Quotes
-
James Cole : You came.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : I had to see if you were real.
James Cole : Here I am.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Here you are. You know, you're late.
James Cole : It's not an exact science.
-
James Cole : I had him. Why'd you stop me?
Dr. Cassandra Railly : I told you, you can't just kill someone.
James Cole : He's already dead! Don't you understand that? Everybody is already dead. You are already dead because of him! 7 billion people dead. I had a chance to stop him.
-
Dr. Cassandra Railly : What's your name? You know mine already.
James Cole : Cole.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : All right... Cole, let's talk about this.
James Cole : Nothing to talk about. You don't know who Leland Frost is. That means they sent me back too early.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : What do you mean "too early"?
James Cole : Too far back in the past.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : This is the present.
James Cole : No, this is the past. 2043 is the present.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : You think you're from the future. Okay, why did they send you back in time, Cole?
James Cole : About four years from now, most of the human race is gonna be wiped out by a plague, a virus, that it's because of a man named Leland Frost. I have to find him.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : You saw my lecture. Okay, listen to me, Cole. I know you really believe these things, but they're not real.
James Cole : [shows her a watch] I'm not crazy. I'm not crazy.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : That's just like mine.
James Cole : It's not just like yours. This is your watch... from my time, your future. This is your watch.
-
James Cole : How long was I out?
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Almost three days.
James Cole : What?
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Whoa, no, whoa, hold on. You're not exactly 100% yet.
James Cole : Ugh.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Although you do heal fast, like, unusually fast. You're lucky. The bullet passed clean through. You know, the one you took before you... disappeared.
James Cole : Splintered.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Is that what you call it?
James Cole : That's what they call it. You believe me now. You don't think I'm crazy?
Dr. Cassandra Railly : No crazier than I am. I mean, I just sewed up a bullet wound I saw you get two years ago. I don't know what I believe, but... you're here.
James Cole : Okay. All right, we got to move.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : W-whoa, hold on. Cole, you've just been shot. Your body has been traumatized. You need time to recover.
James Cole : No, no, no. I don't have time.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : But I just need a second here.
James Cole : We got to go. No, no, no, we don't have a second! We have to...
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Stop! You have no idea what the last two years have been for me. It's been three days for you, but it's been years for me.
James Cole : Listen, Dr. Railly...
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Yeah, it's not really doctor anymore. It's kind of hard to keep your practice when everyone thinks you're a lunatic. Now, you asked me to be here, and I am... but I have a lot of goddamn questions.
James Cole : You're right. It's been a long time for you. You deserve some answers.
-
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Hey, we need to come up with a game plan for when we find Leland Goines.
James Cole : We find him, I kill him. That's it.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : No! No, you can't just walk in there and murder someone.
James Cole : 1 for 7 billion? That math works for me.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : That might not solve the problem. Whatever this guy's done to create this plague might already be under way. No, let's say you stop him, how will you know if the future is changed?
James Cole : Oh, we'll know. I'll be erased.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : You mean you'll... You're gonna die?
James Cole : No, it's... It's not death. It's something else. It's... this me will never have been from that moment forward. It's complicated. It's okay - I knew this was a one-way trip coming in.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : And then what about the future?
James Cole : It'll be rewritten into something better. Plague will never have happened. My time will be gone. Trust me, there's nothing there worth saving.
-
Dr. Cassandra Railly : You look good.
James Cole : Thanks. You, uh... You look like the women we used to see in old magazines.
Dr. Cassandra Railly : Which magazines?
James Cole : I mean, uh... you look... clean.
-
Dr. Cassandra Railly : What just happened?
James Cole : Something comes back in time, comes in contact with itself, Mother Nature doesn't like it when you rearrange her furniture.
-
Leland Goines : You can't kill me, Cole... 'cause that would you'd... you'd have no reason to come for me in the first place.
[Cole guns him down]
Dr. Cassandra Railly : He's dead. But you're still here.
James Cole : No. No, no. That doesn't make any sense. That doesn't make any sense. He...
[shouts at Goines]
James Cole : How is that possible?
[in a calmer tone]
James Cole : How is that possible?
