"Look, I'm not telling you not to stay in that room for your own good or for the profit of the hotel. Frankly, selfishly, I just don't want to clean up the mess."

"I warned you about 1408."

"It's an evil fucking room."

"[before throwing the ashtray through the window, thereby letting the room explode] The decor is in tatters... And the staff surly... But on the Shiver Scale, I award the Dolphin... ten skulls!"

"We're here to do the job. And we don't rattle."

"[speaking nonchalantly to the ghoulish apparition in the vents as the room burns] Keep quiet, you bastard."

"This may not all be real. I may not even be real. But this fire... That's gotta be real."

"I've lived the life of a selfish man. But I don't have to die that way."

"[speaking into his recorder as he goes out on the ledge, trying to escape the room] If something should happen, if I should slip and fall, I want it known it was an accident. The room did not win."

"It's not that what I'm seeing is not real. It just ain't as real as it seems."

"Let's Encyclopedia Brown this bitch."

"It does have the vague air of menace."

"This March, terror runs in the family."

"Don't cross her... It could be deadly."

"What if you have the power to move objects with your mind? What if everyone gave you a reason to use that power?"

"Every teen thinks terrible thoughts... Hers are deadly."

"Looks can kill."

"(to Sue) With all due respect, lady, you are seriously batshit. I am walking back into the real world now."

"(angry) Is that all I was to you, Jesse? Thirty points?!?"

"I always wanted to be one of the shiny, happy people."

"Please. Don't leave me. I don't have anyone. Please, God... let me die."

"(going back to the old school) The night of the prom. Seventy-three people died. A few of us survived, but we never talked about that night."

"(to Rachel) It's a trait, Rachel. You've inherited it. Telekineis; the ability to move objects with your mind."

"I had a traumatic experience in high school. I tried to help someone, and it backfired horribly."

"Your next wish could be your last..."

"Don't make a sound, don't make a move, and above all else...don't make a wish."

"Be careful what you wish for."

"So, how do you like me so far?"

"[Nathaniel provokes a man into wishing he could "escape", and the man suddenly appears in a straitjacket inside a steel-and-glass box filled with water] Houdini did it in two and a half minutes."

"I claim that which is owed."

"Run, insect. Run and tell those you will, what you will. Tell them there is something loose in their city which feeds on wishes. But tell them quickly, while you still have a soul."

"Once, in a time before time, God breathed life into the universe. And the light gave birth to Angels. And the earth gave birth to Man. And the fire gave birth to the Djinn, creatures condemned to dwell in the void between the worlds. One who wakes a Djinn will be given three wishes. Upon the granting of the third, the unholy legions of the Djinn will be freed to rule the earth. Fear one thing in all there is...fear the Djinn."
