Top Five non-war ? Tough, as I won't recall them all...


1. Equilibrium

"But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

"I assume you dream, Preston... ?"

"Be careful preston, you're treading on my dreams!"


2. The Matrix

"Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if
you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the
difference between the dream world and the real world?"

"You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is
expecting to wake up. Ironically, that's not far from the truth."

3. Contact

"You're an interesting species, an interesting mix. You're capable of such
beautiful dreams and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut
off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing
we've found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other."

"[Ellie challenges Palmer to prove the existence of God] Palmer Joss: Did
you love your father? Ellie Arroway: What? Palmer Joss: Your dad. Did you
love him? Ellie Arroway: Yes, very much. Palmer Joss: Prove it."

4. 12 Angry Men

"It's very hard to keep personal prejudice out of a thing like this. And no
matter where you run into it, prejudice obscures the truth. Well, I don't
think any real damage has been done here. Because I don't really know
what the truth is. No one ever will, I suppose. Nine of us now seem to feel
that the defendant is innocent, but we're just gambling on probabilities.
We may be wrong. We may be trying to return a guilty man to the
community. No one can really know. But we have a reasonable doubt, and
this is a safeguard which has enormous value to our system. No jury can
declare a man guilty unless it's SURE. We nine can't understand how you
three are still so sure. Maybe you can tell us."

5. Blade Runner

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the
shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the
Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die."

"I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved
life more than he ever had before. Not just his life, anybody's life, my life.
All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I
come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit
there and watch him die."
