Sean Patrick Flanery: Jake Greyman

Quotes 

• Jake Greyman : [last lines - narration]  Let those with morals worry about morality. As for me, I'll just do what I always do. Only this time I'll do it my way.

  [pounces] 

• [first lines] 

  Maria : [possessed]  Look at the pretty man. Hello, pretty man. Are you here for your friend? I'm afraid you're too late to save him.

  Jake Greyman : I didn't come here to save him.

  Maria : Then perhaps you've come to play with me.

  Jake Greyman : I'm not here to wallow with pigs, either.

  Maria : Then you must die now...

• Maria : What are you?

  Jake Greyman : You know what I am... a lot better than I do.

• Jake Greyman : Gentlemen, I'm afraid this lady's very sick. I think it's a good idea if I just take her straight to the hospital.

  Guard : We'll take her to the hospital. She's our problem.

  Jake Greyman : Well, that's where you're wrong. I'm your problem.

  Guard : Listen, Abraham, or whoever you are, I'm not buying your cop bullshit, okay?

• Jake Greyman : The woman. Where is she?

  Guard : Go fuck yourself.

  Jake Greyman : She's very dangerous right now.

  Guard : I said go fuck yourself.

  [Jakes knocks him into a headstone and to the ground] 

  Jake Greyman : Now you listen to me. You gonna tell me what I wanna know or I will tear you to pieces. Then one of your cronies will tell me when he's done shittin' himself.

• Jake Greyman : [narration]  My name's Jacob Greyman. I'd like say most people call me Jake, but the truth is what most people call me isn't worth repeating. Not that I blame them. Nietzsche only had it half-right: he who fights monsters must become one himself, or be one to start with, otherwise you're just gonna get your ass kicked. That's the fundamental problem with trying to draw the line between good and evil. The real choice is between predator and prey, no matter which side of the line you want to side on. It may not be right, it may not be fair, but then again neither is life. All you gotta do is look around to see that

• Cardinal White : Father Patrick?

  Jake Greyman : He's dead.

  Cardinal White : He was a good man.

  Jake Greyman : He was a moron!

  Cardinal White : Why, for trying to save an innocent girl?

  Jake Greyman : For not realizing she's not an innocent girl any more.

  Cardinal White : All I'm asking is that you show a little respect for the dead...

  Jake Greyman : Why should I, they don't seem to show any for me.

• Jake Greyman : [to demon]  I have no rightful place in this world, and neither to you.

• Sister Sarah Ryan : Are you okay?

  Jake Greyman : It's always a matter of degree...

• Cardinal White : Now, you concentrate on finding the demon.

  Jake Greyman : Yeah, I'll put an ad in the paper.

• Jake Greyman : [after subduing body guard in cemetery]  You better get out of here before sunset, or I'll be the nicest guy you met all day.

• Sister Sarah Ryan : [Jake has just armed her with a gun and a crucifix]  This is insane...

  Jake Greyman : No, insanity is actually a legal term defining the inability to decipher right from wrong. In this situation I think everybody already knows what side they're on, okay?

• Jake Greyman : We all have a choice.

  Sister Sarah Ryan : No! They have a choice. Humans have a choice. If they didn't, we wouldn't exist.
