LSir Laban
(On Griffith) Beyond all others. Perhaps we have fought by a hero such as the like of which comes around once in a hundred years. A commander beyond all others.

Stake your lives on this fight! Our survival demands that we stake our lives on this fight! And to survive, is to be victorious!
(In response to the enemy's shock) What are you, idiots? Your head has been cut off, your leader is dead, your castle has fallen. Don't tell me you haven't figured it out yet!
PRPurple Rhino Knight
We lost?
Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time I wore a skirt, let alone a fancy gown. And look at all my muscle. The truth now; I look silly, don't I?
No, you look very lovely.
QQueen
Griffith, if you think you can burn me, the Queen, you are mistaken! You can't kill me! You're common. I won't allow it!
Death on the battlefield comes regardless of class, royal or common. The loser must die!
Do you think me a dreadful man? I had you take such a part in my affairs, while never getting my own hands dirty. I left the most difficult and dangerous tasks to you alone. Do you then not, resent me?
You do realize you're talking to the man who slaughtered a hundred men. I think it makes your question kind of pointless. You're just following your path, you still believe that, don't you?
You're going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it? I'm sure you'll overcome this. You'll walk again ... soon.
(On his sword) Is this reality? It has always been at my side, through pain I could hardly endure. Yes, this is part of me. Whenever I met death, my sword was with me as I moved past it. For all the places I have seen, and people I can never forget, I felt everything through the tip of my sword. This sword is the proof that I ever lived.
(Casca leans on Guts' chest, holding his wounded hand.)
You keep getting hurt. You keep spilling your blood because of me... for me... (Casca looks up at Guts, tears streaming down her face.) You fool! You fool...
That day you left, that's when I knew. The thing I could not stop gazing at and thinking about wasn't Griffith, kneeling in the snow defeated for the first time and devastated by it. It was you, watching you walk away from us and never look back. It gripped me, I couldn't accept what I was feeling, this woman unable to blink, unable to turn away as you disappeared. The life I had led since the moment I met Griffith all at once felt betrayed. My life has been an honest one: I have only my pride, and I owe that to Griffith, but... I'm changing. There may be a place for me in this man's soul. Not because of what I may receive, but for something of worth I may have for him.
(After making love to Casca, Guts confesses he'll go his own way after restoring the Hawks to their former status.)
I'll never draw my sword for another man again, or be dangled by someone else's dream. From now on, I'll fight my own battles.
(laughs sarcastically) My, my. How honorable...
(Casca picks up some leaves and tosses them at Guts.)
CCasca (angrily)
You're just like Griffith! Your dream is everything to you! You only think about yourself! You don't give a damn whether or not I'm around, do you?!
Casca...
(Casca beats Guts' chest with her fist, tears in her eyes.)
JUST GO! Do whatever the hell you want and don't look back! Wind up dead somewhere, alone, with your sword!
(She starts to cry, but Guts embraces her.)
Come. You could come with me.
(She stops crying.) Huh?
I don't know what will happen. I know only one thing; that I want to keep holding you...
You fool.
...lie with you a hundred more -- no, a thousand more times. That's how I feel.
(smiles) Stupid...
(They kiss.)
(While in prison, Griffith receives a vision from the God Hand)
VVoid
We shall meet again, in another world. We are kindred, your kinsmen...
I AM IN HELL! This was supposed to be our new beginning! Weren't we going to make a fresh start after we rescued Griffith? Wasn't that it? For a goddamn year now, we've been living like rats; the lucky ones, of course. The other half are dead! "But have faith," they said, "Once Griffith is back, he'll lead us to glory." Bullshit! (smashes his sword against a rock) You know, I had a feeling it would turn out like this, that something like this might happen. But even so, I did hope...
(While discussing plans for the future with Judeau, Guts is interrupted by Gaston and a large group of the Hawks raiders)
GGaston
Commander Guts! Say, you weren't thinking about leaving without saying goodbye again, now, were you? Because if that's the case, we've decided that we're coming with you, and there's nothing you can do about it. It was a unanimous decision.
All of you?
GGaston
As long as you're leading us, we know we can succeed. Please take us with you, Commander.
(The other Hawks join in, begging to come along with Guts)
(thinking) Perhaps, this is what I was looking for my whole life. I hadn't realized it until this very moment, but everything I ever wanted back is right here before me, right now. Why don't I realize what I have until it's lost to me?
OWOld Woman
Listen here boy, this is the only path that leads to the castle. Those who really want to make it to the castle must either step over the ones who have fallen or stay here to pave the road for those who have the will to make it.
