Our people once were warriors. But unlike you, Jake, they were people with mana, pride; people with spirit. If my spirit can survive living with you for eighteen years, then I can survive anything.
Once Were Warriors quotes
Page 1 of 2Well **** off then! You'll get nothing from me!
You have nothing I want, Jake.
Te Tupaea
If you want to smash things, boy, you start with me! You think you're man enough to hold a taiaha, boy?
Boogie I hate this **** place!
Te Tupaea
You're not supposed to like it!
Boogie Let me go, you black bastard!
Te Tupaea
We are the same colour, boy! The British used to think the bayonet was the most lethal of all hand-to-hand combat weapons, till they came across our warriors, who fought with a taiaha. You think your fist is your weapon? When I have taught you, your mind will be. You'll carry your taiaha inside you.
[about Boogie]
He's gone! He's gone to welfare! And you slept through the whole bloody thing.
Is that all? Is that what all this slamming of **** doors, crying and carrying on is about?
You raped a 13 year old girl and sat here drinking with her father while the rest of us buried her!
Bully You should learn to control your Missus.
Sneaking around the house laying your filthy **** hands on my baby!
Huata Heke
Where are we going mum?
We're going home.
[they drive off in the car]
Oh **** all that warrior shit! You'll be back, you'll **** see! You need me! You **** want me! You'll be back! **** you, Beth! Go on, go!
I'll kill you first!
Well go on, do it! You're still a slave Jake; to your fists, to the drink; to yourself. Well, go on; kill the bloody lot of us!
[Jake lets out a savage scream as he smashes the beer bottle against the wall, sparing Beth]
You're still a bloody attractive woman, you know.
What? After you take after me with your fists? Make me sick.
[reading about Grace's rape in her diary, clearly shocked]
Uncle Bully... [begins trembling with insane rage] UNCLE ****IN' BULLY!!!
After thoroughly beating up a bar patron
Barman! 6 milkshakes, easy on the ice-cream.
Cook the man some ****in' eggs!
I bought seafood today - bloody everything! Just wanted to put a smile on her face. Think she'd let me? Not a chance. All I said was that I got laid off. Anybody would've thought I'd told her my prick had dropped off!
I was right. Too much weights, not enough speedwork. Useless prick.
Uncle Bully...UNCLE **** BULLY!
