I swear to you, I will not rest until this world is born again.
Do you know what I've come to learn over the years, Mister Crane? People, by and large, people are herd animals. When it comes right down to it, most people really don't want to bear the burden of governing themselves. Deep down, most people are violently opposed to the effort it takes to think for themselves. Do you know what all of the helpless, bleating sheep really want, more than anything else? A shepherd.
Ichabod Crane You mean tyrant.
Actually, I prefer emperor. Czar, perhaps? Monarch, maybe. Whatever rolls off the tongue.

All I can tell you is that which we have now safeguarded could be used to spark a conflict beyond all others. As to why we are here, aside from present company, I do not trust our founders with it any more than those whose tyranny they seek to shrug off.
Referring to the Turricula Ignis.
[after spontaneously healing from a gunshot wound] Pretty neat trick, right? Yeah, don't…don't try this at home, kids.
[after being shot with the Turricula Ignis] I am become…war.
[after turning Crane into the Horseman of War] War: what is it good for? Absolutely everything.
This is a play on the following lyrics to "War," originally from the album Psychedelic Shack (6 March 1970) by The Temptations and later covered by Edwin Starr:
War!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing!

Ichabod has become the Horseman of War, hasn't he? Huh. Like father, like son. Or, is it the other way around?
Well, knowing our track record, I'm guessing that it's something that'll give your nightmares nightmares.
As they say, turnabout is—
Is freakin' awesome!
Close enough.
The phrase Crane was reciting is, "Turnabout is fair play."

What fools these mortals be.
"Henry," is it? I think this is the beginning of a revolutionary friendship.
Dreyfuss is deliberately paraphrasing a famous line from Casablanca (1942):
Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Via ad Infernum!
I have found a way back from Purgatory, the Catacombs, and New Jersey. We will return.
And, if Hell has a gift shop, I'd like a snow globe.

There's a door. Words in Latin.
Yes, I see it, too. "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."
LLara
We're in the right place.
In Latin, the inscription reads, "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate." The inscription first appears in Canto III of Dante's Inferno.
