Quotes

Paprika

Edit
Shared with you
  • [first lines]
  • Paprika: Time for the greatest show on earth!
  • Paprika: ...the Internet and dreams are similar. They're areas where the repressed conscious mind escapes.
  • Himuro Kei: The sun during midday will light up the dark night. Night dreams of day. Light dreams of darkness. But the ignorant sun will chase away the darkness... and burn the shadows, eventually burning itself! The shade of the tree with the flowers that bloom at night is where the residents of darkness rest. The people of daytime are not allowed!
  • [first lines]
  • Paprika: Time for the greatest show on earth!
  • Paprika: Don't you think dreams and the internet are similar? They're both areas where the repressed conscious mind vents.
  • Inui Sei-jiroh: Science is nothing but a piece of trash before a profound dream.
  • [last lines]
  • Detective Kogawa Toshimi: One ticket, please.
  • Tokita Kohsaku: An overweight spirit needs no diet!
  • Paprika: It seems you have quite a fondness for movies.
  • Detective Kogawa Toshimi: I don't really like movies all THAT much...
  • Tokita Kohsaku: I swallow everything.
  • Random Dolls: This is a foolish place to be... to inquire about the master of this dream. The conceit of the daytime residents is what the nighttime residents want. To come in carelessly is like a moth to a flame.
  • Dr. Atsuko Chiba: It's not outside that counts, but there's a limit to that too.
  • Paprika: Oedipus is the perfect look for a man completely controlled by the chairman!
  • Dr. Atsuko Chiba: Don't you understand that your irresponsibility costs lives? Of course not. Nothing could get through all that fat. And now what? "Isn't it wonderful"? "A mind for science"? Don't make me laugh. How can a mad scientist know what a human mind is? If you want to be the king of geeks with your bloated ego, then just keep up all this and indulge in your freakish masturbation!
  • Singer: [Mondegreen] She's a goner, she's a goner...
  • Detective Kogawa Toshimi: It's hard to build a case against a dream.
  • [Chiba arrives at work to find her colleague Dr. Tokita wedged inside a lift]
  • Tokita Kohsaku: I'm in a bind.
  • Chiba Atsuko: I can see that.
  • [She starts to pull him out]
  • Tokita Kohsaku: It's not that.
  • [Before she realizes he didn't mean he was in a literal bind, he nearly falls on top of her]
  • Tokita Kohsaku: It was a rush job, but I put an access function to it. Morals, responsibilities... I don't really get that adults' stuff. But let's talk it over again.
  • [He gives the comatose Himuro a sad, desperate smile]
  • Tokita Kohsaku: We're friends, right?
