More lines from Optimus Prime
5 quotes Optimus Prime Optimus Prime Humans have asked us to play by their rules. Well...the rules have just changed.
Optimus Prime [To the Dinobots]
Legendary warriors, the powers that created us now want us all extinguished. We must join forces, or else forever be their slaves. So today you stand with us…or you stand against me.
Optimus Prime Honor to the end.
Optimus Prime [Closing line]
There are mysteries to the universe we were never meant to solve. But who we are and why we are here are not among them. Those answers we carry inside. I am Optimus Prime, and this message is to my creators: Leave planet Earth alone. ‘Cause I’m coming…for you.

I warn you, Mr. Attinger of Earth, an alliance is a contract, and contracts, like humans, expire.
On this planet, we have a saying. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend"
I also have a saying. I. Don’t. Care.
Yeah but what's happens if you had feelings for someone?
Took a hell of a hit, you know. The missile just missed your power source.
Optimus We call it a Spark. It contains our life force and our memories.
Yeah, we call it a soul.
Optimus Cade. Why are you willing to help me?
I guess maybe because you trust me to.
Human beings, bunch of backstabbing’ weasels.
Hound, find your inner compass. Loyalty is but a flower in the winds of fear and temptation.
What the hell are you saying?
It’s a haiku
Cut the crap before I drop a grenade down your throat!
[slaps the both of ya] alright you'll two cut it out!
Optimus Autobots, I have sworn to never kill humans.
Big mistake.
Optimus But when I find out who’s behind this…he’s going to die.
Hoo-ah!
Optimus You have no soul!
Galvatron That is why I have no fear!
When you said you were done fighting for humans, you didn’t mean that, did you?
Optimus How many more of my kind must be sacrificed to atone for your mistakes?
Well, what do you think being human means? That’s what we do. We make mistakes. And sometimes out of those mistakes come the most amazing things. When I fixed you, it was for a reward. That was it. That was why. For money. And it was me making a mistake. Without it, you wouldn’t be here. So even if you got no faith in us, I’m asking you to do what I do. I’m asking you to look at all the junk and see the treasure. You gotta have faith, Prime, in who we can be.
Optimus They’re in trouble.
Nah! This isn’t our fight! I’m done being an underdog. Underdogs suck! I say they get what they deserve. What’s the play, Prime?
Optimus It’s time for reinforcements. [Enters the ship’s armory and approaches a sword] Recognize one of your Knights.
Optimus [Unsheathes the sword and then uses it to free Grimlock, who growls] [In Cybertronian]
The legend exists.
Optimus [After taming and mounting on Grimlock]
Autobots, we’re going to prove who we are and why we’re here!
Ah, you just want to die for the guy. That’s leadership. Or brainwashing, or something.
No. That’s Optimus Prime!
Optimus [The other Dinobots transform to their beast forms.]
Autobots, we charge together! Now roll out!
Optimus Cade, get out of here! This is my fight!
It’s my fight, and you’re all gonna die!
Optimus There remains a price on my head. I endanger you all if I stay. I shall take it where it can never be found.
Will we ever see you again?
Optimus Cade Yeager, I do not know. But whenever you look to the stars, think of one of them… as my soul. [To the Autobots] Defend this family, Autobots, as they have you. Defend. All they can be.
