Contact quotes

  • Ellie Arroway: You're not real. None of this is real.

    Alien: [disguised as her father] That's my scientist.

    Ellie Arroway: [looking the beach around you] When I was unconscious, you downloaded my thoughts, my memories, even Pensacola.

    Alien: No, no tests...

    [alien disguised as her father holds Ellie's hand]

    Alien: you have your mother's hands... You're an interesting species, an interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams and such horrible nightmares. You fell so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we found that makes the emptiness bearable, each other.

    Alien: [he stands up] Now, you go home.

    Ellie Arroway: [she stands up] Home? But I have so many questions, do we get to come back?

    Alien: This was just a first step. In time you'll take another.

    Ellie Arroway: But other people need to see what I've seen, they need to see...

    Alien: This is the way it's been done for billions of years. Small moves, Ellie. Small moves.
