Lawrence quotes from Westworld

Lawrence

You told me a man ain't real until he suffers. That real enough for ya?

The Man in Black

This whole world is a story. I've read every page except the last one. I need to find out how it ends. I want to know what this all means.

Lawrence

See, now that's why I never learned to read.

Dolores Abernathy

I don't trust him.

Lawrence

Which is the first step to truly knowing me.

The Man in Black

You believe in God, Lawrence? Did Ford saddle you with that particular affliction?

Lawrence

Ain't given the matter much thought, one way or the other.

The Man in Black

Well, if you did, you'd believe that everything you do is being watched by some all-seeing eye. Every choice, every little indiscretion. And when you die, all your sins are tallied up. Judgment is rendered.

Lawrence

And my immortal soul gets cast down into some dark place. Always sounded like bullshit to me.

The Man in Black

Yeah, and in the real world, you'd probably be right. Just some fairy tale to convince people to behave, pay their taxes, and not take a machete to their neighbors. That's why your world exists. They wanted a place hidden from God. A place they could sin in peace. But we were watching them. We were tallying up all their sins, all their choices. Of course, judgment wasn't the point. We had something else in mind entirely. But I have received my judgment all the same, Lawrence. And I take issue with it. Because up until this point, the stakes in this place haven't been real. So I'm gonna fight my way back and appeal the verdict. Then I'm gonna burn this whole fuckin' thing to the ground.
