McCord : [At Lincoln Six-Echo] All right, look. I know you're new to this whole human experience and all, but there's one universal truth and that is you NEVER give a woman your credit card.
Lincoln Six-Echo : Right. mmm.
-
Lincoln Six-Echo : What's "God"?
McCord : Well, you know, when you want something really bad and you close your eyes and you wish for it? God's the guy that ignores you.

Lincoln Six-Echo : [as Jordan starts kissing him passionately] Oh, that tongue thing is amazing.

Merrick : What's troubling, you, Lincoln?
Lincoln Six-Echo : It - it's just... all right, Tuesday night is tofu night, and I'm asking myself "Who here decided that everyone likes tofu in the first place, and what is tofu anyway?" And why can't I have bacon? I line up every morning, and I'm not allowed any bacon for my breakfast. And - and tell me - let's talk about all the white. Why is everyone wearing white all the time? It's impossible to keep clean, I'm walking around, I get - I always get the gray stripe, I never get any color, and I hand it in to be cleaned, and - and someone cleans it and fold it neatly back in my drawer, but who? Who is that person? I don't know. I just - I wanna know answers and I - and I wish that there was more.
Merrick : More?
Lincoln Six-Echo : Yeah, more than just waiting to go to The Island.

Albert Laurent : [catching on] Have you talked with anyone else about this?
Lincoln Six-Echo : Who would believe it?
Albert Laurent : Can I count on that?
Lincoln Six-Echo : The only thing you can count on is that people will do anything to survive. I just want to live. I don't care how.

Merrick : What happens then?
Lincoln Six-Echo : I drown.

Tom Lincoln : Look, you're creeping me out enough without that.

Lincoln Six-Echo : [in pain] It hurts.
Merrick : [nonchalant] Not really.
Lincoln Six-Echo : Yeah, it does.
Merrick : No it doesn't.
Lincoln Six-Echo : Yeah, it really, really does.
Merrick : [after all microsensors went under Lincoln Six-Echo's eyes] The microsensors will move along your optic nerve. They will be uploading readings over the next 24 hours, after which you will pass them through your urine. Now *that* might hurt.
