Quote from Tommy

Tommy: Hey, look out the window.
[Harry screams as he looks outside and sees it's snowing]
Harry: They're here! They're here! Albino brain chiggers! Cover your ears!
Tommy: Harry! Harry! It's snow! Snow.
Harry: Oh.
Tommy: I learned it in science class. Come on outside with me and I'll show you how to write your name in it.

Quote from Sally

Sally: Oh, my God. It's covering everything. The whole town is being obliterated.

Quote from Leon

Leon: Uh okay, I know the term paper's late, but my car wouldn't st-
Sally: Who cares? You're alive. You're alive. Who are you?
Leon: Oh, I-I'm a student of Dr. Solomon's. My name's Leon.
Sally: I'm a sister of Dr. Solomon's. My name's Sally.
Leon: Yeah, I know. I saw you one day when you dropped off his lunch. And then you went to the dry cleaners, and then to the shoe repair place, and then the car wash. And then you went home and read a book by the window for three hours.
Sally: I remember that day.

Quote from Dick

Mary: Boy, it's really coming down now.
Dick: Poor, sweet, tiny Mary. You can drop the brave front. We're under attack. Pull over.
Mary: What?
Dick: I'm commandeering this car.
Mary: Oh no, you're not.
Dick: It's a full-scale invasion! I'll save you! [grabs the steering wheel]

Quote from Dick

Dick: Oh, are you getting the feeling back in your hands?
Mary: No.
Dick: Well, the walk wasn't too bad.
Mary: Oh, yeah, the last four miles just flew by. You plowed my car into a snow bank.
Dick: I know. And we thought it was going to fight back. Aren't we silly?
Mary: If anything is wrong with that car, I am holding you responsible.
Dick: Mary, we've got to stick together. The roads are closed. And look around. We're surrounded by Neanderthals. That's a fair assessment, isn't it, fellas?

Quote from Harry

Harry: You know, I don't know why I was so afraid of the snow. It's actually quite beautiful. Oh, and you know that slush down in the gutter? You call me crazy, but you put a little cherry syrup on that, you got yourself a cool, refreshing treat.

Quote from Harry

Man: Where are all the tapes?
Harry: Well, we had a big night, but fear not. We still got five copies of Johnny Mnemonic. If that's not your cup of tea, we've also got The Making of Johnny Mnemonic.
Man: How about adult movies?
Harry: We got Fat Frauleins. "A lusty romp through the cheese and sausage shops of communist east Berlin.
Man: Forget it. All right, give it to me.

Quote from Leon

Leon: So then Freddy Stivender beat the crap out of me. It was the talk of the school. I was so embarrassed. But after weeks of plotting, I got my revenge.
Sally: What did you do?
Leon: I had my mom tell his mom.
Sally: I like your tactics.
Leon: You know, it may just be the wine talking, but I'm beginning to think in a crazy world like this, you and me just might make sense. [goes to kiss Sally]
Sally: Hey, lights!
Leon: They'll be out again in a second... if there's a God in heaven.
Sally: People are outside shoveling snow. We're not the last people alive on Earth. Leon, now we don't have to sacrifice ourselves. Leon, you don't have to impregnate me!
Leon: Uh... oh, good.

Quote from Mary

Mary: Not to mention the ominous behavioral parallels between Australopithecus, Euralopithecus- Oh, this is stupid.
Dick: No! No, it's not. [diner customers murmur agreement]
Mary: So in accepting this award, I must pose the question, "Has our journey from primate to man finally concluded, or has it just begun?" Wonderful.
