Agent Smith: "The great Morpheus. We meet at last."
Morpheus: "And you are?"
Agent Smith: "A Smith. Agent Smith."
Morpheus: "You all look the same to me."
Hugo Weaving.
Among countless other appearences, recently played in blockbusters like "The Matrix" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogies or in "V for Vendetta". Agent Smith (a software law enforcement agent from the Matrix, materialized later) very nicely depicts Smiling Man's attitude: danger beneath a smooth surface...
Agent Smith: "I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure."
Agent Smith: "I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it." |
