[You scare people badly enough, you can get 'em to do anything They'll turn to whoever promises a solution]
Mrs. Carmody: [to Amanda] If you hit me again, if you dare, you'll be on your knees to me before this is through.
Bud Brown: It appears we may have a problem of some magnitude.
Brent Norton: [trying to start up chainsaw] Motherfucker! Aw, shit! Motherfucker! Cocksucker!
Myron: [looking into the mist] So... any boogeymen?
David Drayton: [screaming into the mist] Come on!
Amanda Dunfrey: You don't have much faith in humanity, do you?
Dan Miller: Ahhh! None whatsoever.
Irene: We had damage at the school, wouldn't you know. That's what we get for not fixing that roof when we should've. But with funds being cut every year... You'd think educating children would be more of a priority in this country. But you'd be wrong. Government's got better things to spend our money on. Like corporate handouts, and building bonds.
David Drayton: I'll call the studio when the phones get back up, see if they can extend my deadline.
Stephanie Drayton: What choice do they have?
David Drayton: You kiddin'? They could whip up some bad Photoshop poster in an afternoon. They do it all the time, two big heads.
Ollie: Morning, Mrs. Carmody.
Mrs. Carmody: [referring to the crowd] With lines like these, I don't know how good it is. But I guess we'll have to make do.
David Drayton: What do you know about this mist?
Wayne Jessup: I don't know, man, I've got nothing to do with it.
David Drayton: That's not what the MP said in the pharmacy before the spiders came out of his skin.
Stephanie Drayton: How did you two always manage to make me laugh?
David Drayton: You have incredibly low standards.
Stephanie Drayton: Mhm.
Dan Miller: Don't go out there! There's something in the mist!
[after Norm is dragged off into the mist]
Jim Grondin: [to David] How was I supposed to know what you meant? You should've said what you meant better!
Jim Grondin: We got you now, you sorry son of a bitch!
