Too Tired to Die (1998)

Mira Sorvino: Death, Jean

Quotes 

• Death : He said that you stopped him for no reason.

  Kenji : No reason? No, I saw him in my dreams. And you... Who are you?

  Death : I... I am...

  Young Arab : Chukhram.

  Death : He also wants to thank you.

  Kenji : Thank me? For what?

  Death : He's been running all his life. He must have been tired. We must go.

  Kenji : Wait wait wait. I don't get it, okay?

  Death : [smirking]  How do you want me to disappear?

  Kenji : What?

  Death : Never mind. I'll see you.

  [gives Kenji a kiss on the cheek] 

• White Soldier : You okay, madame?

  Death : Me?

  White Soldier : Something bothering you?

  Death : You know why I like young people?

  White Soldier : Because they're young?

  Death : Because it's such a challenge. There's such a strong will to resist me. I mean some of them pretend I don't even exist for them. So I wait patiently for time to pass. Usually they give in and embrace me.

  White Soldier : Unless there's a war or a plague or something.

  Death : Exactly. Still I feel heartbroken taking away the young ones. I mean, they make such beautiful plans for their lives you know? They're always asking me, who gets to decide who stays longer and who has to go, but... that's not my business.

  White Soldier : Wow... touching. You're not the heartless bitch I thought you were.

• Kenji : [is awoken by Death]  No...

  Death : Yes.

  Kenji : So this is it. You're here finally for me now.

  Death : You know who I am? You're not afraid of me?

  Kenji : Can you come back a little later? I need some more sleep.

• Death : I came here to tell you that I've got to pick you up tonight.

  Kenji : Tonight...

  Death : Nine p.m. sharp.

• Death : Don't even think of trying to escape me, that is a game you will never win. So just enjoy it while you can. I didn't have to do this. I mean I could have just have come tonight to pick you up, nine pm, and you would have been really sorry for yourself because you wouldn't be able to do anything. By telling you now it's as though I've given you 12 free hours. So go out and live a little. Do whatever you've always wanted to do, because it's not gonna come back.

  [kisses Kenji on the lips] 

  Death : I'll see you tonight.
