Westwalker, the holy way opens

Prosperity is withered, superior to the gorgeousness of the moment, but trying to stay in the gorgeousness forever, deep and unable. The withered world is overflowing deeply and obsessively. It can be robbed and killed everywhere, and it can be played everywhere, and it cannot be let go. If it is not deep, you need the Bible; if you don't let it go, you need the Bible.
He is not a knight who prancing horses and swords, he is a saint who bears proverbs.
For those traveling westward, the desert and raging sand are just the foundation, but for those traveling westward, faith is nothing more.

The Book of Eli quotes

  • Eli: They say the war tore a hole in the sky, you've probably heard the stories.

    Solara: Yeah.

    Eli: The war tore a hole in the sky, the sun came down, burnt everything, everyone, I wandered, I didn't really know what I should do or where I was going. I was just moving from place to place, trying to stay alive. And then one day I heard this voice. I don't know how to explain it, it's like it was coming from inside me. But I could hear it clear as day. Clear as I can hear you talking to me now. It told me to carry the book west, it told me that a path would be laid out before me, that I'd be led to a place where the book would be safe. It told me I'd be protected, against anyone or anything that tried to stand in my way. If only I would have faith. That was thirty years ago and I've been walking ever since.

    Solara: And you did all this because a voice told you to?

    Eli: I know what I hear, I know what I heard, I know I'm not crazy, I didn't imagine it

  • Hoyt: [seeing two dead hijackers] It's like he's protected somehow. Like there's nothing that can touch him

    Carnegie: Oh, he's just a fucking man. You put a bullet in him, he'll go down like any other.
