Total quotes: 3
“[talks to a now-frozen Sebastian Shaw] If you're in there, I'd like you to know that I agree with every word you said. We are the future. But unfortunately, you killed my mother. [pulls out Reichsmark coin he gave him so long ago] This is what we're going to do. I'm going to count to three, and I'm going to move the coin. [he slowly lunges the coin at his head] One. [It gets closer and closer] Two. Three. [coin penetrates his skull and shoots through his head, killing Shaw...to Emma Frost] I prefer Magneto.”

“[At a Nazi concentration camp in Poland]
Klaus Schmidt: [in German] Understand this, Erik...these Nazis, I'm not like them. Genes are the key, yes? But their goals? Blue eyes? Blonde hair? Pathetic. [he gives him a chocolate bar] Eat the chocolate. It's good. Want some?

Erik Lehnsherr: I want to see my mama.

Schmidt: Genes are the key that unlocks the door to a new age, Erik. A new future for mankind. Evolution. You know what I'm talking about? It's a simple thing I ask of you. [gestures to a small Nazi coin on the desk] A little coin is nothing compared to a big gate. Is it? [Erik attempts to move the coin but fails]

Lehnsherr: I tried, Herr Doctor. I can't... I don't... It's impossible. [this displeases Schmidt]

Schmidt: The one thing I can say for the Nazis is their methods seem to produce results. I'm sorry, Erik. [rings bell to summon soldiers who come in with his mother]

Lehnsherr: Mama!”

“[Erik addresses the other mutants on the beach]
Erik Lehnsherr: This society won't accept us. We form our own. The humans have played their hand. Now we get ready to play ours. Who's with me? [looks to Mystique] No more hiding.

Charles Xavier: [she kneels by Charles] You should go with him. It's what you want.

Mystique: You promised me you'd never read my mind.

Xavier: I've promised you a great many things, I'm afraid. I'm sorry.”
