Neo: Yeah. That sounds like a really good deal. But I got a better one. How about... I give you the finger... and you give me my phone call? Agent Smith: Mr. Anderson... you disappoint me. Neo: You can't scare me with this Gestapo crap. I know my rights. I want my phone call. Agent Smith: Tell me, Mr. Anderson... what good is

a phone call... if you're unable to speak?

Tank: We're supposed to start with these operation programs first. That's major boring shit. Let's do something a little more fun. How about... combat training. Neo: Ju jitsu? I'm gonna learn Ju jitsu. [Tank winks and loads the program] Neo: Holy shit! Tank: Hey Mikey, I think he likes it. How about some more?

Neo: Hell, yes. Hell yeah.

[Neo walks through a metal detector in the lobby and is approached by a security guard after it goes off] Security guard: Could you please remove any metallic items you may be carrying, keys, loose change... [Neo opens his trench coat to reveal dozens of guns underneath] Security guard: Holy shit! [Neo knocks the guard down and shoots the other guards]

Oracle: OK, now I'm supposed to say, "Hmm, that's interesting, but... " then you say... Neo: ..."but what?" Oracle: But... you already know what I'm going to tell you. Neo: I'm not The One. Oracle: Sorry, kid. You got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something. Neo: What?

Oracle: Your next life, maybe. Who knows? That's the way these things go.

Cypher: I know what you're thinking, 'cause right now I'm thinking the same thing. Actually, I've been thinking it ever since I got here: Why oh why didn't I take the BLUE pill?

Morpheus: Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.

Agent Smith: [Seeing the slide of Neo's gun is locked back on an empty magazine] You're empty. Neo: [Seeing Smith's gun is also empty] So are you.

Neo: What is happening to me? Morpheus: You are the One, Neo. You see, you may have spent the last few years looking for me, but I have spent my entire life looking for you.

Tank: Neo, this has to be done. Neo: Does it? I don't know. This can't be just coincidence. It can't be. Tank: What are you talking about? Neo: The Oracle. She told me this would happen. She told me that I would have to make a choice. Trinity: What choice? [Neo walks away] Trinity: What are

you doing? Neo: I'm going in. Trinity: No, you're not. Neo: I have to. Trinity: Neo, Morpheus sacrificed himself so we could get you out. There is no way you're going back in. Neo: Morpheus did what he did because he believes something I'm not. Trinity: What? Neo: I'm not

the one, Trinity. The Oracle hit me with that too. Trinity: No, you have to be. Neo: I'm sorry, I'm not. I'm just another guy. Trinity: No, Neo, that's not true. It can't be true. Neo: Why? [no response, Neo walks away again] Tank: Neo, this is loco. They've got Morpheus in a military-controlled building.

Even if you somehow got inside, those are agents holding him. Three of them. I want Morpheus back too but what you're talking about is suicide. Neo: I know that's what it looks like, but it's not. I can't explain to you why it's not. Morpheus believes in something and he was ready to give his life, I understand that now. That's why I have to go. Tank: Why?

Neo: Because I believe in something. Trinity: What? Neo: I believe I can bring him back.

Neo: What are you doing? Trinity: I'm going with you. Neo: No you're not. Trinity: No? Let me tell you what I believe. I believe that Morpheus means more to me than he does to you. I believe if you are really serious about rescuing him, you are going to need my help. And since I am the ranking officer on this ship, if you

don't like it... I believe you can go to hell. Because you're not going anywhere else. Tank, load us up.

Morpheus: We've survived by hiding from them, by running from them. But they are the gatekeepers. They are guarding all the doors, they are holding all the keys. Which means that sooner or later, someone is going to have to fight them. Neo: Someone? Morpheus: I've seen an agent punch through a concrete wall; men have emptied entire clips at

them and hit nothing but air; yet, their strength, and their speed, are still based in a world that is built on rules. Because of that, they will never be as strong, or as fast, as *you* can be.

[on the war that devastated the Real World] Morpheus: We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. At the time, they were dependent on solar power. It was believed they would be unable to survive without an energy source as abundant as the sun.

[Neo receives a cell phone in an overnight-mail envelope. As soon as he's holding it, it rings] Neo: Hello? Morpheus: Hello, Neo. Do you know who this is? Neo: Morpheus? Morpheus: Yes. I've been looking for you, Neo. I don't know if you're ready to see what I want to show you, but unfortunately, you and I have run out of

time. They're coming for you, Neo, and I don't know what they're going to do. Neo: Who's coming for me? Morpheus: Stand up and see for yourself. Neo: What, right now? Morpheus: Yes, now.

Cypher: Look into his eyes. Those big pretty eyes and tell me... Yes or no? [looks at Neo, tears slightly visible in her eyes] Trinity: Yes. Cypher: No! I don't believe it! Tank: Believe it or not, you piece of shit, you're still gonna burn!
