Malcolm Crowe: Do you know what 'Yo no quiero morir' means? It's Spanish. It means 'I don't want to die.' What do you think these ghosts want when they talk to you? I want you to think about it, Cole. I want you to think about it really carefully.

Cole Sear: Just help.

Malcolm Crowe: That's right. That's what I think, too. They just want help, even the scary ones. I think I might know a way to make them go away.

Cole Sear: How?

Malcolm Crowe: Listen to them.

Cole Sear: What if they don't want help? What if they're just angry and they just want to hurt somebody?

Malcolm Crowe: I don't think that's the way it works.

Cole Sear: How do you know for sure?”
