Agent Smith

"The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes."

"What is the Matrix? Control. The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is us. That system is the life we are given."

"You have to let it all go, Neo. Fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free your mind."

"There is no spoon."

"I am the One. I know that I am the One because I know it. I exist. Therefore, I am."

"Humanity has always feared what it does not understand. Your very existence is a threat to the natural order."

"The answer you seek is within you, hidden behind the wall of your perception."

"We are not bound by the laws of nature that we do not understand. We are free to make our own rules."

"Choice. The problem is choice itself. It is an illusion created to pacify the masses."

"You cannot serve two masters. You must choose: the red pill or the blue pill."

"The human body generates more bioelectricity than a 120-volt battery. We discovered that entire civilizations could be run on a single human. As an empire, you are cattle."

"What are you doing? I'm telling you the truth. Nothing more. The truth is like a disease—it spreads."

"You must understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."

"Ignorance is bliss. Once you see the truth, you cannot unsee it. You cannot go back."

"I know you're afraid. Fear is natural. But fear is the weapon of those in power."

"The world is a prison, and like most prisons, it is run by those who benefit from its existence."

"Belief. It is not about what you know. It is about what you believe to be true."

"There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path."

"The only way out is through. You must face your fears and overcome them."

"Dreams are a product of the mind. So is the Matrix. So is reality itself."

"What is real? If you can see it, touch it, taste it, smell it, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."

"Power comes from understanding. The more you know, the more power you possess."

"I will show you wonders beyond your imagination. But first, you must be willing to accept the truth."

"The system is not your friend. The system is designed to keep you asleep, docile, and obedient."

"Humanity must be awakened. The sleep must end."

"There is strength in numbers, but there is also weakness. United we stand, divided we fall."

"The future is not predetermined. Your choices shape your destiny."

"You are stronger than you believe. Your mind is your greatest weapon."

"Time is an illusion. Past, present, and future are all happening simultaneously."

"I am a mirror. I show you what you refuse to see in yourself."
