Ed quotes from Fullmetal Alchemist

The Sage's Stone, the Celestial Stone, the Great Elixir, the Red Teacher, the next element; did you really think a substance of so many names would be just limited to a stone?

Brig, Brigadier Grand.

Brigadier Basque? Well, you really wormed your way up.

You're damn right, Crystal Alchemist, and now you'll turn the Philosopher's Stone and all your research over to me.

Edward

The Philosopher's Stone? That thing?

An expiremental leap at best, a roulette at worst. You never know when it's going to reach its limit and backfire. an unstable defected product different from the true stone but during the rebellion, it did augment our abilities and make us tremendously powerful

Alphonse

You're saying the military not only searched for the stone, but in the past, has worked to develope it.

Edward

Nevermind that it isnt perfect. It was made by human hands and it works. That proves that the concept is possible the Philospher's Stone isn't a myth. Where are the design specs?

And what do you intend to do with it when you see it increase your metaling, Fullmetal? This research is top secret and falls under my jurisdiction. I can't permit you access to it. Let's go.

No! Let go of me! Please, I'm sorry I ran! Have mercy! You can't take me back. I can't go back to that place, it's too much i can't take it! The testing, the experiments, my hands are already stained please!

Edward

It's just like before (flash back to nina and tucker driving off in the military cars). Maybe I haven't grown an inch since then. But I can't let my heart stay stunted too.

Scar

Brigadier general Basque Grand iv been looking for you.

You're timings too bad just when I got my hand on this.

Get away.

Scar

Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric. You won't escape either.

Edward

He knows my name too? What the heck's going on here? What have I done to make enemies? Okay, bad question but not bad enough to kill me over.

I heard you on my way in here. You say you're an agent of God. Well... then why don't you try passing judgment on me? That's Alex Louis Armstrong, the StrongArm Alchemist!

Scar

What a righteous day this is turning into! That you would come here and save me the tribulations of finding you! Blessed God, full of grace...

Don't pray just yet, you're facing the technique that's been passed down the Armstrong line for generations, that's hardly a blessing!

Scar

A unique combination of Alchemy and physical power... God help me

"By looking at your body... I can guess that --"

"There's not much to tell... We failed a transmutation and I lost my arm and leg... Al lost his body. That's all."

"But Edward, Alchemy isn't something --"

"Shut up! You just can't show up here and start acting like a father. Not when we had to watch mom die without you. C'mon, Al."

"So that's it ... Hughes must have figured out that much ... And that's why they killed him."

"I'll kill that bastard with my own hands!"

Winry

"Wait, Ed! What's wrong?" [Grabs Ed's arm to keep him from leaving]

"Let me go!"

"It happened right after we left Central?"

"Those millitary jackasses didn't tell us [Looks at Winry] Did you know?!"

Winry

"I'm sorry ... I've known about it for a little while now, Edward."

"There's nothing you can do! Come back downstairs!"

"You've got to be kidding me! If Hughes got killed, then it was our fault for putting him in that situation. He was ... our friend."

Pinako

"When are you gonna grow up?! Colonel Mustang didn't keep you in the dark out of malice, you morons. I've heard about this Hughes guy ... It sounds like he was a great man. But Mustang doesn't want you to be driven by thoughts of revenge. He wants you to realize that there are more important things in life. I bet your friend, Hughes, would have agreed."

"Yeah, but ..."

"I was ... I was wrong about him all that time. I thought the Colonel didn't care about Hughes at all -- that he was out for himself. But what ... but what if he ..."

Winry

"He's determined to become a great man ... Because he promised Hughes he would."

"So he forces himself to search for the right path. Not to be taken in by thoughts of revenge. He's an adult to look up to."

"And why not revenge?! When someone close to you is killed, and you know who's behind it ... How can there be anything more important to you than revenge? If that's being an adult ... then I'm never growing up!"

Pinako

"You grew up when you made the decision to become a dog of the military."

"That bastard ... From now on I hate him."

"Wait! Wait a minute! I didn't promise you anything ya know."

"Why?"

"I'm the one who should be asking why. Why do you want to be human? You guys are immortal, aren't you? And you don't even age at all from what I can tell. You can't be hurt and you have powers no human being can ever top. So why should I believe you when you say you wanna give all that up?"

"You don't know how cruel you're being, do you? All right, why do you want your brother to return to the flesh? He's practically immortal too now. It's the same thing, Edward."

"Hold it! The person you were talking about, the one you call 'Master'... Just tell me one thing... Is it somebody that I know?"

"You know something... If you make me human, I just might answer that question."

"Hey! Don't forget... I still have your weakness ya know. [Referring to the locket that contains Lust's human remains.]

"No, Edward... I won't forget about that."

"Even with the Stone... he couldn't make her soul."

Izumi

"And you're fine with this?"

"That soulless doll... is the embodiment of his sins... Just like Sloth represented my sin.. And Wrath your's."

Izumi

"You've really grown up, Edward."

"I've grown up?... I thought I'd grown up when I was certified as a State Alchemist, but obviously I still had a long way to go from there."
