Quotes 

• Philippe Weis : You'd steal from your own father.

  Sylvia Weis : Is it stealing if it's already stolen?

• Philippe Weis : You might upset the balance for a generation, two. But don't fool yourself. In the end, nothing will change. Because everyone wants to live forever. They all think they have a chance at immortality, even though all the evidence is against it. They all think they will be the exception. But the truth is, for a few to be immortal, many must die.

  Will Salas : [points a gun at Philippe]  No one should be immortal, if even one person has to die.

• Philippe Weis : Timekeeper. After this regrettable incident it's really not necessary for you to come in person.

  Raymond Leon : I'm afraid it really *is*... Necessary.

  Philippe Weis : When can we hope for a rescue?

  Raymond Leon : I believe that's the point; she doesn't appear to want to be rescued.

  Philippe Weis : Mr Leon... Raymond. May I call you Raymond?

  [Leon doesn't respond] 

  Philippe Weis : I blame myself. I invited the man into my home. He had so much time, how was I supposed to know? Of course, Sylvia brought this on herself by her lack of vigilance. That's why I always tried to keep her close. But she is clearly under Will Salas's control.

  [Leon still doesn't respond. Weis examines his arm with a clock on it] 

  Philippe Weis : If it's a matter of resources, I'm... happy to make a contribution. It's a scandal what we pay our Timekeepers.

  Raymond Leon : [Leon nods lightly in apparent agreement]  I have issued a warrant for your daughter's arrest. If she contacts you and you assist her in any way, I will issue a warrant for your arrest.

  Philippe Weis : [Weis stands up from behind his desk, looking slightly displeased]  There's nothing I cannot buy. Now, how many of my years do you want?

  Raymond Leon : There aren't enough years, even in your lifetime, Mr. Weis. Goodnight.

• Sylvia Weis : [to her father]  You've hired more guards since the last time I saw you.

  Philippe Weis : Thanks to you, I need them.

  Sylvia Weis : One too many.

  [Will reveals himself as a guard] 

• Philippe Weis : Even if you gave a year to a million people, you're just prolonging their agony.

  Sylvia Weis : We're prolonging their lives.

  Philippe Weis : Flooding the wrong zone with a million years, it could cripple the system.

  Will Salas : Let's hope so.

  Sylvia Weis : We're not meant to live like this. We're not meant to live for ever. Although I do wonder, Father, if you've ever lived a day in your life.

• Philippe Weis : I kept her safe.

  Michele Weis : You were suffocating her. You're suffocating us all.

• Constantin : Sir... do something.

  Philippe Weis : It's already done.
