Minority Report

ANDERTON: You're talking about predetermination, which happens all the time.

ANDERTON: Why did you catch that?

WITWER: Because it was going to fall.

ANDERTON: You're certain?

WITWER: Yes.

ANDERTON: But it didn't fall. You caught it.

ANDERTON: The fact that you prevented it from happening doesn't change the fact that it was going to happen.

WITWER: You ever get any false positives? Someone intends to kill his boss or his wife, but they never go through with it. How do the precogs tell the difference?

ANDERTON: The Precogs don't see what you intend to do, only what you will do.

WITWER: Then why can't they see rapes, or assaults... or suicides?

FLETCHER: Because of the nature of murder.
"There's nothing more destructive to the metaphysical fabric that binds us than the untimely murder of one human being by another".

WITWER: Somehow, I don't think that was Walt Whitman.

ANDERTON: It was Iris Hineman. She developed the Precogs, designed the system and pioneered the interface.

WITWER: Speaking of interfacing, I'd love to say hello.

ANDERTON: To Hineman?

WITWER: To them.

ANDERTON: Cops aren't allowed inside the temple.

WITWER: Really? You've never been inside?

ANDERTON: We keep a strict separation so that no one can accuse us of tampering.

WITWER: So I'll be the first one to go in then?

ANDERTON: Maybe you didn't hear me.

WITWER: If it's a question of authority.

ANDERTON: There's no question. You don't have any.

WITWER: I have a warrant in my pocket that says different.

ANDERTON: Show it to me.

WITWER: Contrary to what you might think, this experiment is being conducted under the supervision and with the express permission of the Attorney General of the United States. I'm here as his representative. Which means... you're now operating under my supervision.

WITWER: It seems you've been left out of the loop, John.
