Quotes:

Zed: Stay close to me - inside my aura!

Zardoz: Zardoz is pleased.

Zed: [watching his memory-scan video of hunting down Brutals] I love to see them running. I love the moments of their deaths - when I am one with Zardoz.

Consuella: In hunting you, I have become you. I've destroyed what I set out to defend.::Zed: "He who fights too long against dragons, becomes a dragon himself."... Nietzsche.

The Tabernacle: You have destroyed us. You found the flaw in the crystal. We are gone. You are alone.

Consuella: Penic erection was one of the many unsolved evolutionary mysteries surrounding sexuality. Every society had an elaborate subculture devoted to erotic stimulation. But nobody could quite determine how this...::[Consuella points to a diagram of a flaccid male penis and scrotum]::Consuella: ...becomes this.::[Consuella points to a diagram of an erect penis and scrotum]::Consuella: Of course, we all know the physical process involved, but not the link between stimulus and response. There seems to be a correlation with violence, with fear. Many hanged men died with an erection. You are all more or less aware of our intensive researches into this subject. Sexuality declined probably because we no longer needed to procreate. Eternals soon discovered that erection was impossible to achieve. And we are no longer victims of this violent, convulsive act which so debased women and betrayed men. This Brutal...::[Consuella indicates Zed]::Consuella: ...like other primates living unselfconscious lives, is capable of spontaneous and reflexive erection. As part of May's studies of this creature, we're trying to find, once again, the link between erotic stimulation and erection. This experiment will measure autoerotic stimulation of the cortex, leading to erection.

The Tabernacle: Sleep was necessary for man when his waking and unconscious lives were separated. As Eternals achieved total consciousness. Sleep became obsolete and Second Level meditation took its place.

The Tabernacle: You have penetrated me. There is no escape. You are within me. Come into my center. Come into the center of the crystal!

The Tabernacle: [perpetually repeating] Caution: You are approaching the periphery shield of Vortex Four. Caution: You are approaching the periphery shield of Vortex Four.

[the gigantic Stone Head hovers before the worshipful horde of Exterminators]::Zardoz: Zardoz speaks to you, His chosen ones.::Exterminators: We are the chosen ones!::Zardoz: You have been raised up from Brutality, to kill the Brutals who multiply, and are legion. To this end, Zardoz your God gave you the gift of the Gun. The Gun is good!::Exterminators: The Gun is good!::Zardoz: The Penis is evil! The Penis shoots Seeds, and makes new Life to poison the Earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the Gun shoots Death and purifies the Earth of the filth of Brutals. Go forth, and kill! Zardoz has spoken.
