Aquaman (2006 TV Movie)

Ving Rhames: McCaffery

Quotes 

• McCaffery : Once a siren has you in her gaze, there's nothing a man can do.

  Arthur Curry : A siren? Of course. You act like you see them all the time.

  McCaffery : I've seen my fair share. Unfortunately, my aim is a little rusty. The only way to kill those scaly bitches is to nail them between the eyes.

  Arthur Curry : Who are you?

  McCaffery : An exile like you and your mother.

  Arthur Curry : Exile from where?

  McCaffery : It's called different names by different cultures. You probably know by its most famous: Atlantis.

  Arthur Curry : Atlantis. Yeah. Next time you're in Atlantis, can you say hi to Captain Nemo and the Little Mermaid for me?

• McCaffery : You can't avoid your responsibility, Orin. It's in your bones and you know it.

  Arthur Curry : This is insane. I'm a dive shop owner. I'm not the protector ot the Seven Seas!

  McCaffery : Destiny is like a riptide. You never know it's pulling you until its too late.

• Arthur Curry : Henry IV Parts I and II. Hmm. Didn't really know Shakespeare was into sequels.

  McCaffery : I expect for you to have read them by next week.

  Arthur Curry : Uh, I gave up book reports in sixth grade.

  McCaffery : This is part of your training.

  Arthur Curry : Right. See, when you said training. I thought you meant, you know, wielding tridents and doing cool stuff in the water.

  McCaffery : All in due time. Don't worry. There's plenty sex and violence in there to keep you interested.

  Arthur Curry : Can't you just hit the highlights and tell me how it ends?

  McCaffery : The lesson isn't in the ending, Orin. It's in the journey.

• McCaffery : There are creatures in the deep you couldn't imagine in your worst nightmares.

  Arthur 'AC' Curry : Oh, thats reassuring. Thanks a lot.
