Quotes:

McAllister: "Show me the heart unfettered by foolish dreams and I'll show you a happy man."::John Keating: "But only in their dreams can men be truly free. 'Twas always thus, and always thus will be."::McAllister: Tennyson?::John Keating: No, Keating.

John Keating: No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.

Meeks: I'll try anything once.::Dalton: Except sex.

John Keating: They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.

John Keating: O Captain, my Captain. Who knows where that comes from? Anybody? Not a clue? It's from a poem by Walt Whitman about Mr. Abraham Lincoln. Now in this class you can either call me Mr. Keating, or if you're slightly more daring, O Captain my Captain.

John Keating: We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?

John Keating: Sucking the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bone.

John Keating: There's a time for daring and there's a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for.

John Keating: I always thought the idea of education was to learn to think for yourself.::Nolan: At these boys' age? Not on your life!

Neil: For the first time in my whole life, I know what I wanna do! And for the first time, I'm gonna do it! Whether my father wants me to or not! Carpe diem!

Plot: Trevor is a 16 year old, sometimes-violent skinhead with no regard for authority, and would rather spend his time stealing cars than sitting in the detention centre to which he is sent. His social worker, Harry Parker, tries to do his best, but Trevor is only interested when there's something that he can get out of it. The authorities within the centre try to make Trevor conform to the norms of society, but he takes no notice, and would rather speak in a torrent of four-letter words and racial abuse.

Plot: The MGM crime reporter introduces August Wilmer, the Chief Inspector of Police in his town, who talks about how debunking alibis can help solve cases. In one such case, well known racketeer Mike Lichter is murdered, the police believed by Joe Rinelli, Lichter's second in command who rumors have it that Lichter was pushing out, and upon Lichter's death is the heir apparent to lead Lichter's racketeering organization. But Rinelli has what seems to be an airtight and almost too publicly announced alibi as to his whereabouts at the time of the murder. He was at the movie theater where the ticket seller, the usher and the theater manager can all vouch for him being there the evening in question. His exact whereabouts are unaccounted for for about ten or fifteen minutes, during which time there is no way he could have made it to the crime scene and back. The lead investigator, Inspector Charles Mackaye, is almost certain that Rinelli did it despite the alibi. Rinelli also seemed to have alibis for all cases in which he was seemingly involved. Needing to tread lightly, Mackaye plays on a hunch which involves Rinelli's family, some who are staunch supporters of his and some who want nothing to do with him, which is what Mackaye suspected would be the case, and is the basis of his hunch.
