Elijah Price: Now that we know who you are, I know who I am. I'm not a mistake. Elijah Price: They called me Mr. Glass. David Dunn: I'm gonna ask you a question, and it's going to sound a little weird, so just think about it. Do you remember me ever being sick? Audrey Dunn: I, I don't, I can't remember... David Dunn: No cold, no fever, no headache, isn't that a little weird? What do you think it means? Joseph Dunn: Do you think you could beat up Bruce Lee? David Dunn: No, Joseph. Joseph Dunn: Even if he wasn't allowed to kick, and you were really mad at him? Audrey Dunn: No shooting friends, Joseph! David Dunn: You should never do anything like this. You know that, right? Joseph Dunn: Yeah. David Dunn: What should you do if something bad happens? Joseph Dunn: Get Mom. Elijah Price: Why did you became a security guard? You could have become so many other things: "... start a chain of restaurants..." Comic Book Clerk: You'd better not be back there jerking off to the Japanese comics! Joseph Dunn: I thought maybe because you're my dad... I thought I might be like you... I'm not like you... David Dunn: You are like me. We can both get hurt. I'm just an ordinary man. Joseph Dunn: No, you're not... Why do you keep saying that? Elijah's Mother: They say this one has a surprise ending. Elijah Price: Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression on his face sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb. Elijah Price: One of us has made a gross error, and wasted the other person's valuable time. Elijah Price: You made that decision, and I find that very interesting. Now all I need is your credit card number. Elijah Price: It's hard for many people to believe that there are extraordinary things inside themselves, as well as others. I hope you can keep an open mind. Elijah Price: It's allright to be afraid, David, because this part won't be like a comic book. Real life doesn't fit into little boxes that were drawn for it. ER Doctor: And, to answer your question, there are two reasons why I'm looking at you like this. One because it seems in a few minutes you will officially be the only survivor of this train wreck, and two, because you didn't break one bone, you don't have a scratch on you. David Dunn: You killed all those people. Elijah Price: But I found you. So many sacrifices just to find you. Elijah Price: Are you ready for the truth? Elijah Price: [from trailer] Are you ready for the truth? Elijah Price: Can I tell you a secret? I'm going to be very, very sad if this doesn't work out the way I think. Elijah Price: [from deleted scene] Can I tell you a secret? I'm going to be very, very sad if this doesn't work out the way I think. David Dunn: [talking to Elijah on phone] I've never been sick, I've never been injured... what do I do now? Elijah Price: Go to a place where people are... you won't have to wait very long. Elijah Price: This is an art gallery, my friend, and this is a piece of art. Elijah Price: I have something called Osteogenesis Imperfecta. It's a genetic disorder. I don't make a particular protein very well and it makes my bones very low in density... very easy to break. Elijah Price: You know what the scariest thing is? To not know your place in this world. Priest: Are you a religious man, David? David Dunn: No. Priest: Good. Because I'm going to talk to you as a man, not as a man of God.
[pause] Priest: It was luck. David Dunn: Luck? Priest: Random. Without meaning. Three years ago, my brother was on an airplane that crashed on take-off from the airport. I prayed and prayed and eventually I was able to find meaning. It gave me peace. Then a few months later, an entire family from my parish burned to death in a hotel fire downtown. Do you remember the fire?
[David nods] Priest: Again I prayed, again I found meaning. Three days ago, my 12-year-old nephew got on that train with you. I'm sorry I can't react to your survival with the standard, "It was the hand of God. It was a miracle". I'm fresh out of those. David Dunn: The crystal on my watch looked like it had been smashed with a sledge hammer. Priest: My 12-year-old nephew's neck was broken... in four places. What's your point, David? You were chosen? I don't think so.
