It's all a test, for everybody, even the members of the Adjustment Bureau.

David, you risked everything for Elise, And Elise, when you came through that door at the Statue of Liberty, you risked everything, too. But you inspired me. It seems like you inspired the Chairman,too.

This situation between the two of you is a serious deviation from the plan.So,the chairman rewrote it.

Most people live life on the path we set for them.Too afraid to explore any other .But once in a while,people like you come along who knock down all the obstacles we put in your way.People who realize free will is a gift you'll never know how to use until you fight for it.I think that's the Chairman's real plan. That may be one day, we won't write the plan. You will.

The Adjustment Bureau quotes

  • Harry Mitchell: [talks to David] You're going to look for her, aren't you? You won't find her. They'll make sure of it. Even if they weren't trying to stop you, there are nine million people in this city. You'll never find her. Forget about her. Move on with your life.

  • David Norris: What ever happened to Free Will?

    Thompson: We actually tried Free Will before. After taking you from hunting and gathering to the height of the Roman Empire we stepped back to see how you'd do on your own. You gave us the Dark Ages for five centuries... until finally we decided we should come back in. The Chairman thought maybe we just needed to do a better job of teaching you how to ride a bike before taking the training wheels off again. So we gave you the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, the Scientific Revolution. For six hundred years we taught you to control your impulses with reason, then in 1910 we stepped back. Within fifty years, you'd brought us World War I, the Depression, Fascism, the Holocaust and capped it off by bringing the entire planet to the brink of destruction in the Cuban Missile Crisis. At that point a decision was taken to step back in again before you did something that even we couldn't fix. You don't have free will, David. You have the appearance of free will.
