The Terminator Quotes

Michael Biehn as Kyle Reese

• (Michael Biehn) "About what?"
• (Linda Hamilton) "About where you're from."
• (Michael Biehn) "All right. You stay down by day, but at night, you can move around. The H-K's use infrared so you still have to watch out. But they're not too bright. John taught us ways to dust them. That's when the infiltrators started to appear. The Terminators were the newest and the worst --"

• (Michael Biehn) "All right, listen. The Terminator's an infiltration unit: part man, part machine. Underneath, it's a hyperalloy combat chassis, microprocessor-controlled. Fully armored; very tough. But outside, it's living human tissue: flesh, skin, hair, blood; grown for the cyborgs."
• (Linda Hamilton) "Look, Reese, I don't know what you want from --"
• (Michael Biehn) "Pay attention. I gotta ditch this car."

• (Michael Biehn) "I'm here to help you. I'm Reese. Sergeant Tech-Com, DN38416. Assigned to protect you. You've been targeted for termination."

• (Michael Biehn) "Come on, motherf***er."

• (Michael Biehn) "John Connor gave me a picture of you once. I didn't know why at the time. It was very old; torn, faded. You were young like you are now. You seemed just a little sad. I used to always wonder what you were thinking at that moment. I memorized every line, every curve -- I came across time for you, Sarah. I love you; I always have."

• (Michael Biehn) "Come with me if you want to live."

• (Michael Biehn) "Cyborgs don't feel pain. I do. Don't do that again."
• (Linda Hamilton) "Just let me go."
• (Michael Biehn) "Listen, and understand. That Terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop -- ever, until you are dead."

• (Michael Biehn) "The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy, but these are new. They look human -- sweat, bad breath, everything. Very hard to spot. I had to wait till he moved on you before I could zero him."

Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor

• (Linda Hamilton) "Guard it for me, big buns."

• (Linda Hamilton) "Reese. Why me? Why does it want me?"
• (Michael Biehn) "There was a nuclear war. A few years from now, all this, this whole place, everything, it's gone. Just gone. There were survivors. Here, there. Nobody even knew who started it. It was the machines, Sarah."
• (Linda Hamilton) "I don't understand."
• (Michael Biehn) "Defense network computers. New -- powerful -- hooked into everything, trusted to run it all. They say it got smart, a new order of intelligence. Then it saw all people as a threat, not just the ones on the other side. Decided our fate in a microsecond: extermination."
• (Linda Hamilton) "Did you see this war?"
• (Michael Biehn) "No. I grew up after. In the ruins -- starving -- hiding from H-K's."
• (Linda Hamilton) "H-K's?"
• (Michael Biehn) "Hunter-Killers. Patrol machines built in automated factories. Most of us were rounded up, put in camps for orderly disposal."
• (Michael Biehn) "This is burned in by laser scan. Some of us were kept alive -- to work -- loading bodies. The disposal units ran night and day. We were that close to going out forever. But there was one man who taught us to fight, to storm the wire of the camps, to smash those metal motherf***ers into junk. He turned it around. He brought us back from the brink. His name is Connor. John Connor. Your son, Sarah -- your unborn son."

• (Linda Hamilton) "The hardest thing is deciding what I should tell you and what not to. But I guess I've got a while yet before you're old enough to even understand the tapes. They're more for me at this point just so I can get it straight. Should I tell you about your father? Boy, that's a tough one. Will it affect your decision to send him here, knowing that he is you father? If you don't send Kyle, you can never be. God, a person can go crazy thinking about all this -- I suppose I will tell you -- I owe him that. Maybe it'll be enough if you know that, in the few hours we had together, we loved a lifetime's worth."

• (Michael Biehn) "Your son gave me a message to give to you. He made me memorize it."
• (Michael Biehn) "Thank you, Sarah, for your courage through the dark years. I can't help you with what you must soon face, except to say that the future is not set. You must be stronger than you imagine you can be. You must survive, or I will never exist."

• (Linda Hamilton) "I'm on my break, Chuck. Carla's got my station."
