Daniel Plainview

The fictional main character in the 2007 movie "There Will Be Blood", Daniel Plainview is many things. He is an Oil Man. He is a family man. It has even been said that he is the third revelation.

Frequently drunk and angry, he epitomizes everything I wish I could be. He beats up religious leaders, threatens to kill powerful men for talking about his family, is an expert on drainage, and a milkshake connoisseur as well. In short, a complete badass in every way.

Daniel Plainview's Famous Quotes:

"Did you just tell me how to raise my family, Tilford? One of these days I'm going to come to you, wherever you sleep, and I'm going to cut your throat."

"DRAIIIIIINAGE! Drainage, Eli, you BOY! Here, if you have a milkshake, and I have a milkshake. And I also have a straw, see there it is. And my straw - are you watching? - my straw reaches acrooooooossss the room and starts to drink your milkshake. I. Drink. Your... MILKSHAKE! *SSSSSLURP* I DRINK IT UP!"

"I look at people sometimes and I see nothing to like... I hate most people."
