Marlon: Where the hell's Fiji? Near Florida? Truman: [Pointing to golf ball] See here?
Marlon: Yeah.
Truman: This is us...[guides finger halfway around ball]
Truman: and all the way around here... Fiji. You can't get any further away before you start coming back.
Sylvia: Look at what you've done to him! Christof: I have given Truman the chance to lead a normal life. The world, the place you live in, is the sick place.
Truman: It was Dad. I swear! Dressed like a homeless man. And you know what else was strange? A business man and a woman with a little dog came out of nowhere and forced him onto a bus. Truman's Mother: Well! It's about time they cleaned up the trash downtown before we become just like the rest of the country.
Network Executive: For God's sake, Chris! The whole world is watching. We can't just let him die in front of a live audience! Christof: He was born in front of a live audience.
Truman: Lauren, right? It's on your book. Lauren: Lauren. Right. Right.
Truman: Well, I'm Truman.
Lauren: Yeah. I know. Look, Truman, I'm not allowed to talk to you. You know.
Truman: Yeah, well, I can understand, I'm a pretty dangerous character.
[Truman attempts to leave town and a convoy of cars pull in front to prevent his exit] Truman: Blocked at every turn. Beautifully synchronized, don't you agree?
Meryl: You're blaming me for the traffic?
Truman: Should I?
Meryl: Truman, let's go home.
Truman: You're right. We could be stuck here for hours. It could be like this all the way to Atlantic City. Let's go back. I'm sorry. I don't know what got into me.
Meryl: Truman, can you slow down?
Truman: Yes, I can.
Meryl: Truman. Truman, that's our turnoff.
Truman: I changed my mind. What's New Orleans like this time of year? Mardi Gras, woooooo! Ha ha ha ha ha! Hoo hoo hoo! Whoooohoo! Look, Meryl! Same road, no cars. It's magic! Hahaha!
Meryl: You let me out, Truman. You're not right in the head! You want to destroy yourself, you do it on your own!
Truman: I think I'd like a little company.
Young Truman: I want to be an explorer, like the Great Magellan. Teacher: [indicating a map of the world] Oh, you're too late! There's nothing left to explore!
[Meryl is describing a product] Truman: Who are you talking to? Truman: [to an unseen Christof] Who are you? Christof: [voice-over] I am The Creator - of a television show that gives hope and joy and inspiration to millions.
Truman: Then who am I?
Christof: You're the star.
Truman: Was nothing real?
Christof: You were real. That's what made you so good to watch.
[Truman is missing] Network Executive: [hanging up a phone call] The sponsors are threatening to rip up their contracts!
Christof: [pointing at the "Technical fault... Please stand by..." graphic] Why? We're getting higher ratings for this graphic than we've ever had on this show.
[last lines] Security Guard 1: You want another slice?
Security Guard 2: No, I'm OK.
Security Guard 1: What else is on?
Security Guard 2: Yeah, let's see what else is on.
Security Guard 1: Where's the TV guide?
