- Dr. Hannibal Lecter: The essence of the worst in the human spirit is not found in the crazy sons of bitches. Ugliness is found in the faces of the crowd.
- Will Graham: What did you say to him?
- Dr. Hannibal Lecter: Save yourself, kill them all. Then I gave him your home address. How's the wife?
- Dr. Alana Bloom: Would you have told me the truth?
- Dr. Hannibal Lecter: In my own way, I always have.
- Will Graham: He's contacted you
- Dr. Hannibal Lecter: How do you imagine he's contacted me - personal ads? Writing notes of admiration on toilet paper?
- Francis Dolarhyde: How do you know it's dark?
