The Twilight Zone has some powerful quotes that, when dissected, contain some fundamental messages. Here are 20 of the best quotes from the show.
The Twilight Zone had some twisted, inspiring, and downright truthful quotes in its five-season run. The Twilight Zone may have been a science fiction series, but it held some fundamental truths about the real world and humanity beneath its commentary on what the future could look like.
17 "It is man's prerogative - and woman's - to create their own particular and private hell" Season 5, Episode 19, Night Call Another quote that suggests it's human nature to cause destruction is from "Night Call." The episode touches on how humans create their own problems through carelessness with their words. Elva Keene receives phone calls from her late fiancé, who always did what she told him.
15 "I am a human being! And if I speak one thought aloud, that thought lives, even after I've been shoveled into my grave!" Season 2, Episode 29, The Obsolete Man Romney Wordsworth rebels against society in "The Obsolete Man." His best quote from this episode is, "I am a human being! And if I speak one thought aloud, that thought lives, even after I've been shoveled into my grave!" The quote holds great power even without the context of the episode.
13 "There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices, to be found only in the minds of men." Season 1, Episode 22, The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street "The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street" is another one of the most memorable The Twilight Zone episodes. Based on McCarthyism and the Salem Witch Trials, the episode once again showcases how destructive humans can be, especially when in a state of fear.
11 "There's one thing we can't simulate that's a very basic need. Man's hunger for companionship. The barrier of loneliness, that's one thing we haven't licked yet." Season 1, Episode 1, Where Is Everybody? In "Where Is Everybody," Sergeant Mike Ferris is in a town by himself, not realizing he's actually been put in an observation booth to see if he could survive a trip to the moon on his own.
9 "A sickness known as hate. Not a virus, not a microbe, not a germ—but a sickness nonetheless, highly contagious, deadly in its effects. Don't look for it in the Twilight Zone—look for it in a mirror. Look for it before the light goes out altogether." Season 5, Episode 26, I Am The Night–Color Me Black "I Am The Night–Color Me Black" is one of The Twilight Zone's most powerful episodes.
Nevertheless, the quote speaks of the endless possibilities of the world, even if some things are less likely to happen. It's pretty ironic coming from The Twilight Zone, as the show has displayed some pretty unlikely occurrences in its episodes. However, as the quote says, nothing's impossible - which can be taken as inspirational or deeply troubling, depending on the viewers' own interpretation of the line.
While Paul may have his life by staying in the shelter, the others have honor. They know they treated Paul fairly based on his poor behavior, and they would rather leave the shelter with honor than survive with him in dishonor. The episode is ultimately about values, and by refusing Paul's offer, the trio prove they stand by their morals - to such an extent that they would sacrifice their lives to maintain them.
