Transformers: The best Quotes by Optimus Prime

Of all the threats from both your past and future. You've never faced anything like this.

Do not forget what you have learned of our past, Rodimus. From its lessons, the future is forged.

There are mysteries to the universe we were never meant to solve, but who we are and why we are here, are not among them, those answers we carry inside.

Earth, the birthplace of the human race. A species much like our own, capable of great compassion and great violence.

Ironhide: "Why are fighting to save the humans? They're a primitive and violent race."
Optimus Prime: "Were we so different? They're a young species. They have much to learn. But I've seen goodness in them. Freedom is the right of all sentient beings."

I will never stop fighting for our freedom!

Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing.

We've suffered losses, but we've not lost the war.

Now, all we need is a little Energon and a lot of luck!

You are going to face justice, and may it be kinder to you than it was to us.

Thank you, all of you. You honor us with your bravery.

Are you going to let it all happen again for something as useless as revenge?

Remember this: you may lose your faith in us, but never in yourselves.

Optimus Prime: "You know we don't harm humans! What is with you?"
Ironhide: "I'm just saying we could. It's an option."

We've learned Earth's languages through the World Wide Web.

A necessary sacrifice to bring peace to this planet. We can not let the humans pay for our mistakes.

My name is Optimus Prime. We are Autonomous Robotic Organisms from the planet Cybertron.

For my world to live, yours must die.

With the All Spark gone, we cannot return life to our planet. And fate has yielded its reward: a new world to call home. We live among its people now, hiding in plain sight, but watching over them in secret, waiting, protecting. I have witnessed their capacity for courage, and though we are worlds apart, like us, there's more to them than meets the eye. I am Optimus Prime and I send this message to any surviving Autobots taking refuge among the stars. We are here. We are waiting.

Before time began, there was the Cube. We know not where it comes from, only that it hold the power to create worlds and fill them with life. That is how our race was born. For a time we lived in harmony, but like all great power, some wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. A war that ravaged our planet until it was consumed by death, and the Cube was lost to the far reaches of space. We scattered across the galaxy, hoping to find and rebuild our home. Searching every star, every world. And just when all hope seemed lost, message of a new discovery drew us to an unknown planet called... Earth. But we were already too late.

Am I crazy not to like this guy? Among some of his Facebook-likes are George W. Bush's Decision Points, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen and the music of Josh Groban. Must I really justify myself any further?

Even people I’ve known for so long soon become strangers to me.
People change and grow tired of having you in their life.
I’m my own best friend. It’s sad, but it is what it is.

Hold your head high, and your middle finger higher!

There's nothing like seeing the smile on my kids' faces. Laughing together. Playing. It's the best.

In my movies, I'm not trying to erase any old image of myself, really. And also I'm not trying to imitate anyone or follow in their footsteps, because I know, Burt Reynolds was just one of the people that told me this, I know how you can only last in this business if you got something special to offer, just by being yourself.

I don't want to let my guard down and feel too comfortable. If you become complacent, you start feeling entitled. I'm ready to go dig ditches if I have to. Whatever I gotta do to provide for my family. Whatever I gotta do to make sure that I do the best possible job at whatever wonderful opportunities I've been handed.

I did a lot of things that I regretted and I certainly paid for my mistakes. You have to go and ask for forgiveness and it wasn't until I really started doing good and doing right, by other people as well as myself, that I really started to feel that guilt go away. So I don't have a problem going to sleep at night.

I pray to be a good servant to God, a father, a husband, a son, a friend, a brother, an uncle, a good neighbor, a good leader to those who look up to me, a good follower to those who are serving God and doing the right thing.

What I wouldn't give to be normal. To live in that bubble, the reality of the naive.

Is it that we collectively thought Steve Jobs was a great man, even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children? Or maybe it's that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit. The world itself's just one big hoax. Spamming each other with out running commentary of bullshit masquerading as insight, our social media faking as intimacy. Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I'm not saying anything new. We all know why we do this, not because "Hunger Games" books makes us happy but because we wanna be sedated. Because it's painful not to pretend, because we're cowards. F*ck society.

Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank. Give a man a bank and he can rob the world.

I understand what it's like to be different, I'm very different too.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a difficult moment for America. I, unfortunately, will be going back to Washington after my remarks. Today we've had a national tragedy. Two airplanes have crashed into the World Trade Center in an apparent terrorist attack on our country.

I don't have friends, I have family.

"We have laws for these things."
"Until they fail. Then you have me."

You don't have time to think up there. If you think, you're dead.

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

We're not just black, we're cops too. We'll pull ourselves over later.

Shimazu: "I want you to find your peace. But a good death only comes after a good life."
John Wick: "You and I left a good life behind a long time ago, my friend."

Your days of fighting to the so-called greater good are over. This is our chance to control the truth - the concepts of right and wrong - for everyone for centuries to come. You're fighting to save an ideal that doesn't exist. Never did. You need to pick a side.

I want revenge. I want them to know that death is coming, and there is nothing they can do to stop it.
