Which character in "Hotel Rwanda" said...

So you think you are a fan of "Hotel Rwanda." 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. Politics is power Paul, Hutu power.

  2. There will be no rescue, no intervention force. We can only save ourselves. Many of you know influential people abroad, you must call these people. You must tell them what will happen to us... say goodbye. But when you say goodbye, say it as though you are reaching through the phone and holding their hand. Let them know that if they let go of that hand, you will die. We must shame them into sending help.

  3. We're here as peace keepers, not peace makers.

  4. Tatiana, all day I work to please this officer, diplomat, or some other guests to store up favors so if there is a time we need help I have powerful people I can call upon.

  5. Colonel Oliver: You should spit in my face. Paul: Excuse me, Colonel? Colonel Oliver: You're dirt. We think you're dirt, Paul. Paul: Who is we? Colonel Oliver: The West. All the super powers. Everything you believe in, Paul. They think you're dirt. They think you're dumb. You're worthless. Paul: I am afraid I don't understand what you are saying, sir. Colonel Oliver: Oh, come on, Paul, you're the smartest man here. You got 'em all eating out of your hands. You could own this frigging hotel, except for one thing. You're black. You're not even a nigger. You're an African. They're not going to stay, Paul. They're not going to stop this slaughter.

  6. [first lines, voiceover] When people ask me, good listeners, why do I hate all the Tutsi, I say, "Read our history." The Tutsi were collaborators for the Belgian colonists, they stole our Hutu land, they whipped us. Now they have come back, these Tutsi rebels. They are cockroaches. They are murderers. Rwanda is our Hutu land. We are the majority. They are a minority of traitors and invaders. We will squash this infestation. We will wipe out the RPF rebels. This is RTLM, Hutu power radio. Stay alert. Watch your neighbours.

  7. The United Nations are here now. The world press are watching. The peace has been signed. Let this process work.

  8. These days, I have not time for rallies or politics.
