Whatever we do, weve got three minutes to get it done. — Saw II

"Hello, Obi. I want to play a game. For years you have burned those around you with your lies, cons, and deceits. Now you will have a chance to redeem yourself, for the games youve played with others, by playing one of mine. Inside the device in front of you are two antidotes for the poison coursing through your veins. One is my gift to you for helping me kidnap the others. The second is yours to donate. However, one will come with a price. Remember Obi: Once you are in Hell, only the devil can help you out."

"Hello, Michael. I want to play a game. So far, in what loosely could be called your life, you have made a living watching others. Society would call you an informant, a rat, a snitch. I call you unworthy of the body you possess. Of the life youve been given. Now we will see if you are willing to look inward, rather than outward, to give up the one thing you rely on in order to go on living. The device around your neck is a death mask. The mask is on a string timer. If you do not locate the key in time, the mask will close. Think of it like a Venus Flytrap. What youre looking at right now is your own body, not more than two hours ago. Dont worry. Youre sound asleep, and cant feel a thing. Taking into account that you are at a great disadvantage here, I am going to give you a hint as to where I have hidden the key. So listen carefully. The hint is this: [TV screen shows an x-ray.] Its right before your eyes. How much blood would you shed to stay alive, Michael? Live or die, make your choice."

"Not long to go now until your son is pissing blood."

"[To Daniel] Your mother gets to keep custody, I get to take you into custody."

"[Whilst Eric Matthews has forced a pistol into his mouth] Game—Game over. Ill take you to the house."

"Hello, Xavier. I want to play a game. The game I want to play is very similar to the game youve been playing as a drug dealer. The game of offering hope to the desperate, for a price. I think we can agree that your situation is desperate. So, I offer you hope. The price you pay is that you must crawl into the same pit of squalor you force your customers into. By entering this room, you have started a timer. When the timer expires, the door in front of you will be locked forever. Only in finding the key before the timer runs out can you unlock it and retrieve the antidote inside. I will give you just one hint where to that key is: It will be like finding a needle in a haystack. Let the game begin."
