Aang: This whole Avatar thing... maybe the monks made a mistake.
Gyatso: The only mistake they made was telling you before you turned sixteen. But we can't concern ourselves with what was. We must act on what is.
Aang: But Gyatso, how do I know if I'm ready for this?
Gyatso: Your questions will be answered when you are old enough to enter the Air Temple sanctuary. Inside you will meet someone who will guide you on your journey.
Aang: (really happy) Who is it?
Gyatso: When you are ready he will reveal himself to you.

Aang: Ugh, what just happened?
Katara: Well uh, you sort of just...confessed.

Aang: We need to find a way to jog his real memories.
Sokka: (provokingly) Maybe Katara should kiss him! That should bring something back!
Katara: Maybe you should kiss him, Sokka.
Sokka: Hey, just an idea.
Aang: (Perhaps jealous) A bad one.

Aang: Well, I met with this Guru who was supposed to help me master the Avatar State and control this great power, but to do it I had to let go of someone I love and I just couldn't.
Iroh: Perfection and power are overrated. I think you were very wise to choose happiness and love.
Aang: What happens if I can't save everyone and beat Azula? Without the Avatar State, what if I'm not powerful enough?
Iroh: I don't know the answer. Sometimes life is like this dark tunnel, you can't always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you just keep moving you will come to a better place.
[In the middle of a duel after Zuko betrays Katara]

Aang: What is this?
Mayor Tong: Our new festival food. Uncooked dough. May we eat and remember how on this day, the Avatar was NOT boiled in oil!
Katara: (picks up uncooked dough) Happy Avatar Day.
[Katara and Aang eat the dough]

Aang: What should we do today?
Toph: I'm tapped out. I already picked my toes. Twice.
Aang: Twice?
Toph: The first time's for cleaning, but the second time's just for the sweet picking sensation.

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.

Aang: Where is he?! Where's the Fire Lord?!
Azula: Hmm. You mean I'm not good enough for you? You're hurting my feelings.
Sokka: Stop wasting our time and give us the information! You're powerless, so you're in no position to refuse.
Toph: And stick to the truth. I'll be able to tell if you're lying.
Azula: Are you sure? I'm a pretty good liar. I am a 400 foot tall purple platypus-bear with pink horns and silver wings.
(pause)

Aang: Whoa! Wild shot!
Zhao: [roars with rage] I'll show you wild!

Aang: Wow, camping. It really seems like old times again, doesn't it?
Zuko: If you really want it to feel like old times again, I could... chase you around for a while and try to capture you. (everybody, except Katara, laughs)

Aang: Zuko, get over here! I want you to dance with me!
Zuko: What?!

Aang:(sees a cloud that looks like Appa in front of the moon) Appa!
Sokka: (under the influence of cactus juice) Appa? Now why would Princess Yue need him? (grabs Momo's tail and brushes it against his cheek dreamily) She's the moon; she flies by herself!

Actor Azula: You caught me. Wait! What's that? I think it's your honor!
Actor Zuko: Where?!

Actor Iroh: Prince Zuko, you must try this cake.
Actor Zuko: I dont have time to stuff my face. I must capture the Avatar and regain my honor.
Actor Iroh: While you do that, maybe I'll capture another slice. (Starts eating the cake)
Actor Zuko: You sicken me.
Real Zuko: (about the play): They made me look stiff and completely humorless.
Real Katara: Actually, I think that actor's pretty spot on.
Real Zuko: How can you say that?!
Actor Iroh: Let's forget about the Avatar, and get massages.
Actor Zuko: HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?! (Katara grins, and Zuko pouts)

Actor Jet [zombie-like]: Must serve Earth King! Must destroy! [A paper rock glides down while he babbles incoherently] Noooooooo! [Half of it falls on him, crawls the rest of the way in]
Zuko: Did Jet just...die?
Sokka: You know, it was really unclear...
