Which character in "Equilibrium (2002)" said...

So you think you are a fan of "Equilibrium (2002)." Let's see how well you know it. Match the following lines with the characters that spoke them. Can you get them all right?

  1. Be careful, Preston. You're treading on my dreams.

  2. The Gun Kata. Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically predictable element. The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

  3. Mind the uniform, cleric. I plan to be wearing it for a long time... (moments before being killed by Preston)

  4. You ask him for it. (in response to the interrogator's question: "What, would you say, is the easiest way to get a weapon away from a Grammaton Cleric?")

  5. Prozium - The great nepenthe. Opiate of our masses. Glue of our great society. Salve and salvation, it has delivered us from pathos, from sorrow, the deepest chasms of melancholy and hate. With it, we anesthetize grief, annihilate jealousy, obliterate rage. Those sister impulses towards joy, love, and elation are anesthetized in stride, we accept as fair sacrifice. For we embrace Prozium in its unifying fullness and all that it has done to make us great.

  6. ...without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock ticking.

  7. [about Brandt] Take him to the Hall of Destruction for summary judgment and combustion.

  8. A nearly unforgivable lapse, Cleric. I trust you'll be more vigilant in the future.

  9. In the first years of the 21st century, a third World War broke out. Those of us who survived knew mankind could never survive a fourth; that our own volatile natures could simply no longer be risked. So we have created a new arm of the law: The Grammaton Cleric, whose sole task it is to seek out and eradicate the true source of man's inhumanity to man - his ability to feel.

  10. It's not the message that is important but our obedience to it.

  11. You really should learn to knock.

  12. Cleric, I can only hope one day to be as uncompromising as you.
