Skye
- Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Pilot)
The secret is out. For decades, your organization stayed in the shadows, hiding the truth, but now we know--they're among us. Heroes... and monsters. The world is full of wonders... We can't explain everything we see. But our eyes are open. So what now? There are no more shadows for you to hide in. Something impossible just happened. What are you going to do about it?

But when I had just started, I had no idea what I was doing. I didn't know what else to do. I didn't know how to act, I just knew how to talk. And I think once I started understanding I was like, "I don't really want to learn how to act. I just want to keep learning how to talk." And I've always just been such a "people" studier. But I think, for me, the best schooling I could've ever gotten was from watching and listening to the world.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier - Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow
- You Need Us
You're not gonna put me in a prison. You're not gonna put any of us in a prison. You know why? Because you need us. Yes, the world is a vulnerable place. And yes, we helped make it that way. But we are the ones best qualified to defend it. So if you wanna arrest me, arrest me. You'll know where to find me.
- Peter Piper
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers? If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
- The Main Purpose of The Hunger Games
The Hunger Games series deals with the kind of cruel entertainment our kids today are exposed to in reality shows, interactive games, and other dehumanizing aspects of technology and how the media manipulates reality for us. In one of the early scenes, Katniss and Gale are talking and he points out that if people would refuse to watch the games, they would be stopped. That's exactly the point- why would people want to watch? Why throughout history have people gathered to watch others be violent?
John F. Kennedy
Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.
Professor X
- X2: X-Men United
Mutants. Since the discovery of their existence they have been regarded with fear, suspicion, often hatred. Across the planet, debate rages. Are mutants the next link in the evolutionary chain or simply a new species of humanity fighting for their share of the world? Either way it is a historical fact: Sharing the world has never been humanity's defining attribute.
Jack Bristow
- Alias
When I look at her, when I look at the little girl who raised herself to become one of the most extraordinary human beings and one of the finest agents I've ever had the privilege of knowing, I see only the promise of my own redemption. Turning myself in was the only way I could think of to make that clear to her, to prove that despite... my limited abilities as a father, I love her more than I could ever say.
Rachel Gibson
- Alias
I'm the new girl, I panicked on the last mission, and everybody's questioning whether I can do it or not. And the truth is... I don't know. I'm terrified. But I'm more terrified of not trying. So I'm gonna put on my strappy shoes and my tiny dress and I'm gonna try. And by this time tomorrow, we'll know if I can do it or not.
Jack Bristow
- Alias
Surprised you didn't get the reference. Modified kaexelate cocktail washed with tetrodotoxin presented in a bottle of Chambertin Clos de Bez. Just like we used in Saigon. But understand, this was not done out of compassion. I orchestrated this because and only because I need you.
Sydney Bristow
- Alias- Season 3- Episode 1
You didn't come here to see how I am. You came here to see how you were, because you know in your heart what you did you want to make sure you're okay. What you came here for was closure. And there is not a chance you are getting that from me. I'm not gonna say I understand, I'm not gonna sympathize with you and tell you how hard it must be for you. But you wanna know how I am?! I am horrible! I am ripped apart! And not because I lost you, but because... if it had been me... I would have waited.
John Blake
- The Dark Knight Rises
Not a lot of people know what it feels like to be angry, in your bones. I mean, they understand, foster parents, everybody understands, for awhile. Then they want the angry little kid to do something he knows he can't do, move on. So after awhile they stop understanding. They send the angry kid to a boys home. I figured it out too late. You gotta learn to hide the anger, practice smiling in the mirror. It's like putting on a mask.
Jim Gordon

There's a point, far out there when the structures fail you, and the rules aren't weapons anymore, they're shackles letting the bad guy get ahead. One day you may face such a moment of crisis, and in that moment I hope you have a friend like I did, to plunge their hands into the filth so that you can keep yours clean!
Batman
- The Dark Knight Rises
A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended.
Selina Kyle
- The Dark Knight Rises
There's a storm coming, Mr. Wayne. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.
General Zod
- Man of Steel- You Are Not Alone Message

I'm not from the 60's, but I love The Beatles. I'm not from the 70's, but I love the original Star Wars trilogy. I'm not from the 80's, but I like listening to Madonna and Michael Jackson, and I love playing Pac-Man. I hardly grew up in the 90's, but I love Jurassic Park, and old cartoons like Animaniacs and Rugrats. I've grown up today in the 2000's and 2010's, and I couldn't be happier.
Nick Fury

There was an idea, Stark knows this, called The Avengers Initiative. The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable people, see if they could become something more. See if they could work together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never could.
Bruce Banner

I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth, but the "other guy" spit it out. So I moved on. I focused on helping other people. I was good until you dragged me back into this freak show and put everyone here at risk. Do you wanna know my secret, Agent Romanoff? You wanna know how I stay calm?

And don't worry, the big one is coming.
