Takezo quotes from Heroes

[after punchng out Hiro] The only thing I have to do, is find me a drink.

Hiro

You are the hero Kensei?

My name here is Kensei, but no one's ever called me a hero before.

Hiro

(in Japanese) Are you sure you're Takezo Kensei?

(in Japanese) Good name, eh? "Kensei" means "sword saint". Men think twice before they trifle with that. I thought of it when I got here from England.

Hiro

[in English] You are English?!

You mustn't fret over everything my very strange little friend! Here, have some sake. Brighten your day.

Hiro

No, forget sake! You're supposed to be a hero!

(drunkenly)You look like a fish when you talk. Like a giant carp!

Hiro

I already made a mess of the past. The space/time continuum can't take anymore. History needs Takezo Kensei to be a hero today... (Hiro puts on Takezo's armor and rides away on horseback.) Ando's never going to believe this one!

(faintly) Sorry, Carp. I'll help you be a hero the next time around.

Hiro

No! You cannot die! (Kensei's wound heals.) Godsend!

I cut myself, and the wound heals. Over and over again.

Hiro

You are a hero, like me. I have power too.

You? Really?

Hiro

Yes. I can stop time and move through space. (teleports behind Takezo) Hello!

How are such things possible?

Hiro

Some say it's a gift from god. Some people think it's evolution.

What is that? Evolution?

Hiro

It means you can heal from any wound.

Really? Any wound? Sword? Serpent? Fire? (Hiro nods.) This'll make me richer than the pope!
