You're wrong about them. They're everything you say... but so much more.
I used to want to save the world. This beautiful place. But I knew so little then. It is a land of magic and wonder. Worth cherishing in every way. But the closer you get, the more you see the great darkness shimmering within. And mankind? Mankind is another story altogether. What one does when faced with the truth, is more difficult than you think. I learned this the hard way. A long long time ago. And now, I will never be the same.

I will fight – for those who cannot fight for themselves.
It's not about "deserve". It's about what you believe. And I believe in Love.
I used to want to save the world. To end war and bring peace to mankind; but then I glimpsed the darkness that lives within their light. I learnt that inside every one of them there will always be both. The choice each must make for themselves – something no hero will ever defeat. And now I know ... that only Love can truly save the world. So now I stay, I fight, and I give – for the world I know can be. This is my mission now. Forever.
How long until we reach the war?
The war? Which part? The Western Front in France is 400 miles long, from the Alps to the North Sea.
Where the fighting is the most intense, then. If you take me there, I'm sure I'll find Ares.
Ares, as in the... the god of war?
The god of war is our responsibility. Only an Amazon can defeat him. With this. [holds up the "Godkiller" sword] And once I do, the war will end.
Look, I, uh... I appreciate your spirit, but this war is... it's a great big mess. And, uh, there's not a whole lot you and I can do about that. I mean, we can get back to London and try to look for men who can--
I'm the man who can! And once I find and destroy Ares, the German armies will be freed from his influence, and they will be good men again, and the world will be better.
Great...
You'll see.
This is No Man's Land, Diana! It means no man can cross it, alright? This battalion has been here for nearly a year and they've barely gained an inch. Alright? Because on the other side there are a bunch of Germans pointing machine guns at every square inch of this place. This is not something you can cross. It's not possible.
So … what? … so we do nothing?!
No – we are doing something. We are! We just … we can't save everyone in this war. This is not what we came here to do.
No. But it is what I am going to do.
Is this what people do when there are no wars to fight?
Yeah... [stutters] This and other things.
What things?
Umm, they have breakfast. They love their breakfast. And, umm, they love to wake up and read the paper and go to work, they get married, make some babies, grow up together. I guess.
What is that like?
I have no idea.
I can't let you do this.
What I do is not up to you.
[She shoves him away from her and rushes after Ludendorff]
No! After everything I saw, it can't be! It cannot be! They were killing each other. Killing people they cannot see. Children. Children! No, it had to be him, it cannot be them.
Diana, people-- [stutters]
She was right. My mother was right. She said, "The world of men do not deserve you". They don't deserve our help.
It's... it's not about "deserve". Maybe-maybe we don't. But it's not about that, it's about what you believe. You don't think I get it after what I've seen out there? You don't think I wish I could tell you that it was one bad guy to blame? It's not! We're all to blame.
I'm not.
But maybe I am!
