Grief (1995)

Tony Shalhoub: The Emir

Quotes 

• The Emir : I demand reparation! My son was cruelly and unfairly taken from me!

  Anubis : On the contrary, death is the ultimate fairness. Rich and poor, young and old, all are equal in death. You would not like to see the Jackal God play favorites. Think what you are doing: all over the world there is birth, but no death. Our planet cannot support so many lives at once.

• The Emir : Hear me, Guardian of the Gate. I demand a favor.

  Anubis : I grant *one* boon, mortal. And it will be given to you as it is given to everyone - when the time comes.

• Anubis : Death is always pointless - that is the point.

  The Emir : Don't toy with me, jackal god! I want my son back! I will make you give him back!

  Anubis : What you ask is unthinkable. Your son has passed. Let him rest. Death comes to us all.

  The Emir : Not anymore! With you trapped here forever, death has no sting! No one can die! And so my threat is very real.

• The Emir : [to the Pack]  You're not needed here now. Leave me!

  Coyote : Xanatos will want to know if you've secured immortality for him.

  The Emir : He'll get his report when I'm ready. Not before! Now go!

• The Emir : Take these interlopers out and dispose of them!

  Coyote : Is that an order, Emir?

  The Emir : YES! Get rid of them!

  Coyote : Cheerfully!
