This is probably my favorite of all time Speech and Scene from a movie. It is from the last scene in the movie Boondock Saints. Anyone who has seen this movie will admit this is the most powerful scene. The speech made the movie a cult classic. And even if you are not into violent movies, seeing William Dafoe dressed up as a female hooker is just worth your time.
So no rant today from me. This says everything on my mind!
Now, you will receive us.
We do not ask for your poor, or your hungry. We do not want your tired and sick.
It is your corrupt we claim. It is your evil that will be sought by us.
With every breath we shall hunt them down. Each day, we will spill their blood till it rains down from the skies.
Do not kill, do not rape, do not steal. These are principles which EVERY man of EVERY faith can embrace.
These are not polite suggestions. These are codes of behavior, and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost.
There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth...not to push the bounds and cross over...into true corruption...into our domain.
For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three.
And on that day, you will reap it. And we will send you to whatever God you wish.
And shepherds we shall be, For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be. Et Nomini Patri, et Fili, Spiritus Sancti.
--From "Boondock Saints," The courtroom speech. By the way The Latin translates roughly to : They will act as God's messenger's, disciples if you will, to eradicate all the bad things that corrupt the citizenship and humanity. To try and recreate a starting point so that all we have is original sin, a chance to start over.
Learn it. Live it. Learn it!!!
