Jax Jackson quotes from Legends of Tomorrow

Jax

To quote every Star Wars movie ever made, "I've got a bad feeling about this."

Jax

We're just gonna pretend like none of this happened? That Mick Rory wasn't part of our team? If you can just ice your best friend like that, I'd hate to think what you could do to us.

Jax

[speaking to the comatose Sara] I've never told anybody this before, but... I'm scared. I don't know who I am if I'm not a part of Firestorm. But then, you've never had any superpowers and that's never stopped you from being the most kick-ass person I've ever met. Well, good talk, Captain. [fist bumps Sara's limp hand]

Jax

[giving his farewell speech] When Gray first dragged me on board this ship, I thought it was the last place that I wanted to be. I mean, you were all a bunch of screw-ups. B-list superheroes, washed-up bank robbers... no offense. But, uh, the thing is... when you get a bunch of broken pieces and you put 'em all together the right way, you make something new. And suddenly, they don't feel so broken anymore. And I'm pretty sure that's what a family is. So, uh... I don't know what happens next, but I know I'll always have a family here, with you guys.

Stein

Why the change of heart?

Jax

You ever play football? Yeah, I didn't think so... Anyway, the best feeling I ever got from being on the field wasn't when I made a great play or we won some game. It was when one of my team-mates took a tackle for me, and I knew they were gonna make sure I was safe. And nobody got to me. Watching all of you rush back to the ship, even those two knuckle-heads, to take on Chronos, made me feel the same way. I like being part of a team, man.

Stein

Me too.

Jax

People actually wore this crap?

Stein

People smoked a lot of pot in the '70s. It clearly had a deleterious effect on the fashion of the era.

Sara Lance

I cannot believe that that is you.

Jax

Seriously, I had no idea you were ever cool.

Stein

I wasn't cool. I was an arrogant little snot.

Jax

Was?

Jax

Is there anything you think about other than yourself.

Snart

Yes. Money.

Stein

Having merged with an insane Russian scientist, I now know how lucky I am to have you as my partner.

Jax

[raises a shot glass in a toast] Partners.

Stein

I'm having the strangest sensation. It's like I'm ten years old again.

Mick

You do a lot of space travel as a kid, Professor?

Stein

Only in my dreams, after I read my first issue of "Rick Starr: Space Ranger."

Jax

Space Ranger Stein? Yeah, I don't see it.

Stein

I wanted to travel through space, surviving only by my wits and laser guns. I even built a rocket out of cardboard boxes.

Rip

What stopped you?

Stein

NASA has rather strict guidelines regarding near-sightedness.

Jax

And smoking weed.

Stein

Seeing white picket fences and perfect family houses, it's enough to make one nostalgic.

Sara

Or nauseated.

Stein

Oh come on, Miss Lance, even someone as jaded as yourself can't deny how idyllic this time was.

Jax

Yeah. If you're white.

Sara

And a man. And straight. And...

Stein

Ok, ok, I get the point.

Rip

He's [Chronos] time-jumping the ship.

Snart

The ladies will be left in 1958?

Jax

What about Ray?

Snart

Like I said.

Jax

Man, I hate wool.

Rip

Be grateful, Mr. Jackson. Those living outside the Kasnian Conglomerate are dressed in rags.

Sara

Conglomerate?

Rip

Yes, in the year 2080, governments began to give way to corporations.

Jax

More like 2008.

Jax

But if we're going to be checking out the future...

Sara

We should probably invite the nerd twins.

Jax

You know, I can already hear what Stein's going to say about 2147:

Stein

[amazed at what he sees] The future, it's...

Sara

[simultaneously with Jax] Astonishing.

Jax

[simultaneously with Sara] Fascinating.

Jax

[to Sara] Well, it was a 50-50 chance which one he'd choose.

Ray

How is it even possible that I am someone's great-great-great-great-grandfather? Before we left in 2016, the only person I was... [trails off]

Jax

Having sex with?

Ray

...ghosted me the week before we left.

Stein

Sh-she died?

Jax

No. No. "Ghosting". It's where you pretend to be dead by not answering somebody's text.

Stein

What a strange age for dating.
