Matrix Neo Quotes

She’s like Bruce Lee, the Hulk and Neo from The Matrix all rolled in to one.

Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Neo: What truth? Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind.

The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it. Morpheus, The Matrix

Before the man could answer V cursed "If I have to hear all that Keanu Reeves, Matrix, I am Neo' kind of shit my head's going to explode." "Don't you mean Neon?" Butch shot back "Cause he reminds me of the Citgo sign." Wraths head turned "Shut the fuck up. All of you.

There is always a price to pay for badassery. Neo was a badass in the Matrix and the Matrix Reloaded, but the price he had to pay was The Matrix Revolutions.

I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You're the one that has to walk through it Morpheus, The Matrix

People fear that being trapped inside a box, they will miss out on all the wonders of the world. As long as Neo is stuck inside the matrix, and Truman is stuck inside the TV studio, they will never visit Fiji, or Paris, or Machu Picchu. But in truth, everything you will ever experience in life is within your own body and your own mind. Breaking out of the matrix or travelling to Fiji won’t make any difference. It’s not that somewhere in your mind there is an iron chest with a big red warning sign ‘Open only in Fiji!’ and when you finally travel to the South Pacific you get to open the chest, and out come all kinds of special emotions and feelings that you can have only in Fiji. And if you never visit Fiji in your life, then you missed these special feelings for ever. No. Whatever you can feel in Fiji, you can feel anywhere in the world; even inside the matrix.

You have to let it all go, Neo. Fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free your mind. Morpheus, The Matrix

Welcome to the desert of the real. Morpheus, The Matrix

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill – you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember, all I'm offering is the truth – nothing more.

Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon - that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth. Neo: What truth? Spoon boy: There is no spoon.

Morpheus: Rest, Neo...The Answers Are Coming

NEO What truth? MORPHEUS That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else, you were born into bondage, kept in a prison that you cannot smell, taste, or touch. A prison for your mind.

As long as Neo is stuck inside the matrix and Truman is stuck inside the TV studio, they will never visit Fiji, Paris, or Machu Picchu. But in truth, everything you will ever experience in life is within your own body and your own mind.

Neo: What is it? Trinity: A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it. The Matrix, 1999

So, will you LEAP?!!! Once you have leapt, there’s no way back. It’s a one-time leap. It will define the rest of your life. You must absolutely commit. There can be no half-measures and no half-heartedness. It’s all or nothing. Kierkegaard certainly got that right. The leap must be a transformative event, alchemical, transmutative. Remember Neo in The Matrix. He had to master the “Jump Program” and leap from one skyscraper to another across an impossibly wide gap. If you’re going to make that leap, if you’re going to succeed, you must be SURE. Doubt is fatal. If you choke, you die. When invading armies landed on foreign soil, they often burned their fleet so that there could be no retreat. It was win or perish. That’s how it must be. To leap or not to leap – that is the question. What leap shall it be? – faith, the senses or reason. Choose!

Life consists in action,' Aristotle said, 'and its end is a mode of action, not a quality.' The same with Hamlet, or Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita, or Neo in The Matrix: characters who have overcome their doubts and fears, then pushed them aside and acted. It is this action that elevates them into the realm of 'heroic figures.

I have been sent many images by a Morgellons sufferer of extraordinary phenomena found in the bodies of those with the syndrome. Among them are hollow filaments, fibers, crystals, silica (often in hexagram form), even insect-like synthetic 'creature' remarkably similar to the one inserted into Neo's belly by agents in the Matrix movie.... Those tested who do not have visible symptoms of Morgellons have been found to be infested with fiber cultures grown from their saliva, body tissue, and urine.... Morgellons is proliferating because the takeover is proliferating and you will see this massive increase with the introduction of 5G which this body-invasion technology is designed to interact with.

As it flares and spins, it’s more visible, more present, thus more euphoric. Neo is doing a “dress go spinny” and it’s giving him gender euphoria.

Neo: “You found me, I didn’t find you.” Neo wasn’t setting out to inspire others, he was just… living. And yet that was enough to change someone else’s life.

Note here Smith says “Neo” for the first time. This is showing you that he knows Neo’s true name, but will use it only if it helps him find Neo to hurt/end him. Neo’s true name is a tool to be used, not to show respect to the person it represents. When they speak to each other, Smith always calls him “Mister Anderson.

No filme, The Matrix, Neo finalmente encontra o criador da Matrix. Neo era “o escolhido”, e teria de definir quem vivia e quem morreria. Ele deveria aceitar a morte de todos, em nome de reiniciar a Matrix. O criador o colocou na condição de que ele decidiria o futuro de todos, em nome de uma causa maior, que seria reiniciar a Matrix rumo a uma Matrix. Similar fábula de Noé, o criador queria limpar a Matrix do fato de que deu errado de novo, e ele já havia feito isso antes, e dera errado também. O criador, decepcionado com sua criação, já havia destruído antes a Matrix. A Matrix era uma mentira contada aos habitantes. Eles vivem felizes, enquanto as máquinas os usavam como bateria humana. Neo, diferente dos outros, fez uma escolha diferente: ele voltou, não fugiu que nem Noé, covarde. Noé juntou algumas peças de animais e sua família, e ficou caladinho.

To jak słynna scena w filmie Matrix, kiedy Morfeusz podaje na dłoni dwie tabletki: niebieską i czerwoną, i uświadamia Neo, że po dokonaniu wyboru nie będzie mógł się wycofać: niebieska oznacza pozostanie we śnie w iluzji racjonalnego świata, czerwona to wyjście z matrixa i zobaczenie rzeczywistości oczami osoby przebudzonej.

His chosen name, “Neo,” literally means “new.” His deadname is “Thomas Anderson.” Thomas means “twin,” and “Anderson” means “son of Andrew,” and “Andrew” means “manly or masculine.” This means his name roughly translates to “twin of the manly or masculine.” This is your very first indicator of just how intentional these allegories are. You don’t accidentally pick a name that means “twin of the masculine” for a trans allegory.

Neo learns who Trinity is and says, “I thought you were a guy.” Her reply: “Most guys do.” Already you can see how some of this allegory isn’t subtext at all, but it very surface-level supertext once you know what to look for! But also note that if Trinity is Neo’s self-actualization, he’s saying to himself that he thought he was a guy. He thought his true self was a man, because that’s what society said he was. But he’s not! His fully realized self is a woman

Neo: “I’m not ‘the one.’ I’m just another guy.” Trinity: “No, Neo, that’s not true, it can’t be true.” She knows. She’s telling him straight up it can’t be true that you’re a guy

Something about dialysis units always reminds me of the film The Matrix—not the part where Neo is able to dodge bullets while moving in slow motion, but the part where people are plugged into the matrix through sockets at the back of their necks. That is more or less how dialysis works, and it seems totally barbaric.

First of all, we have no clear hero in this narrative. Who’s it meant to be? God? Moses? If it’s Jesus, then he doesn’t turn up until the third act. No, we need some clarity on who we’re meant to be rooting for.” “I see.” “And this Jesus character. Who is he? Is he a sort of Superman, last son of a dying planet? Is he more like Neo from The Matrix? That whole messianic thing has been done to death. What are we looking for? This is a story trying to be a thousand things at once.” She turned to Ben. “Are you sure this wouldn’t be better as a trilogy?

In the sort of virtual machine Hutchins ran on his server for malware observation, the researcher wants the malware to think it’s running in the wild, but without ever letting it interact with the actual internet; otherwise it might start doing nasty things like sending spam or attacking other computers. So every attempt to connect with a web domain is answered with some arbitrary response, even if the website doesn’t actually exist. If the malware reaches out to an address its author knows doesn’t exist and still gets a response, it can cleverly deduce that it’s running in a simulation, like Neo in The Matrix after he’s taken the red pill. In that case, when the malware realizes it’s under the researcher’s microscope, it turns off its malicious features and behaves entirely innocently.

They say time slows down at times of great danger, almost like Neo being able to see and dodge bullets in The Matrix. That was just an illusion, of course. Time is constant. But Simon remembered reading that this particular time illusion was caused by how we store memory. The richer and denser the memory of an event—for example, during moments when you are terrified—the longer you perceive that event lasted. This phenomenon also explains why time seems to go faster as you age. When you’re a child, experiences are new and so your memories are fresh and intense—so again time seems to slow down. As you grow older, especially when you are stuck in a routine, very few new or vibrant memories are being laid and so time flies by. That’s why when a child looks back on summer, it seemed to last forever. For adults, it’s barely a blink.

Neo: You ever have that feeling where you're not sure if you're awake or still dreaming? Choi: All the time. It's called mescaline, it's the only way to fly

Agent Smith: Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist? Neo: Because I choose to.

MOBIUS: Neon, you’ve been living in the Nonprofit Matrix, a world controlled by wealthy individuals and corporations, who created a sector to delude people from seeing how they’re hoarding money, avoiding taxes, and furthering inequity while convincing people they are the solutions to the problems they cause. NEON: What are you talking about? I’m a good person. My nonprofit helps a lot of people. EQUITY: That’s true, it does. But remember that improv workshop you took once, where you learned about “Yes and”? NEO: Yes. And? EQUITY: You are helping people AND you are helping capitalism uphold itself by charity-washing its most egregious offenses. You see, by setting up foundations and donating to nonprofits, the extremely wealthy get to feel good about themselves while the masses are tricked into believing excessively wealthy people are good. This is how wealth disparity maintains itself.

If we’re indeed, like Neo in THE MATRIX, “living in a dream world,” the inevitable questions then become: Can we wake up? If so, how do we wake up? What exactly awaits us if and when we do wake up?

There's a scene in The Matrix where Neo is programmed with every fighting technique in the world before opening his eyes and saying, 'I know Kung Fu.' There's a similar thing with autistic girls and literature. I had no idea what people were saying. I struggled with socializing, so by reading as widely as possible, I was arming myself with knowledge about people, about how they spoke to each other, learning turns of phrase and metaphor that others - even Erin - recognized.
