Jurassic Park Man and the Natural World Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Jurassic Park.

Quote #4

DR. ELLIE SATTLER: These are aggressive living things that have no idea what century they're in and they'll defend themselves, violently, if necessary.

We think the dinosaurs would be violent no matter what century they're in. They're not flying into a rage because they don't understand UNIX; they're violent because they're naturally destructive predators.

Quote #5

DR. ALAN GRANT: I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look, dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution, have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?

One big problem here is that the scientists didn't anticipate what to expect. They intended to keep man and dinosaur firmly separated by electric barriers. When the barriers go down, the real battle between man and nature begins.

Quote #6

DR. IAN MALCOLM: God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs. 

DR. ELLIE SATTLER: Dinosaurs eat man. Woman inherits the earth.

Dr. Malcolm describes an unexpected cycle, which Dr. Sattler brings to a humorous conclusion. Unfortunately, if she doesn't watch her step around those raptors, she might not live to inherit anything.
