Ashe Corven

  • Do you know what they call a gathering of crows, Curve? A murder. A murder of crows. Think about it.
  • [Picks up Kali holding her like a baby] Hush, little baby, shh, don't say a word. Daddy's gonna buy you a big black bird! [Throws her shattering a window and falling to street below hitting a vehicle]
  • [to the dying Curve] People used to put coins in the mouths of the dead. Do you know why? So they could pay the ferryman to take them across the river Styx. I want to thank you for showing me my pain, Curve. You made me what I am.
  • One crow, sorrow. Two crows, joy. Three crows, a letter! Four crows, a boy. [Flashback] Let him go. He's just a child. [Presence] Five crows, silver. Six crows, gold! Seven crows, a secret never to be told.
  • Time's up, Curve!
  • Nothing personal, sport.
  • [To Spider Monkey] I'll start with Nemo, and then work my way up the food chain.
  • Congratulations, Monkey! You just bought yourself a fighting chance!
  • You're wasting your breath Angelito. Nobody's up there... listening.
  • I'm all your nightmares rolled into one!

Sarah

edit
  • Life is just a dream on the way to death.
  • I believe there's a place where the restless souls wander. Burdened by the weight of their own sadness, they wait for a chance to set the wrong things right. Only then can they be reunited with the ones they love. Sometimes, a crow shows them the way. Because sometimes, love is stronger than death.
  • Lady Luck's a bitch.

Judah

edit
  • [Inserts hypodermic needle into Bassett] I said we all have our pleasures. Mine is the pain of others. [Injects Bassett]
  • Guess you were right, Bassett. That was a bad batch.
  • If you whip him, does he not bleed?
  • You're nothing now Ashe, not even a ghost!

Curve

edit
  • Nothing personal, sport. You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
  • [To Eric landing on a vehicle blowing out its windows, chasing him] Fuck you, bird-dick!

Kali

edit
  • Hush little baby, please don't cry. Kali's gonna give you eternal life.
  • Some people are just born victims.

Sybil

edit
  • Can you look destiny in the eye without flinching?

Danny

edit
  • If you give up now, we won't be together.

Spider Monkey

edit
  • [Flashback of Ashe and Danny's murder] Stop wasting your breath Angelito. There's nobody out there listening!
