After years of watching other movies my favorite dialog is still in From Dusk Till Dawn 3 – The Hangman’s Daughter when Mary Newlie suggests that Ambrose Bierce (author, among others, of The Devil’s Dictionary) might perhaps want to have one of the Bibles they are carrying:
- Bierce: “Oh, no. No, thank you. I’ve … already read it.”
- Newlie: “You have?”
- Bierce: “My singular critique of the good book is that its covers are too far apart.”
- Newlie: “Excuse me?”
- Bierce: “I am of the opinion that the, uh, Bible is, perhaps, the greatest assemblage of lies and untruths ever gathered together, with the possible exception of the Congressional record.”
- Newlie: “Are you an atheist, sir?”
- Bierce: “Yes, ma’am. Thanks to your God, I am an atheist.”
- Newlie: “Then there is no hope for your soul on the final day. When Gabriel blows his horn, your ears will be deaf to the resounding tone of its glory, Mr. Bierce.”
- Bierce: “Oh, no. On the contrary. When Gabriel blows his horn, I shall be playing the tuba.”
Classic.
