Quotes 

• Sarchie : You see, Father, as we speak every day, out there, someone's getting hurt, ripped off, murdered, raped. Where's God when all that's happening? Hmm?

  Mendoza : In the hearts of people like you, who put a stop to it. I mean, we can talk all night about the problem of evil, but what about the problem of good? I mean, if there's no God, if the world is just "survival of the fittest," then why are all the men in this room willing to lay down their lives for total strangers? Hmm?

• Mendoza : A saint is not a moral exemplar. A saint is a life-giver.

  Mendoza : And I've known a lot of cops, and you're exactly the type.

  Mendoza : Ralph Sarchie, do you renounce Satan and all of his works?

  Sarchie : I do renounce him. All his works, and all his ways. I renounce all evil.

• Mendoza : There's two types of evil in this world, Officer Sarchie, secondary evil, the evil that men do, and primary evil, which is something else entirely.

• [Father Mendoza has successfully exorcised Santino, rescuing him from the Jungler. Exhausted, he semi-collapses and catches his breath]
