Barbara Sukowa: Katarina Jones

Quotes 

• Katarina Jones : I don't know who of you believes in a god. And if so, what kind? A god of absolutes. Or a god of compromise. My god of late has been time. Time doesn't concern itself with morality or good or evil, but with if and when. A god who understands that I've already done that which I will one day do. Our sins precede us. They define us. One hopes, in the name of order and necessity, wrong for the sake of right.

• Katarina Jones : We are faced now with an opportunity. The Witness, in his earliest days. But let's not soften the truth. We are going to kill a child. A boy of unknown origin. A man with a certain future. Both the architect of our destruction. We must not delude ourselves with a notion of innocence. The boy is the man. A totality of moments. And we have ended, once again, where we began. One life in exchange for seven billion. We don't just have an opportunity. We have an obligation. The bullet doesn't kill in one second. It kills in every second. We're just placing it then where we need it to be now. One more thing, no god shall forgive us this sin. Perhaps none should. For that, all we have is each other. And the great absolution of time... that we might have never sinned at all.

• Dr. Lasky : Voila!

  Deacon : "Voila" is usually proposed to express satisfaction or approval. I'm not getting either from that piece of shit.

  Katarina Jones : That piece of shit is how we are going to disable the Guardians' unique advantage.

  Dr. Julian Adler : Think of it as a modified EMP device, which will dampen all electronics and generate a burst of interference, to which even these suits will be susceptible.

  Whitley : So what does that get us?

  Katarina Jones : A window. A very narrow window. Hannah?

  Hannah Jones : We'll splinter to 1953, to the exact moment James and Casssandra located the Witness's safe house. We'll detonate, then we'll engage.

• Katarina Jones : Sometimes the only way to know what's left in us is to see what's at the bottom.
