Deidara quotes from Naruto: Shippūden

Deidara

An artist must always seek ever greater stimulation, lest his senses go dull on him, my man. Rumor is the Nine Tails Jinchuriki is very powerful. A canvas truly worthy of my artistry.

What? Those pyrotechnics of yours, art? Art is a work of beauty, captured and left for posterity. Art is eternal beauty.

Deidara

Eternal beauty? Are you kidding me? Look don't get me wrong. As a fellow artist I respect your point of view. But true ar this fleeting. A flash of beauty burning brightly and then vanishing in a heartbeat.

Dear dear, you must have had a close shave huh Deidara. But you're in one piece. Oops, my mistake.

Deidara

Tobi, even the Buddha loses patience when insulted a third time. One more word and there'll be no doubt about the cause of your death.

You're just gonna bomb me to death right?

That was the third one.

Deidara

[locks his legs around Tobi's neck in a chokehold] Death by suffocation, hmm!

[Points out piggybank inside dango store] That's exactly like your work, isn't it? Could it be that your art style is a ripoff?

Deidara

Tobi... you're dead! [attacks him]

Deidara

[after defeating the Three-Tailed Beast] If it weren't for my artistry you would still be thrashing around underwater. Since you're an Akatsuki now, stop jabbering so much and learn how to be cool. That's the secret. You've got no cool, you've got no art. You see, that's what art is. It's passionate emotions recollected in cool tranquility.

Ha, talk about jabbering. [laughs as Deidara begins to attack him with explosives] Oh I was kidding!

Deidara

I take commissions to make explosions using my art, hmm.

Your art?

Deidara

[holds up a clay spider] Yeah look. Such refined lines matched with a form that pursues two dimensional depth formulae. This is true art. But my art goes far beyond this as well. My pieces are versatile. While they hold shape, they're merely objects, but they can also explode. And when it does explode, it makes its essence more sublime, and it finally comes fully into its own. I feel that true art only lives in that flash of sublimation. True art is an explosion!

Disgusting.

Kisame

Is he finished?

Itachi

Who knows?

Deidara

[as he speaks, Sasuke just stares with his Sharingan] You're about to be killed by my art. That is what annoys me the most about you and your brother! You think you're just so cool! Those eyes, those overconfident eyes make me sick! Your eyes, always judging me for my art! I'll never forgive them for that! You have absolutely no respect for my art! I can tell that you don't! I can never forgive those eyes that just ignore my art!

Sasuke

I couldn't care less about all that. I just want you to tell me where I can find Itachi. [Sasuke's Sharingan fades and he still stares]

Deidara

So you've retracted your Sharingan. Do you really take me that lightly? [Deidara rips his shirt off revealing a mouth on his chest that he feeds explosive clay] This is my ultimate art. This time I'm going to detonate myself!

Sasuke

He's insane!

Deidara

[last words] In death I shall become art itself! No one's seen an explosion like this, one that will leave behind a scar on the very earth itself. And then I'll receive more admiration for my art than anyone has ever seen before! Sorry, Tobi. But while I will be admired you will most definitely be dead! This explosion will cover 10 kilometers! You can't run away from this one, hmm! Tremble, be afraid, recoil in despair, cower in awe, and cry your heart out! Because my art... IS AN EXPLOSION!
