Magneto quotes from X-Men: The Animated Series

Magneto

When I was a child, my people talked while others prepared for war! They used reason when others used tanks, and they were destroyed for their troubles. I won't stand by and watch it happen again, I WON'T!

Jean Grey

How much do you love Charles Xavier?

Magneto

How dare you ask me such a question? He was my only equal. I owe him my life!

Jean Grey

What would you do if you knew you were the only one on Earth who could save his life?

Magneto

Do not play games with me!

Jean Grey

Listen to me. A telepathic message to Lilandra is Xavier's only hope. You may be able to supercharge his mind just like you did mine. His brainwaves are electromagnetic.

Magneto

You lie to torture me. My legions await my command, pledging body and soul to me. With a single word I can remake the world. I cannot leave!

Cyclops

You know what you should do.

Magneto

Why NOW? My greatest enemy, and perhaps my only friend... but I have waited all my life for this moment!

Cyclops

Wouldn't he do it for you?

Professor X

Hello, Magnus. Surely you have more pressing business than nursing an old friend.

Magneto

Nothing more important.

Professor X

Thank you. It seems I have quite an audience. Thank you all. I'm grateful to have the chance, to say goodbye.
