You Velleks. Always looking for a battle with no idea how to fight one.

Stavros [to Lucia and Giorgio]

Sasha: The guy who caused all our problems may have just solved them. Or maybe this is another trick.
Tom: Either way, we'll handle it. But my guess is that you were always right about him.
Sasha: Well, if that's the truth, it probably just cost him his life.

Fletcher: You're a lunatic.
Vellek: No, a lunatic is the mind that refuses to evolve. Lunacy is this world, here and now, doing the same thing over and over, going down the same street, falling down the same manhole, expecting different results. The sad cycle of failure. But I'm going to change all that.

Giorgio: My dad likes to say that not only is life not fair, but no one promised it would be. You make your own fate.
Fletcher: Well, I hope he appreciates what you've done.

Giorgio: But my old man doesn't give a rat's ass. All he cares about are his hippie mind-control drugs.
Fletcher: Mind-control drugs? What are you talking about?

Tom: Vellek wants to feed the world on his terms, and neutralize anyone who tries to oppose him.
Sasha: Same as every tyrant in history. He's just come up with a novel plan. That's why the world still needs people with Level 9 aggression.

Sasha: So much for sneaking in the back door.
Danny: So we go in the front. His fighters are from all over the region. Who's going to notice five more?
Sasha: Five? There are seven of us.
Danny: Looks like it's boys only.

Very soon, your country will eat again, as kings.

Vellek [to Fletcher]

I'm going to find out what killed this man [Dimitrios], but it was not my science.

Vellek

Don't turn your back on me, son. We're going to do great things, you and me.

Vellek [to Christos]

A kid grows up and disappoints his father ... that's a story as old as time. Don't think for one second that I need you.

Vellek [to Christos]

Never again. Do you hear me, Miller? We never let something like this happen to us ever again.

Burk [to Miller]

What do we tell the crew?

Slattery

Are you telling me the whole world is dying and they sent two people to save it?
