrugs] Just dumb luck...

Joseph Keenan: You said this was going to be a simple in-and-out, sir. [holds phone up to sound of machine gun fire, then speaks again] Simple just shit itself.

Joseph Keenan: Who fired? *Who fired*, goddamn it?::ASAC Brooks: Local Agent Three!::Sherrif Wynan: [Keenan storms over to Wynan and grabs him by ear] Ah! Goddamn it! What is-?::Joseph Keenan: [sweeps Wynan's hat off] Who the fuck are you?::Sherrif Wynan: I'm...::Joseph Keenan: Did he fire at us?::Sherrif Wynan: No, he-he was armed...::Joseph Keenan: Did he open fire on us?::Sherrif Wynan: That son of a bitch had a machine gun!::Joseph Keenan: They got *kids* in there, asshole!::Sherrif Wynan: Sorry! I'm s...::Joseph Keenan: Kids you just turned into hostages!::Sherrif Wynan: I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!::Joseph Keenan: Asshole!::Sherrif Wynan: You can't talk to me, you son of a bitch, I am a King's County elected official!::Joseph Keenan: [wrests Wynan's rifle from him] Sit your ass back in your vehicle! [tosses rifle to tactical agent] *Now!*

Joseph Keenan: You're still gonna kill them...::Agent Carol: The U.S. Government doesn't kill people, Agent Keenan, in or out of custody.::Agent Hammond: [switches off camera] Of course we're going to kill them, Joe. We're going to kill them with kindness.

Mordechai: Don't let them take your God away from you too. Whether he exists or not, don't let them take that away too.

[first lines]::Tour Guide: Unfortunately our admission is not inclusive in your tour price, so sorry you must pay. But, um, the good news it's only 10 zlotas, so not so very bad.

Schmidt: Imagine God is a surgeon, and he has to remove a gangrenous leg or an arm to cure the whole body. It's a violent act. It's painful. But it is also loving. How would it be if we were living through a time like this? Not a punishment, a purification.

Idek: What did the Romans want? That the Jews live like Romans and abandon the Torah.::Schmidt: And where are the Romans now?::Idek: They are dust.::Schmidt: And the Torah?::Idek: Still living, still flowering, still illuminating the world.

[last lines]::Emily: And was their prayer answered?::Jacob: [referring to the Jewish people] They're still here...

Jacques: A thousand million stars in our galaxy alone. If God loves Jews so much, why didn't he fill the universe with Jews instead of stars?

Jesus Christ, Micah, they were our parents.::Micah: They were adults! They were of that world and we have seen the way of that world, and it is evil.
