Quotes 

• Erle Kenton : We should have stuck with the old ways. Raising cattle for our feed. Where's the life in that?

  Charlie Barton : Humans *are* our cattle.

  Erle Kenton : Humans are our *prey*. We should feed on them, like we've always done. Screw all this "channel your energies" crap.

• Karen White : Where's Bill?

  Marsha Quist : He's one of us now.

  Dr. George Waggner : Given time, he would have brought you over to us. Our secret will be safe.

  Donna : It's wonderful, Karen. When I was first bitten, I fought against it. And so did Jerry. And then we found the Doctor. He helped us. He helped us to adjust. You see, Karen, he understands all about the gift. He knows how to use it, how to control it.

  Dr. George Waggner : You'd have Bill back. There's still time if you accept the gift.

  Jerry Warren : It was a mistake to bring her to the Colony.

  Erle Kenton : We should have stuck with the old ways. Raising cattle for our feed. Where's the life in that?

  Charlie Barton : The humans are our cattle.

  Erle Kenton : Humans are our prey. We should feed on them like we've always done. Screw all this "channel your energies" crap.

  Dr. George Waggner : But the danger of exposure. We need this shelter to plan, to catch up with society. Times have changed, and we haven't. Not enough.

  Marsha Quist : Shut up, Doc! You wouldn't listen to me, none of you. "We can fit in," you said. "We can live with them." You make me sick.

  Dr. George Waggner : Marsha...

  Marsha Quist : Oh, you're through, Doc. She's ours now.

  T.C. Quist : [shows Karen his severed hand that Terry cutted off]  See what your friend did to me that night?

  Dr. George Waggner : What's the matter with you all? Have you forgotten everything you've learned? She can't disappear. She's well known.

  Charlie Barton : [agreeing]  He's right, Marsha. We've got to make this look like an accident.

  Dr. George Waggner : I won't let you do this.

  [Marsha claws him in the face and Charlie hits him in the chest with his rifle causing him to kneel to the ground in pain] 

  Erle Kenton : You can't tame what's meant to be wild, Doc. It ain't natural.

• Charlie Barton : Sorry to scare you, ma'am, thought you was a cowjacker.
