Jamie Campbell Bower: 11-12

Quotes 

• 2 : Aren't they splendid? Isn't this just the most wonderful thing?

  11-12 : They're buildings. Houses.

  2 : 11-12, you could not be more profoundly wrong. More Village means that our way of life is becoming the very consciousness of the universe. I exaggerate, of course, but only slightly. Oh, indulge me. Take it all in.

  [taking a deep breath] 

  2 : Ahh. This moment will be handed down through generations of our family. There will be generations of our family, won't there, 11-12?

  11-12 : Yes. I suppose.

  2 : [laughing]  Oh, dear. Oh, dear, 11-12. You're so earnest. Take a tip from your old man. Unbutton yourself. Enjoy life. Dance the night away with some darling girl.

• 6 : Been celebrating, 11-12?

  11-12 : I'm not 11-12. I'm only 2's son. That's all I'll ever be to anybody.

  6 : 313 told me about the pills. Is your mother dying?

  11-12 : I thought one day... maybe one day, she will come back. One day.

  6 : Come with us. Leave. Leave your father. Leave all of this.

  11-12 : The Village is best for me. I live here. This place is all I've got. Besides... I've got stuff to do. Only I'm not nearly drunk enough yet. I'd like to get on with finishing the job.

• 6 : [11-12 visits 909's grave]  Still come here?

  11-12 : What do you want from me, 6?

  6 : To kill someone you love because you love them. The Village does that to you. Don't you have to wonder what kind of place it is? I know you don't want to yet. That time is coming... when you'll wanna tell me, to give me the information. To get us all out of here. To get you out of here.

  11-12 : Does your mother care for you, 6? Mine does. I believe she does.

  6 : Only a mother can destroy every ounce of hope in you.
