Crash Movie Quote

[first lines] Graham: It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something.

Shereen: They think we're Arab. When did Persian become Arab?

Lara: [referring to the impenetrable cloak] He doesn't have it! Elizabeth: [confused] He doesn't have what?

Anthony: It's just black people demeaning other black people, using that word over and over. You ever hear white people callin' each other "honky" all the time? "Hey, honky, how's work?" "Not bad, cracker, we're diversifying!"

Rick: Why do these guys have to be black? No matter how we spin this thing, I'm either gonna lose the black vote or I'm gonna lose the law and order vote! Karen: You know, I think you're worrying too much. You have a lot of support in the black community. Rick: ll right. if we can't duck this thing, we're gonna have to neutralize it. What we need is a picture of me pinning a medal on a black man. The firefighter - the one that saved the camp or something - Northridge... what's his name? Bruce: He's Iraqi.

Officer Ryan: [talking on the phone] I wanna speak to your supervisor... Shaniqua: I am my supervisor! Officer Ryan: All right well, what's your name? Shaniqua: Shaniqua Johnson. Officer Ryan: Shaniqua. Big fucking surprise that is! Shaniqua: Oh! [Shaniqua hangs up]

Graham: Fuck you very much. Thanks for thinking of me.

Jean: I would like the locks changed again in the morning. Rick: You what?... Look, why don't you just go lie down, ok? Have you checked on James? Jean: Well of course I've checked on James. I've checked on him every five minutes since we've been home. Do not patronize me. I want the locks changed again in the morning.

Jean: I am angry all the time... and I don't know why.

Christine: I just couldn't stand see that man take away your dignity.

Cameron: [to Anthony] You embarrass me. You embarrass yourself.

Jean: Do you want to hear something funny? Maria: What's that Mrs. Jean? Jean: You're the best friend I have.

Officer Ryan: You think you know who you are? [Officer Hanson nods] Officer Ryan: You have no idea.

Anthony: Look around! You couldn't find a whiter, safer or better lit part of this city. But this white woman sees two black guys, who look like UCLA students, strolling down the sidewalk and her reaction is blind fear. I mean, look at us! Are we dressed like gangbangers? Do we look threatening? No. Fact, if anybody should be scared, it's us: the only two black faces surrounded by a sea of over-caffeinated white people, patrolled by the triggerhappy LAPD. So, why aren't we scared? Peter: Because we have guns? Anthony: You could be right.

Graham: [on the phone] Mom, I can't talk right now, I'm having sex with a white woman.

Vaughan: [speaking into microphone] I myself shall play the role of Dean's racing mechanic Rolf Voudrich, sent over from the Porsche factory in Zuffenhausen, Germany. Now, this mechanic was himself fated to die in a car crash in Germany 26 years later.

James Ballard: After being bombarded endlessly by road safety propaganda, almost a relief to have found myself in an actual accident.

Colin Seagrave: I want really big tits, out to here, so the audience can see 'em get all cut up and crushed on the dashboard.

James Ballard: You should've gone to the funeral. Catherine Ballard: I wish I had. They bury the dead so quickly. They should leave them lying around for months.

James Ballard: You had sex with all those men in cars? Only in cars? Helen Remington: Yes. I didn't plan it that way. James Ballard: Did you fantasize that Vaughan was photographing all these sex acts as though they were traffic accidents? Helen Remington: Yes. They felt like traffic accidents.

Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the people who have the most live the longest.
Larry Lorenzoni

I do not so much write a book as sit up with it, as with a dying friend.
Annie Dillard

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.
Plautus

Every human being must find his own way to cope with severe loss, and the only job of a true friend is to facilitate whatever method he chooses.
Caleb Carr

How rare and wonderful is that flash of a moment when we realize we have discovered a friend.
