Ian Malcolm
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Oh, yeah. Oooh, ahhh, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming.
- Roland Tembo: Rex just fed, so he won't be hunting for a while.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Just fed? I assume you're talking about Eddie? You might show a little more respect, the man saved our lives by giving his.
- Roland Tembo: Then his troubles are over. My point is, predators don't hunt when they're not hungry.
- Nick Van Owen: No, only humans do.
- Roland Tembo: Oh, you're breaking our hearts! Saddle up, let's get this moveable feast under way!
- John Hammond: Don't worry, I'm not making the same mistakes again.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: No, you're making all new ones.
- [Eddie finds Ian, Sarah, and Nick trapped in a trailer hanging over a cliff]
- Eddie Carr: What do you need?
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Rope!
- Eddie Carr: Rope! What, anything else?
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, three double cheeseburgers with everything!
- Nick Van Owen: No onions on mine!
- Sarah Harding: And an apple turnover!
- [after re-capturing the baby T-Rex in San Diego]
- Sarah Harding: How do we find the adult?
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Just follow the screams.
- Sarah Harding: You know, I have made a career out of waiting for you.
- Kelly Malcolm: You know, Sarah does have a pretty good p...
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: It's so important to your future that you not finish that sentence.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: It's fine if you wanna put your name on something but STOP putting it on other people's headstones.
- [searching the island for Sarah]
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Sarah! Sarah!
- Nick Van Owen: Sarah Harding!
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: How many Sarahs you think are on this island? Sarah!
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: [to Hammond] So you went from capitalist to naturalist in just 4 years. That's something.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Why don't people listen to me? I use plain and simple English, I don't have any accent that I'm aware of...
- Sarah Harding: Oh, shut up.
- Ian Malcolm: Hey, when the adult sees us once again with his baby, uh, isn't he gonna be like, "You"? You know, there may be some, uh, angry recognition.
- Sarah Harding: Who knows? He may be just happy to see us.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: When you try to sound like Hammond, it just comes off like a hustle. I mean, it's not your fault. They say talent skips a generation. So, uh, hey, I'm sure your kids are gonna be sharp as tacks.
- Peter Ludlow: Hammond's reach exceeded his grasp. Mine does not.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Taking dinosaurs off this island is the worst idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas. And, uh, I'm gonna be there when you learn that.
- Eddie Carr: It's a high hide. A high hide. You know, you go up and hide, high. It goes up to where the trees are and keeps the researchers out of harm's way.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Actually, it would put them at very convenient biting height.
- Sarah Harding: I love you. I just don't - need you right now.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: I'll tell you what you *need*, a good anti-psychotic!
- Sarah Harding: I'll be back in five or six days.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: No, you'll be back in five or six *pieces*.
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: What are you talking about? Five years of work and a hundred miles of electrified fence couldn't prepare the other island. And you think that, what? A couple dozen Marlboro men were going to make a difference here?
- [When Sara's camera runs out of film and the baby dinosaur roars]
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: Oh, they get very angry when you run out of film.
- Sarah Harding: What's everybody looking at?
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: [spots the T-Rex transfer ship speeding towards the harbor]
- Dr. Ian Malcolm: We should've stayed in the damn car.
