Outland (film) Quotes

Frances Sternhagen as Lazarus

• (Frances Sternhagen) "That's pretty good. Playing by yourself and losing. I'd join you in this dumb game if I could play sitting down. Yes, I'm well, thank you. Been pretty busy. Seems there's some kind of 'flu' going around. You have no idea the number of workers who are going to be sick this Sunday."

• (Frances Sternhagen) "Polydichloric euthimal. Those stupid bastards are taking polydichloric euthimal. It's an amphetamine. Strongest thing you ever saw. Makes you feel wonderful. Makes you do ten hours work in six hours, that kind of nonsense. Especially manual labor. It makes you work like a horse. The army tested it a few years ago. It made the men work alright -- then it made them psychotic. It takes a while, ten maybe eleven months -- and then it fries your brain."

• (Frances Sternhagen) "I was afraid you'd say something like that. Do you really think you're making a difference?"
• (Frances Sternhagen) "Then why for God's sake?"
• (Sean Connery) "-- because -- maybe they are right. They sent me here to this pile of s*** because they think I belong here. I want to find out if -- well if they're right. There's a whole machine that works because everybody does what they are supposed to. And I found out -- I was supposed to be something I didn't like. That's what's in the program. That's my rotten little part in the rotten machine. I don't like it. So I'm going to find out if they're right."

• (Frances Sternhagen) "You'd better be dying."

• (Sean Connery) "Are you Dr. Lazarus?"
