The Exorcist III

Father Kanavan: [makes the Sign of the Cross] May the Lord be in your heart to confess your sins. Yes? Penitent: I have a... a... scrupulous conscience, Father. This need to... confess... so many things. If I... step on... two straws on the shape of the Cross, I feel that I have to confess it. It torments me. Father Kanavan: Try and make a good confession, and remember, Christ forgives all our sins. Penitent: Only little things. Nothing. Seventeen of them, Father. The first was that waitress in Candlestick Park. I cut her throat and watched her bleed. She bled a great deal. It's a problem I'm working on, Father. All this bleeding.

University President: Joey... What did you say that offended Tom Lowery? He's our biggest benefactor. Father Dyer: Oh, he is? University President: What did you say to him? Father Dyer: "Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an asshole."

Mrs. Clelia: My radio. Aren't you going to fix it? Nothing ever gets fixed round here. Just a whole bunch of pies and anchovies. Go away. I don't ever talk to strangers. Kinderman: I'm the radio repairman, Mrs. Clelia. Mrs. Clelia: Well then, fix it. Kinderman: What's wrong with it? Mrs. Clelia: Dead people talking. It's right here. Do you see it? Kinderman: Yes. I see it. Mrs. Clelia: I just knew you weren't really a radio repairman. That's a telephone I'm holding.

Kinderman: The whole world is a homicide victim, Father. Would a God who is good invent something like that? Plainly speaking, it's a lousy idea. It's not popular. It's not a winner. Father Dyer: There you go, blaming God. Kinderman: Who should I blame? Phil Rizzuto? Father Dyer: You wouldn't want to live forever. Kinderman: Yes, I would. Father Dyer: No, you wouldn't. You'd get bored. Kinderman: I have hobbies. In the meantime, we have cancer and mongoloid babies and murderers, monsters prowling the planet, even prowling this neighborhood, Father... right now, while our children suffer... and our loved ones die, and your God goes waltzing blithely through the universe like some kind of cosmic Billie Burke. Father Dyer: Bill, it all works out right. Kinderman: When? Father Dyer: At the end of time. Kinderman: That soon? Father Dyer: No. We're going to be there. We're going to live forever, Bill. We're spirits. Kinderman: Oh, I would love to believe that.

Kinderman: I thought you told me nothing's really wrong with you. Father Dyer: There isn't, my brother Eddie had these same stupid symptoms for years. Kinderman: Your brother Eddie died at the age of 30. Father Dyer: So what? He got killed in Vietnam. Kinderman: There could have be some connection. Father Dyer: A connection? Kinderman: Are you sure this isn't serious, Joe? Father Dyer: Well, with Eddie, there was-- Kinderman: Will you shut up about Eddie?! Father Dyer: With my brother, it was nerves. Kinderman: You make a lot of people nervous. Father Dyer: Only sinners. Kinderman: EVERYBODY! Nurse Blaine: Is everything all right in here, guys? Kinderman: WE'RE FINE! Kinderman: [sighs] I'm just... tired. Father Dyer: Well, call the desk and book a room. Kinderman: I brought you a hamburger, father. Father Dyer: I'm not hungry. Kinderman: Eat half, it's from Clyde's. Father Dyer: Where'd the other half come from? Kinderman: Space, your native country. Nurse: [out in the hallway] WHO STU

Kinderman: Are you Damien Karras? Patient X: Aah, you haven't any medical records for him, have you? No tedious fingerprints?
