Rainbow Dash quotes from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Rainbow Dash

Lightning Dust! I should've known you were the brains behind a crazy idea like the Washouts! Or should I say, "lack of brains"!

Lightning Dust

Your "friend" got me kicked out of the Wonderbolts.

Scootaloo

Oh. That's, uh, less cool.

Lightning Dust

And it was the best thing that ever happened to me!

Spitfire

You know what happens when something goes wrong with the Crushinator Jaws of Smashalot?

Rainbow Dash

Patent pending?

Spitfire

You end up in a full body wing-and-hoof cast drinking through a straw!

Rainbow Dash

It's like the harder I try to convince Scoot they're dangerous, the more she likes them!

Twilight Sparkle

You can't control her actions. Only yours. Teach her what's safe and what isn't, like a good role model. Then hope she makes the right decisions.

Scootaloo

There's nothing you can do to stop me!

Rainbow Dash

You're right. You're your own foal, and you have to make your own decisions.

Scootaloo

Good! Because I already have!

Rainbow Dash

I know I was supposed to let you make your own decisions, but that doesn't mean I can't swoop in and save you from time to time.

Lightning Dust

RIVALS FOR LIIIIIFE!

Rainbow Dash

I've been lucky enough to have some pony who thinks I'm the coolest. But there's nothing cool about making you feel like you'll never be as awesome as me.

Spike

How did you know I was a boy?

Fluttershy

Whatever happened to Spike's mom?

Rainbow Dash

And how did the egg make it all the way back to Equestria by itself?

Pinkie Pie

Hmm?

I wish I had all the answers. [crying]

Discord

[weakly] Listen to me... you don't need me. You don't need the princesses, and you certainly don't need the elements. [coughs] Fluttershy, you will always be kind. Applejack, you will always be honest. Rarity, you'll always be generous. And Rainbow Dash will be loyal as can be. Pinkie will always bring laughter wherever she goes. And Twilight, you are and always will be the embodiment of magic. You lost sight of what's in front of you. You're here, together, willing to give everything you've got for Equestria. Nothing and nopony can ever take that away from you... because that's who you are.

[laughs] It's going to take more than a sentimental speech to save you.

Twilight Sparkle

Discord's right. We've proven time and time again that the real magic is the six of us working together!

You should be.

Twilight Sparkle

You may knock us down, but we're gonna get back up again! [another fire; she blocks it] And again! [and another] And again! As long as we're together, we will never stop trying to defeat you!

Fluttershy

For our friends!

For our families!

For our home!

Twilight Sparkle

For Equestria!!!

NO! This can't be possible! Your magic can't defeat mine!! I DESTROYED THE SOURCE OF YOUR POWER!!!

Twilight Sparkle

You can't destroy our friendship, Sombra!

Rainbow Dash

And we keep telling bad guys...

Applejack

But y'all just don't seem to remember.

FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! [disintegrates into nothingness]

Twilight Sparkle

I thought everything was fine! WHAT IS GOING ON!?!!

Applejack

Everything was going fine...

Pinkie Pie

Until it totally wasn't.

Fluttershy

We tried to fix it ourselves.

Twilight Sparkle

Why didn't you tell me?

Rainbow Dash

We didn't want you to freak out.

Twilight Sparkle

And you thought NOT telling me everything was a total disaster would AVOID a freak-out?!!

Spike

When you say it like that, it sounds like a really bad plan.

Discord

Here it comes...!

Twilight Sparkle

I know how I used to react... But I really have changed! [smiles] Panicking won't solve anything!

Twilight Sparkle

But we can handle whatever problems come our way, as long as we handle them together.

Princess Celestia

Spoken like a true leader.

Rainbow Dash

Finally! Where have you been?

Fluttershy

I decided to find out which author is really telling the truth, so I joined Dr. C's Tenochtitlan expedition!

Rainbow Dash

Say whaaaaaaat?!

Spike

Starlight is supposed to come over soon. There's a little something we wanted to give you before we leave. You know what? I think you're right, Twilight. I should take my comics to Canterlot. We can't leave the Power Ponies behind.

Twilight Sparkle

I don't think the Power Ponies care, Spike. Just like all of our friends.

Applejack

All right, Twilight. Are you ready? We all wanted to see you off, but there's still a lot to do.

Spike

Aren't you coming on the train?

Applejack

I gotta go with Big Mac so we can go over our packin' list or we won't know who gets what deliveries.

Rainbow Dash

And I'm gonna meet the Wonderbolts so we can go over the routine one last time.

Pinkie Pie

I'm going with Gummy. He said he knows when the fireworks display should start, but does anypony really believe that?!

Fluttershy

And I still need to pick up food for the swans and doves who flew ahead to Canterlot. If I don't get them fed, they'll be too pooped to perform.

Twilight Sparkle

Well, I'll be living in Canterlot alone. Might as well take the train alone, too. Bye, I guess.

Oh, you won't be traveling alone, darling. I'll have just enough time on the train to weave the star spider sash for your gown. But we should leave now. There's no time to dawdle if you want the coronation to be perfect.

[gasp]

So, even though everything changed and you moved away from your friends, you didn't grow apart? And this is the Council of Friendship? That's what you're all doing here?

Duh! This time every moon.

[chuckles] What she means is this is how we've been rulin' together.

And how we've continued to face every problem and threat to Equestria over the years.

But mostly, it's how we keep in touch. No matter how busy life gets.

Sometimes friendships can be hard, and it takes work to maintain them. But without friends, things can be a lot harder.

I never thought about friendship being something to work at, and I don't mind work. I guess if they don't have to fade away, maybe making friends isn't the waste of time I thought. But I've been so focused on my studies, I wouldn't know where to start.

That's all right, because I know exactly where to send you.
