- Jackson Spears: An eye for an eye; that's what it says in the Bible, right?
- Tess: You will not use the Good Book for your dirty work. God decides on rewards and punishments, not you.
- Jackson Spears: I have the gun. That makes me God.
- Tess: You may have turned your back on God but He's still facing you. Welcoming you.
- Jackson Spears: Oh, here... A religious nut; here we go.
- Tess: You think you're God and *I'm* the religious nut?
- Jackson Spears: You hate me, don't you?
- Tess: No, hate has caused a lot of problems in this world, but it's never solved one yet.
- Jackson Spears: You know, you people crack me up, ya know that? I mean, you're afraid of the dark so you invent this thing and call it faith, and then - pretend to believe what you can't even see.
- Tess: But the reward of faith is that you *see* what you believe.
- Monica: How much faith does an angel have, Max?
- Max Chamberlain: I don't know. I-I guess more than anybody.
- Monica: No. No. We don't have any at all, absolutely none; you see, we don't need it. But you do. That's what makes yous strong. Believing today in the light that doesn't come until tomorrow.
- Monica: Oh, little one. Have I a message for you. God wants you to be born and the world that is waiting for you was created by Him. And it is nothing to fear. Yes, there will be rivers for you to cross, but when you walk through the water He will be with you. And, yes, there will be mountains for you to climb, but when you can't take another step, He will carry you. And there will be people to cherish, and hearts to change. But He will hold your hand every step of the way if you just will come out into the light, and have faith.
