Ha ha! We killed her!
You forget she is a god. It will take more than that.
She certainly did some damage.
We'll move out now.
But what about the men she pushed over the cliff?
They're dead. Let's get the living home.

Princess Mononoke quotes
Page 4 of 5What do you plan to do? What exactly are you here for?
To see with eyes unclouded by hate.
'Eyes unclouded'? [laughs girlishly] That explains it. Come. I'll show you all my secrets.
Leper
My Lady, Gosa has something to say.
Gosa
Forgive me, my Lady, but you must not make light of the boy's strength. Young man, like you I know what rage feels like, and grief and helplessness. But you must not take your revenge on Lady Eboshi. She's the only one who saw us as human beings. We are lepers. The world hates and fears us, but she, she took us in, and washed our rotting flesh and bandaged us. [coughing]
Leper
Gosa...
Gosa
Life is suffering. It is hard. The world is cursed but still you find reasons to keep living. [coughing] I'm sorry... I'm making no sense.
"Why chop the trees down?"
"To make them angry, which makes them stupid."
"Mother, I have to go. Lord Okoto is blind; I must be his eyes. Do you understand?"
"Do as you must. You know, that boy wanted to share his life with you."
"I hate him! [buries her face into Moro's fur] I hate all humans!"
Even if all the trees grow back, it won't be his forest anymore. The Forest Spirit is dead.
Never. He is life itself. He isn't dead, San. He is here with us now, telling us, it's time for both of us to live.
And you, Gonza, always struttin' around and throwing your weight about AFTER the danger's over! You never do a lick of work around here!
"Give me back my daughter, demon!"
[After having rescued San, the wounded Ashitaka falls off his elk, and the two wolves come back to eat him, but San stops them]
Why did you stop me from killing her? Tell me, while you are still alive.
I'm not afraid to die. I'd do anything to get you humans out of my forest.
And I'm not afraid of you! I should kill you for saving her!
[She takes Ashitaka's sword and puts the tip of the blade inches from his throat]
That woman is evil, and there's no one who can stop me from killing her!
That's enough! I'm not listening to you anymore! [She touches the tip of the sword to Ashitaka's throat]
Wolf
[San steps back, startled by what he has just said]
What is it, San? Want me to crunch his face off?
Gate Guard
[Ashitaka arrives at Iron Town's main gate, carrying an unconscious San. A gate guard holds out his hand to stop him.]
Sir, I can't let you pass. The gate's been ordered shut. It can't be opened.
Rifle Guard 1
[Ashitaka walks past him. Two guards with rifles move to bar his path.]
Turn back, please.
Rifle Guard 2
We're grateful to you for bringing those men back to us. We don't want to hurt you.
Rifle Guard 1
Please!
I walked in through this gate this morning. Now I'm going to leave the same way.
Rifle Guard 1
[Ashitaka begins to try and open the gate]
Don't be a fool. It takes ten men to open this gate.
[Slowly, but surely, Ashitaka pushes the gate open with his cursed arm]
[Eboshi fires at the Shishigami. However, the gunshot seems to do almost nothing.]
But that should have killed it!
He's a god, you fool. It'll take more than one shot.
[In the midst of Lady Eboshi and San fighting, Ashitaka makes his way through the crowd. He then puts himself between the two, holding them apart]
What do you think you're doing, boy?
Stay your hand. The girl's life is now mine.
[San viciously bites Ashitaka's arm, but he feels no pain from her bite] [mockingly]
I'm sure she'll make a lovely wife for you.
There's a demon inside of you. It's inside both of you.
[San's bite reveals the curse, causing her to recoil in horror and the mob around them to gasp in shock]
Look, everyone! This is what hatred looks like! This is what it does when it catches hold of you! It's eating me alive, and very soon now it will kill me! Fear and anger only make it grow faster!
[annoyed]
I'm getting a little bored of this curse of yours, Ashitaka. Let me just cut the damn thing OFF!
[Eboshi tries to cut off Ashitaka's arm, but he dodges her and hits her hard in the stomach with the handle of his sword, knocking her unconscious. He then does the same thing to San knocking her unconscious and breaking up the fight]
