- Slam Guard: You'll kill us... with a soup cup?
- Richard B. Riddick: Tea, actually.
- Slam Guard: What's that?
- Richard B. Riddick: I'll kill you with my teacup.
- Richard B. Riddick: There's gonna be one speed... mine. If you can't keep up, don't step up. You'll just die.
- The Guv: There are inmates and there are convicts. A convict has a certain code. And he knows to show a certain respect. An inmate, on the other hand, pulls the pin on his fellow man. Does the guards' work for them... brings shame... to the game. So, which are you gonna be?
- Richard B. Riddick: Me? I'm just passin' through.
- Richard B. Riddick: You made three mistakes. First, you took the job. Second, you came light. A four man crew for me? Fucking insulting. But the worst mistake you made...
- [Toombs darts for the gun rack which he finds to be empty while Riddick smiles]
- Richard B. Riddick: ...empty gun rack.
- [first lines]
- Aereon: They are an army unlike any other... crusading across the stars toward a place called UnderVerse, their promised land - a constellation of dark new worlds. Necromongers, they're called. And if they cannot convert you, they will kill you. Leading them, the Lord Marshal. He alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of the UnderVerse... and returned a different being. Stronger. Stranger. Half alive and half... something else. If we are to survive, a new balance must be found. In normal times, evil would be fought by good. But in times like these, well, it should be fought by another kind of evil.
- [referring to a Necromonger Riddick has just killed rather easily in hand-to-hand combat]
- Lord Marshal: Irgun. One of my best.
- Richard B. Riddick: If you say so.
- Aereon: [to Riddick] There are very few of us who have met a Necromonger and lived to speak of it. So when I choose to speak of it, you should choose to listen.
- Richard B. Riddick: Don't bother. Guards ain't there. They figured out the Necros are comin' for me. Plan was to clean the bank, ghost the mercs, break wide for the tunnel. And then somebody got a lucky shot off with this rocket launcher here... and took out the sled. Guards took off on foot but rigged the door so no one could follow. They'll take the one ship in the hangar and leave everyone else to die.
- Toombs: How come you know all this shit? You weren't even here.
- Richard B. Riddick: Cause it was my plan.
- Vaako: This is your one chance. Take the Lord Marshals' offer and bow.
- Richard B. Riddick: I bow to no man.
- Vaako: [take off his helmet] He is not a man. He's the holy Half-Dead who has seen the UnderVerse.
- Richard B. Riddick: Look, I'm not with everyone here. But I will take a piece of him.
- [points to Irgun]
- Vaako: A piece you will have.
- Richard B. Riddick: Remember that favorite game of yours?
- Kyra: "Who's the Better Killer?"
- Richard B. Riddick: Let's play.
- Purifier: [to Riddick] I was supposed to deliver a message to you... if Vaako failed to kill you. A message from the Lord Marshal himself. He tells you to stay away from Helion, stay away from him, and in return, you'll be hunted no more. But Vaako will most likely report you as dead. So this is your chance. Your chance to do what no man has ever done.
- Imam: Have you heard anything I've said?
- Richard B. Riddick: You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
- Imam: That's right.
- Richard B. Riddick: Had to end sometime.
- Richard B. Riddick: [in cryosleep] Merceneries. Elementals. Necromongers. Shit, I've never been so popular. I should probaly slip these chains and open up a few arteries. But why drive when you can get driven? Free ticket to Crematoria. Thanks Toombs. Got me some business there, named Jack. And once we settle up, I walk away forever. So I'll just wait... all back-of-the-bus for now.
- Dame Vaako: [about the Necropolis] The first six Lord Marshals have called this home. Magnificent, isn't it?
- Richard B. Riddick: I might have gone a different way.
- Purifier: True of us all.
- Lord Marshal: What do you think of this blade?
- [Riddick grabs it, spins it around over and under his hand; catches it blade facing him and offers it back to the Lord Marshal]
- Richard B. Riddick: I think it's a half-gram heavy on the back end.
- Richard B. Riddick: [to Toombs] Don't know about this new crew of yours. They seem a bit skittish. Probably shouldn't tell 'em what happened to the last crew.
- Richard B. Riddick: I'm sure God has his tricks, but getting out of places no one else can, that's one of mine.
- [director's cut]
- Purifier: In this verse, life is antagonistic to the natural state. Here humans in all their various races are a spontaneous outbreak. An unguided mistake. Our purpose is to correct that mistake... because there is another verse. A verse where life is welcomed and cherished. A ravishing ever-new place called Underverse... but the road to that verse crosses over the threshold.
- Richard B. Riddick: [a guard has Kyra in a choke-hold] I don't think she likes being touched. I'd take my wounded and go... while you still can.
- Richard B. Riddick: Kyra.
- [No response]
- Richard B. Riddick: [Louder] Kyra!
- Kyra: [Screams] What?
- Richard B. Riddick: Get that ASS MOVING!
- Toombs: You know, you supposed to be some slick-shit killer. Now look at you... all back-of-the-bus and shit.
- Richard B. Riddick: [director's cut] They say most of your brain shuts down in cryosleep.
- Shirah: ...Brain shuts down in cryosleep...
- Richard B. Riddick: All but the primitive side.
- Shirah: All but the primitive side.
- Richard B. Riddick: The animal side.
- Shirah: All but the Furyan side.
- Shirah: Some of us still remember the true crime that happened here on Furya. And once you wake - truly wake - you'll remember too.
- Vaako: First and always, I am a Necromonger commander. So if you're here to test my loyalty, you succeed only in testing my patience.
- Purifier: I've done... unbelievable things... in the name of a faith that was never my own. And he'll do to her what he did to me.
- Richard B. Riddick: What was that? You don't care if you live or die?
- Kyra: If I kill them first, not really.
- Richard B. Riddick: [quietly] Maybe I do.
- [shouts]
- Richard B. Riddick: Keep moving!
- Richard B. Riddick: [to Eve Logan]
- [director's cut]
- Richard B. Riddick: Did you know you grind your teeth at night? Sexy.
- Eve Logan: [about Toombs] What the hell is he thinkin' now?
- Richard B. Riddick: He's thinkin' of a triple-max prison. A no-daylight slam. Only three of 'em left in this system, two of 'em outta range for a shitty little undercutter like this one with no legs. Leavin' just one - Crematoria. That is what you had in mind. Right Toombs?
- Toombs: [Talking about Crematoria] If I owned this place and Hell, I'd rent this place out and live in Hell.
- Richard B. Riddick: Its been a long time since I smelled beautiful.
- Dame Vaako: Let me show you the way.
- Lord Marshal: Don't question it, Vaako.
- Lord Marshal: [his words echo at Vaako, throughout the war room] Take it as a matter of faith.
- Richard B. Riddick: Maybe you should pretend like you're talking to someone educated in the penal system.
- Aereon: In normal times, evil would be fought with good. But in times like these, well, it should be fought by another kind of evil.
- Kyra: [sneaks up behind Riddick and points a blade at his back] Should I go for the sweet spot? Left of the spine, fourth lumbar down; the abdominal aorta? What a gusher.
- [looks over Riddick's shoulder]
- Kyra: How do I get eyes like that?
- Richard B. Riddick: You gotta kill a few people.
- Kyra: Did that. Did a lot of that.
- Richard B. Riddick: Then you gotta get sent to a slam.
- Kyra: One where they tell you you'll never see daylight again. Only there wasn't a doctor here who could shine my eyes, not even for 20 menthol Kools. Was there anything you said that was true?
