Regan : What
an excellent day for an exorcism.
Father Karras : You would
like that?
Regan : Intensely.
Father
Karras : But wouldn't that drive you out of Regan?
Regan
: It would bring us together.
Father Karras : You and Regan?
Regan : You and us.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Father Karras : If you're the Devil, why don't you make the straps disappear?
Regan :
That's much too vulgar a display of power, Karras.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Regan : Your mother sucks cocks
in Hell, Karras, you faithless slime.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Father Merrin : Especially important is the warning to avoid conversations with the demon. We may ask what is
relevant but anything beyond that is dangerous. He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will
mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psycological, Damien, and powerful. So don't listen to him. Remember that
- do not listen.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Regan : You can bring Mr. Dennings if you like... Well, you like him... You're gonna marry him, aren't you?
Chris MacNeil : Oh God, are you kidding me? Marry Burke Dennings. Don't be silly. Of course not.
Where'd you ever get an idea like that?
Regan : But ya like
him.
Chris MacNeil : Of course I like him. I like pizzas too, but I'm not gonna marry
one.
Regan : You don't like him like Daddy?
Chris MacNeil
: Regan. I love your Daddy. I'll always love your Daddy, honey. OK? Burke just comes around here a lot cause, well, he's
lonely. Don't got nothin' to do.
Regan : Well, I heard differently.
Chris
MacNeil: Oh you did. What did you hear? Huh?
Regan : I don't know. I just
thought.
Chris MacNeil : Well, you didn't think so good.
Regan
: How do you know?
Chris MacNeil : Cause Burke and I are just friends. OK? Really,
OK.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Psychiatrist : Is there someone inside you?
Regan : Sometimes.
Psychiatrist
: Who is it?
Regan : I don't know.
Psychiatrist
: Is it Captain Howdy?
Regan : I don't know.
Psychiatrist
: If I ask him to tell me, will you let him answer?
Regan : No.
Psychiatrist
: Why not?
Regan : I'm afraid
-----------------------------------------------
Dr. Klein : There is one outside chance for a cure. I think of it as shock treatment - as I said, it's a
very outside chance... Have you ever heard of exorcism? Well, it's a stylized ritual in which the rabbi or the priest try
to drive out the so-called invading spirit. It's been pretty much discarded these days except by the Catholics who keep it
in the closet as a sort of an embarrassment, but uh, it has worked. In fact, although not for the reasons they think, of course.
It's purely a force of suggestion. The victim's belief in possession is what helped cause it, so in that same way, a belief
in the power of exorcism can make it disappear.
Chris MacNeil : You're
telling me that I should take my daughter to a witch doctor? Is that it?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chris MacNeil
: You show me Regan's double, same face, same voice, everything. And I'd know it wasn't Regan. I'd know in my gut. Now, I
want you to tell me that you know for a fact that there's nothing wrong with my daughter, except in her mind. YOU TELL ME
FOR A FACT YOU KNOW AN EXORCISIM WOULDN'T DO ANY GOOD. YOU TELL ME THAT.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Burke Dennings : There seems to be an alien pubic hair in my gin. Never seen it before in my life! Have you?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regan : Hi, Mom.
Chris MacNeil : What did you do today?
Regan
: Um... stuff.
Chris MacNeil : What kind of stuff?
Regan
: Well, me and Sharon played a game in the backyard, and we had a picnic down by the river. Mom, you should have seen
this man came along on this beautiful grey horse. Wasn't it pretty?
Chris MacNeil :
Really, what kind was it a mare or gelding?
Regan : Think it was a gelding. It
was grey. Oh, it was so beautiful, the guy let me ride it all around. It was so nice. Oh, I loved it. Oh, Mom can't we get
a horse?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Regan :
You're gonna die up there.
