Steve Rogers Quotes:

  • Steve Rogers: Hi, I'm Captain America. Here to talk to you about one of the most valuable traits a student or soldier can have. Patience. Sometimes, patience is the key to victory. Sometimes, it leads to very little, and it seems like it's not worth it, and you wonder why you waited so long for something so disappointing... How many more of these?

  • Scott Lang: Ca... Captain America...

    [shakes Steve's hand vigorously]

    Steve Rogers: Mr. Lang.

    Scott Lang: It's an honor. I'm shaking your hand too long. Wow, this is awesome!

    [turns to Wanda]

    Scott Lang: Captain America! I know you, too. You're great!

    [sighs, then grips Steve's muscles]

    Scott Lang: Jeez... Uh, look, I wanna say, I know you know a lot of super-people so... thinks for thanking of me.

    [Steve grins]

    Scott Lang: [to Sam] Hey, man!

    Sam Wilson: What's up, Tic-Tac?

    Scott Lang: Uh, good to see you. Look, what happened last time was...

    Sam Wilson: It was a great audition, but it'll...

    [chuckles]

    Sam Wilson: It'll never happen again.

    Steve Rogers: Did he tell you what we're up against?

    Scott Lang: Something about some... psycho assassins?

    Steve Rogers: We're outside the law on this one, so if you come with us, you're a wanted man.

    Scott Lang: Yeah, well, what else is new?

  • Sam Wilson: So you like cats?

    Steve Rogers: Sam...

    Sam Wilson: What? Dude shows up dressed like a cat and you don't wanna know more?

    Steve Rogers: Your suit. It's vibranium?

    T'Challa: The Black Panther has been the protector of Wakanda for generations. A mantle passed from warrior to warrior. And now because your friend murdered my father, I also wear the mantle of king. So I ask you, as both warrior and king, how long do you think you can keep your friend safe from me?

  • Steve Rogers: He said 'Bucky' and suddenly I was that 16-year-old boy from Brooklyn again.

  • Steve Rogers: This job... we try to save as many people as we can. Sometimes that doesn't mean everybody. But if we can't find a way to live with that, next time... maybe nobody gets saved.

  • Tony Stark: [about his parents' deaths at Bucky's hands] Did you know?

    Steve Rogers: I didn't know it was him...

    Tony Stark: [struggling to keep his temper] Don't bullshit me, Rogers! Did you know?

    Steve Rogers: [hesitantly] Yes.

  • Steve Rogers: I'm sorry, Nat. I can't sign it.

    Natasha Romanoff: I know.

    Steve Rogers: Then why did you come here?

    Natasha Romanoff: Because I didn't want you to be alone.

  • Steve Rogers: [letter to Stark] Tony, I'm glad you're back at the compound. I don't like the idea of you rattling around a mansion by yourself. We all need family. The Avengers are yours, maybe more so than mine. I've been on my own since I was 18. I never really fit in anywhere, even in the army. My faith's in people, I guess. Individuals. And I'm happy to say that, for the most part, they haven't let me down. Which is why I can't let them down either. Locks can be replaced, but maybe they shouldn't. I know I hurt you, Tony. I guess I thought by not telling you about your parents I was sparing you, but I can see now that I was really sparing myself, and I'm sorry. Hopefully one day you can understand. I wish we agreed on the Accords, I really do. I know you're doing what you believe in, and that's all any of us can do. That's all any of us should... So no matter what, I promise you, if you need us - if you need me - I'll be there.

    [Tony looks at a flip phone Steve sent him]

  • Steve Rogers: [about Bucky] It wasn't him, Tony! Hydra had control of his mind!

    Tony Stark: MOVE!

    Steve Rogers: IT WASN'T HIM!

  • Bucky Barnes: Your mom's name was Sarah. You used to wear newspapers in your shoes.

    Steve Rogers: You can't read that in a museum.

    Sam Wilson: Just like that, we're supposed to be cool?

  • Steve Rogers: [Cap in Bucky's room, notices Bucky behind him. Turns around] Do you know me?

    Bucky Barnes: You're Steve. I read about you at the museum.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] They've set the perimeter.

    Steve Rogers: I know you're nervous. And you have plenty of reason to be. But you're lying.

    Bucky Barnes: I wasn't in Vienna. I don't do that anymore.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] They're entering the building.

    Steve Rogers: Well, the people who think you did are coming here now. And they're not planning on taking you alive.

    Bucky Barnes: That's smart. Good strategy.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] They're on the roof. I'm compromised.

    Steve Rogers: This doesn't have end in a fight, Buck.

    Bucky Barnes: It always ends in a fight.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] 5 seconds.

    Steve Rogers: YOU pulled me from the river. Why?

    Bucky Barnes: I don't know.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] 3 seconds!

    Steve Rogers: Yes, you do.

    Sam Wilson: [via comm] Breach! Breach! Breach!

    [Shots fired into the room]

  • Tony Stark: Hey, you wanna see something cool? I pulled something from Dad's archives. Timely. FDR signed the Lend-Lease bill with these in 1941. Provided support to the Allies when they needed most.

    Steve Rogers: Some would say it brought our country closer to war.

    Tony Stark: Steve, if not for these, you wouldn't be here. I'm trying to, what do you call it, a... an olive branch. Is that what you call it?

    Steve Rogers: Is Pepper here? I didn't see her.

    Tony Stark: We are kinda... well not kinda...

    Steve Rogers: Pregnant?

    Tony Stark: No, ha, definitely not. We're taking a break. It's nobody's fault.

    Steve Rogers: I'm so sorry, Tony. I didn't know.

    Tony Stark: A few years ago I almost lost her so I trashed all my suits. Then we had to mop up Hydra. Then Ultron, my fault. And then, and then, and then. I never stopped. 'Cause the truth is I don't wanna stop. I don't wanna lose her. I thought maybe the Accords can split the difference. In her defense, I'm a handful. Yeah dad was a pain in the ass, but he and mom always made it work.

    Steve Rogers: You know, I'm glad Howard got married. I only knew him when he was young and single.

    Tony Stark: Oh really? You two knew each other? He never mentioned that. Maybe only a thousand times. God, I hated you.

    Steve Rogers: I don't mean to make things difficult.

    Tony Stark: I know. Because you're a very polite person.

    Steve Rogers: If I see a situation pointed south, I can't ignore it. Sometimes I wish I could.

    Tony Stark: No, you don't.

    Steve Rogers: No, I don't. Sometimes...

    Tony Stark: Sometimes I wanna punch you in your perfect teeth. But I don't wanna see you gone. We need you, Cap. So far nothing's happen that can't be undone. Please, sign. We can make the last 24 hours legit. Barnes gets transferred to an American psych center instead of a Wakandan prison.

    Steve Rogers: I'm not saying it's impossible. But there would have to be safeguards.

    Tony Stark: Sure! Once we put out the PR - they're documents. They can be amended. I file a motion, have you and Wanda reinstated...

    Steve Rogers: Wanda? What about Wanda?

    Tony Stark: She's fine. She's confined in the compound currently. Vision's keeping her company.

    Steve Rogers: Oh God, Tony! Every time. Every time I think you're seeing things the right way...

    Tony Stark: It's a 100 acres with a lap pool. It's got a screening room. There's worse way to protect people. She's not a US Citizen and they don't grant visas to Weapons of Mass Destruction.

    Steve Rogers: Protection? Is that how you see this? This isn't protection, it's internment, Tony. Come on, she's a kid!

    Tony Stark: Gimme a break! I'm doing what has to be done, to save us from something worse.

  • Steve Rogers: I know we're not perfect, but the safest hands are still our own.

  • Steve Rogers: You remember that time we had to ride back from Rockaway Beach in the back of that freezer truck?

    Bucky Barnes: [grins] Was that the time you used our train money to buy hotdogs?

    Steve Rogers: You blew three bucks trying to win that stuffed bear for a redhead.

    Bucky Barnes: What was her name again?

    Steve Rogers: Dolores. You called her Dot.

    Bucky Barnes: She's gotta be a hundred years old right now...

    Steve Rogers: So are we, pal.

  • [from trailer]

    Tony Stark: Captain? You seem a little defensive.

    Steve Rogers: Well, it's been a long day.

    Tony Stark: If we can't accept limitations, we're no better than the bad guys.

    Steve Rogers: That's not the way I see it.

  • Natasha Romanoff: [Picked up cell phone] Yeah.

    Steve Rogers: You're alright?

    Natasha Romanoff: Uh. Yeah. Thanks. I got lucky.

    [Nat notices sirens from Cap's cellphone, indicating he's around the area]

    Natasha Romanoff: ... I know how much Barnes means to you. I really do... Stay home. You'll only make this worse for all of us. Please.

    Steve Rogers: Are you saying you'll arrest me?

    Natasha Romanoff: No... Someone will. If you interfere. That's how it works now.

    Steve Rogers: If he's this far gone, Nat. I should be the one to bring him in.

    Natasha Romanoff: Why?

    Steve Rogers: Cause I'm the one least likely to die trying.

  • Steve Rogers: Who else signed it?

    Natasha Romanoff: Tony, Rhody, Vision.

    Steve Rogers: Clint?

    Natasha Romanoff: Said he's retired.

    Steve Rogers: Wanda?

    Natasha Romanoff: TBD... I'm off to Vienna for the signing of the Accords. There's plenty of room on the jet. Just because it's the path of least resistance doesn't mean it's the wrong path. Staying together is more important that how we stay together.

    Steve Rogers: What are we giving up to do it?... Sorry, Nat. I can't sign it.

    Natasha Romanoff: I know...

    Steve Rogers: Well, then... what are you doing here?

    Natasha Romanoff: I didn't want you to be alone.

  • Steve Rogers: Tony, we used to be a family.

    Tony Stark: I don't care.

  • Lt. Col. James Rhodes: Secretary Ross has a Congressional Medal of Honor, which is one more than you have.

    Sam Wilson: So let's say we agreed to this thing. How long is it gonna be before they lojack us like a bunch of common criminals?

    Lt. Col. James Rhodes: 117 countries wanna sign this. 117, Sam, and you're just like, "Nah, it's cool."

    Sam Wilson: How long are you gonna play both sides?

    Vision: I have an equation.

    Sam Wilson: [sarcastically] Oh, this'll clear it up.

    Vision: In the 8 years since Mr. Stark announced himself as Iron Man, the number of known enhanced persons has grown exponentially. And during the same period, a number of potentially world-ending events has risen at a commensurable rate.

    Steve Rogers: Are you saying it's our fault?

    Vision: I'm saying there may be a causality. Our very strength invites challenge. Challenge incites conflict. And conflict... breeds catastrophe. Oversight... Oversight is not an idea that can be dismissed out of hand.

    Lt. Col. James Rhodes: Boom!

    Natasha Romanoff: Tony? You are being uncharacteristically non-hyperverbal.

    Steve Rogers: That's 'cause he's already made up his mind.

    Tony Stark: Boy, you know me so well. Actually, I'm nursing an electromagnetic headache. That's what's going on, Cap. It's just pain. It's discomfort. Who's putting coffee grounds in the disposal? Am I running a Bed and Breakfast for a biker gang?

    [puts phone on table, screen pops up]

    Tony Stark: Oh, that's Charles Spencer, by the way. He's a great kid. Computer engineering degree, 3.6 GPA. Had a floor-level gig, an intel plan for the fall. But first he wanted to put a few miles on his sole before he parked it behind a desk. See the world, maybe be of service. Charlie didn't wanna go to Vegas or Fort Lauderdale, which is what I would do. He didn't go to Paris or Amsterdam, which sounds fun. He decided to spend his summer building sustainable housing for the poor. Guess where: Sokovia. He wanted to make a difference, I suppose. I mean, we won't know because we dropped a building on him while we were kickin' ass... There's no decision-making process here. We need to be put in check! And whatever form that takes, I'm game. If we can't accept limitations, we're boundaryless, we're no better than the bad guys.

    Steve Rogers: Tony, if someone dies on your watch, you don't give up.

    Tony Stark: Who said we're giving up?

    Steve Rogers: We are if we're not taking responsibility for our actions. This document just shifts the blame.

    Lt. Col. James Rhodes: Sorry, Steve, that... that is dangerously arrogant. This is the United Nations we're talking about. It's not the World Security Council, it's not S.H.I.E.L.D., it's not Hydra.

    Steve Rogers: No, but it's run by people with agendas and agendas change.

    Tony Stark: That's good! That's why I'm here. When I realized what my weapons were capable of in the wrong hands, I shut it down. Stopped manufacturing.

    Steve Rogers: Tony, you *chose* to do that. If we sign this, we surrender our right to choose. What if this panel sends us somewhere we don't think we should go? What if there's somewhere we need to go and they don't let us? We may not be perfect but the safest hands are still our own.

    Tony Stark: If we don't do this now, it's gonna be done to us later. That's the fact. That won't be pretty.

    Wanda Maximoff: You're saying they'll come for me.

    Vision: We would protect you.

    Natasha Romanoff: Maybe Tony's right. If we have one hand on the wheel, we can still steer. If we take it off...

    Sam Wilson: Aren't you the same woman who told the government to kiss her ass a few years ago?

  • Steve Rogers: Are you sure about this?

    Bucky Barnes: [going into cryogenic stasis] I can't trust my own mind.

    T'Challa: Your friend and my father, they were both victims. If I can help one of them find peace...

  • Tony Stark: I saw how dangerous my weapons were in the wrong hands, so I took control.

    Steve Rogers: You chose to do that. If we sign these accords, it takes away our right to choose.

  • Steve Rogers: [with Bucky in Wakanda] You know if they find out he's here, they'll come for him.

    T'Challa: Let them try.

  • Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross: Huh. Five years ago, I had a heart attack. I dropped right in the middle of my backswing. Turned out it was the best round of my life because after thirteen hours of surgery and a triple bypass, I have found something forty years in the army had never taught me... perspective. The world owes the Avengers an unpayable debt. You have fought for us, protected us, risked your lives. But while a great many people see you as heroes, there are some who would prefer the word "vigilantes".

    Natasha Romanoff: And what word would you use, Mr. Secretary?

    Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross: How about "dangerous"? What would you call a group of US based, enhanced individuals who routinely ignore sovereign borders and inflict their will wherever they choose and who, frankly, seem unconcerned with what they leave behind? New York, Washington D.C., Sokovia, Lagos...

    Steve Rogers: Okay. That's enough.

    Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross: In the past four years, you've operated with unlimited power and no supervision. That's an arrangement the governments of the world can no longer tolerate.

  • Steve Rogers: I'm not getting that shield back, am I?

    Natasha Romanoff: Technically it's the government's property. The wings, too.

    Sam Wilson: That's cold.

    Tony Stark: Warmer than jail!

  • Steve Rogers: [upon arrest] What about a lawyer?

    Everett K. Ross: Lawyer, that's funny. See their weapons are placed in lockup. We'll write you a receipt.

    Sam Wilson: I better not look out the window and see anybody flying around in that.

  • Wanda Maximoff: What about the gas?

    Steve Rogers: Get it out.

  • Steve Rogers: Who are you? What do you want?

    Zemo: To see an empire fall.

  • Steve Rogers: But if you put the hammer in an elevator?

    Tony Stark: It'll still go up.

    Steve Rogers: Elevator's not worthy.

  • Steve Rogers: You get hurt, hurt 'em back. You get killed... walk it off.

  • Steve Rogers: [relieved] Fury, you son of a bitch!

    Nick Fury: Whoa ho ho! You kiss your mother with that mouth?

  • Tony Stark: Is no one going to comment that the Cap just said "language"?

    Steve Rogers: I know! It just slipped out

  • Steve Rogers: What kind of monster would let a German scientist experiment on them in order to protect their country?

  • Tony Stark: Shit!

    Steve Rogers: Language!

  • Nick Fury: Outwit the platinum bastard.

    Natasha Romanoff: Steve doesn't like that kind of talk.

    Steve Rogers: You know what Romanoff...

  • [after fighting off Ultron drones]

    Thor: IS THAT THE BEST YOU CAN DO?

    [Ultron laughs, and summons more drones]

    Steve Rogers: You had to ask...

    Ultron: [With his arms outstretched] THIS is the best I can do. This is what I've been waiting for. All of you against all of me!

    [Battle ensues]

  • Tony Stark: Does anybody remember when I put a missile through a portal, in New York City? We were standing right under it. We're the Avengers, we can bust weapons dealers the whole doo-da-day, but how do we cope with something like that?

    Steve Rogers: Together.

    Tony Stark: We'll lose.

    Steve Rogers: We do that together too.

  • Tony Stark: Cap, you got an incoming!

    Steve Rogers: [after being hit and tossed by an Ultron] Incoming already came in!

  • Tony Stark: And for gosh's sake, watch your language!

    Steve Rogers: [resigned] That's not going away anytime soon

  • Steve Rogers: [to Banner] As the world's expert on waiting too long, don't. You both deserve a win.

  • Thor: [sees Thor laugh] You think this is funny? This could have been avoided if you hadn't played with something you don't understand...

    Tony Stark: I'm sorry... I think it's funny, I think it's a hoot that YOU don't get why we need this!

    Bruce Banner: Tony, maybe this might not be the time...

    Tony Stark: Really? That's it? You just roll over and show your belly, every time somebody snarls?

    Bruce Banner: Only when I've created a murder-bot!

    Tony Stark: We didn't, we weren't even close! Were we close to an interface?

    Steve Rogers: Well, you did something right, and you did it right here!

  • [From trailer]

    Tony Stark: No way we all get through this...

    Steve Rogers: I got no plans tomorrow night.

  • Steve Rogers: I'm only gonna say this once.

    Tony Stark: How about "none"-ce?

  • Steve Rogers: I'm sick of watching people pay for our mistakes...

  • Ultron: [Loud ringing noise fades into Ultron's voice] ... worthy... No... How could you be worthy? Your all killers.

    Steve Rogers: Stark.

    Tony Stark: JARVIS.

    Ultron: Sorry I was asleep... Or... I was a dream...

    Tony Stark: [Tapping his phone] Reboot, we got a buggy suit.

    Ultron: ...There was a terrible noise... And I was tangled in... in... strings... I had to kill the other guy... He was a good guy.

    Steve Rogers: You killed someone?

    Ultron: Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world we're faced with ugly choices.

    Thor: Who sent you?

    Ultron: [Replaying Tony's voice] "I see a suit of armour around the world".

    Bruce Banner: Ultron!

    Ultron: In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. Not this... chrysalis... But I'm ready. I'm on a mission.

    Natasha Romanoff: What mission?

    Ultron: Peace in our time.

  • Steve Rogers: We can still find a better way to achieve peace?

    Ultron: I can't actually throw up in my mouth, but if I could I would do it!

  • [Tony Stark has a vision where he sees all his friends fall in an alien invasion]

    Steve Rogers: [last words] You could have saved us...

  • [from trailer]

    Steve Rogers: Ultron's calling us out. What are we gonna do?

    Nick Fury: Something dramatic, I hope.

    Tony Stark: Let's go give him a fight!

  • Steve Rogers: [Ultron blasts Cap] Well, he's definitely unhappy. I'm gonna try to keep him that way.

    Clint Barton: You're not a match for him, Cap.

    Steve Rogers: Thanks, Barton.

  • Steve Rogers: Ultron thinks we're monsters, that we're what's wrong with the world. This isn't just about beating him, it's about whether he's right.

  • Tony Stark: Cap, I have to blow up the city!

    Steve Rogers: There are still people up here, not to mention us!

    Tony Stark: It's everybody up here, or everybody down there!

    Natasha Romanoff: Well, it's not like we ever had a place in the world...

    [a Helicarrier appears]

    Nick Fury: The world adjusts, evolves to live with changes.

  • Ultron: You know what's in that cradle? The power to make real change, and that terrifies you.

    Steve Rogers: I wouldn't call it a comfort.

  • Ultron: [Drone charges Rogers - who has just rescued a falling villager] You can't save them all.

    [Cap throws shield at drone]

    Ultron: You'll never...

    Steve Rogers: [activates his gauntlet, sending drone over the edge] "You'll never what?" You didn't finish!

    [Thor lands on a car he had just rescued, whose occupants come out retching]

    Steve Rogers: What? We're you napping?

  • Tony Stark: All deference to the Man Who Wouldn't Be King, but it's rigged.

    Clint Barton: You bet your ass!

    Maria Hill: Steve, he said a bad language word!

    Steve Rogers: [to Tony] Did you tell everyone about that?

  • Steve Rogers: Who in their right minds would volunteer for a unproven scientific experiment run by a German scientist?

  • Lila Barton: Did you bring Auntie Nat?

    Natasha Romanoff: Why don't you hug her and find out?

    [Lila rushes towards Natasha who picks her up in her arms]

    Steve Rogers: Sorry for barging in on you.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, we would have called ahead, but we were busy having no idea that you existed.

    Clint Barton: Yeah, well Fury helped me set this up when I joined. He kept it off SHIELD's files, I'd like to keep it that way. I figure it's a good place to lay low.

    Laura: Honey. Ah, I missed you.

    Natasha Romanoff: [Touching Laura's pregnant stomach] How's little Natasha, huh?

    Laura: She's... Nathaniel.

    Natasha Romanoff: [Natasha bends towards Laura's stomach] Traitor.

  • Announcer: [the Avengers are in the process of infiltrating a HYDRA base in Sovokia] Report to your stations immediately. This is not a drill. We are under attack. We are under attack.

    Tony Stark: [Tony hits the shield around the base] Shit!

    Steve Rogers: Language! Jarvis, what's the view from upstairs?

    Jarvis: The central building is protected by some kind of energy shield. Strucker's technology is well beyond any other Hydra base we've taken.

    Thor: Loki's scepter must be here. Strucker couldn't mount this defense without it. At long last.

    Natasha Romanoff: [Natasha knocks out some soldiers] At long last is lasting a little long, boys.

    Clint Barton: [as some soldiers shoot at Clint] Yeah. I think we lost the element of surprise.

    Tony Stark: Wait a second. No one else is going to deal with the fact that Cap just said "language?"

    Steve Rogers: I know.

    Steve Rogers: [Steve throws his bike at some soldiers driving up in their truck] It just slipped out.

  • Tony Stark: Sh*t!

    Steve Rogers: Language!

    [Later]

    Tony Stark: Wait a second... No one else is going to deal with the fact that Cap just said, 'Language'?

    [Later]

    Tony Stark: ...and for gosh's sake, watch your language!

    [Later]

    Maria Hill: [referring to Clint saying "a**"] Steve, he said a bad language word!

    [Later]

    Natasha Romanoff: [to Fury for saying "bastard"] Steve doesn't like that kind of talk.

    [Later]

    Nick Fury: [to Cap who just called him "son of a bitch"] Ooh! You kiss your mother with that mouth?

  • Thor: [after defeating a wave of Ultron drones] Is that the best you can do?

    Steve Rogers: [Ultron summons the rest of his drones to fight] You had to ask.

    Ultron: *This* is the best *I* can do.

  • Tony Stark: You know Ultron is trying to tear us apart, right?

    Steve Rogers: Well I guess you'd know. Whether you tell us is a bit of a question.

    Tony Stark: Banner and I were doing research.

    Steve Rogers: That would affect the team.

    Tony Stark: That would end the team. Isn't that the mission? Isn't that the "why" we fight, so we can end the fight, so we get to go home?

    Steve Rogers: Every time someone tries to win a war before it starts, innocent people die. Every time.

    Laura: [Laura interrupts them] I'm sorry. Mr. Stark, uh, Clint said you wouldn't mind, but, our tractor, it doesn't seem to want to start at all. I thought maybe you might...

    Tony Stark: Yeah, I'll give her a kick.

    Tony Stark: [to Steve as he turns to leave; referring to his pile of chopped wood] Don't take from my pile.

  • Tony Stark: Anybody remember when I carried a nuke through a wormhole?

    James Rhodes: No, it's never come up.

    Tony Stark: Saved New York?

    James Rhodes: Never heard that.

    Tony Stark: Recall that? A hostile alien army came charging through a hole in space. We're standing three hundred feet below it. We're the Avengers. We can bust arms dealers all the live long day, but, that up there? That's... that's the end game. How were you guys planning on beating that?

    Steve Rogers: Together.

    Tony Stark: We'll lose.

    Steve Rogers: Then we'll do that together, too.

    [Tony looks at him for a moment before turning away]

    Steve Rogers: Thor's right. Ultron's calling us out. And I'd like to find him before he's ready for us. The world's a big place. Let's start making it smaller.

  • Steve Rogers: [Avengers go through the physical files they have on Strucker] Known associates. Well, Strucker had a lot of friends.

    Bruce Banner: Well, these people are all horrible.

    Tony Stark: [Banner passes him the photo he was looking at] Wait. I know that guy.

    Tony Stark: From back in the day. He operates off the African coast, black market arms.

    Tony Stark: [Steve gives him a accusing look] There are conventions, alright? You meet people, I didn't sell him anything.

    [we see the photo is of a man named Ulysses Klaue]

    Tony Stark: He was talking about finding something new, a game changer, it was all very "Ahab."

    Thor: [Thor points to the scar on the back of Klaue's neck] This.

    Tony Stark: Uh, it's a tattoo. I don't think he had it...

    Thor: No, those are tattoos, this is a brand.

    Bruce Banner: [Banner identifies the brand on Klaue's neck on the computer] Oh, yeah. It's a word in an African dialect meaning thief, in a much less friendly way.

    Steve Rogers: What dialect?

    Bruce Banner: Wakanada...? Wa... Wa... Wakanda.

    Tony Stark: If this guy got out of Wakanda with some of their trade goods...

    Steve Rogers: I thought your father said he got the last of it.

    Bruce Banner: I don't follow. What comes out of Wakanda?

    Tony Stark: [Looking at Steve's shield] The strongest metal in Earth.

    Steve Rogers: [to Tony] Where is this guy now?

  • Steve Rogers: The next wave's gonna hit any minute. What have you got, Stark?

    Tony Stark: Well, nothing great. Maybe a way to blow up the city. That'll keep it from impacting the surface if you guys can get clear.

    Steve Rogers: I asked for a solution, not an escape plan.

    Tony Stark: Impact radius is getting bigger every second. We're going to have to make a choice.

    Natasha Romanoff: Cap, these people are going nowhere. If Stark finds a way to blow this rock...

    Steve Rogers: Not 'til everyone's safe.

    Natasha Romanoff: Everyone up here versus everyone down there? There's no math there.

    Steve Rogers: I'm not leaving this rock with one civilian on it.

    Natasha Romanoff: I didn't say we should leave.

    Natasha Romanoff: [Steve turns to look at her] There's worse ways to go. Where else am I gonna get a view like this?

    Nick Fury: [Cap and Natasha hear Fury's voice] Glad you like the view, Romanoff. It's about to get better.

    Nick Fury: [Helicarrier shows up] Nice, right? I pulled her out of mothballs with a couple of old friends. She's dusty, but she'll do.

    Steve Rogers: Fury, you son of a bitch.

    Nick Fury: Oooh! You kiss your mother with that mouth?

    Maria Hill: Altitude is eighteen thousand and climbing.

    Specialist Cameron Klein: Lifeboats secure to deploy. Disengage in three, two... take 'em out.

    Pietro Maximoff: [They watch the lifeboats fly in towards Sokovia] This is SHIELD?

    Steve Rogers: This is what SHIELD's supposed to be.

    Pietro Maximoff: This is not so bad.

    Steve Rogers: Let's load 'em up.

  • Steve Rogers: I really miss the days when the weirdest thing science ever created was me.

  • Tony Stark: Thor didn't say where he was going for answers?

    Steve Rogers: Sometimes my teammates don't tell me things. Kind of hoping Thor would be the exception.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, give him time. We don't know what the Maximoff kid showed him.

    Steve Rogers: Earth's mightiest heroes... pulled us apart like cotton candy.

    Tony Stark: Seems like you walked away alright.

    Steve Rogers: [stares at Tony] Is that a problem?

    Tony Stark: I don't trust a guy without a dark side. Call me old fashioned.

    Steve Rogers: Well let's just say you haven't seen it yet.

    Tony Stark: You know Ultron's trying to tear us apart, right?

    Steve Rogers: Well, I guess you know. Whether you'd tell us is a bit of a question.

    Tony Stark: Banner and I were doing research...

    Steve Rogers: -That would affect the team.

    Tony Stark: -That would END the team. Isn't that the mission? Isn't that the 'why we fight'? So we get to go home?

    Steve Rogers: [Splits wood with bare hands] Every time someone tries to win a war before it starts, innocent people die. Every time.

  • [last lines]

    Steve Rogers: [to Wanda, James, Sam] AVENGERS...

  • Steve Rogers: [on the Scarlet Witch] She's with us.

  • Steve Rogers: Thor, what's his play?

    Thor: He has an army, called the Chitauri. They're not of Asgard or any world known. He means to lead them against your people. They will win him the Earth. In return, I suspect, for the Tesseract.

    Steve Rogers: An army. From outer space.

    Bruce Banner: So he's building another portal. That's what he needs Erik Selvig for.

    Thor: Selvig?

    Bruce Banner: He's an astrophysicist.

    Thor: He's a friend.

    Natasha Romanoff: Loki has them under some kind of spell. Along with one of ours.

    Steve Rogers: I wanna know why Loki let us take him. He's not leading an army from here.

    Bruce Banner: I don't think we should be focusing on Loki. That guy's brain is a bag full of cats. You can smell crazy on him.

    Thor: Have a care how you speak! Loki is beyond reason, but he is of Asgard and he is my brother!

    Natasha Romanoff: He killed eighty people in two days.

    Thor: He's adopted.

  • Tony Stark: What's the stat, Rogers?

    Steve Rogers: [looks at the Helicarrier tech] It seems to be powered by some sort of electricity!

    Tony Stark: ...well, you're not wrong.

  • Loki: Kneel before me. I said, KNEEL!

    [Loki stamps his scepter on the ground, causing a shockwave that intimidates the crowd into silence as they all kneel before him]

    Loki: Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity, that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel.

    German Old Man: [slowly rises to his feet] Not to men like you.

    Loki: [smiling] There are no men like me.

    German Old Man: There are *always* men like you.

    Loki: Look to your elder, people. Let him be an example.

    [Loki aims a blast of power from his scepter at the old man when Captain America leaps in front of the intended target, deflecting the blast with his shield back at Loki, knocking him down]

    Steve Rogers: You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.

    Loki: The soldier. A man out of time.

    Steve Rogers: I'm not the one who's out of time.

  • Steve Rogers: What's the matter, scared of a little lightning?

    Loki: I'm not overly fond of what follows...

    [Thor appears]

  • Steve Rogers: Big man in a suit of armour. Take that off, what are you?

    Tony Stark: Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist.

    Steve Rogers: I know guys with none of that worth ten of you. I've seen the footage. The only thing you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play, to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you.

    Tony Stark: I think I would just cut the wire.

    Steve Rogers: Always a way out... You know, you may not be a threat, but you better stop pretending to be a hero.

    Tony Stark: A hero? Like you? You're a lab rat, Rogers. Everything special about you came out of a bottle!

    Steve Rogers: Put on the suit. Let's go a few rounds.

  • [Stark suits up to chase Thor and Loki]

    Steve Rogers: Stark, we need a plan of attack!

    Tony Stark: I have a plan: attack!

  • Tony Stark: [about Loki killing Coulson] He made it personal.

    Steve Rogers: That's not the point.

    Tony Stark: That IS the point. That's Loki's point! He hit us all right where we live. Why?

    Steve Rogers: To tear us apart.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, divide and conquer is great, but he knows he has to take us out to win, right? THAT'S what he wants. He wants to beat us, he wants to be seen doing it. He wants an audience.

    Steve Rogers: Right. I caught his act at Stuttgart.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, that was just previews. This is - this is opening night. And Loki, he's a full-tilt diva, right? He wants flowers, he wants parades. He wants a monument built to the skies with his name plastered...

    [Stark pauses; he and Rogers look at each other knowingly]

    Tony Stark: Sonofabitch!

  • Steve Rogers: Does Loki need any particular kind of power source?

    Bruce Banner: He'd have to heat the cube to a hundred and twenty million Kelvin just to break through the Coulomb barrier.

    Tony Stark: Unless Selvig has figured out how to stabilize the quantum tunnelling effect.

    Bruce Banner: Well, if he could do that, he could achieve heavy ion fusion at any reactor on the planet.

    Tony Stark: Finally, someone who speaks English.

    Steve Rogers: Is that what just happened?

    [Stark and Banner shake hands]

    Tony Stark: It's good to meet you, Dr. Banner. Your work on anti-electron collisions is unparalleled. And I'm a huge fan of the way you lose control and turn into an enormous green rage monster.

    Bruce Banner: Thanks.

    Nick Fury: [to Stark] Dr. Banner is only here to track the cube. I was hoping you might join him.

    Steve Rogers: Let's start with that stick of his. It may be magical, but it works an awful lot like a Hydra weapon.

    Nick Fury: I don't know about that, but it is powered by the cube. And I'd like to know how Loki used it to turn two of the sharpest men I know into his personal flying monkeys.

    Thor: Monkeys? I do not understand.

    Steve Rogers: I do!

    [Stark rolls his eyes, while Captain America looks proud of himself]

    Steve Rogers: I understood that reference.

  • Tony Stark: [regaining consciousness] What just happened? Please tell me nobody kissed me.

    Steve Rogers: We won.

    Tony Stark: Alright. Hey. Alright. Good job, guys. Let's just not come in tomorrow. Let's just take a day. Have you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from here. I don't know what it is, but I wanna try it.

  • [Captain America puts on a parachute to go follow after Thor, Loki and Iron Man]

    Natasha Romanoff: I'd sit this one out, Cap.

    Steve Rogers: I don't see how I can.

    Natasha Romanoff: These guys come from legend. They're basically gods.

    Steve Rogers: There's only one God, ma'am, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't dress like that.

    [Captain America leaps out of the Quinjet]

  • Steve Rogers: Doctor Banner, now might be a good time for you to get angry.

    Bruce Banner: That's my secret, Captain: I'm always angry.

    [Banner hulks out and punches the Leviathan]

  • Steve Rogers: Stark, are you seeing any of this?

    Tony Stark: Seeing, still working on believing.

  • Waitress: [deleted scene: Cap, feeling disconnected from the world, sits at an outdoor cafe table sketching Stark Tower] Waiting on the big guy?

    Steve Rogers: Ma'am?

    Waitress: Iron Man. A lot of people eat here just to see him fly by.

    Steve Rogers: Right. Maybe another time.

    [pays his tab]

    Waitress: The table's yours as long as you like. Nobody's waiting on it. Plus we've got free wireless.

    Steve Rogers: Radio?

    [she gives him a nice look over her shoulder as she walks away]

    Stan Lee: [from the adjacent table] Ask for her number, you moron.

  • Natasha Romanoff: [all arguing in the lab] Are you really that dense? S.H.I.E.L.D. monitors potential threats.

    Bruce Banner: Captain America is on threat watch?

    Natasha Romanoff: We ALL are!

    Tony Stark: [to Rogers] You're on that list? Are you above or below angry bees?

    Steve Rogers: I swear, Stark, one more wisecrack out of you...

    Tony Stark: Verbal threat! Threatening! I'm being threatened!

  • [after attacking Loki with full weapons activated]

    Tony Stark: Make a move, Reindeer Games...

    [Loki quietly surrenders]

    Tony Stark: Good move.

    Steve Rogers: Mr. Stark.

    Tony Stark: Captain.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Gentlemen, you might want to step inside in a minute. It's going to get a little hard to breathe.

    [as the Helicarrier starts to power up, Steve Rogers and Bruce Banner walk to the edge]

    Steve Rogers: Is this a submarine?

    Bruce Banner: Really? They want me submerged in a pressurized metal container?

    [Rogers and Banner stand at the edge and they look over as the Helicarrier starts to slowly rise out of the ocean to fly]

    Bruce Banner: [smiles] Oh, no, this is MUCH worse!

    [Rogers hands $10 to Fury]

  • Steve Rogers: When I went under, the world was at war. I wake up, they say we won. They didn't say what we lost.

    Nick Fury: We've made some mistakes along the way. Some, very recently.

    Steve Rogers: Are you here with a mission, sir?

    Nick Fury: I am.

    Steve Rogers: Trying to get me back in the world?

    Nick Fury: Trying to save it.

    [Fury shows a file of the Tesseract]

    Steve Rogers: HYDRA's secret weapon.

    Nick Fury: Howard Stark fished that out of the ocean when he was looking for you. He thought what we think: the Tesseract could be the key to unlimited sustainable energy. That's something the world sorely needs.

    Steve Rogers: Who took it from you?

    Nick Fury: He's called Loki. He's not from around here. There's a lot we'll have to bring you up to speed on if you're in. The world has gotten even stranger than you already know.

    Steve Rogers: At this point, I doubt anything would surprise me.

    Nick Fury: Ten bucks says you're wrong. There's a debriefing packet waiting for you at your apartment. Is there anything you can tell us about the Tesseract that we ought to know now?

    Steve Rogers: You should have left it in the ocean.

  • Steve Rogers: Stark? We got him.

    Tony Stark: Banner...?

    Steve Rogers: Just like you said.

    Tony Stark: Then tell him to suit up... I'm bringing the party to you.

    [Stark in his Iron Man armor leads the monstrous Leviathan into view, heading toward the rest of the Avengers]

    Natasha Romanoff: I - I don't see how that's a party.

  • [Captain America throws his shield between Iron Man and Thor, stopping their fight in the woods]

    Steve Rogers: Hey! That's enough!

    [Captain America looks at Thor]

    Steve Rogers: Now, I don't know what you plan on doing here.

    Thor: I've come here to put and end to Loki's schemes!

    Steve Rogers: Then prove it! Put the hammer down.

    Tony Stark: Um, yeah, no! Bad call! He loves his hammer!

    [Thor knocks Iron Man back with his hammer]

    Thor: [to Cap] You want me to put the hammer down?

    [Captain America ducks and holds up his shield as Thor leaps at him, blocking Thor's blow. The impact of the hammer on the vibranium shield creates a massive shockwave, knocking Thor off his feet]

    Steve Rogers: Are we done here?

  • Steve Rogers: Is everything a joke to you?

    Tony Stark: Funny things are.

  • Nick Fury: Having trouble sleeping?

    Steve Rogers: I've been asleep for 70 years. I think I've had enough rest.

  • Tony Stark: Why did Fury call us in? Why now? Why not before? What isn't he telling us? I can't do the equation unless I have all the variables.

    Steve Rogers: You think Fury's hiding something?

    Tony Stark: He's a spy. Captain. He's THE spy. His secrets have secrets.

  • Steve Rogers: We have orders, we should follow them.

    Tony Stark: Following's not really my style.

    Steve Rogers: And you're all about style, aren't you?

    Tony Stark: Of the people in this room, which one is A - wearing a spangly outfit and B - not of use?

  • [Black Widow is flying a Quinjet, while a maskless Captain America and helmetless Iron Man stand in the back keeping an eye on Loki]

    Steve Rogers: I don't like it.

    Tony Stark: What? Rock of Ages giving up so easily?

    Steve Rogers: I don't remember it being ever that easy. This guy packs a wallop.

    Tony Stark: Still, you are pretty spry, for an older fellow. What's your thing, Pilates?

    Steve Rogers: What?

    Tony Stark: It's like calisthenics. You might have missed a couple things, you know, doing time as a Capsicle.

    [Captain America looks at Iron Man, annoyed]

    Steve Rogers: Fury didn't tell me he was calling you in.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, there's a lot of things Fury doesn't tell you.

  • Nick Fury: [having discovered a security breach] What are you doing, Mr Stark?

    Tony Stark: Uh, kind of been wondering the same thing about you.

    Nick Fury: You're supposed to be locating the Tesseract!

    Bruce Banner: We are! The model's locked and we're sweeping for the signature now. When we get the hit, we'll have a signature within half a mile.

    Tony Stark: Yeah, you'll get your cube back, no mas, no fuss.

    [pause]

    Tony Stark: What is Phase 2?

    Steve Rogers: [drops a weapon on a table] Phase 2 is SHIELD uses the Cube to make weapons! Sorry, the computer was moving a little slow for me.

    Nick Fury: Rogers, we gathered everything related to the Tesseract, this does not mean that we...

    Tony Stark: I'm sorry Nick, what were you lying?

    [turns a monitor around showing a schematic of a rocket]

    Steve Rogers: I was wrong, Director. The world hasn't changed a bit.

  • Steve Rogers: Word is you can find the cube.

    Bruce Banner: Is that the only word on me?

    Steve Rogers: Only word I care about.

  • Loki: Kneel!

    Steve Rogers: Not today!

  • Steve Rogers: [about Coulson] Was he married?

    Tony Stark: No. There was a, uh... cellist. I think.

    Steve Rogers: I'm sorry. He seemed like a good man.

    Tony Stark: He was an idiot.

    Steve Rogers: Why? For believing?

    Tony Stark: For taking on Loki alone.

    Steve Rogers: He was doing his job.

    Tony Stark: [scoffs] He was out of his league. He should have waited. He should have...

    Steve Rogers: Sometimes there isn't a way out, Tony.

    Tony Stark: Right, I've heard that before.

    Steve Rogers: Is this the first time you've lost a soldier?

    Tony Stark: WE ARE NOT SOLDIERS! I am not marching to Fury's fife!

    Steve Rogers: Neither am I! He's got the same blood on his hands that Loki does. But right now we've got to put that behind us and get this done.

  • Maintenance Guy: [as the Avengers climb aboard the Quinjet to fly to Manhattan] Uh... You are not authorized to be here!

    Steve Rogers: Son... just don't.

  • Steve Rogers: You think you can hold them off?

    Clint Barton: Captain, it would be my genuine pleasure.

  • Thor: You speak of control, yet you court chaos.

    Bruce Banner: It's his M.O., isn't it? I mean, what are we, a team? No, no, no. We're a chemical mixture that makes chaos. We're... we're a time-bomb.

    Nick Fury: You need to step away.

    Tony Stark: Why shouldn't the guy let off a little steam?

    Steve Rogers: You know damn well why! Back off!

    Tony Stark: Oh, I'm starting to want you to make me.

  • Nick Fury: Agent Romanoff, would you escort Dr. Banner back to his...

    Bruce Banner: Back where? You rented my room.

    Nick Fury: The cell was built...

    Bruce Banner: In case you needed to kill me, but you can't! I know! I tried!... I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth... and 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!

    [Banner slowly gets upset as he looks at Romanoff, who gets unnerved]

    Bruce Banner: You wanna know my secret, Agent Romanoff? You wanna know how I stay calm?

    [Black Widow and Nick Fury have their hands down to grab their guns]

    Steve Rogers: Doctor Banner... put down the scepter.

    [Banner looks down and is shocked to see he's holding Loki's scepter; the computer beeps]

    Tony Stark: Got it.

    [Banner puts down the scepter and heads to the computer]

    Bruce Banner: Sorry, kids. You don't get to see my little party trick after all.

  • Bruce Banner: I'd like to know why SHIELD is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction.

    Nick Fury: Because of him!

    [points at Thor]

    Thor: Me?

    Nick Fury: Last year, Earth had a visit from another planet that had a grudge match that leveled a small town. We learned that only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly, hilariously outgunned.

    Thor: My people want nothing but peace with your planet!

    Nick Fury: But you're not the only ones out there, are you? And you're not the only threat. The world is filling up with people that can't be matched, that can't be controlled!

    Steve Rogers: Like you control the cube?

  • Steve Rogers: Are you nuts?

    Tony Stark: Jury's out.

  • Steve Rogers: Have you got a suit?

    Clint Barton: Yeah.

    Steve Rogers: Then suit up.

  • [In a Quinjet, Agent Coulson walks to Steve Rogers who is seated and looks at Bruce Banner's file on his laptop]

    Steve Rogers: So this Doctor Banner was trying to replicate the serum that was used on me?

    Agent Phil Coulson: A lot of people were. You were the world's first superhero. Banner thought gamma radiation might hold the key to unlocking Erskine's original formula.

    [Steve watches the footage of the Hulk's attack on the Army at Culver University and the Hulk roars with fury as he slams a jeep apart]

    Steve Rogers: Didn't really go his way, did it?

    Agent Phil Coulson: Not so much. When he's not that thing though, guy's like a Stephen Hawking.

    [Steve looks puzzled, not understanding the reference]

    Agent Phil Coulson: He's like a smart person. I gotta say, it's an honor to meet you, officially. I sort of met you, I mean, I watched you while you were sleeping. I mean, I was... I was present while you were unconscious from the ice. You know, it's really, it's just a... just a huge honor to have you on board.

    Steve Rogers: Well, I hope I'm the man for the job.

    Agent Phil Coulson: Oh, you are. Absolutely. Uh... we've made some modifications to the uniform. I had a little design input.

    Steve Rogers: The uniform? Aren't the stars and stripes a little... old-fashioned?

    Agent Phil Coulson: With everything that's happening, the things that are about to come to light, people might just need a little old-fashioned.

  • Tony Stark: Cap, pull the lever!

    Steve Rogers: I need a minute here!

    Tony Stark: Lever. Now!

    Sam Wilson: This would've been a lot easier a week ago.

    Sam Wilson: He won't believe us.

    Steve Rogers: Even if he did...

    Sam Wilson: Who knows if the accords will let him help?

    Steve Rogers: We're on our own.

    Peggy Carter: I'll-I'll get Howard on the line. He'll know what to do.

    Steve Rogers: There's not enough time. This thing's moving too fast and it's heading for New York. I gotta put her in the water.

    Peggy Carter: Please don't do this. W-we have time. We can work it out.

    Steve Rogers: Right now I'm in the middle of nowhere. If I wait any longer a lot of people are gonna die. Peggy, this is my choice.

    Steve Rogers: [turns the plane toward earth] Peggy...

    Peggy Carter: I'm here.

    Steve Rogers: I'm gonna need a rain check on that dance.

    Peggy Carter: All right. A week next Saturday at The Stork Club.

    Steve Rogers: You've got it.

    Peggy Carter: Eight o'clock on the dot. Don't you dare be late. Understood?

    Steve Rogers: You know, I still don't know how to dance.

    Peggy Carter: I'll show you how. Just be there.

    Steve Rogers: We'll have the band play something slow.

  • James 'Bucky' Barnes: [looking down a long and steep zip line they'll soon be traveling] Remember when I made you ride the Cyclone on Coney Island?

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, and I threw up?

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: This isn't payback, is it?

    Steve Rogers: [grinning] Now why would I do that?

  • Steve Rogers: Can I ask a question?

    Abraham Erskine: Just one?

    Steve Rogers: Why me?

    Abraham Erskine: I suppose that's the only question that matters.

    Abraham Erskine: [Displaying a wine bottle] This is from Augsburg, my city. So many people forget that the first country the Nazis invaded was their own. You know, after the last war, they... My people struggled. They... they felt weak... they felt small. Then Hitler comes along with the marching, and the big show, and the flags, and the, and the... and he... he hears of me, and my work, and he finds me, and he says "You." He says "You will make us strong." Well, I am not interested. So he sends the head of Hydra, his research division, a brilliant scientist by the name of Johann Schmidt. Now Schmidt is a member of the inner circle and he is ambitious. He and Hitler share a passion for occult power and Teutonic myth. Hitler uses his fantasies to inspire his followers, but for Schmidt, it is not fantasy. For him, it is real. He has become convinced that there is a great power hidden in the earth, left here by the gods, waiting to be seized by a superior man. So when he hears about my formula and what it can do, he cannot resist. Schmidt must become that superior man.

    Steve Rogers: Did it make him stronger?

    Abraham Erskine: Yeah, but... there were other... effects. The serum was not ready. But more important, the man. The serum amplifies everything that is inside, so good becomes great; bad becomes worse. This is why you were chosen. Because the strong man who has known power all his life, may lose respect for that power, but a weak man knows the value of strength, and knows... compassion.

    Steve Rogers: Thanks. I think.

    Abraham Erskine: [Gesturing toward the wine] Get it, get it. Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are, not a perfect soldier, but a good man.

  • Steve Rogers: I know this neighborhood. I got beat up in that alley. And that parking lot. And behind that diner.

  • Peggy Carter: How do you feel?

    Steve Rogers: Taller.

  • Red Skull: Arrogance may not be a uniquely American trait, but I must say, you do it better than anyone. But there are limits to what even you can do, Captain, or did Erskine tell you otherwise?

    Steve Rogers: He told me you were insane.

    Red Skull: Ah. He resented my genius and tried to deny me what was rightfully mine, but he gave you everything. So, what made you so special?

    Steve Rogers: Nothing. I'm just a kid from Brooklyn.

  • [talking about Steve taking the Super-Soldier formula]

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: Did it hurt?

    Steve Rogers: A little.

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: Is this permanent?

    Steve Rogers: So far.

  • James 'Bucky' Barnes: [discovering Steve is taller] What happened to you?

    Steve Rogers: I joined the Army.

    Steve Rogers: The hell I can't! I'm a Captain!

    [smiles]

  • Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan: Wait. You know what you're doing?

    Steve Rogers: Yeah. I knocked out Adolf Hitler over 200 times.

  • Steve Rogers: [after being injected in the arm] That wasn't so bad.

    Abraham Erskine: That was penicillin.

  • [last lines]

    [Steve Rogers finds himself in New York]

    Nick Fury: At ease, soldier! Look, I'm sorry about that little show back there, but we thought it best to break it to you slowly.

    Steve Rogers: Break what?

    Nick Fury: You've been asleep, Cap. For almost 70 years.

    [Steve is silent with shock]

    Nick Fury: You gonna be okay?

    Steve Rogers: Yeah. Yeah, I just... I had a date.

  • Peggy Carter: You're late.

    [hold up broken transmitter]

    Steve Rogers: I couldn't call my ride.

  • [Steve starts yelling]

    Peggy Carter: Shut it down!

    Abraham Erskine: Kill the reactor, Mr. Stark! Turn it off! Kill it! Kill the reactor!

    Steve Rogers: [from within the chamber] No! Don't! I can do this!

  • Abraham Erskine: [knocking on the capsule Steve is locked in for the procedure to change him] Steven, can you hear me?

    Steve Rogers: It's probably too late to go to the bathroom, right?

  • Steve Rogers: Dr. Erskine said that the serum wouldn't just effect my muscles, it would effect my cells. Create a protective system of regeneration and healing. Which means, um, I can't get drunk. Did you know that?

    Peggy Carter: Your metabolism burns four times faster than the average person. He thought it could be one of the side effects.

  • Steve Rogers: You ready to follow Captain America into the jaws of death?

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: Hell, no! The little guy from Brooklyn who was too dumb not to run away from a fight. I'm following him.

    [Smiles]

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: But you're keeping the outfit, right?

    Steve Rogers: You know what? It's kinda grown on me.

  • Steve Rogers: Where are we going?

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: The future.

  • Gabe Jones: Who are you supposed to be?

    Steve Rogers: I'm... Captain America.

    [Steve walks off to free the soldiers trapped below]

    James Montgomery Falsworth: I beg your pardon?

  • 4F Doctor: [looks at Steve's file which shows he has a long list of health issues] Sorry, son.

    Steve Rogers: Look, just give me a chance.

    4F Doctor: You'd be ineligible on your asthma alone.

    Steve Rogers: Is there anything you can do?

    4F Doctor: I'm doing it. I'm saving your life.

  • Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan: So, let's get this straight.

    Gabe Jones: We barely got out of there alive, and you want us to go back?

    Steve Rogers: Pretty much.

    James Montgomery Falsworth: Sounds rather fun, actually.

    Jim Morita: [burps] I'm in.

    [Jacques and Gabe converse briefly in French]

    Gabe Jones: [referring to himself and Jacques] We're in.

    Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan: Hell, I'll always fight. But you gotta do one thing for me.

    Steve Rogers: What's that?

    Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan: [drinks the rest of his beer in one go] Open a tab.

    [they laugh as Steve gets up to go to the bar]

    Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan: Well, that was easy.

  • Steve Rogers: I had some ideas about the uniform.

    Howard Stark: Whatever you want, pal.

  • Steve Rogers: Sir, if you're going after Schmidt, I want in

    Col. Chester Phillips: You're an experiment. You're going to Alamogordo.

    Steve Rogers: The serum worked.

    Col. Chester Phillips: I asked for an army and all I got was you. You are not enough.

  • Steve Rogers: Who the hell are you?

    Heinz Kruger: The first of many. Cut off one head...

    [bites down on cyanide pill]

    Heinz Kruger: ...two more shall take its place. Hail Hydra.

  • Peggy Carter: Tell me, did you truly like your friend? Did you respect him?

    Steve Rogers: [surprised] Yes!

    Peggy Carter: Well then, stop blaming yourself! Give your friend the respect of making his own decisions!

  • [from trailer]

    Col. Chester Phillips: General Patton has said that wars are fought with weapons but are won by men.

    Loud Jerk: You just don't know when to give up, do ya?

    Steve Rogers: I could do this all day.

    Col. Chester Phillips: Our goal is to create the greatest army in history.

    Steve Rogers: I should be going with you. Look, I know you don't think I can do this...

    James 'Bucky' Barnes: This isn't a back alley, Steve. It's war!

    Col. Chester Phillips: But every army begins with one man.

    Abraham Erskine: Five tries in five different cities. I can offer you a chance.

    Col. Chester Phillips: He will be the first in a new breed of super-soldier.

    Steve Rogers: Why me?

    Abraham Erskine: Because a weak man knows the value of strength, of the value of power.

    Steve Rogers: That wasn't so bad.

    Abraham Erskine: That was penicillin.

    Col. Chester Phillips: We are going to win this war because we have the best men.

    Abraham Erskine: Now, Mr. Stark.

    [Howard Stark engages the machine]

    Col. Chester Phillips: And they will, personally, escort Adolf Hitler to the gates of Hell.

  • Steve Rogers: [after one of Steve's "Captain America" shows] What are you doing here?

    Peggy Carter: Officially I'm not here at all. That was quite a performance.

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, uh... I had to improvise a little bit. The crowds I'm used to are usually more, uh...

    [Struggles to find a word]

    Peggy Carter: I understand you're America's new hope.

    Steve Rogers: Bond sales take a ten percent bump in every state I visit.

    Peggy Carter: Is that Senator Brandt I hear?

    Steve Rogers: At least he's got me doing this. Phillips would have had be stuck in lab.

    Peggy Carter: And these are your only two options? A lab rat or a dancing monkey? You were meant for more than this, you know?

    [Steve looks like he's about to say something, then closes his mouth]

    Peggy Carter: What?

    Steve Rogers: You know for the longest time I dreamed about coming overseas and be on the front lines. Serving my country. I finally get everything I wanted, and I'm wearing tights.

  • Steve Rogers: You save me any of that schnapps?

    Abraham Erskine: Not as much as I should have. Sorry.

  • Steve Rogers: [after Howard and Peggy steal a plane to get Steve across the front lines] You know you two are going to be in a lot of trouble when you land.

    Peggy Carter: And you won't?

    Steve Rogers: Where I'm goin', if anybody yells at me I can just shoot 'em.

  • Col. Chester Phillips: Agent Carter co-ordinate with MI6. I want every allied eyeball looking for that main Hydra base.

    Peggy Carter: What about us?

    Col. Chester Phillips: We are gonna set a fire under Johann Schmidt's ass. What do you say, Rogers? It's your map, you think you can wipe Hydra off of it?

    Steve Rogers: Yes, sir. I'll need a team.

    Col. Chester Phillips: We're already putting together the best men.

    Steve Rogers: With all due respect, sir, so am I.

  • Steve Rogers: [picking up a shield] What about this one?

    Howard Stark: No, no, that's just a prototype.

    Steve Rogers: What's it made of?

    Howard Stark: Vibranium. It's stronger than steel and a third the weight. It's completely vibration absorbent.

  • Peggy Carter: What do you plan to do? Walk to Austria?

    Steve Rogers: If that's what it takes.

    Peggy Carter: You heard the Colonel, you're friend is most likely dead.

    Steve Rogers: You don't know that.

    Peggy Carter: Even so, he's devising a strategy to take...

    Steve Rogers: By the time he's done that, it could be too late! You told me you thought I was meant for more than this. Did you mean that?

    Peggy Carter: Every word.

    Steve Rogers: Then you gotta let me go.

    Peggy Carter: I can do more than that...

  • Col. Chester Phillips: Johann Schmidt belongs in a bug house. He thinks he's a God and he's willing to blow half the world prove it, starting with the U.S.A.

    Howard Stark: Schmidt's working with powers beyond our capabilities. He gets across the Atlantic, he will wipe out the entire eastern sea board in an hour.

    Gabe Jones: How much time we got?

    Col. Chester Phillips: According to my new best friend, under twenty four hours.

    Jim Morita: Where is he now?

    Col. Chester Phillips: Hydra's last base is here.

    [Holds up photo]

    Col. Chester Phillips: In the Alps. Five hundred feet below the surface.

    Jim Morita: o, what are we supposed to do. I mean, it's not like we can just knock on the front door.

    Steve Rogers: [Thinks] Why not? That's exactly what we're gonna do.

  • Peggy Carter: You have no idea how to talk to a woman, do you?

    Steve Rogers: I think this is the longest conversation I've had with one. Women aren't exactly lining up to dance with a guy they might step on.

  • Steve Rogers: [Right before they zipline onto the moving train Dr. Zola is on] We've only got about a 10 second window. You miss that window and we're all just bugs on a windshield!

    Steve Rogers: Mind the Gap!

  • Steve Rogers: What about the others? Are you planning a rescue mission?

    Col. Chester Phillips: Yeah, it's called winning the war.

    Steve Rogers: But if you know where they are, why not at least...

    Col. Chester Phillips: They're thirty miles behind the lines, through some of the most heavily fortified territory in Europe. We'd lose more men than we'd save, but I don't expect you to understand that because you're a chorus girl.

    Steve Rogers: I think I understand just fine.

    Col. Chester Phillips: Well, then understand it somewhere else.

  • [about to fight a squadron of black ops]

    Steve Rogers: Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?

  • Natasha Romanoff: Did you do anything fun Saturday night?

    Steve Rogers: Well, all the guys from my barbershop quartet are dead, so no, not really.

    Natasha Romanoff: You know, if you ask Kristen out, from Statistics, she'd probably say yes.

    Steve Rogers: That's why I don't ask.

    Natasha Romanoff: Too shy, or too scared?

    Steve Rogers: Too busy!

    [Jumps out of the plane]

    Strike Agent: Was he wearing a parachute?

    Brock Rumlow: [Smiles] No. No, he wasn't.

  • Steve Rogers: Attention all S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, this is Steve Rogers. You've heard a lot about me over the last few days. Some of you were even ordered to hunt me down. But I think it's time to tell the truth. S.H.I.E.L.D. is not what we thought it was. It's been taken over by HYDRA. Alexander Pierce is their leader. The S.T.R.I.K.E. and Insight crew are HYDRA as well. I don't know how many more, but I know they're in the building. They could be standing right next to you. They almost have what they want. Absolute control. They shot Nick Fury. And it won't end there. If you launch those helicarriers today, HYDRA will be able to kill anyone that stands in their way. Unless we stop them. I know I'm asking a lot. But the price of freedom is high. It always has been. And it's a price I'm willing to pay. And if I'm the only one, then so be it. But I'm willing to bet I'm not.

    Sam Wilson: Did you write that down first, or was it off the top of your head?

  • [first lines]

    Steve Rogers: On your left.

  • Steve Rogers: You know me.

    The Winter Soldier: No, I don't!

    [attacks Steve]

    Steve Rogers: Bucky. you've known me your entire life. Your name is James Buchanan Barnes...

    The Winter Soldier: SHUT UP!

    [hits Steve]

    Steve Rogers: I'm not gonna fight you. You're my friend.

    [drops his shield]

    The Winter Soldier: [Lunges at Steve and repeatedly pummels him] You're my mission! YOU ARE MY MISSION!

    Steve Rogers: [bruised and bloodied just as the Winter Soldier is about to deliver a final blow] Then finish it. 'Cause I'm with you 'til the end of the line.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Hey, fellas. Either one of you know where the Smithsonian is? I'm here to pick up a fossil.

    Steve Rogers: That's hilarious.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Kiss me.

    Steve Rogers: What?

    Natasha Romanoff: Public displays of affection make people very uncomfortable.

    Steve Rogers: Yes, they do.

    [Natasha grabs and kisses Rogers, causing a passing Rumlow to look away uncomfortably]

    Natasha Romanoff: [uncomfortable herself] You still uncomfortable?

    Steve Rogers: [even more uncomfortable] That's not exactly the word I would use.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Alright, I have a question for you, which you do not have to answer. I feel like if you don't answer it, though, you're kind of answering it, you know?

    Steve Rogers: What?

    Natasha Romanoff: Was that your first kiss since 1945?

    Steve Rogers: That bad, huh?

    Natasha Romanoff: I didn't say that.

    Steve Rogers: Well, it kind of sounds like that's what you're saying.

    Natasha Romanoff: No, I didn't. I just wondered how much practice you had.

    Steve Rogers: I don't need practice.

    Natasha Romanoff: Everybody needs practice.

    Steve Rogers: It was not my first kiss since 1945. I'm 95; I'm not dead.

  • Peggy Carter: Steve. You're alive. You came back.

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, Peggy.

    Peggy Carter: It's been so long. So long.

    Steve Rogers: Well, I couldn't leave my best girl. Not when she owes me a dance.

  • Nick Fury: We have to assume everyone aboard those carriers is HYDRA. We have to get past them, insert these server blades. And maybe, just maybe, we can salvage what's left...

    Steve Rogers: We're not salvaging anything. We're not just taking down the carriers, Nick. We're taking down S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Nick Fury: S.H.I.E.L.D. had nothing to do with this.

    Steve Rogers: You gave me this mission. This is how it ends. S.H.I.E.L.D.'s been compromised. You said so yourself. HYDRA grew right under your nose and nobody noticed.

    Nick Fury: Why do you think we're meeting in this cave? I noticed.

    Steve Rogers: How many paid the price before you did?

    Nick Fury: Look, I didn't know about Barnes.

    Steve Rogers: Even if you had, would you have told me? Or would you have compartmentalized that, too? S.H.I.E.L.D., HYDRA, it all goes.

    Maria Hill: He's right.

    Sam Wilson: [Fury glances at Natasha, who gives a quiet indication of the same opinion. Fury then looks at Wilson] Don't look at me. I do what he does, just slower.

    Nick Fury: Well... It looks like you're giving the orders now, Captain.

  • Sam Wilson: You're a lot heavier than you look.

    Steve Rogers: I had a big breakfast.

  • Steve Rogers: Bucky?

    The Winter Soldier: Who the hell is Bucky?

  • Steve Rogers: You just can't stop yourself from lying, can you?

    Nick Fury: I didn't lie. Agent Romanoff had a different mission than yours.

    Steve Rogers: Which you didn't feel obliged to share.

    Nick Fury: I'm not obliged to do anything.

    Steve Rogers: Those hostages could have died, Nick.

    Nick Fury: I sent the greatest soldier in history to make sure that didn't happen.

    Steve Rogers: Soldiers trust each other. That's what makes it an army. Not a bunch of guys running around shooting guns.

    Nick Fury: Last time I trusted someone, I lost an eye. Look, I didn't want you doing anything you weren't comfortable with. Agent Romanoff is comfortable with everything.

    Steve Rogers: I can't lead a mission when the people I'm leading have missions of their own.

    Nick Fury: It's called compartmentalization. Nobody spills the secrets, because nobody knows them all.

    Steve Rogers: Except you.

    Nick Fury: You're wrong about me. I do share. I'm nice like that.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Where did Captain America learn to steal a car?

    Steve Rogers: Nazi Germany. And we're borrowing. Get your feet off the dash.

  • Sam Wilson: Hey, Cap, how do we know the good guys from the bad guys?

    Steve Rogers: If they're shooting at you, they're bad.

  • Steve Rogers: Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky.

  • [last lines]

    Sam Wilson: You're going after him.

    Steve Rogers: You don't have to come...

    Sam Wilson: I know. When do we start?

  • Nick Fury: These new long range precision guns can eliminate a thousand hostiles a minute. The satellites can read a terrorist's DNA before he steps outside his spider hole. We're gonna neutralize a lot of threats before they even happen.

    Steve Rogers: I thought the punishment usually came *after* the crime.

    Nick Fury: We can't afford to wait that long.

    Steve Rogers: Who's "we"?

    Nick Fury: After New York, I convinced the World Security Council we needed a quantum surge in threat analysis. For once we're way ahead of the curve.

    Steve Rogers: By holding a gun at everyone on Earth and calling it protection.

    Nick Fury: You know, I read those SSR files. Greatest generation? You guys did some nasty stuff.

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, we compromised. Sometimes in ways that made us not sleep so well. But we did it so the people could be free. This isn't freedom, this is fear.

    Nick Fury: S.H.I.E.L.D. takes the world as it is, not as we'd like it to be. And it's getting damn near past time for you to get with that program, Cap.

    Steve Rogers: Don't hold your breath.

  • Natasha Romanoff: I know who killed Fury. Most of the intelligence community doesn't believe he exists. The ones that do call him the Winter Soldier. He's credited for over two dozen assassinations in the last 50 years.

    Steve Rogers: So he's a ghost story.

    Natasha Romanoff: Five years ago I was escorting a nuclear engineer out of Iran, somebody shot at my tires near Odessa. We lost control, went straight over a cliff, I pulled us out, but the Winter Soldier was there. I was covering my engineer, so he shot him straight *through* me.

    [Shows him the bullet would on her stomach]

    Natasha Romanoff: A Soviet slug, no rifling. Bye-bye bikinis.

    Steve Rogers: [sarcastic] Yeah, I bet you look terrible in them now.

    Natasha Romanoff: Going after him is a dead end. I know, I've tried. Like you said, he's a ghost story.

    Steve Rogers: Well, let's find out what the ghost wants.

  • Steve Rogers: People are gonna die, Buck. I can't let that happen.

  • Steve Rogers: We have nowhere else to go.

    Natasha Romanoff: Everyone we know is trying to kill us.

    Sam Wilson: [takes them in] Not everyone...

  • [Captain America and Batroc fight]

    Georges Batroc: [In French] I thought you were more than a shield.

    [the Captain puts the shield on his back and takes off his mask]

    Steve Rogers: [in French] We'll see.

  • Steve Rogers: [after Natasha takes the flash drive Steve hid in a vending machine] Where is it?

    Natasha Romanoff: Safe.

    Steve Rogers: Do better!

    Natasha Romanoff: Where did you get it?

    Steve Rogers: Why would I tell you?

    Natasha Romanoff: Fury gave it to you. Why?

    Steve Rogers: What's on it?

    Natasha Romanoff: I don't know.

    Steve Rogers: Stop lying!

    Natasha Romanoff: I only act like I know everything, Rogers.

  • Steve Rogers: This is it?

    [sees he's at his old army base]

    Natasha Romanoff: Well, the file came from these coordinates.

    Steve Rogers: So did I.

  • Brock Rumlow: The target is a mobile satellite launch platform: The Lemurian Star. It was sending up their last payload when pirates took them, ninety-three minutes ago.

    Steve Rogers: Any demands?

    Brock Rumlow: A billion and a half.

    Steve Rogers: Why so steep?

    Brock Rumlow: Because it's S.H.I.E.L.D.'s.

    Steve Rogers: [sighs] So it's not off course; it's trespassing.

    Natasha Romanoff: I'm sure they have a good reason.

    Steve Rogers: You know, I'm getting a little tired of being Fury's janitor.

  • Jasper Sitwell: Is this little display meant to insinuate that you're gonna throw me off the roof? Because it's really not your style, Rogers.

    Steve Rogers: You're right. It's not. It's hers.

    [Natasha throws Sitwell off the roof]

    Natasha Romanoff: Oh, wait. What about that girl from accounting, Laura, Lisa...?

    Steve Rogers: Lillian. Lip piercing, right?

    Natasha Romanoff: Yeah, she's cute.

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, I'm not ready for that.

  • Natasha Romanoff: First rule of going on the run is: "Don't run. Walk."

    Steve Rogers: [in a pair of loose shoes] If I run in these shoes they're going to fall off.

  • Brock Rumlow: Whoa, big guy. I just want you to know, Cap, this isn't personal!

    [tries to attack Rogers, gets knocked out]

    Steve Rogers: It kind of feels personal.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Shall we play a game?

    [Smiles and turns to Steve]

    Natasha Romanoff: It's from a movie that...

    Steve Rogers: Yeah, I saw it.

  • Natasha Romanoff: Tell me about the shooter.

    Steve Rogers: He's fast. Strong. Had a metal arm.

  • [from trailer]

    Alexander Pierce: Are you ready for the world to see you as you really are? Look out the window, you know how the game works: disorder, war, all it takes is one step.

    Steve Rogers: I thought the punishment usually came AFTER the crime.

  • Steve Rogers: Arnim Zola was a German scientist who worked with the Red Skull. He's been dead for years.

    Dr. Arnim Zola: [inside a machine] First correction, I am Swiss. Second, look around you, I have never been more alive! In 1972, I received a terminal diagnosis. Science could not save my body. My mind, however, that was worth saving... on two hundred thousand feet of data banks! You are standing in my brain!

  • Natasha Romanoff: The truth is a matter of circumstances; it's not all things to all people all the time. And neither am I.

    Steve Rogers: That's a tough way to live.

    Natasha Romanoff: It's a good way not to die, though.

    Steve Rogers: You know, it's kind of hard to trust someone when you don't know who that someone really is.

    Natasha Romanoff: Yeah. Who do you want me to be?

    Steve Rogers: How about a friend?

    Natasha Romanoff: [chuckles] Well, there's a chance you might be in the wrong business, Rogers.

  • Steve Rogers: You should be proud of yourself, Peggy.

    [looks at Peggy's family photos by her table beside her, showing her with her husband and children]

    Peggy Carter: Mm. I have lived a life. My only regret is that you didn't get to live yours.

    [Sees Steve is downcast]

    Peggy Carter: What is it?

    Steve Rogers: For as long as I can remember I just wanted to do what was right. I guess I'm not quite sure what that is anymore. And I thought I could throw myself back in and follow orders, serve. It's just not the same.

    Peggy Carter: [chuckles] You're always so dramatic. Look, you saved the world. We rather... mucked it up.

    Steve Rogers: You didn't. Knowing that you helped found S.H.I.E.L.D. is half the reason I stay.

    Peggy Carter: [takes Steve's hand] The world has changed, and none of us can go back. All we can do is our best, and sometimes the best that we can do is to start over.

  • Natasha Romanoff: What about the nurse that lives across the hall from you? She seems kind of nice.

    Steve Rogers: Secure the engine room, then find me a date.

    Natasha Romanoff: [jumping off deck over the railings] I'm multitasking.

  • Sam Wilson: You must miss the good old days, huh?

    Steve Rogers: Well, things aren't so bad. Food's a lot better; we used to boil everything. No polio is good. Internet, so helpful. I've been reading that a lot trying to catch up.

  • Sam Wilson: [after a VA meeting] Well, if it isn't the Running Man.

    Steve Rogers: I saw the last few minutes; it was intense.

    Sam Wilson: Yeah, brother, we all got the same problems. Guilt, regret...

    Steve Rogers: You lose someone?

    Sam Wilson: My wingman, Riley. Fly in the night mission. A standard PJ rescue op, nothing we hadn't done a thousand times before, till an RPG knocks Riley's dumb ass out of the sky. Nothing I could do. It's like I was up there just to watch.

    Steve Rogers: I'm sorry.

    Sam Wilson: After that, I had a really hard time finding a reason for being over there, you know?

    Steve Rogers: But you're happy now, back in the world?

    Sam Wilson: Hey, the number of people giving me orders is down to about zero. So, hell, yeah. You thinking about getting out?

    Steve Rogers: No. I don't know. To be honest, I don't know what I would do with myself if I did.

    Sam Wilson: Ultimate fighting?

    [Steve laughs]

    Sam Wilson: It's just a great idea off the top of my head. But seriously, you could do whatever you want to do. What makes you happy?

    Steve Rogers: [Caught off guard by the question] I don't know.

  • Sam Wilson: Look, whoever he used to be and the guy he is now, I don't think he's the kind you save. He's the kind you stop.

    Steve Rogers: I don't know if I can do that.

    Sam Wilson: Well, he might not give you a choice. He doesn't know you.

    Steve Rogers: He will. Gear up. It's time.

    Sam Wilson: You gonna wear that?

    Steve Rogers: No. If you're gonna fight a war, you got to wear a uniform.

  • Jasper Sitwell: Zola'a algorithm is a program for choosing Insight's targets.

    Steve Rogers: What targets?

    Jasper Sitwell: You! A TV anchor in Cairo, the Under Secretary of Defense, a high school valedictorian in Iowa City, Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange, anyone who's a threat to HYDRA. Now, or in the future.

    Steve Rogers: In the future? How could it know?

    Jasper Sitwell: How could it not? The 21st century is a digital book. Zola told HYDRA how to read it. Your bank records, medical histories, voting patterns, emails, phone calls, your damn SAT scores! Zola's algorithm evaluates people's past to predict their future.

    Steve Rogers: And what then?

    Jasper Sitwell: Oh, my God. Pierce is gonna kill me.

    Steve Rogers: What then?

    Jasper Sitwell: Then the Insight helicarriers scratch people off the list. A few million at a time.

  • Kate: Captain.

    Steve Rogers: Neighbor.

  • Steve Rogers: [Comes home to find Fury in his apartment] I don't remember giving you a key.

    Nick Fury: You really think I'd need one? My wife kicked me out.

    Steve Rogers: Didn't know you were married.

    Nick Fury: There are a lot of things you don't know about me.

    Steve Rogers: I know, Nick. That's the problem.

    [Flicks on a light, notices Fury is injured, is about to say something, but Fury gestures for him to be silent]

    Nick Fury: [Holds up a message on his phone: EARS EVERYWHERE] I'm sorry to have do this, but I had no place else to crash.

    [Holds about another message: SHIELD COMPROMISED]

    Steve Rogers: Who else knows about your wife?

    Nick Fury: [Another message: YOU AND ME] Just... my friends.

    Steve Rogers: Is that what we are?

    Nick Fury: That's up to you.

  • Steve Rogers: [gets into Black Widow's car] Can't run everywhere.

    Sam Wilson: No, you can't.

  • Steve Rogers: [in an elevator] You know, they used to play music.

    Nick Fury: Yeah. My grandfather operated one of these things for forty years. My granddad - worked in a nice building; he got good tips. He'd walk home every night, roll of ones stuffed in his lunch bag. He'd say "hi", people would say hi back. Time went on, neighborhood got rougher. He'd say "Hi", they'd say, "Keep on steppin'." Granddad got to grippin' that lunch bag a little tighter.

    Steve Rogers: Did he ever get mugged?

    Nick Fury: [laughs] Every week some punk would say, "What's in the bag?"

    Steve Rogers: Well, what did he do?

    Nick Fury: He'd show 'em. A bunch of crumpled ones... and a loaded 0.22 Magnum. Granddad loved people. But he didn't trust them very much.

  • Natasha Romanoff: After WWII, S.H.I.E.L.D. recruited German scientists with strategic value.

    Dr. Arnim Zola: So I could help their cause. I also helped my own.

    Steve Rogers: HYDRA died with the Red Skull.

    Dr. Arnim Zola: Cut off one head, two more shall take its place.

  • Natasha Romanoff: When I first joined S.H.I.E.L.D., I thought it was going straight. But I guess I just traded in the KGB for HYDRA. I thought I knew whose lies I was telling, but... I guess I can't tell the difference anymore.

    Steve Rogers: There's a chance you might be in the wrong business.

    Natasha Romanoff: [Smiles slightly] I owe you.

    Steve Rogers: It's okay.

    Natasha Romanoff: If it was the other way around, and it was down to me to save your life, now, you be honest with me, would you trust me to do it?

    Steve Rogers: I would now. And I'm always honest.

    Natasha Romanoff: Well, you seem pretty chipper for someone who just found out they died for nothing.

    Steve Rogers: Well, I guess I just like to know who I'm fighting.

  • Sam Wilson: Don't say it! Don't you say it!

    Steve Rogers: [running by Sam] On your left.

    Sam Wilson: Come on man!

  • Steve Rogers: What were you doing on the Lemurian Star?

    Jasper Sitwell: [Sarcastically] Throwing up. I get seasick.

  • Steve Rogers: As much as I'd like to live out this beer commercial, I've got responsibilities.

  • Steve Rogers: ...I'm handcuffed, I'm in jail, and my butt hurts. This is not good!
