Jake Sully [first lines]
When I was lying there in the VA hospital, with a big hole blown through the middle of my life, I started having these dreams of flying. I was free. Sooner or later, though, you always have to wake up.

The Sky-People have sent us a message, that they can take whatever they want and no one can stop them. Well, we will send them a message. You ride out as fast as the wind can carry you. You tell the other clans to come. You tell them Toruk Makto calls to themǃ You fly now, with me, my brothers, sistersǃ And we will show the Sky-People that they cannot take whatever they wantǃ And that this...THIS IS OUR LANDǃ

12 quotes Jake Sully Jake Sully There's no such thing as an ex-Marine. You may be out, but you never lose the attitude. I told myself I could pass any test a man can pass.
Jake Sully This is how it's done. When people are sitting on stuff that you want, you make 'em your enemy. Then you justify taking it.
Jake Sully I was a warrior who dreamed he could bring peace. Sooner or later, though, you always have to wake up.
Jake Sully Sometimes your whole life boils down to one insane move.
Jake Sully [To Quaritch]
Are you out of your goddamn mind?!
Jake Sully [While watching the RDA fleet fire incendiary missiles at Hometree]
NO!!!
Jake Sully [explaining his attempt to tame the legendary Toruk]
Way I had it figured, Toruk is the baddest cat in the sky. Nothing attacks him. So why would he ever look up? But that was just a theory.
Jake Sully [closing narration]
Well, uh, I guess this is my last video log. Because whatever happens tonight, either way, I'm not going to be coming back to this place. Well, I guess I better go. I don't wanna be late for my own party. Yeah, it's my birthday, after all. This is Jake Sully signing off.
Jake Sully [in cool & understanding voice]
You don't choose your Avatar... your Avatar chooses you.
Jake Sully [after his Ikran shouts]
SHUT UP AND FLY STRAIGHT!
Jake Sully What the hell are you doin', Jake?

[upon meeting Jake]
Yeah, yeah. I know who you are, and I don't need you. I need your brother. You know, the Ph.D. who trained for three years for this mission.
Jake Sully He's dead. I know it's a big inconvenience for everyone.
How much lab training have you had?
Jake Sully I dissected a frog once.
[to Max]
Ya see? Ya see? I mean, they're just pissing on us without even the courtesy of calling it rain!
Jake Sully [As sacred seeds gather around him, and land on him]
What are they?
Seeds of the sacred tree – very pure spirits.
Mo'at Why did you come to us?
Jake Sully I came to learn.
Mo'at We have tried to teach other Sky People. It is hard to fill a cup which is already full.
Jake Sully My cup's empty. Trust me, just ask Dr. Augustine. I'm no scientist.
Mo'at What are you?
Jake Sully I was a Marine. A, uh... A warrior of the "Jarhead" clan.
Now you choose your Ikran. This you must feel inside. If he also chooses you, move quick, like I showed. You will have one chance, Jake.
Jake Sully How will I know if he chooses me?
He will try to kill you.
Jake Sully [after a brief pause]
Outstanding...
You are Omatikaya now. You may make your bow from the wood of Hometree. And you may choose a woman. We have many fine women. Ninat is the best singer.
Jake Sully But I don't want Ninat.
Peyral is a good hunter.
Jake Sully Yes, she is a good hunter. But I've already chosen. But this woman must also choose me.
