Wong

That hurt, Emil! Want me to show you how it feels? [before knocking out Emil "Abomination" Blonsky in the underground fights in Macau]

Ying Li
[to her son]

Lead with your breath. Look into your heart, the light and the dark. To know yourself, you must face them both.

Ying Nan

You are a product of all who came before you, the legacy of your family. You are your mother. And whether you like it or not, you are also your father.

Xialing
[As the Dweller-in-Darkness and its minions descend upon Ta Lo]

If we're going to survive this, we have to work together!

Razor Fist

Do you really think I'm going to fall for that?

Ying Nan

Your weapons are useless against them!

Razor Fist

We don't need your help! We are the mighty Ten Rings! And—

Razor Fist
[a Soul Eater plucks Death Dealer from the ground and devours his soul; only Nan's dragonscale blade keeps Razor Fist from meeting the same fate] [understandably shaken]

W-w-we should work together.

Trevor
[meeting Trevor's strange companion]

You can see Morris?

Katy

Morris?

Trevor

Oho, Morris! They can see you! You're real! All this time I thought I was hallucinating him. Oh, this is fab news.

Katy

Where's his face?

Trevor
[Morris makes a sound like he's insulted]

He's a bit sensitive about that.

Katy
[Shang-Chi and Katy meet his estranged sister Xialing]

You started an underground fight ring in Macau when you were sixteen years old?

Xialing

If my dad won't let me into his empire, I'm gonna build my own.

Wenwu
[Shang-Chi confronts Wenwu]

Are you planning to stop me all by yourself?

Shang-Chi

I'm not afraid of you.

Wenwu
[Wenwu smiles and gently strokes the back of Shang-Chi's head]

Yes, you are.

Wenwu
[Wenwu strikes Shang-Chi, sending him backward before striding forward confidently]

You've spent your entire life afraid.

Wenwu
[Wenwu continues to strike Shang-Chi]

You were there when they came for her, and you did nothing. You stood at a window and watched her die!

Trevor Slattery
[Shang-Chi, Xialing, and Katy meet Trevor Slattery]

Well, some time ago, I was offered the role of a terrorist. I know, facile, trite, I couldn't agree more. But times were lean, you know what I mean? Anyway, the producer told me he worked for the BBC. But, ironic twist, it turns out he, in fact, was a terrorist. And I wasn't playing a character at all, but what I now recognize to be a rather unflattering portrait of your father. We all got our just desserts. The producer got blown up by Iron Man, and I served time in federal prison, which turned out to be the best thing for me. I got clean, I rediscovered my passion.

Shang-Chi

And then my dad broke you out…

Trevor

Exactly!

Shang-Chi

…to kill you?

Trevor

Exactly!

Guang Bo
[Wenwu and the Ten Rings have entered Ta Lo, to a hostile response]

The sins of your past would have destroyed this place!

Wenwu

Be careful how you speak to me, young man. I've lived ten of your lifetimes.

Katy Chen
[about following Shang onto the scaffolding]

Oh, HELL no! Screw you, I'm not doing this!

Katy Chen
[about her tactic of singing "Hotel California" at her enemies]

It's the art of confusion. Works great on stupid people.

Xu Shang-Chi
[fighting Wenwu]

She was gone, and we needed you. But you chose those damn Rings over us! You trained your son to be a killer! Is this what you wanted?! Even if you could bring her back, what makes you think she'd want anything to do with you?

Xu Wenwu / The Mandarin

A terrorist in America needed a boogeyman to bring your country to its knees. So, he appropriated Ten Rings, my Ten Rings, but because he didn't know my actual name, he invented a new one. Do you know what name he chose? The Mandarin. He gave his figurehead the name of a chicken dish. And it worked! America was terrified… of an orange!

Xu Xialing

I wasn't allowed to train with the boys. But I watched everything they did and taught myself to do it better.

Katy Chen

Look at that girl. She’s writing a research paper on a bus. That is exactly the daughter my mom wishes came out of her vagina.
