Movie Quote Quiz

Mason Parrish: You're supposed to be reputable scientists! Not two dorm kids freaking on Mexican mushrooms.

Eddie Jessup: I can't live with it Emily, the pain is unbearable.
Emily Jessup: We all live with it. That unbearable terror is what makes us such singular creatures. We hide from it, we succumb to it, mostly we defy it! We build fragile little structures to keep it out. We love, we raise families, we work, we make friends. We write poems.

Emily Jessup: Fight it, Eddie! You made it real. You can make it unreal. If you love me... If you love me, Eddie, fight IT.

Arthur Rosenberg: What we saw tonight was a physical phenomenon, an inexplicable physical phenomenon.

Arthur Rosenberg: The way I feel, I don't expect to go to sleep for a year. I'm on fucking fire.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning during the house gathering, the toilet seat is up while Arthur is gathering ice from a bag that is in the bathtub. We cut to a shot of Emily and then back to Arthur, where the toilet seat is down. (00:06:40)
