Herbert West:
"Meatball?"
Dan Cain:
"Just put your shoes on."
Dan Cain:
"So, West, what kind of medicine are you involved in?"
Herbert West:
"Death."
Herbert West:
"Don't expect it to tango. It has a broken back."
Dan Cain:
"What if we get caught?"
Herbert West:
"What'll they do? Embalm us?"
Dr. Carl Hill:
"And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen, the human brain."
Megan Halsey:
"Where's Rufus (the cat)? I haven't seen him since we got here."
Dan Cain:
"He was DEAD! (West) Was..."
Dan Cain:
"Why is he making that noise? (West) Birth is always painful."
Dan Cain:
"You haven't done this on...people...?"
Dan Cain:
"Well, you know Herbert. He's just a little cracked."
Dan Cain:
"I'm going to have to teach you a lesson, little girl."
Mace:
"You haven't got my lunch under there, do you? (Dan) Not unless you like meatball."
Mace:
"One good thing about working down here. Nobody wants in, and ain't nobody getting out."
Herbert West:
"I've broken the 6 to 12 minute barrier! I've conquered brain death!"
Herbert West:
"It's really quite simple. All life is a chemical and physical process, correct? It stands to reason, then, that if one could find extremely fresh specimens and re-charge that chemical process, BANG, we'd have re-animation."
Herbert West:
"What did you want me to do? Leave you a message? Cat dead- details later?"
Herbert West:
"Frankly, Dr. Hill, your work on brain death is...outdated."
Herbert West:
"No, I did not (kill him), I GAVE HIM LIFE!"
Dr. Carl Hill:
"Mr. West, I suggest you get yourself a pen."
Dr. Carl Hill:
"I want your discovery, whatever it is that gives the appearance of life. (West) It isn't the appearance of life, it IS life."
