"We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember, my friends, future events such as these will affect you in the future." Criswell
"And now for the first time, we are bringing to you the full story of what happened on that fateful day. We are giving you all the evidence, based only on the secret testimony of the miserable souls who survived this terrifying ordeal. The incidents, the places. My friends, we cannot keep this a secret any longer. Let us punish the guilty, let us reward the innocent. My friends... can your heart stand the shocking facts about Grave Robbers from Outer Space?" Criswell
"The ever-beautiful flowers she had planted with her own hands became nothing more than the lost roses of her cheeks." Criswell
"Finding a mess like this ought to make anyone frightened." Inspector Clay
"Say Lieutenant, you get that funny odor?" Patrolman Larry
"Last night I saw a flying object that couldn't have possibly been from this planet, but I can't talk about it. I'm muzzled by Army Brass." Jeff Trent
"Inspector Clay's dead... murdered... and somebody's responsible." Lieutenant Harper
"People turning south on the freeway were startled when they saw three flying saucers flying over Hollywood Boulevard." Criswell
"There comes a time in each man's life where he can't even believe his own eyes." Criswell
"For a time we tried to contact them by radio but no response. Then they attacked a town. A small town, I'll admit, but nevertheless a town of people... people who died." Colonel Edwards
"Looks like we beat them off again, sir." Army Captain
"Well, as long as they can think, we'll have our problems. But those whom we are using cannot think. They are dead, brought to a simulated life by our electrode guns. You know, it's an interesting thing when you consider... the earth people who can think are so frightened by those who cannot... the dead." Eros
"Now, off to your wild blue yonders." Paula Trent
"Hey, Edie, how about you and me balling it up in Albuquerque?" Copilot Danny
"It's quiet all right... like a tomb. I'm sorry, Jeff. That was a bad joke." Edie
"Why do I have to get hooked up with these spook details? Monsters, graves, bodies!" Kelton the Cop
"Bring the giant here, that I might get a better look at him." The Ruler
"I'll bet my badge right now we haven't seen the last of those weirdies." Lieutenant Harper
"I'll tell you one thing. If a little green man pops out at me, I'm shooting first and asking questions later." Jeff Trent
"I, a fiend?" Eros
"All you of Earth are idiots." Eros
"You see... you see... your stupid minds, stupid, stupid!" Eros
"Take a can of your gasoline. Say this can of gasoline is the sun. Now, you spread a thin line of it to a ball, representing the earth. Now, the gasoline represents the sunlight, the sun particles. Here we saturate the ball with the gasoline, the sunlight. Then we put a flame to the ball. The flame will speedily travel around the earth, back along the line of gasoline to the can, or the sun itself. It will explode this source and spread to every place that gasoline, our sunlight, touches. Explode the sunlight here, gentlemen, you explode the universe. Explode the sunlight here and a chain reaction will occur direct to the sun itself and to all the planets that sunlight touches, to every planet in the universe. This is why you must be stopped." -Eros
"Perhaps, on your way home, someone will pass you in the dark, and you will never know it. For they will be from outer space." Criswell
