Movie quotes

  • (..) - And the best strategy... - But if I'm in the back, how do I get to him? The race will bring him to you. With each successive lap, there will be fewer and fewer chariots. Which is why it's important for you to stay back. And remember, Judah, first to finish, last to die. (SOLDIERS SHOUTING) (..)
