Quotes 

• Goliath : That must be the Matrix! Come! We have no time to lose!

  [runs off] 

  Dingo : Eh. Why not? Always did fancy a trip to Disneyland.

• Dingo : The Dream Time?

  The Shaman : It is all around you. A dimension parallel to this one. A world of *mind* and heart. Find the Dream Time and you'll free your soul.

  Dingo : Well, I want a clean slate, make a fresh start. If that's what it needs, then I'm for it... Now, uh, you won't be coming along, right?

  The Shaman : This quest is yours alone. No one will disturb you on it.

  Dingo : That's the ticket. Cheers, cobber!

• Goliath : What do you know of this?

  Dingo : What makes you think I know *anything* about it?

  Elisa Maza : Somehow I doubt it's a coincidence that you're here.

  Dingo : ME? What about you, Sheila? *You're* the ones a long way from home! This is MY country! By the way, you're welcome.

  Goliath : He did help save Angela and myself. We'll accept your story... for now.

• Goliath : What is this "nanotechnology"?

  Dingo : Tiny robots, each smaller than a germ. Coyote used to say it was the wave of the future.

  Angela : What do they do?

  Dingo : Anything you want 'em to. They're programmed to keep building more and more of themselves. When you have billions of the little buggers all working together, they can do just about anything, in a big hurry.

  Elisa Maza : It's unbelievable.

  Dingo : Not really. Old Mother Nature's been doing the same job for millions of years. She just uses proteins and enzymes instead of machines.

• Angela : But could not these machines transform us as well?

  Dingo : I wouldn't want to stay and test my luck. Let's get out of here!

• Dingo : What? Talk to a machine?

  Anastasia Renard : It's more than a machine now. It's an Artificial Intelligence!

  Fox : But it thinks a billion times faster than we do. We can't communicate with it in real time!

  The Shaman : Then you must seek it in the Dream Time.

• Goliath : If you continue, you will destroy the world!

  Matrix : The world is imperfect. We shall make it pure, pristine. Nothing must interfere with our directive!

• Goliath : Matrix, you must listen to me! Order is not frozen perfection. It's dynamic, evolving!

  Matrix : We are programmed to create order.

  Goliath : You're not creating! You are negating! Your peace is that of the grave!

  Matrix : But we must pursue order!

  Dingo : Oh, listen mate, there's another kind of order: *law* and order. Eh? Now that's something you'd be real good at!

• Dingo : [to Elisa as they're about to see the Shaman]  Uh say, uh, maybe just you and me ought to go in? I don't wanna give the old geezer a heart attack.

  [Elisa and Dingo see the Shaman] 

  The Shaman : Ah, you have returned. Why not bring your other guests into the light?

  [Goliath and Angela step forth] 

  The Shaman : Ah, you are from the Dream Time.
