Quotes 

• Michael Lerman : It's all right. Listen, listen. I know everything now. The Latin you saw in that book was an ancient warning from the angel Gabriel to the angel Uriel.

  Alison Parker : Michael, what are you talking about?

  Michael Lerman : The angel Uriel was stationed at the entrance to Eden to guard it from the devil. Since that time a long line of guardians... sentinels, have guarded the world against evil. Right now it's Father Halliran upstairs. But tonight YOU become the next sentinel. All the people you saw here, the old man, the lesbians... all of them are reincarnations. Devils. The only way they can stop the new sentinal is to make you commit suicide. That's what they were trying to do.

  Alison Parker : [with growing fear and terror]  Michael? I don't...

  Michael Lerman : You don't understand? I'm dead. I was killed a short while ago by Monsignor Franchino for trying to strangle Father Halliran. I'm damned to enternal Hell for my sins. For having Brenner murder my wife so I can be with you. And for killing Brenner to tie up loose ends. I am one of the legion of the dead!

• Miss Logan : I find that New Yorkers have no sense for anything but sex and money.

  Alison Parker : Well, I guess there's something to be said for that.
