Avatar - The Last Airbender Quotes

Azula: Sorry I’m late, Father. Good palanquin bearers are so hard to come by these days. So, is everything ready for our departure?
Ozai: There has been a change of plans, Azula.
Azula: What?!
Ozai: I’ve decided to lead the fleet of airships to Ba Sing Se alone. You will remain here in the Fire Nation.
Azula: But I thought we were going to do this together!
Ozai: My decision is final.
Azula: You... you can’t treat me like this. You can’t treat me like Zuko!
Ozai: Azula, silence yourself!
Azula: But it was my idea to burn everything to the ground! I deserve to be by your side!
Ozai: Azula! Listen to me... I need you here to watch over the homeland, it’s a very important job that I can only entrust to you.
Azula: Really?
Ozai: And for your loyalty, I’ve decided to declare you the new Fire Lord.
Azula: "Fire Lord Azula?"... it does seem appropriate. But, what about you??
Ozai: Fire Lord Ozai is no more. Just as the world will be reborn in fire, I shall be reborn as the supreme ruler of the world. From this moment on, I will be known as... the “Phoenix King”!

Zuko: He's my uncle... and he's not here.
June: I see you worked things out with your girlfriend.
Katara and Zuko together:
Katara: I'm not his girlfriend!
Zuko: She's not my girlfriend! ()
June: Okay, okay, sheesh! I was only teasing. So what do you want?
Zuko: I need your help finding the Avatar.
June: Hm. Doesn't sound too fun.
Zuko: Does the end of the world sound like more fun?!

(June and Nyla being "friendly")
June: Nyla! (Throws juicy meat to Nyla).
June: Who's my little, mmm, shnuffly, wuffly.
(Nyla attacks)
June: Whoa! Careful there. Okay, so who's got something with the Avatar's scent on it?
Katara: I have Aang's staff.
(Nyla searches, but finds that Aang is no where he can smell.)
Zuko: Well, what does that mean?
June: Means you're friend's gone!
Toph: We know he's gone, that's why we're trying to find him.
June: No I mean he's gone gone. He doesn't exist!

TV Show: Avatar - The Last Airbender
Aang: Where are we Momo? Maybe I'm in the spirit world? But wait, you can see me. We could both be in the spirit world. (Airbends). Nope, my bending works. Maybe if we climb to the top of the island, we can figure out where we are.

TV Show: Avatar - The Last Airbender
Sokka: What do you mean, Aang doesn't "exist." Do you mean he's, you know, dead?
June: Nope, we could find him if he were dead. Ah, that's a real headscratcher. See ya!
Toph: Helpful, real Helpful!
Zuko: Wait, I have another idea. There's only one other person in this world who can help us face the firelord. I'll be right back with a smell sample.

Bumi: That's the one!

Bumi: Wait! Someone's missing from your group! Someone very important! (King Bumi leans into Sokka's face, wide eyed, they are nose to nose) (pause) Where's Momo?
Sokka: He's gone... and so is Aang.
Bumi: Oh, well. So long as they have each other, I'm sure we have nothing to worry about. Let's go. (he Earthbends himself in the air and laughs crazily)

Fire Nation Guard(during the eclipse): What do your think you're doing?
[The guards try to firebend, but can't because of the eclipse.]
Bumi: Taking back my city. You've got no firepower and it's payback time.

TV Show: Avatar - The Last Airbender
Bumi: So what about you guys? Did you do anything interesting on the day of the eclipse?
(Sokka and Zuko look at each other)
Zuko: Nah.
Sokka: No, not really.

Zuko apologizes to Iroh for his previous betrayal at Ba Sing Se
Zuko: Uncle, I know you must have mixed feelings about seeing me. But I want you to know... I am so, so sorry uncle. (starts crying) I am so sorry and ashamed of what I did! I don't know how I can ever make it up to you, but I...
(Iroh grabs Zuko by his shirt and embraces him)
Zuko: How can you forgive me so easily?! I thought you would be furious with me!
Iroh: I was never angry with you. I was sad, because I was afraid you'd lost your way.
Zuko: I did lose my way.
Iroh: But you found it again! And you did it by yourself! And I'm so happy you found your way here.
Zuko: It wasn't that hard uncle. You have a pretty strong scent.

Avatar Roku: If I had been more decisive, and acted sooner, I could have stopped Sozin, and stopped the war before it started. I offer you this wisdom, Aang, you must be decisive.

Avatar Kyoshi: In my day, Chin the Conqueror threatened to throw the world out of balance. I stopped him, and the world entered a great era of peace.
Aang: But you didn’t really kill Chin; technically, he fell to his own doom because he was too stubborn to get out of the way.
Avatar Kyoshi: Personally, I don’t really see the difference, but I assure you, I would have done whatever it took to stop Chin. I offer you this wisdom, Aang, only justice will bring peace.
Aang: I knew I shouldn't have asked Kyoshi.

Avatar Kuruk: I lost the woman I loved, to Koh, the face stealer. It was my fault. If I had been more attentive and more active, I could have saved her. Aang, you must actively shape your own destiny and the destiny of the world.

Aang: All these past Avatars, they keep telling me I'm gonna have to do it. They don't get it.
Momo makes some incomprehensible sound.
Aang: You're right! Maybe an Air Nomad Avatar will understand where I'm coming from.
Momo stares.
Aang: I know you can't really talk. Pretending you can helps me think.
Momo makes some more sound.
Aang: I'm going to pretend I didn't pretend to hear that.

Avatar Yangchen: Here is my wisdom for you: selfless duty calls for you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs, and do whatever it takes to protect the world.
Aang: (to Momo, after Yangchen disappears) I guess I don’t have a choice, Momo. I have to kill the Fire Lord.

Zuko: So if I'm going to be Fire Lord after the war is over, what are you gonna do?
Iroh: After I reconquer Ba Sing Se, I'm going to reconquer my tea shop! (flips the White Lotus Tile) And I'm going to play Pai Sho every day.
Katara: Goodbye, General Iroh!
Iroh: Goodbye, everyone. Today, destiny is our friend. I know it.

Azula: All right hair, it's time to face your doom. (she cuts her bangs and smiles crazily at her reflection. Her face falls at the sight of her mother in the mirror.)
Ursa: What a shame. You always had such beautiful hair.
Azula: What are you doing here?
Ursa: I didn't want to miss my own daughter's coronation.
Azula: Don't pretend to act proud. I know what you really think of me. You think I'm a monster.
Ursa: I think you're confused. All your life, you've used fear to control people, like your friends Mai and Ty Lee.
Azula: But what choice do I have?! Trust is for fools! Fear is the only reliable way! [more quietly] Even you fear me.
Ursa: No. I love you, Azula. I do.

Dai Li agent: You sent for us, Princess? Is everything all right?
Azula: Actually, everything's not all right. You know how long it took you to get here?
Dai Li agent: Uh, a few minutes, I guess.
Azula: Five, to be precise. In which time an assassin could have snuck in, done away with me and been on his merry way.
Dai Li agent: My apologies, Princess.
Azula: Is this how you plan to treat your new Fire Lord? With tardiness and disloyalty?
Dai Li agent: The Dai Li would never betray you!
Azula: And I'm sure that's just what you told Long Feng before you turned against him and joined me. (pause) You're all banished!
Dai Li agent: But--
Azula: Goodbye! Please send in the next group on your way out.

After Toph took out a few Firebenders
Sokka: Good work, Toph. Time to take control of the ship. Take the wheel.
Toph: (sarcastically) That's a great idea, let the blind girl steer the giant airship.
Sokka: I was talking to Suki.
Toph: That would make a lot more sense.

Sokka: (posing as the captain of the airship) Attention crew, this is your captain speaking. Everyone please report to the bomb bay immediately for hotcakes and sweet cream. We have a very special birthday to celebrate.
(cut to the bomb bay):
Quin Lee: Hey, I'm Quin Lee. I work up in communications.
Fire Nation Engineer: Oh, hi. I work down in the engine room. That's probably why we never met before. Big airship, you know.
Quin Lee: Yep. (a pause) So, do you know who's birthday it is?
Firebender: I can't believe the captain remembered my birthday. He really does care!
(The bomb bay hatch opens, dropping the entire crew in the sea)
Fire Nation Engineer: (surfaces from the water) Happy birthday.

Lo: Azula, we've heard what happened.
Li: Why have you banished all your servants?
Lo: And your Dai Li agents?
Li: And the Imperial Firebenders?
Azula: None of them could be trusted. Sooner or later they all would have betrayed me, just like Mai and Ty Lee did.
Lo & Li: Azula, we are concerned for you and your well-being.
Azula: My father asked you to come down here and talk to me, didn't he? He thinks I can't handle the responsibility of being Fire Lord. But I will be the greatest leader in Fire Nation history.
Lo: I am sure you will, but considering everything that has happened today.
Li: Perhaps it's best if we postpone your coronation.
Azula: (turns around) What?! Which one of you just said that?
(Lo and Li point at each other)
Azula: What a shame. There's only one way to settle this. You two must duel each other! I order you to fight an Agni Kai!
Lo: But...
Lo & Li: We're not Firebenders.
Azula: All right, fine. (points at Li) Lo, you're banished, (points at Lo) Li, you can stay. (walks away)
Li: But I'm Li. So who's banished?
Lo: (shrugs)

Ozai: After generations of Fire Lords failed to find you, now the universe delivers you to me as an act of providence.
Aang: Please listen to me! We don't have to fight. You have the power to end it here and stop what you're doing.
Ozai: You're right, I do have the power. I have all the power in the WORLD!
