matrix-quotes

In The Matrix, one of my top ten favorite films, a man is lead into an underworld where he’s forced to make a decision between the freedom of hard reality or the comfortable bliss of ignorance. It has themes of freedom, society and the nature of reality. Here’s a collection of some of the best quotes from the film.

Blake Miner

I'm a social scientist and entrepreneur fascinated by the psychology of personal freedom and location-independent business. Since selling a portion of my small language learning startup in 2018, I've spent time across 4 continents consulting with SaaS and web3 companies and exploring different cultures.

Matrix Quotes About Freedom

I’m trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You’re the one that has to walk through it.

Morpheus

I must get out of here. I must get free.

Smith

As long as the Matrix exists, the human race will never be free.

Morpheus
matrix-quotes 1

Free your mind.

Morpheus 

We’re willing to wipe the slate clean, give you a fresh start. All that we’re asking in return is your cooperation in bringing a known terrorist to justice.

Agent Smith

Choice is an illusion created between those with power and those without.

Merovingian
matrix-quotes 2

That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else, you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind.

Morpheus

I expect just what I’ve always expected, for you to make up your own damn mind. Believe me or don’t.

Oracle

Sooner or later you’re going to realize, just as I did, there’s a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

Morpheus
matrix-quotes 3

The Matrix Quotes About Reality

The answer is out there, Neo, and it’s looking for you, and it will find you if you want it to.

Trinity

Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?

Morpheus

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Morpheus
matrix-quotes 4

Your mind makes it real.

Morpheus

How do you define real? If you’re talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see, then “real” is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

Morpheus

Ever have that feeling where you’re not sure if you’re awake or dreaming?

Neo
matrix-quotes 5

Do you believe that my being stronger or faster has anything to do with my muscles in this place? You think that’s air you’re breathing now?

Morpheus

Welcome to the desert of the real.

Morpheus

Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions.

Agent Brown

I know what you’re thinking, ’cause right now I’m thinking the same thing. Actually, I’ve been thinking it ever since I got here. Why, oh why, didn’t I take the blue pill?

Cypher

The Matrix Quotes About The System and Society

Unfortunately, no one can be told what The Matrix is. You’ll have to see it for yourself.

Morpheus

The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save.

Morpheus

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

Morpheus

That’s how it is with people. Nobody cares how it works as long as it works.

Councillor Hamann

Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.

Morpheus

The Matrix Quotes About Human Nature

Human beings are a disease, cancer of this planet.

Agent Smith

Denial is the most predictable of all human responses.

The Architect

What do all men with power want? More power.

The Oracle
matrix-quotes 6

Let me tell you why you’re here. You know something. What you know, you can’t explain, but you feel it. You felt it your entire life. There’s something’s wrong with the world. You don’t know what, but it’s there. Like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I’m talking about?

Morpheus

The body cannot live without the mind.

Morpheus

To deny our own impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human.

Mouse

The Matrix Quotes About Love

It is remarkable how similar the pattern of love is to the pattern of insanity.

Merovingian

Karma is a word, like love. A way of saying, “What I am here to do.” I do not resent my karma. I’m grateful for it. Grateful for my wonderful wife, for my beautiful daughter. They are gifts, and so I do what I must do to honor them.

Rama-Kandra

The Matrix Quotes About Life & Fate

Everything that has a beginning has an end. I see the end coming. I see the darkness spreading. I see death. And you are all that stands in his way.

Oracle

There’s no escaping reason, no denying purpose. Because as we both know, without purpose, we would not exist.

Agent Smith
matrix-quotes 7

You hear that, Mr. Anderson? That’s the sound of inevitability, that’s the sound of your death, goodbye, Mr. Anderson.

Agent Smith

Hope. It is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength and your greatest weakness.

The Architect
matrix-quotes 8

You played a very dangerous game.

The Architect

I don’t like the idea that I’m not in control of my life.

Neo
