Saito Elephants!
Arthur Right, but it's not your idea because you know I gave it to you. The subject's mind can always trace the genesis of the idea. True inspiration is impossible to fake...
Cobb That's not true.
Saito Can you do it ?
Cobb Are you offering me a choice ? Because I can find my own way to square things with Cobol.
Saito Then you do have a choice.
Cobb I choose to leave Sir.

Cobb What's the most resilient parasite? A bacteria? Virus? Intestinal worm?
Arthur What Mr. Cobb is trying to say..
Cobb An idea. Resilient, highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain, it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed, fully understood - [pointing to his head] that stays, right in there somewhere.
Saito For someone like you to steal?
Arthur Yes, in dream state your conscious defense are lowered. It makes your thoughts vulnerable to theft. It's called extraction.
Cobb Mr. Saito, we can train your subconscious to defend itself against even the most skilled extractor.
Saito How can you do that?
Cobb Because I am the most skilled extractor.
