Quotes 

• Qwerty : Don't be shy now. You can come closer. Unsettling I know, your pet beta fish chatting you up. But time's money, Elliot.

  Elliot : You need something? Your water, does it need changing?

  Qwerty : When you live in a fishbowl, ain't no such thing as change. My entire life's been spent in this thing, my whole world's on your side table. I look around. Same shit, different day. The lighting, the furniture, even the sounds. Always the same. I'm on a loop. And it won't stop unless my life does. I'm exhausted with this world.

  Elliot : What can I do? I wanna help.

  Qwerty : I think it's pretty obvious. There's really only one thing you can do for a brother in a fish bowl.

  Elliot : What is it?

  Qwerty : Move him to a god damn window!

• Elliot : Daemons. They don't stop working. They are always active. They seduce. They manipulate. They own us. And even though you're with me, even though i created you, it makes no difference. We all must deal with them alone. The best we can hope for... The only silver lining in all of this... is that when we break through, we find a few familliar faces waiting on the other side.

• Elliot : There's a saying. The devil's at his strongest when we're looking the other way, like a program running in the background silently, while we're busy doing other shit. Daemons, they call them. They perform action without user interaction. Monitoring, logging, notifications. Primal urges, repressed memories, unconscious habits. They're always there, always active. We can try to make a difference, but it's all bullshit. 'Cause intentions are irrelevant. They don't drive us. Daemons do. And me? I've got more than most.

• [as narrator] 

  Elliot : I know I slipped, but I'm about to change the world. I'm about to change the world.
