Quotes 

• Ollie : As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?

• Ollie : [Ollie just fired 2 shots]  I killed her.

  David Drayton : Thank you Ollie.

  Ollie : I killed her. I wouldn't have done that if there had been any other way.

  David Drayton : That's why I said thank you.

• Ollie : [after David tries unsuccessfully to convince Brent of the danger outside]  Leave it alone, David. You can't convince some people there's a fire even when their hair is burning. Denial is a powerful thing.

• Bud Brown : For Christ's sake, Ollie. You want me to report you? You want to lose your job? Look, I'm gonna be taking down names, starting with you. And I am prepared to file a police report.

  Ollie : Fine, write down your names.

  Bud Brown : I will.

  Ollie : And in the mean time, shut the fuck up and listen.

• Ollie : Those of you who aren't local should know that Mrs. Carmody is known in town for being unstable.

  Biker : No shit. What was your first clue?

• Ollie : [Mrs. Carmody is preaching to her 'cult' and they're repeating expiation]  Welcome to Sesame Street, kids. Today's word is 'expiation'.

• Ollie : We gotta discuss how we're going to stop that thing from getting in here.

  Myron : What do you mean getting in? We shut the loading door.

  Ollie : Yeah, but the entire front of the store is plate glass.

• Ollie : We have to tell them. The people in the market. We have to stop them from going outside.

  David Drayton : They won't believe us.

  Ollie : They have to.

  David Drayton : I'm not sure I believe it, and I was here. What we saw was impossible. You know that, don't you? What do we say? How do we... convince them? Ollie, what the hell were those tentacles even attached to?

• Ollie : Morning, Mrs. Carmody.

  Mrs. Carmody : [referring to the crowd]  With lines like these, I don't know how good it is. But I guess we'll have to make do.
