This
is a page of important quotes from the book.
'So the InGen story is entirely
untrue?' 'Entirely untrue,' Malcolm said, nodding gravely. 'Entirely
untrue.' (Pg. 12)
'Stop it! Stop it!' Levine
turned to Guitierrrez. 'Make them stop it!' But Guitierrez was not moving,
he was staring at the carcass. Consumed by flames, the toroso crackled
and the fat sputtered, and then as the skin burned away, the black,
flat ribs if the skeleton were reveled, swung up, surrounded by flames,
moving as the skin contracted. And inside the flames Levine sa a ling
pointed snout, and rows of sharp predatory teeth, and hollow eye sockets,
the whole thing burning like some medieval dragin rsing in flames up
to the sky. (Pg. 24)
'Battery,' Thorne said.
'It's going fast. Damn. Richard: where are you?' Over the speakerphone,
they heard Levine's voice: '-dead already-situation got-now-very-serious-don't
know-can hear me, but if you-get help-' 'Richard. Tell us where
you are!' (Pg. 63)
'The, uh, procomso-whatevers,'
Eddie said, over the radio. 'They're real, aren't they?' 'Oh yes,' Malcomlm
said softly. 'They're real.' (Pg. 112)
'Hey!' Eddie said. Malcolm
saw it, too. It was in the far corner of the room, a small blue box
halfway up the wall, cables running into it. It was obviosly some kind
of electrical junction box. Mounted on the box was a tiny red light.
It was glowing. (Pg. 139)
'My work is here,'Levine said.
He turned away, raised his binoculars to his eyes. 'So,' Eddie said.
'You don't want to come back?' 'Wouldn't dream of it,' Levine said,
staing through binoculars. 'Not in a million years. Not in sixty-five
million years.' (Pg. 229)
And then he felf the animal;s
hot breath on the back of his neck, and he head the snorting breath,
and his terror was extreme. Then suddenly a kind of lassitude, a deep
and welcome sleepiness, took him. Everything became slow. As if in a
dream, he could see all the blades of grass in the ground in front of
his face. He saw them with a kind of languid intensity, and he almost
did not mind the sharp pain on his neck, and he almost did not care
that his neck was within the animal's hot jaws. It seemed to be happening
to someone else. He was many miles away. He had a moment of surprise
when he felt the bones of his neck crunching loudly- And then blackness.
Nothing. (Pg. 270)
'Partial restabilization may
occur after eliminating destructive elements. Survial partly determined
by chance events.' Ian Malcolm (Pg 389) |
