Quotes 

  • Peter Quill : Well, you may not be mortal, but me...

    Ego : No, Peter... death will remain a stranger to both of us, as long as the light burns within the planet.

    Peter Quill : I'm immortal?

    Ego : Mmm-hmm.

    Peter Quill : Really?

    Ego : Yes! As long as the light exists.

    Peter Quill : And, I could use the light to build cool things like, how you made this whole planet?

    Ego : Well, it might take you a few million years of practice before you get really good at it. But, yes!

    Peter Quill : What! This is... Well, get ready for a 800-foot statue of Pac-Man with Skeletor and Heather Locklear...

    Ego : You can do anything you want.

    Peter Quill : I'm gonna make some weird shit.

  • Ego : Listen to me! You are a god. If you kill me, you'll be just like everybody else!

    Peter Quill : What's so wrong with that?

    Ego : *No*!

  • Ego : I created what I imagined biological life to be like... down to the most minute detail.

    Drax : Did you make a penis?

    Peter Quill : Dude!

    Gamora : What is wrong with you?

    Drax : If he's a planet, how could he make a baby with your mother? He would smush her!

    Peter Quill : I don't need to hear how my parents...

    Drax : Why? My father would tell the story of impregnating my mother every winter solstice.

    Peter Quill : That's disgusting.

    Drax : It was beautiful. You earthers have hang-ups.

    Ego : Yes, Drax, I got a penis.

    Drax : Ha! Thank you!

    Ego : It's not half bad.

  • Peter Quill : You said you loved my mother.

    Ego : And that I did. My river lily who knew all the words to every song that came over the radio. I returned to Earth to see her three times. And I knew if I returned a fourth, well, I'd... I'd never leave. The Expansion... the reason for my very existence would be over. So, I did what I had to do. But... it broke my heart to put that tumor in her head.

    Peter Quill : What?

    Ego : Now, now, all right, I know that sounds bad...

    [Peter continuously shoots Ego with his Quad Blasters] 

    Ego : [reforming]  Who... in the *hell*... do you think you are?

    Peter Quill : *You killed my mother*!

    Ego : I tried *so hard* to find the form...

    The Form of David Hasselhoff : [changes form to David Hasselhoff]  ... that best *suited you*... and this is the thanks I get?

    Ego : [changes back]  You really need to *grow up*.

    [Ego pierces Quill with a beam of energy] 

    Ego : I wanted to do this together... but I suppose you'll have to learn by spending the next thousand years as a *battery*!

  • Gamora : You own a planet and can destroy two dozen spaceships without a suit. What are you exactly?

    Ego : I'm what's called a Celestial, sweetheart.

  • Ego : Soon, Peter, we will be all there is. So stop pissing me off!

  • Ego : I hired Yondu to pick you up after your mother passed away. But, instead of returning you, Yondu kept you. I have no clue as to why.

    Peter Quill : I'll tell ya why; I was a skinny little kid who could slip into places adults couldn't. Made it easier for thieving.

    Ego : Well, I've been trying to track you down ever since.

    Drax : I thought Yondu was your father.

    Peter Quill : What? You're trying to tell me that this whole time, you thought Yondu was my actual blood relative?

    Drax : You look exactly alike!

    Rocket : *One's blue!*

    Peter Quill : No, he's not my father! Yondu was the guy who abducted me, kicked the crap out of me so I could learn to fight, and kept me in terror by threatening to eat me.

    Ego : [shocked]  Eat you?

    Peter Quill : Yeah.

    Ego : Oh, that son of a bitch!

  • Peter Quill : Doesn't eternity get boring?

    Ego : Not if you have a purpose, Peter... which is why you're here.

  • Ego : I call it the Expansion. It is my purpose, and now it is yours as well.

    Peter Quill : It's beautiful.

    Ego : Over thousands of years I implanted thousands of extensions of myself on thousands of worlds. I need to fulfill life's one true purpose... To grow and spread, covering *all* that exists until everything is... me.

  • Ego : [singing to Looking Glass - Brandy You're a Fine Girl]  She works layin' whiskey down; She serves them whiskey and wine, what a good wife you would be...

  • Ego : I promise you... it's unlike any other place you've ever seen. And there... I can explain your very... special heritage. Finally get to be... the father I've always wanted to be... Excuse me. I've gotta take a whiz.

  • Ego : [Peter has 'Brandy' by Looking Glass playing on the walkman]  It's fortuitous that you're listening to this song.

    Peter Quill : You know...?

    Ego : 'Brandy' by Looking Glass. A favorite of your mom's. One of Earth's greatest musical compositions; perhaps its very greatest.

    Peter Quill : Yeah.

    Ego : You and I, Peter, we're the sailor in the song.

    [Begins speaking the lyrics as they play] 

    Ego : He came on a summer's day / Bringing gifts from far away - like the child I put in your mother, or the freedom you brought Gamora.

    [pause] 

    Ego : Brandy, you're a fine girl / What a good wife you would be / But my life, my love, my lady is the sea. The sea calls the sailor back. He loves the girl, but that's not his place.

  • Peter Quill : My mother told everyone my father was from the stars. She had brain cancer, so everyone thought she was delusional.

    Ego : Peter...

    Peter Quill : Listen, I'd love to believe all of this, I really would. But you left the most wonderful woman ever to die alone.

    Ego : I didn't want to leave your mother, Peter. If I don't return regularly return to my planet and the light within it, this form will wither and perish.

    Peter Quill : So why didn't you come back? Why did you send Yondu? A criminal, of all people, to come and fetch me?

    Ego : I loved your mother, Peter! I couldn't stand to set foot on an Earth where she wasn't living! You can't imagine what that's like!

    Peter Quill : I know exactly what that feels like! I had to watch her die!

    Ego : [pause]  Over the millions and millions of years of my existence, I've made many mistakes, Peter. But you're not one of them. Please give me the chance to be the father she would want me to be.

  • Ego : [holding Quill's Walkman as it plays 'Brandy']  'My life, my love, my lady is the sea.' Peter... this is The Sea.

    [crushes Walkman]
