Quotes4

  • Oracle: You're cuter than I thought. I can see why she likes you.
  • Neo: Who?
  • Oracle: Not too bright, though.
  • Oracle: I'd ask you to sit down, but, you're not going to anyway. And don't worry about the vase.
  • Neo: What vase?
  • [Neo turns to look for a vase, and as he does, he knocks over a vase of flowers, which shatters on the floor]
  • Oracle: That vase.
  • Neo: I'm sorry...
  • Oracle: I said don't worry about it. I'll get one of my kids to fix it.
  • Neo: How did you know?
  • Oracle: Ohh, what's really going to bake your noodle later on is, would you still have broken it if I hadn't said anything?
  • Oracle: Do you know what that means?
  • [points to a banner]
  • Oracle: It's Latin. It means know thy self. I wanna tell you a little secret, being the one is just like being in love. No one needs to tell you you are in love, you just know it, through and through.
  • Oracle: OK, now I'm supposed to say, "Hmm, that's interesting, but... " then you say...
  • Neo: ..."but what?"
  • Oracle: But... you already know what I'm going to tell you.
  • Neo: I'm not The One.
  • Oracle: Sorry, kid. You got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something.
  • Neo: What?
  • Oracle: Your next life, maybe. Who knows? That's the way these things go.
