Memorable quotes for

I Am Legend (2007)


Neville: Day one thousand and one. We came in close contact with a hive today. Blood tests confirm that I remain immune to both the airborne and contact strains. Canines remain immune to airborne strain only. The vaccine trials continue. I'm still unable to transfer my immunity to infected hosts. The Krippen Virus is... elegant.

Neville: Just fishin' in the dark, son.

[after a long pause, going back to his train of thought]

Neville: Behavioral note - an infected male exposed himself to sunlight today. Now it's possible decreased brain function or growing scarcity of food is causing them to... ignore their basic survival instincts. Social de-evolution appears complete. Typical human behavior is now entirely absent.

Chechaquo

http://www.online-literature.com/short.php/101

But all this--the mysterious, far-reaching hairline trail, the absence of sun from the sky, the tremendous cold, and the strangeness and weirdness of it all--made no impression on the man. It was not because he was long used to it. He was a new-comer in the land, a chechaquo, and this was his first winter. The trouble with him was that he was without imagination. He was quick and alert in the things of life, but only in the things, and not in the significances. Fifty degrees below zero meant eighty odd degrees of frost. Such fact impressed him as being cold and uncomfortable, and that was all. It did not lead him to meditate upon his frailty as a creature of temperature, and upon man's frailty in general, able only to live within certain narrow limits of heat and cold; and from there on it did not lead him to the conjectural field of immortality and man's place in the universe. Fifty degrees below zero stood for a bite of frost that hurt and that must be guarded against by the use of mittens, ear-flaps, warm moccasins, and thick socks. Fifty degrees below zero was to him just precisely fifty degrees below zero. That there should be anything more to it than that was a thought that never entered his head.

Neville: Eat your vegetables. Don't just push 'em around, eat 'em. I ain't playin'!

Dr. Helen Benson: So, pompejana, Thiobacillus, Deinococcus - which of these three would most likely survive in the extreme environment of the Jupiter moon Callisto, and why? Tom, can you get the lights, please? That's your lab report question for this week and it's due in my box by midnight on Friday. That's all for today. Thank you.

Tom: So, are coming to the faculty conference tonight?

Dr. Helen Benson: And listen to Dean Stoff lecture about how the universe is like a beautiful woman? Think I'll pass.

Tom: Come on. It'll be fun. I could pick you up.

Dr. Helen Benson: Um, I can't. I have to get back to my own extreme environment. But thank you. See you tomorrow.

Tom: Yeah.

Dr. Helen Benson: We've had pizza twice this week so I made you a proper meal tonight with vegetables.

I didn't think so.

Razor.

Ah, that's your new

:12:46
Excellent name, skipper.

I wrote earlier about my game to shake off the people following me. I found it somewhat humorous but slightly annoying when I saw a car commercial with a real celebrity (reminds me of Shelley's Among the stars that have a different birth by virtue of them knowing why people are following them) racing away from paparazzi while he is also taking pictures of them with his camera.


To the Moon
by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Art thou pale for weariness
Of climbing heaven and gazing on the earth,
Wandering companionless
Among the stars that have a different birth, -
And ever changing, like a joyless eye
That finds no object worth its constancy?

DURAN DURAN LYRICS

"Wild Boys"

The wild boys are calling
On their way back from the fire
In august moon's surrender to
A dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory
Reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail
Because there's murder by the roadside
In a sore afraid new world

They tried to break us,
Looks like they'll try again

Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine

You got sirens for a welcome
There's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while
You're dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory
Where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell
And lovers war with arrows over
Secrets they could tell

They tried to tame you
Looks like they'll try again

Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine

Something is there, something. It is like a shadow. Or something you glimpse in the corner of your eye. It is familar unfamilarity that appears then disappears.

In that movie Mission To Mars, there is that part where the second team arrive on Mars. The guy that survived for months there alone has lost it to some degree. The woman who lost her husband explains that extended periods of low-gravity can have that effect on the brain. As I write this, I almost feel like something is figuratively tugging at my mind. Anyway, if low-grav does have that effect, there needs to be a mechanism to help someone keep anchored in reality. Either by training them mentally or through artificial means of mind control. This adds weight to my hunch that I have some kind of device implanted in the back of my head. And it probably means it receives FM signals, although it could be any frequency, but FM would make more sense. Although it could be satellite too, really anything is possible without knowing the details. Although the possibilities are limited, I mean, this isn't Star Trek.

:34:02
Yes, Genesis! How can you be deaf
with ears like that?

:34:06
Genesis allowed is not!
It's planet forbidden!

Look, my backward friend. Genesis
may be planet forbidden, but I'm...

:34:18
Sir, I'm sorry. You don't want to be
discussing this subject in public.

:34:23
I'll discuss what I like!
And who in the hell are you?!

:34:26
Would you like
a ride home, Dr McCoy?.

:34:28
If I wanted a ride home, would I
be trying to charter a space flight?

How in the hell
do you know who I am?

You're gonna get
a nice long rest, Doctor.
