"Death is a disease, it's like any other. And there's a cure."

How about this one:
"The man likes to play chess; let's get him some rocks."
Extra kudos if you know the name of the character who said it, too.

I particularly liked the quote I used because it shows how arrogant we are in viewing death as a failure of science rather than a natural, inevitable thing. There seems to be a feeling that the right breakthrough in medicine or technology will allow us to finally conquer death.
I haven't seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (that's what you meant, right?) but it's on my list.
Originally posted by MimorSunshine came out in the theaters around the same time as The Fountain did, I think. I seem to remember seeing both within the same week. Sunshine is about this group of scientists who have to travel to the Sun in order to re-light it somehow. Neat show.

Originally posted by epiphinehasThat is "Shawshank Redemption", the line was said by "Red" (Ellis Redding). I think it was after Andy was discussing a deal with Captain Hadley about his gained money.

Later on Andy is beaten by the sisters; Red and company felt sorry and decided to get rocks so when Andy returned he could finish a chess set.

I think this is wrong. I did this for film study last year - so don't call me a freak. 😛

I'll take a stab at yours. Is it, V for Vendetta? I doubt that's it... Or that French chainsaw movie, the title of which escapes me... I doubt that's it either though...
I, for one, am stumped.

How about: "A building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. A symbol, in and of itself is powerless, but with enough people behind it, blowing up a building can change the world."
