William Stryker : I would.
Logan : What do you want, Stryker?
[Stryker shows Logan the front page of a newspaper with Bradley's picture on it; the title says, "Circus Freak Killed"]

[Logan stares at the paper]
William Stryker : Wade before that. I believe that someone is hunting down our old team.

Logan : I can take care of myself.
[gets into his truck]

William Stryker : Oh, Wade.
Wade Wilson : Dreams really do come true.
William Stryker : Just shut it! You're up next.
Wade Wilson : Thank you, sir. You look really nice today. It's the green. It brings out the seriousness in your eyes.
Logan : Oh, my God. Do you ever shut up, pal?
Wade Wilson : No. Not when I'm awake.

Wade Wilson : Okay. People are dead.
William Stryker : If you didn't have that mouth of yours, Wade, you'd be the perfect solider.

Logan : [holding Stryker in a chokehold to the wall] For six years I've been here, no one knew me. And then you show up, and the next day she's dead!
William Stryker : I tried to warn you.
Logan : Why didn't you tell me it was Victor?
William Stryker : I didn't know!
Logan : [slams him against the wall] Bullshit! Why?
William Stryker : I swear on my son's life, I didn't!
[Logan releases his grip on him]
William Stryker : Victor's appetite was becoming too public. I had to lock him up. He felt I betrayed him. He went AWOL. He said he was coming for all of us.
Logan : You didn't come to warn me, you came to save your own ass.
[walks off]
William Stryker : So what's your plan, Captain? You can't beat him, Logan, you know you can't!
Logan : I'm gonna go find him and kill him.
William Stryker : I can give you the tools to defeat him.
[Logan stops and turns to look at Stryker]
William Stryker : And we can still save the others.
Logan : You mean save yourself, right?
William Stryker : I promise you two things: You will suffer more pain than any other man can endure. But you will have your revenge.
Logan : I come with you, I'm coming for blood. No law, no code of conduct. You point me in the right direction, you get the hell out of my way.

William Stryker : [over the helicopter radio] Zero, is Logan dead?
Agent Zero : [shaken] I don't know. I'm down.
William Stryker : Zero, is he dead? Is Logan dead?
[Logan approaches the wreck and glares at Zero, who is trapped in the cockpit next to the dead pilot]
William Stryker : Zero, come *in*!
[Logan reaches over and takes Zero's headphones]
Logan : [speaking into the headphones] You tried to kill me.
William Stryker : Logan?
Logan : Where's Victor?
William Stryker : Come back to base. I'll explain everything. We'll take down Victor together.
Logan : Wrong answer. After I kill Victor, I'm coming for you.
William Stryker : [sits down nervously] Logan, listen to me. If you go down this road, you're not gonna like what you find.
Logan : You wanted the animal, Colonel. You got it.
[hangs up on Stryker and glares at Zero]
Logan : Those were good people back there. Innocent people.
[Zero chuckles weakly as Logan turns and walks away from the wreckage]
Agent Zero : It's funny how good, innocent people tend to die around you!
[Logan extends his Adamantium claws and strikes the ground, igniting a trail of petrol, destroying the wreckage and killing Zero]

William Stryker : We're going to make you indestructible - but first, we're gonna have to destroy you. You remember what we were looking for in Africa?
Logan : I remember.
William Stryker : Well, I found it. It helped us to create a metal compound so strong, that you'll be able to withstand virtually anything. It's called adamantium. I can't put Victor down myself, Logan. To kill him, you'll have to embrace the other side, become the animal.
Logan : Let's do this.
William Stryker : Oh, I almost forgot...
[hold up Logan's dog tags]
Logan : I want new ones.
William Stryker : What do you want them to say?
Logan : Wolverine.

William Stryker : Mutants. I don't hate them, I just know what they can do. You don't realize this, but we are at war. I took an oath: Protect this country. My name is William Stryker, and I am not a monster. I am simply a patriot.

William Stryker : You were sentenced for decapitating a senior officer. The warden tells me that your sentence was carried out by a firing squad at 1000 hours. How'd that go?
Logan : It tickled.
William Stryker : My name is Major William Stryker. You boys tired of running? Tired of denying your true nature? Tired of wars?
Victor Creed : Why do you care?
William Stryker : Oh, I care. I care because I know how valuable you are. I'm putting together a special team, with special privileges. So tell me, after defending this country for 150 years and 4 wars, how would you like to really serve your country?
William Stryker : Welcome to the war.

William Stryker : Fred!
Frederick J. Dukes : The tank?
William Stryker : The tank.
Frederick J. Dukes : Yeah, I got it!

William Stryker : You could never survive the adamantium bonding...
Victor Creed : Whatever you did to him, I can take it!
-
William Stryker : All the horrible things in your life... Your father, the wars, I can make all this go away. You can live knowing that the woman you loved was hunted down, or you can join me. I promise you will have your revenge.
