X-Men Quotes

Rogue: Hey.
[Logan turns and looks at her]
Rogue: You running again?
Logan: No, not really. I've got some things to take care of up north.
Rogue: Oh.
[They stand in silence for a few moments, then Logan reaches out and plays with her hair, which now has a prominent white streak. She jumps back a

little and then smiles]
Rogue: I kinda like it.
Logan: Yeah.
Rogue: I don't want you to go.
[Logan looks around at his small pack of stuff and then undoes his dog tags. Then he takes her hand, places them inside, then pushes her fingers over them. She looks up at him]
Logan: I'll be back for

this.
[He turns and walks out the door with her staring after him, smiling]

Logan: [finds Rouge stowing away in his trailer] What the hell are you doin'?
Rogue: I'm sorry. I needed a ride. I thought you might help me.
Logan: Get out!
Rogue: Where am I supposed to go?
Logan: I don't know.
Rogue: You don't know or you don't care?

Logan: [in a cynical tone] Pick one!

Senator Kelly: I have here a list of names of identified mutants living right here in the United States.
Dr. Jean Grey: Senator...
Senator Kelly: Here's a girl in Illinois who can walk through walls. Now what's to stop her from walking into a bank vault, or the White House, or
[indicating the gallery]
Senator

Kelly: into their houses?
Dr. Jean Grey: Senator, please...
Senator Kelly: ...and there are even rumors, Miss Grey, of mutants so powerful that they can enter our minds and control our thoughts, taking away our God-given free will. Now I think the American people deserve the right to decide if they want their children to be in school with

mutants. To be taught by mutants! Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is that mutants are very real, and that they are among us. We must know who they are, and above all, what they can do!

[Logan has found his way to the Professor's office]
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: I'm Charles Xavier. Would you like some breakfast?
Logan: Where am I?
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Westchester, New York. My people brought you here for medical attention.
Logan: I don't need medical attention.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Yes, of course.

Magneto: You "homo sapiens" and your guns!
[Sabretooth suddenly grabs Magneto by the throat]
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: [through Sabretooth] That's enough, Eric!
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: [through Toad] Let them go!
Magneto: Why not come out where I can see you, Charles?
Prof.

Charles Francis Xavier: What do you want her for?
Magneto: [taps his helmet] Can't you read my mind?... What now? Save the girl? You'll have to kill me, Charles. And what will that accomplish? Let them pass that law, and they'll have you in chains with a number burned into your forehead!
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: It won't be that way!

Magneto: Then kill me and find out.
[pause]
Magneto: No? Then release me.
[pause, Toad turns away, freed from the control, but Sabretooth retains his grip]
Magneto: Fine.
[sets off the guns with his magnetism, halting the bullets before they pierce the policemen's bodies]
Magneto:

Care to press your luck, Charles? I don't think I can stop them all.
[Sabretooth releases Magneto]
Magneto: Still unwilling to make sacrifices. That's what makes you weak. Goodbye, Charles.

Dr. Jean Grey: I think you'll be comfortable here.
Wolverine: Where's your room?
Dr. Jean Grey: With Scott, down the hall.
Wolverine: Is that your gift? Putting up with that guy?
Dr. Jean Grey: Actually, I'm telekinetic. I can move things with my mind.
Wolverine:

Really? What kind of things?
Dr. Jean Grey: [shuts closet doors behind him with her mind] All kinds of things. I also have some telepathic ability.
Wolverine: Like the Professor?
Dr. Jean Grey: Nowhere near that powerful. But he's teaching me to develop it.
Wolverine: I'm sure he is. So read my mind.

Dr. Jean Grey: I'd rather not.
Wolverine: C'mon. You afraid you might like it?
Dr. Jean Grey: I doubt it.

Wolverine: What did she do to me...?
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Whenever Rogue touches someone, she takes their energy: their life force. In the case of mutants, she absorbs their gifts for a short while; in your case your ability to heal.
Wolverine: Felt like she killed me...
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier:

If she held on any longer, she could have.

Dr. Jean Grey: [after examining Wolverine] The metal is an alloy called adamantium, supposedly indestructible. It's been surgically grafted to his entire skeleton.
Storm: How could he have survived a procedure like that?
Dr. Jean Grey: His mutation. He has uncharted regenerative capabilities, enabling him to heal rapidly. It also

makes his age impossible to determine. He could very well be older than you, Professor.
Cyclops: Who did this to him?
Dr. Jean Grey: He doesn't know. Nor does he remember anything about his life before it happened.
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Experimentation on mutants. It's not unheard of, but I've never seen anything like

this before.
Cyclops: What do you think Magneto wants with him?
Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: I'm not entirely sure it's him Magneto wants.

[to Senator Kelly]
Magneto: Are you a God-fearing man, Senator? That is such a strange phrase. I've always thought of God as a teacher; a bringer of light, wisdom, and understanding. You see, I think what you really fear is me. Me and my kind. The Brotherhood of Mutants. Oh, it's not so surprising really. Mankind has always feared what it doesn't understand. Well, don't

fear God, Senator, and certainly don't fear me. Not any more.
[goes to activate his machine]
Senator Kelly: What are you going to do?
Magneto: Let's just say, God works too slow.

Stu: You owe me some money.
Stu's friend: Come on, Stu.
Stu: No one takes a beating like that without a mark to show for it.
Stu's friend: Come on, Stu...
Stu: [leans in, whispering] I know what you are.
Wolverine: You lost your money. You keep this up you'll

lose something else.
