Anna Crowe: It's getting cold.
Malcolm Crowe: That is one fine frame; one fine frame that is. How much...
[he sits down with a grunt]
Malcolm Crowe: ...does a fine frame like that cost, do you think?
Anna Crowe: I never told you, but you sound a little like Dr. Seuss when you're drunk.

Malcolm Crowe: Wanna play a game? It's a mind-reading game. Here's how it works. I read your mind. If what I say is right, you take one step towards the chair. If what I say is wrong, you take one step back... towards the doorway. If you reach the chair, you sit down. If you reach the door, you can go. Wanna play?
[Cole nods]
Malcolm Crowe: O.K... When your mother and father were first divorced, your mom went to see a doctor like me, and he didn't help her. So you think I'm not going to be able to help you.
[Cole takes a step forward]
Malcolm Crowe: You're worried that she said she told him things - things she couldn't tell anyone else... Secrets.
[Cole takes another step forwards]
Malcolm Crowe: You have a secret, but you don't want to tell me.
[Cole takes another step forwards]
Malcolm Crowe: [looking at Coles watch] Your dad gave you that watch as a present just before he went away.
[Cole takes a step back]
Cole Sear: He forgot it in a drawer. Doesn't work.
Malcolm Crowe: You keep pretty quiet in school, but... you're a good student, you've never really been in any serious trouble.
[Cole takes another step back]
Cole Sear: We were supposed to draw a picture. Anything we wanted. I drew a man. He got hurt in the neck por another man with a screwdriver.
Malcolm Crowe: You saw that on TV, Cole?
[Cole steps back again]
Cole Sear: Everyone got upset. They had a meeting. Mom started crying. I don't draw like that anymore.
Malcolm Crowe: How do you draw now?
Cole Sear: I draw... people smiling, cachorros running, rainbows. They don't have meetings about rainbows.
Malcolm Crowe: No. I guess they don't.
Cole Sear: What am I thinking now?
Malcolm Crowe: I don't know what you're thinking now.
[Cole takes his last step back towards the door]
Cole Sear: I was thinking... you're nice, but you can't help me.
[walks away]

Vincent Gray: Do you know why you're afraid when you're alone? I do. I do.

Cole Sear: Are you a good doctor?
Malcolm Crowe: Well... I used to be. I won an award once. From the Mayor. It had an expensive frame.
Cole Sear: I'm gonna see you again, right?
Malcolm Crowe: If that's okay with you.

Stanley Cunningham: Philadelphia is one of the oldest cities in this country. A lot of generations have lived here and died here. Almost any place you go in this city has a history and a story behind it. Even this school and the grounds it sits on. Can anyone guess what this building was used for a hundred years ago, before you went to this school, before I went to this school? Yes, Cole?
Cole Sear: They used to hang people here.
Stanley Cunningham: No, uh, that, mm-mm, that's not correct. Uh, where'd you hear that?
Cole Sear: They'd pull the people in, crying and beijar their families 'bye. People watching would spit at them.
Stanley Cunningham: Uh, Cole, this, this building was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some of the very first laws of this country. This whole building was full of, uh, lawyers, uh, lawmakers.
Cole Sear: They were the ones that hanged everybody.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: Tell me the story about why you're sad.
Malcolm Crowe: You think I'm sad?
[Cole nods]
Malcolm Crowe: What makes you think that?
Cole Sear: Your eyes told me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Malcolm Crowe: Once upon a time there was this person named Malcolm. He worked with children. He loved it. He loved it mais than anything else. And then one night, he found out that he made a mistake with one of them. He couldn't help that one. And he can't stop thinking about it, he can't forget. Ever since then, things have been different. He's not the same person that he used to be. And his wife doesn't like the person that he's become. They barely speak anymore, they're like strangers. And then one dia Malcolm meets this wonderful little boy, a really cool little boy. Reminds him a lot of the other one. And Malcolm decides to try and help this new boy. 'Cause he feels that if he can help this new boy, it would be like helping that other one too.

Malcolm Crowe: In your dreams?
[Cole shakes his head no]
Malcolm Crowe: While you're awake?
[Cole nods]
Malcolm Crowe: Dead people like, in graves? In coffins?
Cole Sear: Walking around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dead.
Malcolm Crowe: How often do you see them?
Cole Sear: All the time. They're everywhere.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: They see only what they want to see.

Cole Sear: [of his grandmother] She wanted me to tell you...
Lynn Sear: Cole, please stop...
Cole Sear: She wanted me to tell you she saw you dance. She said, when you were little, you and her had a fight, right before your dance recital. You thought she didn't come see you dance. She did. She hid in the back so you wouldn't see. She said you were like an angel. She said you came to the place where they buried her. Asked her a question? She said the answer is...”Every day." What did you ask?
Lynn Sear: Do... Do I make her proud?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: She came a long way to visit me, didn't she?
Malcolm Crowe: I guess she did.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: I walk this way to school with Tommy Tammisimo.
Malcolm Crowe: He your best buddy?
Cole Sear: He hates me.
Malcolm Crowe: Do you hate him?
Cole Sear: No.
Malcolm Crowe: Did your mom set that up?
Cole Sear: Yes.
Malcolm Crowe: Do you ever talk to your mom about how things are with Tommy?
Cole Sear: I don't tell her things.
Malcolm Crowe: Why not?
Cole Sear: Because she doesn't look at me like everybody else, and I don't want her to. I don't want her to know.
Malcolm Crowe: Know what?
Cole Sear: That I'm a freak.
Malcolm Crowe: Hey... you are not a freak. Okay? Don't you believe anybody that tries to convince you of that. That's bullshit! You don't have to go through your life believing that. Okay?
Cole Sear: You said the "s" word.
Malcolm Crowe: Yeah... I know. Sorry.

[Lynn looks up sharply]
Cole Sear: She says she's sorry for taking the bumblebee pendant. She just likes it a lot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lynn Sear: [when Cole comes to Lynn to ask to sleep in her bed] Look at my face; I'm not very mad.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lynn Sear: [at accident] Look at my face; I would never think that about you. Ever! Got it?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cole Sear: [unimpressed after Malcolm Crowe's magic trick with coin] I didn't know you were funny.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: De profundis clamo ad te, domine.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: You ever feel the prickly things on the back of your neck?
Malcolm Crowe: Yes.
Cole Sear: And the tiny hairs on your arm, you know when they stand up? That's them. When they get mad... it gets cold.

Cole Sear: Stop looking at me. I don't like people looking at me like that.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: Instead of something I want, can it be something I don't want?
Malcolm Crowe: Okay...
Cole Sear: I don't wanna be scared anymore.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cole Sear: I want to tell you my secret now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Malcolm Crowe: [after being shot por Vincent Gray] I think I'm okay really. I think it just went in and out. I... It doesn't even hurt anymore.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
