Marek Quotes in Timeline (2003)

Marek: Are you, uh... married?

Lady Claire: No. We've been fighting the English since before I was born. There's no time for marriage.

Marek: Of course. Are you, uh... with... anyone?

Lady Claire: Am I with anyone?

Marek: Yeah.

Lady Claire: I'm with you.

Marek: I know, I know. What I mean is, is there, is there someone, is there someone... that you see?

Lady Claire: Do I see?

Marek: Yeah.

Lady Claire: [Looks around] Uh, nobody... It is possible they are hiding on the shore or... in the woods. They could be anywhere.

Marek: We're speaking the same language, but you don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?

Lady Claire: No.

Marek: Go! Get the hell out of here!

Chris Johnston: No, let's go home! Come on!

Marek: [Marek looks at Lady Claire]

Marek: I am home, Chris.

Marek: [Marek looks again at Lady Claire]

Marek: Chris, just go. Say goodbye for me.

Chris Johnston: I'm gonna miss you, Marek.

Marek: I just delivered her to the French for safekeeping. *How* did the English get her?

Professor Johnston: It's history.

Marek: Then history will change

Lady Claire: [Interpreting for Marek] He is very grateful you returned his sister.

Lord Arnaut: [Picks up his sword threateningly at Marek] You're English!

Marek: [Hurriedly] No, I'm Scottish.

Lady Claire: Arnaut, he saved the life of one of your men.

Lord Arnaut: You're Scottish, huh?

Marek: Yes.

Lord Arnaut: In that case, I do not know how to express my gratitude.

Marek: So how does it feel being passed over for 600-year-old ruins?

Chris Johnston: It sucks. It sucks big time.

Marek: [after De Kere cuts his ear, he realizes he's the one in the sarcophagus] It's me! IT'S ME!

Chris Johnston: [grabs Marek's sword] Man, do you love this stuff.

Marek: It's a habit I can't quite kick.

Marek: [takes sword from Chris] Here, let me take that thing from you before you cut something off you'll need later on.

Robert Doniger: Yeah, yeah, look. We need cultural experts, not scientists. My people simply don't know about the medieval world, or how to mingle with the locals, which is what we're gonna have to do, if we're going to find the professor and bring him back.

Marek: So that's it? We just step on that machine and wiz back to 1357?

Marek: ...that's not funny

[he suddenly decapites his opponent]

Marek: HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! Now, that's funny!

Marek: Now, anyone who would like to disagree with me, would you please raise your right hand.

[Looks around]

Marek: If you've got one.

Marek: First prize is a chance to live, second prize... you really don't want to hear what the second prize is.

Marek: I could use a man like you! A position on my staff, perhaps...

[gestures at the body]

Marek: we appear to have an opening!

Marek: I have removed all the heads of state...

[Dumps out sack full of decapitated remains]

Marek: ...I really want to be in charge!

Ralph: [Licks knife, uses it to smash a statute, then screams threatening] AAAAHHHHH!

Robbins: [Hurls knife into 'Ralph's' chest, killing him instantly. The mob is shocked into silence for several seconds]

Marek: That's extraordinary. It's not EXACTLY what we had in mind, but...

[laughs]

Marek: Extraordinary!

Marek: I could use a man like you! A position on my staff, perhaps?

[gestures at Ralph's body]

Marek: we appear to have an opening! Think about it! Your own room, full run of the place, free meals: anyone you can catch, kill and eat!

Robbins: [sarcastic] How's your health plan?

Marek: Eh, well it's not really necessary, is it? I mean the average life-expectancy around here is, what? Six months?

[leans in to Robbins' face]

Marek: I've been here seven years.

Marek: Isn't this wonderful? Two hundred deluxe rooms, heated outdoor pool, and a staff of caring professionals.

[pauses]

Marek: I'm sorry, I'm being rude! My name is Walter Marek, I'm your resident director. Welcome to vacation paradise!

Robbins: I hope you take plastic.

Marek: We most certainly do! We elicit all forms of payment here. Now, I've taken the liberty of scheduling a stimulating variety of activities for you here.

Robbins: [bored] Shuffleboard?

Marek: Water sports!

[shoves Robbins over the edge into a net]

Marek: Now because our activites are so rigoruous, we're very selective about our clientele. So... just to get that ol' heart pumping, we thought: five minutes in the pool with Ralph!

[gestures to huge, menacing thug]

Marek: Our director of aquatic activities!

Man: Nobody's supposed to die! You said that nobody's supposed to die.

Marek: I lied.

[shoots him]

Marek: [pointing gun] You know, if you don't give me my money, I am going to kill you.

Nate: I know.

Marek: So, what are you doing?

Nate: Fixing the screen door.

Robyn: Don't you fucking move!

[holds out a lighter at the money]

Marek: Easy... you got nowhere left to run...

[Robyn drops the lighter on the money]

Marek: NOOO!

Marek: I will not lose to this guy.
