Jurassic Park Quotes

Ray Arnold Hold on to your butts.

Robert Muldoon Dammit, even Nedry knew better than to mess with the raptor fences!

John Hammond Dennis, our lives are in your hands, and you have Butterfingers?!

Dr. Alan Grant Now try to imagine yourself in the Cretaceous Period. You get your first look at this "six foot turkey" as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like ]; he'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not ]. You stare at him…and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side. From the other two raptors…you didn't even know were there. Because Velociraptors a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this: a six-inch retractable claw, like a razor, on the middle toe. He doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion, oh no…he slashes at you here or here… or maybe across the belly, spilling your intestines. The point is, you are alive when they start to eat you. So, you know…try to show a little respect.

Dr. Alan Grant Uh…it's…it's a dinosaur!

Robert Muldoon Clever girl.

Ian Malcolm John, the kind of control you're attempting simply is…it's not possible. If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it's that life will not be contained.

Ian Malcolm That is one big pile of shit.

Ian Malcolm I'm simply saying that life, uh…finds a way.

Dr. Alan Grant The world has just changed so radically, and we're all running to catch up. I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look… Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution, have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?

Dr. Alan Grant ] doesn't want to be fed. He wants to hunt. Can't just suppress 65 million years of gut instinct.

John Hammond Doctor Grant, my dear Doctor Sattler, welcome...to Jurassic Park.

Robert Muldoon They should all be destroyed.

Ian Malcolm What have they got in there, ]?

Dr. Alan Grant Hammond, after some consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park.

Ian Malcolm Must go faster…

Dennis Nedry Don't get cheap on me, Dodgson. That was Hammond's mistake.

Lex Murphy It's a UNIX system, I know this!

Dr. Alan Grant They're moving in herds. They do move in herds.

Ian Malcolm Now, eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your, on your dinosaur tour, right? Hello?
