Timothy Treadwell:
Nobody friggin' knew that there are times when my life has been on the precipice of death!
Timothy Treadwell:
I'm sure gay people have problems, too.
Timothy Treadwell:
[
chasing fox friend who stole Tim's hat] ... If that hat's in the den, I'm gonna fuckin' explode.
Timothy Treadwell:
[
said after a long summer drought] I am the Lord's humble servant. I am Allah's disciple. I am the Floaty Thing's go-for boy. There has been a miracle here. There has been an absolute miracle. It has rained 1.65 inches of rain today!
Timothy Treadwell:
I will die for these animals, I will die for these animals, I will die for these animals.
Sam Egli:
That bear, I think, that day, decided that he had either had enough of Tim Treadwell or that something clicked in that bear's head that he thought 'Hey, you know, he might be good to eat.'
Himself, pilot:
[
singing along with song] Now the long horns are gone And the drovers are gone The Comanche's are gone And the outlaws are gone Now Quantro is gone Stan Watie is gone And the lion is gone And the Red Wolf is gone
Himself, pilot:
And Treadwell is gone...
Timothy Treadwell:
I've always wished I was gay, it would have been a lot easier. You know, it's just Bing! Bing! Bing! - gay guys, no problem. They go to restrooms and truck stops and perform sex, it's like so easy for them and stuff.
Werner Herzog:
And what haunts me, is that in all the faces of all the bears that Treadwell ever filmed, I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy. I see only the overwhelming indifference of nature. To me, there is no such thing as a secret world of the bears. And this blank stare speaks only of a half-bored interest in food. But for Timothy Treadwell, this bear was a friend, a savior.
Timothy Treadwell:
I'm in love with my animal friends. I'm in love with my animal friends! In love with my animal friends. I'm very, very troubled. It's very emotional. It's probably not cool even looking like this. I'm so in love with them, and they're so f-ed over, which so sucks.
Timothy Treadwell:
I want rain. I want, if there's a God, to kick some ass down here. Let's have some water! Jesus boy! Let's have some water! Christ man or Allah or Hindu floaty thing! Let's have some fucking water for these animals!
Timothy Treadwell:
Well, its now after two o'clock on October 4th and the tent has caved in due to the storm and I'm still here with my little teddy bear "Teddypher the bear" and I think the storm has actually gotten a little weaker, but in the course of it getting stronger, it crushed the wall in and dent some of the poles and you really can't do much about it, because once they get like that, they stay just kinda bunged in and you're screwed and all that.
Timothy Treadwell:
[
laughing] My tent crushed in and I love it. It's pathetic, but I love it.
Timothy Treadwell:
Oh my gosh! The bear, Miss Chocolate, has left me her poop! It's her crap! It was just in her butt and it's still warm! This is a gift from Miss Chocolate!
The coroner:
Here is Timothy's watch. I think you should have it.
Jewel Palovak:
Thank you. Oh my gosh! It's still ticking! It's like a circle! I can't believe it still ticks.
Werner Herzog:
I believe the common character of the universe is not harmony, but chaos, hostility, and murder.
David Letterman:
We're not going to open a newspaper one day and read about you being eaten by a bear, are we?
