The Book of Eli

[Seeing that Eli's Bible is actually in Braille] It can't be... it can't be... it's IMPOSSIBLE! IT CAN'T BE!

[Repeated line] Stay on the path. It's not your concern.

I know what I heard. I know what I hear. I know I'm not crazy.

[about his Bible] In all these years I've been carrying it and reading it every day... I got so caught up in keeping it safe that I forgot to live by what I learned from it.

[After shooting Eli] What did I tell you? He's just a man. [Kicks a wounded Eli down]

[To Eli] Where's your protection now?

I need that book. I want that book!

[Quoting scripture of Genesis 3:18] Cursed be the ground, for our sake. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth, for us, for out of the ground we were taken for the dust that we are... and to the dust we shall return.

[When Carnegie confronts him and demands he hand the Bible over to him] I always believed there was a place where this book belonged, where it was needed. But I haven't found it yet.

[about Eli] It's like he's protected somehow, like there's nothing that can touch him.

[To Eli] Have you ever thought that maybe you were lost?

[To Eli] I didn't think you would ever give up the book. I thought it was important to you.
