Jack quotes from Samurai Jack

Looking for a seat?

Yup... yours. I'm gonna make a lotta money cashin' in on your hide.

I hear that often... but only from poor men.

Hmmm! Well, I've got bills 'ta pay, an' I've done already addressed the envelopes.

I hope you have yet to stamp the postage on your parcels-

[sucker-punching Jack] Consider 'em stamped.

Aku

[shocked the mystical sword didn't kill Jack like how he intended] HOW?! HOW?!

Even I had forgotten that the sword was forged in purity and strength. It can only be used for good. In the hands of evil, it can never harm an innocent. And so, Aku, it cannot harm me but it can harm you.

They call me Jack. The creatures of this mystical land have guided me here. Is this the passage through time that I have quested for?

Yep.

I humbly request your permission to use this great power. [the Guardian laughs then stops]

Nope.

Guardian, by what right do you deny me?

For countless eons, I have guarded this magical power of time travel. All have been denied, from the mightiest of giants to the tiniest of warriors. You see, samurai, only one man has been prophesied to defeat me. And that man is the only man who can use this time passage. And you, my man, ain't that man. [Jack takes a deep breath and sigh]

I have hoped that just once I would not have to battle for my goal because it is noble and just. But I see that this is impossible. I must use the power of this time passage, and so, I will defeat you.

Ain't gonna happen.

We shall see. [draws his sword]

Ahhh, you goin' all old school on me, huh? Well, I got me one o' those. [draws sword]

Clever how you people use this beast for travel.

We do not use him. It his generocity that allows us to cross this lake. Only he can cross it.

I meant no disrespect.

He has forever lived in this lake. Seen many things, all knowing and very wise.

Never before have I faced an opponent with such skill.

I told you, man, it ain't gonna happen. Now why don't you leave before you really get hurt.

Never! I must return to the past!

Who dare to blow my door horn?

I am called Jack. I am a traveler.

Hm. Never heard of you. I'm a hermit, after all.

Speak, my son.

Grandmaster, I am the pupil of Master Chu.

I am Tan Zang. I was also a pupil of Master Chu, with you, at the temple.

How can this be?

I remember the day that you arrived at our temple. I was but a boy then. An emperor's son had come to learn our ways. You were training for your eventual battle with the ultimate evil. Eventually, Aku came for us and the temple was destroyed. But the survivors and I rebuilt the temple in secret. Over time, I became the grandmaster. The years passed and my chi grew more powerful. I became one with nature and received energy and nourishment from the earth itself. I have attained the highest levels of awareness and wisdom.

Brother, why did you come back?

You were prepared for sacrifice. I was not.

But... with the portal closed... you will have to find another way home.

I am getting used to that.

You must give me the diamond!

Thief

I can't!

You must!

Thief

I can't!

You must!

Thief

I can't!

You must!

Thief

I can't!

Thief

Jack... I'm sorry.

NO!

Thief

Hey! Jack!

Thief

You're welcome.

Didn't you hear who I am?

I believe everyone heard who you are.

He who runs with aggression walks without dignity.

Now I see your tactics - you gonna to bore me to death.

The Emperor

[vision] Be strong, my son. You are gravely ill.

Aku's very essence is creeping through your veins, possessing your body, poisoning your mind. It means to devour your spirit.

Please... help me... I beg you...

We are doing what we can to stave the illness of the flesh, but we can only slow the sickness. You have been infected by pure evil which can only be purged by the light of good. The good within you.

I... I... I cannot. You must... help me...

I am sorry. This is a sickness only you can truly cure.

[weakly] No... No... You must. You... [his body transforms into Aku again] You... [his voice becomes Aku's voice again] You worthless, wrinkled grub! I'll have you for dinner, you worm! I'll eat every last monk in this hole. I'll devour you all just as l have consumed the samurai! [cackles as the Aku infection completely takes over Jack's body]

[offscreen] Cannot fight it. Not alone. Cannot do it alone. [we see a younger version of Jack crying]

[offscreen; vision] You are not alone, my son. We are always with you here.

The Emperor

[vision] Here, in your heart...the place we will make our stand against this evil.

But I was not there for you.

The Emperor

[vision] Nonsense! Aku's victories are not your failures. The struggle against Aku is arduous, and none have fought more bravely than you, my son.

[vision] You have won many victories. Rekindling hope in the hearts of those you have protected. Each sends their blessing.

The Emperor

[vision] Each blessing a stone to fortify this land. Your castle is strong, my son.

[vision] Your allies are many.

The Emperor

[vision] Wield what lies within and reclaim what is yours. Break the siege of darkness.

Master Ning, how can you forgive one who has raised his sword against you and defiled your sanctuary so?

Although the Pool of Convergence is destroyed, the nexus still exists. In time, we will reconstruct the gateway. As for you, had you not defeated the demon within, it surely would have destroyed us all. We owe you our lives. My son, all debts are paid.

All but one.

The Scotsman

Is she a fast ship?

She's fast enough for you, Scotsman. Where ya headed?

The Scotsman

The Great Unknown.

Ooooooooooh...

Arr, that's the real trick, isn't it? And it's gonna cost ya. Ten thousand, in advance.

Like ten thousand? Dude, we could like almost buy our own ship for that. Dude, I know this guy...

Yeah... but who's gonna sail it, kid? You?

Well, like, yeah, I could. I worked on a boat before.
