“[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.

“[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 goes to CIA facility to break out Emma Frost]
Erik Lehnsherr: I know we've had our differences.

Emma Frost: Where's your telepath friend?

Lehnsherr: Gone. Left a bit of a gap in my life, if I am to be honest. I was rather hoping you could fill it. Join us.

Frost: [she notices the rest of the Brotherhood] Erik, I believe?

Lehnsherr: I prefer...Magneto.”

“[Shaw meets a Russian general in Moscow]
Russian General: Hello.

Sebastian Shaw: [in Russian] Once again, my sympathies for your treatment at the hands of the CIA.

Russian General: These Americans are ruthless.

Shaw: Now they have their missiles placed in Turkey...I expect you'll be planning new missile sites of your own. Somewhere you know the American early-warning system won't help. I hear Cuba is lovely this time of year. And so close to Florida.

Russian General: Missiles in Cuba? You're serious? We may as well declare war.

Shaw: Maybe I wasn't clear enough. You will make this happen.

Russian General: Okay. Let's see what KGB think about this. [he picks up the phone] Hello? General Armivolkoff. [the rest of the Hellfire Club appears] It's nothing. [he hangs up and meets their demands]”

“[Mystique stands naked before Charles in the kitchen, just like when they first met]
Mystique: You know, sometimes I wonder what my life would've been like if you haven't found me here that night.

Charles Xavier: Sorry, what? You... [sees her and averts his eyes] Yaah! God's sake, Raven, where are your clothes? Pu... put... put some clothes on–

Mystique: That's not what you said when you first saw me. But I guess pets are always cuter when they're little, right?

Xavier: Raven, I don't know what's gotten into you lately. I swear, you've been in a good mood. Hank, he tells me that he has found the answer to your cosmetic... [slight pause] problem. You gotta tell me what's the matter, or I'll have to read your mind.

Mystique: [looking deeply hurt] You promised me you would never do that.

Xavier: Until recently, I never had to use my powers to know what you were thinking, Raven.

Mystique: [angrily] You know, Charles, I used to think it was gonna be you and me against the world. But no matter how bad the world gets, you don't wanna be against it, do you? You want to be part of it. [leaves]”

“[Erik sees Sebastian Shaw in the void]
Sebastian Shaw: Erik, what a pleasant surprise. So good to see you again. [Erik enters the void] May I ask you something? Why are you on their side? Why fight for a doomed race who will hunt us down as soon as they realize their reign is coming to an end? [Erik punches him in the face but their is molecular distortion to his face due to all the nuclear energy harnessed] I'm sorry for what happened in the camps. I truly am. [he shoves Erik backwards causing the wall of the void to crack] But everything I did, I did for you. To unlock your power. To make you embrace it. [shoves him across to another wall causing is to break] You've come a long way from bending gates. I'm so proud of you. [lunges metal pillars in front of him to block him] And you're just starting to scratch the surface. Think of how much further we could go, together. [he walks through the pillars with much ease and presses one of them against Erik and get closer to his face] I don't want to hurt you, Erik. I never did. I want to help you. This is our time. Our age. We are the future of the human race. You and me, son. This world could be ours.

“[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.”
