Sample dialogue
It's not your fault. Like the animals you are, you never learn unless sufficiently prodded. Pleasure has no lasting effect. But subject you to pain, unpleasantness -- suffering -- and you will take notice, you will fight to overcome, to earn your redemption. That is when you're at your best.
scene 138 — INT. NORMAL PHYSICAL THERAPY ROOM - REAL TIMEKeep your voice down.
scene 57 — INT. THEOLOGICAL SOCIETY - LATEREach of you is born with the promise of salvation preordained. The cost of your redemption is simple belief. And yet you whine about impossible rules. Sometimes I imagine you hardly deserve the gift you have been given.
scene 57 — INT. THEOLOGICAL SOCIETY - LATERYou never deserved to be blessed. You've all been born with a silver spoon in your mouth, never really appreciating the gift you were given so freely -- unconditional love from your creator.
scene 138 — INT. NORMAL PHYSICAL THERAPY ROOM - REAL TIMEThen pass judgment on me now.
scene 143 — INT. CORRIDOR
Bookends
Deny your true nature today, but what of tomorrow, of the tomorrow after that? It is only a matter of time before you end up right back where you belong. It is who you are, Constantine. Damned.
