Quotes 

  • Ben Gates : [after he and Riley rescued Abigail from Ian's truck]  You all right?

    Abigail Chase : No, those - those lunatics...

    Ben Gates : You're not hurt, are you?

    Abigail Chase : YOU'RE ALL LUNATICS!

    Ben Gates : You hungry?

    Abigail Chase : What?

    Ben Gates : Are you all right?

    Riley Poole : Still a little on-edge from being shot at but I'll be okay, thanks for asking.

    Abigail Chase : Yeah, well I'm not all right! Those men have the Declaration of Independence!

    Riley Poole : SHE LOST IT?

    Ben Gates : They don't have it.

    [He pulls the Declaration out to show her] 

    Ben Gates : See? Okay? Now could you please stop shouting?

    Abigail Chase : [She reaches for it, but he pulls it away]  Give me that!

    Ben Gates : You're still shouting, and it's really starting to annoy. You would do well, Dr. Chase, to be a little more civilized in this instance.

    Abigail Chase : If this is the real one, what did they get?

    Ben Gates : A souvenir. I thought it'd be a good idea to have a duplicate, turns out I was right. I actually had to pay for the souvenir and the real one, so you owe me $35, plus tax.

    Riley Poole : Genius.

    Abigail Chase : Who were those men?

    Ben Gates : Just the guys we warned you were going to try to steal the Declaration.

    Riley Poole : And you didn't believe us!

    Ben Gates : We did the only thing we could do to keep it safe.

    Abigail Chase : Verdammt! Give me that!

    Ben Gates : You know something? You're shouting again.

    Riley Poole : Pretty sure she was swearing too.

    Ben Gates : Well, we probably deserved that.

  • Abigail Chase : What do you see?

    Ben Gates : 2:22.

    Abigail Chase : What time is it now?

    Clothing Store Clerk : Almost 3.

    Abigail Chase : [sighs]  We missed it.

    Riley Poole : No, we didn't. We didn't miss it because... you don't know this? I know something about history that you don't know.

    Ben Gates : I'd be very excited to learn about it, Riley.

    Riley Poole : Hold on one second, let me just take in this moment. This is cool. Is this how you feel all the time? Well, except now.

    Abigail Chase : Riley!

    Riley Poole : All right! What I know is that daylight savings wasn't established until World War I. If it's 3 p.m. now that means that in 1776 it would be 2 p.m.

    Ben Gates : Riley, you're a genius.

  • Riley Poole : [leaving Abigail's office after unsuccessfully trying to convince her about potential theft the Declaration of Independence]  If it's any consolation, you had me convinced.

    Ben Gates : It's not.

    Riley Poole : I was thinking, what if we go public, plaster the story all over the internet? It's not like we have our reputations to worry about. Although, I don't think that's exactly gonna scare Ian away.

    Ben Gates : [standing in front of the Declaration of Independence]  180 years of searching, and I'm three feet away. Of all the words written here about freedom, there's a line here that's at the heart of all the others. "But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and provide new Guards for their future security."

    [pause] 

    Ben Gates : People don't talk that way anymore.

    Riley Poole : Beautiful, huh? I have no idea what you said.

    Ben Gates : It means if there's something something wrong, those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.

    [pause] 

    Ben Gates : I'm gonna steal it.

    Riley Poole : [laughs]  What?

    Ben Gates : I'm gonna steal the Declaration of Independence.

    [walks away] 

    Riley Poole : [laughs, then follows Ben]  Uh, Ben?

  • Powell : [referring to the underground staircase]  How do a bunch of guys with hand tools build all this?

    Ben Gates : Same way they built the pyramids - and the Great Wall of China.

    Riley Poole : Yeah... the aliens helped them.

  • Ben Gates : It's invisible.

    Abigail Chase : Oh! Right.

    Riley Poole : And that's where we lost the Department of Homeland Security.

  • Patrick Gates : [to Abigail and Riley]  And he dragged you two into this nonsense?

    Abigail Chase : Literally.

    Riley Poole : I volunteered.

  • Riley Poole : I have to settle with 1%. One stinkin' percent. Half of one percent, actually.

    [he jumps into a Ferrari 360 Spider] 

    Ben Gates : I'm sorry for your suffering, Riley.

  • Riley Poole : When are we gonna get there? I'm hungry. This car smells weird.

  • Benjamin Franklin Gates : I'm so sorry I dropped you - I had to save the Declaration!

    Abigail Chase : No, don't be. I would have done exactly the same to you.

    Benjamin Franklin Gates : Really?

    Abigail Chase : Yeah.

    Riley Poole : I would've dropped you both! Freaks.

  • Riley Poole : Why can't they just say, 'go to this place, here's the treasure, spend it wisely'?

  • Abigail Chase : Riley, are you crying?

    Riley Poole : Look... Stairs.

  • Riley Poole : Anyone crazy enough to believe us isn't gonna want to help.

    Ben Gates : We don't need someone crazy. But one step short of crazy, what do you get?

    Riley Poole : Obsessed.

    Ben Gates : Passionate.

  • Riley Poole : It's a big blue-ish green man... with a strange-looking goatee... I'm guessing that's significant.

    [hugs the statue] 

  • Riley Poole : They're like Early American x-ray specs.

    Abigail Chase : Benjamin Franklin invented something like these.

    Ben Gates : Uh, I think he invented *these*.

  • Riley Poole : Okay, Ben, pay attention. I've brought you to the Library of Congress. Why? Because it's the biggest library in the world. Over 20 million books. And they're all saying the same exact thing: Listen to Riley. What we have here is an entire layout of the Archives: sort of builder's blueprints. We've got construction manuals, phone lines, water, and sewage. It's all right here. Now, when the Declaration is on display, it is surrounded by guards... and video monitors... and little families from Iowa... and little kids on their eighth-grade field trip. And underneath an inch of bulletproof glass is an army of sensors and heat monitors that will go off if someone gets too close with a high fever. Now, when it's not on display, it is lowered into a four-foot-thick concrete, steel-plated vault that happens to be equipped with an electronic combination lock and biometric access-denial systems.

    Ben Gates : You know, Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2,000 times to develop the carbonized cotton-thread filament for the incandescent light bulb.

    Riley Poole : Edison?

    Ben Gates : And when asked about it, he said "I didn't fail; I found out 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," but he only needed one way to make it work.

    [sets down a book in front of Riley] 

    Ben Gates : The Preservation Room. Enjoy. Go ahead. Do you know what the preservation room is for?

    Riley Poole : Delicious jams and jellies?

    Ben Gates : No, that's where they clean, repair, and maintain all the documents and their storage housings when they are not on display or in the vault. Now, when the case needs work, they take it out of the vault and directly across the hall and into the Preservation Room. The best time for us or Ian to steal it would be during the gala this weekend when the guards are distracted by the VIPs upstairs; but we'll make our way to the Preservation Room, where there is much less security.

    Riley Poole : Well... uh... Ian... Preservation, hmm. Well, this might be possible.

    Ben Gates : It might.

  • [Ben shivers after unrolling the Declaration of Independence in the signing room of Independence Hall] 

    Riley Poole : What?

    Ben Gates : It's just that... the last time this was here... it was being signed.

  • Abigail Chase : There is not a treasure map on the back of the Declaration of Independence.

    Ben Gates : And there's no chance anyone can steal this...

    [shakes the tube containing the Declaration] 

    Ben Gates : ... either.

    [shakes the tube again] 

    Ben Gates : I leveled with you one hundred percent. Everything I told you was the truth.

    Abigail Chase : I want that document, Mr. Brown.

    Ben Gates : Ok, my name's not Brown. It's Gates. I leveled with you ninety-eight percent.

    Abigail Chase : Wait a minute, did you just say "Gates"?

    [brief pause] 

    Abigail Chase : "Gates"? You're that family with the conspiracy theory about the founding fathers?

    Ben Gates : It's not a conspiracy theory.

    Riley Poole : Per se.

    Abigail Chase : You know what? I take it back. You're not liars. You're insane.

  • Riley Poole : [after Ben decides to steal the Declaration]  This is... huge.

    [pause] 

    Riley Poole : Prison... huge. You are gonna go to prison. You know that, right?

    Benjamin Franklin Gates : Yeah, probably.

    Riley Poole : Well... that would... bother most people.

  • Riley Poole : Ben, you know what you have to do.

    Ben Gates : I know what I *have* to do, I'm just trying to think if there's anything else we *could* do.

    Riley Poole : Well not to be a nudge, but you do realize how many people we have after us. We probably have our own satellite by now. It took you all of two seconds to decide to steal the Declaration of Independence...

    Ben Gates : Yeah but I didn't think I was *personally* going to have to tell my Dad about it!

    Ben Gates : [Abigail tries to run away with the Declaration]  Hey! Not cool! Not cool!

    [Grabs her] 

    Abigail Chase : Let me go!

    Ben Gates : [Taking back the Declaration]  Okay, you're let go. Now shoo.

    Abigail Chase : I'm not going.

    [Tries to take back the Declaration] 

    Abigail Chase : Not without the Declaration.

    Ben Gates : [Pulling the Declaration away]  You're not going with the Declaration.

    Abigail Chase : Yes I am. I'm not letting it out of my sight, so I'm going.

    Ben Gates : Wait. You're not going with us, with the Declaration.

    Abigail Chase : Yes I am.

    Ben Gates : No, you're not!

    Abigail Chase : Look, if you wanted to leave me behind, you shouldn't have told me where you were going.

    Riley Poole : [Bangs head on car door frame] 

  • Riley Poole : [speaking through headset]  How do you look?

    Ben Gates : [looking in mirror]  Not bad.

    Riley Poole : Mazel tov!

  • Powell : Look... this is a waste of time. How could a ship wind up way out here?

    Riley Poole : Well, I'm no expert but... it could be that the hydrothermic properties of this region produce hurricane-force ice storms that cause the ocean to freeze and then melt and then refreeze, resulting in a semisolid migrating land mass that would land a ship right around here.

    [walks away] 

  • Riley Poole : [after his computer goes blank]  I lost my feed.

    Ben Gates : [in the preservation room]  What?

    Riley Poole : I lost my feed, Ben. I don't know where anyone is. I-I have nothing. Ben, I have no-. Ben, I have nothing. Get out of there. Get out of there now!

    Ben Gates : [picking up the Declaration of independence's case]  I'm taking the whole thing. I'll get it out of the elevator.

    Riley Poole : What are you talking... Is it heavy?

  • Ben Gates : [speaking through headset]  Riley, can you hear me?

    Riley Poole : Unfortunately, yeah.

  • Abigail Chase : What led you to assume there's this invisible map?

    Ben Gates : We found an engraving on the stem of a 200-year-old pipe.

    Riley Poole : Owned by the Free Masons.

    Abigail Chase : May I see the pipe?

    Ben Gates : We don't actually have it.

    Abigail Chase : [beat, leans forward conspiratorially]  Did Bigfoot take it?

  • Riley Poole : Our evil plan is working.

  • [trying to find the password to the Preservation Room] 

    Ben Gates : It's Valley Forge.

    Riley Poole : Valley... I don't have that on my computer.

    Ben Gates : It's Valley Forge. She pressed E and L twice.

    [typing password] 

    Ben Gates : Valley Forge was a turning point in the Revolutionary War.

    [Access is granted] 

    Riley Poole : Can I marry your brain?

  • Riley Poole : Who wants to go down the creepy tunnel inside the tomb first?

  • Riley Poole : Do you actually know who the first person to suggest daylight savings was?

    Abigail Chase , Ben Gates : Benjamin Franklin.

    [Riley stomps down his foot in disappointment] 

  • [They see Abigail hanging out the back of Ian's truck, clinging to the door and screaming] 

    Ben Gates : Oh, no.

    Riley Poole : Holy Lord.

  • Abigail Chase : You can't *seriously* intend to run chemical tests on the Declaration of Independence... in the back of a moving van!

    Riley Poole : We have a clean room environment all set up: EDS suits, a particulate air filtration system, the whole shebang.

    Abigail Chase : Really?

    Ben Gates : We can't go back there.

    Riley Poole : What? Why not?

  • Riley Poole : [examining the back of the Declaration]  So if it's in invisible ink, how do we see it?

    Patrick Gates : Throw it in the oven.

    Abigail Chase , Ben Gates : No!

    Riley Poole : Uh-uh.

  • Ben Gates : Meet me at the car. Call me if you have any problems.

    Riley Poole : Like if we get caught and killed?

    Ben Gates : Yeah - that would be a big problem. Take care of her.

    Riley Poole , Abigail Chase : [together]  I will.

  • Riley Poole : For the record, Ben, I like the house.

    Ben Gates : You know, I chose this estate because in 1812 Charles Carroll met...

    Riley Poole : Yeah, someone that did something in history and had fun. Great. Wonderful.

    [puts on a pair of sunglasses and starts the car] 

    Riley Poole : Could have had a bigger house.

    [drives away] 

  • Shaw : Prison.

    Riley Poole : Albuquerque. See, I can do it too. Snorkel.

    Shaw : That's where the map is. Like he said, "Fifty-five in iron pen." "Iron pen" is a prison.

    Ben Gates : Or it could be, since the primary writing medium of the time was iron gall ink, the "pen" is... just a pen. But then why not say a pen? Why say "iron pen"?

    Shaw : Cause it's a prison.

  • Riley Poole : What do you care? You got the girl.

    Abigail Chase , Ben Gates : That's true.

    [Ben and Abigail kiss] 

    Riley Poole : Yeah, rub it in.

    [He turns and walks away] 

    Riley Poole : Enjoy your spoils.

  • Riley Poole : [sings]  Where are you?

    Ben Gates : [walking out]  Stop talking. Start the van.

    Riley Poole : [starts the van, looks up, and sees Abigail following Ben]  Ben, the, uh, mean D- Declaration lady's behind you.

  • Riley Poole : Ian, why don't you just come back down here, and we can talk through this together!

    Ian Howe : [aims his gun at Riley]  Don't speak again.

    Riley Poole : Okay.

  • Riley Poole : [listening to Abigail over Ben's wire connection]  Is that that hot girl? How does she look?

  • Riley Poole : Will someone please explain to me what these magic numbers are?

  • [as he tries to turn the van while chasing Ian's truck] 

    Riley Poole : Skidding! Skidding! Skidding!

  • Riley Poole : [upon realizing the magnitude of everyone now after them for stealing the Declaration]  ... We probably have our own satellite by now...

  • Riley Poole : [about Ben paying for the real Declaration and the souvenir copy with a credit card]  A credit card slip? Dude, we're on the grid. They're gonna have your records from forever. They're gonna have my records from forever.

    Ben Gates : I know. I know. It's only a matter of minutes before the FBI shows up at my front door.

    Riley Poole : What do we do?

    Ben Gates : We need those letters.

    Abigail Chase : What letters?

    Ben Gates : You know, get off the road, take a right.

    Abigail Chase : *What letters*?

  • Ben Gates : [he and Ben are chasing Ian's truck with Abigail held hostage inside]  Once we catch them, what do we do?

    Riley Poole : I'm workin' on it!

  • Riley Poole : [after seeing a guy walk up to Gates and Chase]  Who's the stiff?

  • Riley Poole : [through clenched teeth]  Stop chatting and get in the van.

  • [Ben is having a conversation with Abigail, which is distracting him from his goal: stealing the Declaration of Independence] 

    Riley Poole : [speaking through headset]  Come on, Romeo. Get out of there.
