The Martian

"If we are going to have a secret project called 'Elrond', then I want my code name to be 'Glorfindel'."

"Hi, I'm Mark Watney and I'm still alive... obviously."

"Technically, Mars is international waters, meaning Maritime Law applies. And since I am illegally commandeering a vessel in international water under maritime law, that makes me a pirate. Mark Watney, Space Pirate."

"I admit it's fatally dangerous, but I'd get to fly around like Iron Man."

"I don't want to come off as arrogant here, but I'm the greatest botanist on this planet."

"Every human being has a basic instinct: to help each other out. If a hiker gets lost in the mountains, people will coordinate a search. If a train crashes, people will line up to give blood. If an earthquake levels a city, people all over the world will send emergency supplies. This is so fundamentally human that it's found in every culture without exception. Yes, there are assholes who just don't care, but they're massively outnumbered by the people who do."

"In the face of overwhelming odds, I'm left with only one option, I'm gonna have to science the shit out of this."

"I guarantee that at some point, everything is going south on you."
