Quotes17

  • John Trent: This shit really sells doesn't it?
  • Linda Styles: More than you'd think. Surprised?
  • John Trent: Lady, nothing surprises me anymore. We fucked up the air, the water, we fucked up each other. Why don't we just finish the job by flushing our brains down the toilet?
  • John Trent: [On hearing "It's Only Just Begun" playing while in his asylum cell] Oh, no, not The Carpenters...
  • John Trent: Like the book?
  • Teen: I love it.
  • John Trent: Good. Then this shouldn't come as a surprise.
  • Scrawny Teen: I can see.
  • John Trent: Excuse me?
  • Scrawny Teen: He sees you.
  • John Trent: Great, uh... tell him I say hi.
  • John Trent: God's not supposed to be a hack horror writer.
  • John Trent: Every species can smell its own extinction. The last ones left won't have a pretty time with it. In ten years, maybe less, the human race will just be a bedtime story for their children. A myth, nothing more.
  • John Trent: I'm not insane, you hear me! I'M NOT INSANE!
  • Inmate 1: I'm not if he's not!
  • Inmate 2: Me neither!
  • John Trent: I'm sorry about the balls! It was a lucky shot, that's all!
  • John Trent: A word of advice. You want to pull a scam, don't make your wife a partner. And if you do, don't fuck around behind her back.
  • John Trent: Never, Never, Never... throw chips at a driver.
  • John Trent: You're waiting to hear about my 'them', aren't you?
  • Dr. Wrenn: Your what?
  • John Trent: My 'them'. Every paranoid schizophrenic has one; a 'them', a 'they', an 'it'. And you want to hear about my 'them', don't you?
  • Dr. Wrenn: I want to know how you got here.
  • John Trent: Things are turning to shit out there, aren't they?
  • John Trent: This is a rotten way to end it.
  • Sutter Cane: This is not the ending. You haven't read it yet.
  • John Trent: This book is going to drive people absolutely mad!
  • Jackson Harglow: Well, let's hope so. The movie comes out next month.
  • John Trent: Lady, nothing surprises me. We fucked up the air, the water, we've fucked up each other. Why don't we finish the job by flushing our brains down the toilet?
  • John Trent: Your books SUCK!
  • Linda Styles: Why don't you try reading his stuff? See if you can get it.
  • John Trent: Got any on tape?
  • John Trent: Oh, Jesus, this place makes my head hurt.
