In the meantime, I wanted to share a list of some of the best quotes from the film. Check out these 60+ of the best Rebel Moon Part One: A Child of Fire movie quotes.
On the Motherworld, one thousand kings ruled unchallenged in succession. But in the royal bloodline’s line for power, they consumed everything upon their planet.
The Realm marched its armies into the vastness of space, conquering everything in its path.
The glory of the Motherworld seemed without end until the treachery of an assassin’s blade struck down the King and Queen, severing the royal bloodline forever.
It’s been awhile since we’ve had fresh meat. Forgot how good it was.
The two years I’ve spent here have given me happiness that I don’t deserve.
To truly love and be loved, I don’t know if I’m capable of either.
I was taught that love is weakness, and I don’t know how that will ever change.
What do you think that they want? Everything.
That ship does not represent prosperity. Its purpose is to destroy, to subjugate, to enslave.
We’ve carved out a simple life here. And we take pride in the love of our community and the hard work it takes to survive here.
If I may offer you some advice when dealing with the subordinates who need to be kept in place, I find people can lose sight of the stakes and sometimes need a gentle reminder of just how those with power deal with those without.
Well, it’s simple. I want everything.
What in the name of the old gods are you looking at?
I fear we have lost some measure of our honor since that betrayal. I’m afraid our compassion, our kindness, our very joy died with that young girl. I think it lives in you.
I’m gonna tie you to a post and make you watch every day while she turns from a farm girl to a wh*re.
A general and an army. We might stand a chance.
I fought for the King on distant worlds under the banner of a people who murdered my entire family and destroyed my world. They trained me, broken me, and rebuilt me in their image.
I guaranteee by morning, you’re going to be begging me for more.
Kill her.
No money? Well, I do love to gamble.
Drop your leads. She’ll tear you apart.
You and I, we are alike. We’ve been hurt. Betrayed. We both know fear. Yet, the biggest fear we both face is the fear of ourselves.
Let’s show them we’re not afraid. Let’s show them we’re more than the shackles that bind us.
Attagirl.
I’m clearly distressed; that’s true. But I’m not stupid. I know why you’re here; you want the child. Yes, I do. You can’t have this one. This one is mine.
Why should I care about a mother’s pain when no one cares about my pain?
I deserve justice. I understand, but this is not the way. There is a difference between justice and revenge.
Do not celebrate this. There is no honor in this. This could easily be any of you lying here in the gutter of some forgotten world in the name of revenge. You will do well to remember that.
Kindness is a virtue worth dying for.
When she becomes queen, I believe she’ll bring a compassion I’ve lost after all these hard years at war. It will be the dawn of something better. I think your friendship makes her safer.
I believed in her. In her kindness. I believed in her ability to save us.
I don’t think you’re meant to die here.
My forces against the King’s Gaze? That’s suicide.
This man is not a revolutionary. He’s a simple farmer. But commerce or not, his people toiled with their bare hands to grow the grain that fed you. All of you!
I will not allow another world to fall in our name. And what about those you command? Their lives are theirs.
Is that not what we stand for?
Under free will, who among you is willing to die for what we believe rather than hide behind it?
Guilt. It’s a powerful thing. Aye, guilt. The underbelly of honor. I think I might’ve had that once, honor.
Honor I understand, charity I do not.
I’ll be happy to leave this life behind.
Now is not the time to be a hero.
Never set food on the wrong side of history.
What happened to honor? What did happen to it?
I know you’re in love with her.
They gave their lives for us. They believed in their cause. What better thing to die for? And I should have died with them.
Honor them with everything you can for now. Carry them.
This would’ve been a beautiful place to die. Yes, it would.
I fear the head most endangered here is yours.
If you cannot bring her to me, then the one whose public execution will send shivers down the spines of the senators and whose screams will echo down its marbled halls will be yours.
