Ghost Rider Quotes
Stunt motorcyclist Johnny Blaze gives up his soul to become a hellblazing vigilante, to fight against power hungry Blackheart, the son of the devil himself.
[last lines]
Caretaker: [voiceover] It's said that the West was built on legends. And that legends are a way of understanding things greater than ourselves. Forces that shape our lives, events that defy explanation. Individuals whose lives soar to the heavens or fall to the earth. This is how legends are born.

Mephistopheles: [after Blaze defeats Blackheart] Congradulations, Johnny. You upheld your end of the bargain. It's time I take back the power of the Ghost Rider. You get your life back. The love you've always wanted. You can start a family of your own. There are more deals to be made. More people willing to give their souls for what they desire. Let someone else carry this curse. You're free now. After all... a deal's a deal.
Johnny Blaze: [looks to Roxanne; points to Mephistopheles, his hand burning as fire flashes in his eyes] No. I'm gonna own this curse... and I'm gonna use it against you. Whenever innocent blood is spilt, it'll be my father's blood... and you'll find me there. A spirit of vengeance... fighting fire with fire.
Mephistopheles: [angered] I will make you pay for this.
Johnny Blaze: You can't live in fear.
Mephistopheles: [shouts] NO!

Caretaker: San Venganza's 500 miles from here. We'd better get going.
[walks on]
Johnny Blaze: [following the Caretaker] We?
[Caretaker whistles and a black horse comes trotting out of the mist]
Caretaker: I've got one last ride left in me.
[the Caretaker mounts the horse, donning a ten-gallon hat, and transforms into a Ghost Rider]
Johnny Blaze: [grins knowingly] Carter Slade.
[Slade slowly nods his head]
Johnny Blaze: Can YOU keep up?
[Slade's horse transforms into a fiery phantom steed]
Johnny Blaze: Let's ride!
[Johnny mounts his bike, turning into the Ghost Rider]

Caretaker: Contract of San Venganza.
Caretaker: [Johnny reaches for the Contract, Caretaker pulls it away] Hell on Earth.
Johnny Blaze: Now you're gonna have to trust me.
Caretaker: Why is that?
Johnny Blaze: He may have my soul but he doesn't have my spirit.
Caretaker: Any man that's got the guts to sell his soul for love has got the power to change the world. You didn't do it for greed, you did it for the right reason. Maybe that puts God on your side. To them that makes you dangerous, makes you unpredictable. That's the best thing you can be right now.

Johnny Blaze: [approaching Blackheart] How does it feel to have all that evil inside of you? All their power?
[turns into the Ghost Rider]
Ghost Rider: All their souls? A thousand souls to burn. Look into my eyes. Your souls are stained with the blood of the innocent. Feel their pain.
[Blackheart starts screaming and goes into a catonic state. The Ghost Rider throws him on the floor]
Ghost Rider: [looks up at Roxanne, the flames dim. Roxanne reaches out her hand to touch him. Ghost Rider recoils] Monster.
Roxanne Simpson: I'm not afraid.

Motorcycle Gang Member: Yeah, really.
[jabs Blackheart in the chest]

Caretaker: [Changed back into human, as Johnny is about to head to San Venganza] This is the end of the trail for me. I got nothing left, I could only change one more time and I was saving it for this. God knows I made my share of mistakes. I've been trying to make them right ever since. All I can do is hope he sees fit to give me a second chance.
Johnny Blaze: Thank you.
Caretaker: No. Thank you, kid.
[Caretaker/Slade tips his hat at Johnny and rides off, disappearing]

[before the big Touchdown Jump, Johnny Blaze and Randall "Mack" Mackenzie stand at the top of the acceleration ramp, overlooking the 300 ft jump]
Mack: Thank God you listened to me, took the cars out. It would've been suicide otherwise This way if you come up short, see, you'll come down on some nice, soft, green... grass?
[Mack looks up at the sound of the stadium dome being opened. Six Blackhawk helicopters slowly descend towards the field]
X Games Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, Johnny Blaze will not be jumping 50 cars today as scheduled; but instead, he will be leaping six UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters. Never before has any man attempted such a death-defying stunt.
[Mack turns and glares at Johnny]
Johnny Blaze: [shrugs] I took the cars out.
Mack: [as the helicopters land on the field] Why? Why JB? Why wouldn't you tell me?
Johnny Blaze: Well, because you would have thrown a fit.
Mack: Call me old-fashioned, I'm funny that way. Human sacrifice makes me uncomfortable. Why, JB? Why helicopters, man?
Barton Blaze: [a flashback to Barton discussing a new idea for a jump with young Johnny] You know what I've been thinking about? A new stunt. But instead of the cars or the ring of fire, a helicopter.
Johnny Blaze: My dad thought it'd be cool.
Mack: [Mack pauses, and glances down towards the helicopters again, before turning back with a sigh] He was right.

Barton Blaze: You're a hotshot, ain't you, boy? Young, think you know everything there is to know. Think you're gonna live forever. Is that about right?
Young Johnny Blaze: Aw, come on, Dad. It was a patch of dirt.
Barton Blaze: Ahem, that's not the point. Point is, we've been doing this act less a week. You're already screwing around.
Young Johnny Blaze: I was just doing it for the crowd.
Barton Blaze: We both know why you done it. You think she's gonna stand by you when you're in a wheelchair? Huh? Huh, hotshot?
Young Johnny Blaze: Aw, come on, Dad. It was a patch of dirt.

Mephistopheles: What's wrong, Johnny? Worried about your father?
Young Johnny Blaze: What do you know about that?
Mephistopheles: Even a blind man can see he's sick. Thing about cancer is the time it takes... the toll on loved ones. Lives that are altered. Plans that have to be changed. Johnny, what if I could help your dad?
Young Johnny Blaze: Yeah? How?
Mephistopheles: How is not important. What if I could make him better? Give him back his health? Would you be willing to make a deal?
Young Johnny Blaze: Name your price.
Mephistopheles: Oh. I'll take...
[looks around]
Mephistopheles: ...your soul.
Young Johnny Blaze: [chuckles] Okay.
Mephistopheles: By sunrise tomorrow, your father will be healthy as a horse. And you will have your whole life ahead of you. It's your choice, Johnny.
[brings out Pactum Pactorum]
Mephistopheles: All you have to do is sign.
[Johnny looks at it and his thumb gets cut on top of scroll, his blood drips on the signature line]

Caretaker: [Johnny turns around to get his bike] It does.
Johnny Blaze: [turns around] What?
Caretaker: If you're wondering if your bike looks normal, it does. And to answer your next question: last night did happen.
Johnny Blaze: Who are you?
Caretaker: [points at Johnny] Who are you?
Caretaker: [Johnny turns around and walks away; Caretaker calls] You're the Ghost Rider!
Johnny Blaze: [turns around] What?

Mack: [about Johnny's arrest] Yeah, well, if this gets out in the press, his career is over.
Roxanne Simpson: Yeah, trust me, his career's the least of it.
Mack: You know, you seem like a nice lady, and you're purty and all but we were riding the gravy train on biscuit wheels around here, and then you showed up, everything went to hell. So why don't you just go back to wherever it is you came from?
Roxanne Simpson: I can't go back. Not now.
Mack: Then tell me what the hell's goin' on!
Roxanne Simpson: You wouldn't believe me if I told you. Look, you don't know me, but I love him. So if there's anything you know that can help, anything...
Mack: Okay, well, lately he's been readin' these really weird books, and they're messin' with his mind, you know. And he's writin' stuff down, and he's stayin' up late. And he does it over here. You can go through his stuff, and I don't know if it means anything.

Roxanne Simpson: [after Johnny tells her he's the Devil's Bounty Hunter] The way I see it is I've got a couple of choices: I could either accept that you really believe what you're telling me is true, & take you to the nearest psychiatric hospital.
Johnny Blaze: You see, now that...
Roxanne Simpson: Or, I realize that you'd rather make up ridiculous stories than be honest with me... and I walk out of that door... forever.
Johnny Blaze: You see, now that...
Roxanne Simpson: Or, I realize that you'd rather make up ridiculous stories than be honest with me... and I walk out of that door... forever.
Johnny Blaze: [Blaze's crew looks at him incredulously after watching footage of his crash] What?
Mack: "What". You should be taking a dirt nap after that ragdoll today.
Johnny Blaze: I got lucky.
Mack: No, I got a huntin dog named Lucky. He's got one eye and no nuts. Luck don't cover it, JB. Man, you got an angel looking after you.
Johnny Blaze: Yeah maybe.

Roxanne Simpson: So, could you tell us about The Good Samaritan?
Girl in Alley: Well, I'll never forget him, that's for sure. He was tall, broad shoulders, and thin, really thin, like bony. He had this rad chopper, it was all flames and stuff. Oh, and his face was a skull and it was on fire.
Roxanne Simpson: "On fire?"
Girl in Alley: Yeah, like...
[hisses and mimes flames with her hands]
Girl in Alley: ... like that much fire, and I know it sounds weird but it looked good on him. I mean, it was an edge look but he totally pulled it off.
