The Best Walter Simmons Quotes

Walter: [the upload is complete] Yes. Mr. Serizawa start your engines!
Ren: The upgrade is untested. Once we get online, Gojira will come straight for us.
Walter: He's been coming for us since our creation first awoke. We must embrace it.
Ren: We shouldn't rush this. We have no idea how this energy source will affect the Mecha.
Walter: Get in the goddamn chair.

Walter: Godzilla has never attacked us unprovoked before. There are dangerous times, Dr. Lind.

Walter: I love crazy ideas. They made me rich.

Nathan: Can I help you? If you want an appointment, my office hours are nine to five.
Walter: Please, Dr. Lind.
Nathan: What the f...
Walter: Guys like you and me, we don't do normal hours, do we? I've been fixated on Hollow Earth for as long as you have. Your theory that it's the birthplace of all Titans is fascinating. Your book was very impressive.
Nathan: Oh, yeah? Well, I got about 30 unsold boxes in my apartment if you want some.
Walter: [introducing himself] Walt Simmons.
Nathan: I know who you are, sir. It's an honor.
Walter: No, the honor is mine. As is the urgency. Godzilla has never attacked us unprovoked before. These are dangerous times, Dr. Lind. Allow me to introduce our Apex chief technology officer, Mr. Ren Serizawa. He has an interesting thing to show you.
Ren: Magnetic imaging from one of our new satellites. You know what this is, right?
Nathan: Hollow Earth.
Walter: An ecosystem as vast as any ocean, right beneath our feet.
Nathan: This energy signal is enormous.
Ren: And almost identical to readings from Gojira.
Walter: As our sun fuels the planet's surface, this energy sustains the Hollow Earth, enabling life as powerful as our aggressive Titan friend. If we can harness this life force, we'll have a weapon that can compete with Godzilla. I need your help to find it.
Nathan: I don't know if I'm the right guy for the job. Did you read the reviews? A sci-fi quack trading in fringe physics. Look where they put my office. I'm in the basement right across from flute class. Besides, I'm not with Monarch anymore. And Hollow Earth entry is impossible. We tried.
Walter: I'm sorry about your brother. He was a true pioneer.
Nathan: Thanks.
Walter: See, all of our forward scans suggest a habitable environment down there. So, what really went wrong on your brother's mission?
Nathan: When they tried to enter, they hit a gravitational inversion. A whole planet's worth of gravity reversed in a split second. They were crushed in an instant.
Walter: What if I told you that we, at Apex, have created a phenomenal craft which could sustain such an inversion? The Hollow Earth Aerial Vehicle. HEAV. We can make the journey to Hollow Earth possible, Dr. Lind. But we need you to lead the mission. Help me. Help everyone. Finding this needle in a haystack is our best shot against Godzilla.
Nathan: Well, I, uh, might have an idea. But it's crazy.
Walter: I love crazy ideas. They made me rich.
Nathan: Are you guys familiar with genetic memory? It's a theory that all Titans share a common impulse to return to their evolutionary source.
Ren: Like spawning salmon.
Nathan: Exactly. Or a... Or a homing pigeon. So if this is the Titans' home and this life force sustains them...
Ren: A Titan could show you the way.
Nathan: Yeah. With a little help of an old colleague.

Walter: When we started Apex Cybernetics, we dreamt of new ways to push past the limits of human potential. Robotics, the human mind, artificial intelligence. Who knows what brave new future we'll dream of next? I'm Walter Simmons, and it is my privilege to lead Apex into humanity's bold new era. We're not going anywhere. And neither are you.

Madison: There can only be one alpha. It seems to have been providence.
Walter: There can only be one alpha, Miss Russell. It seems to have been providence.

Walter: What really went wrong on your brother's mission?
Nathan: When they tried to enter, they had a gravitational inversion; the whole planet's gravity reversed for a split second: they were crushed in an instant.

Walter: Where do I know you from? Oh, my goodness. Director Russell's daughter, yes?
Madison: You caused all of this.
Walter: If by "all of this", you mean I, and I alone, have given humanity a chance against the Titans, then, yes, I will own that title.
