Beautiful Creatures Quotes
Ethan longs to escape his small Southern town. He meets a mysterious new girl, Lena. Together, they uncover dark secrets about their respective families, their history and their town.
Ethan Wate: Everybody has to deal with shit in their lives Lena. You want to be a normal human what do you think that is? We don't have powers to change anything anytime we want. Being human is feeling bad, it's feeling pissed off, it's feeling scared, it's you not being able to do anything about it until you don't feel that way anymore till you can just see your way out of it. And I yelled at you because I care about you, that's what normal people do who love each other! When one of them is acting like a brat! Now would you please stop raining on me!
Reverend Stephens: I don't want to preach today, instead I just wanna talk to you, about a word we don't hear much anymore. Sacrifice. It's not what I would call a modern word. People hear the word sacrifice, and they become afraid that something will be taken away from them or that they will have to give up something they couldn't live without. Sacrifice, to them, means loss in a world telling us we could have it all. But I believe true sacrifice is a victory. That's because it requires free will to give up something for someone you love, or something or someone you love more than yourself. I won't lie to you. It's a gamble. Sacrifice wont take away pain and loss, but it wins the battle against bitterness, the bitterness that dims the light on all of the true value in our lives.
Ethan Wate: No! I'm sick of listening to your family. I have been chased, spun, hypnotized, paralyzed, and damn near killed by your family. I have been going out of my mind for the past two weeks, then your mother shows up on my door step and damn near gives me a heart attack but you know what I don't care about them, about the curse, you are not going dark and you are not losing me! No matter what they do, no matter what they do to me, I'm still here.
Lena Duchannes: I could hear the sound. The sound was me breaking. I cried because he had lived, because he had died. I was shattered. I was saved. I only knew the girl I was, was gone. He was right. No good could come from loving a mortal. They can't survive our world. Get out, go Ethan. Claim yourself, in defiance, in hope, in love, in fury, in gratitude. Claim the light. Claim the dark, Claim it all. Nothing can stay.
Ethan Wate: [under Macon Ravenwood's spell] ... I'll get my teaching degree, and, and, probably teach at the high school... Or maybe I'll take over the library from Amma... I'll, I'll probably marry Emily Asher and we'll have two kids, but... I'll never make enough money for her, so I'll start drinkin'... Get three DUIs and lose my job, and uh, have an affair on and off with Savannah Snow 'til I'm 49; the kids will live with their mother after we divorce - then when I'm 52 I'll have my first heart attack; another one at 63. I'll move into an apartment above 'The Wayward Dog' bar and help them sweep up after hours for free drinks, and then when I'm 64, I'll hang myself... But they won't find the body right away, until I stink...
Macon Ravenwood: Well... You've got it all planned out! Good for you!
