• [Roy reveals his plan to weed out a few human beings] 

  Dr. Peter Wayne : That's... trying to play God. You just can't do that.

  Dr. Roy Clinton : Why not, if God's too busy. Who's to say that it's not his will, that we're not his agents?

• Dr. Roy Clinton : Peter, the watchman wasn't going to live forever, you know, so what difference does it make whether it's twenty minutes or twenty years, since neither amounts to the faintest echo of the tiniest whisper in the thunder of time?

• Dr. Roy Clinton : Now, then, if you'd care to sample this, I promise that you'll be charmed with its effect. You may find it slightly reminiscent of cucumbers in effect - a characteristic I'm unable to account for at the moment - but it's not bad at all. And, you'll also find that it will lead you into a world whose glory is magnificently beyond anything you've ever known.

  Dr. Peter Wayne : I don't want to. I don't want to do it.

  Dr. Roy Clinton : Well, you will next time, and you obviously must this time, since only that will make you an ally, and I can't let you go free as an enemy, can I?

  [Peter drinks] 

• Dr. Roy Clinton : You see I have an advantage over you. I don't bleed and you do.
