StarCraft: Brood War (1998 Video Game)

Glynnis Talken: Sarah Kerrigan

Quotes 

• Jim Raynor : Fenix! No!

  Kerrigan : What are you worried about, Jim? He died the way all Protoss hope to: in combat.

  Jim Raynor : He died because you betrayed him. How many more noble souls do you need to consume before you're satisfied? How many more innocent people have to die before you realize what you've become?

  Kerrigan : You don't even know what you're talking about, Jim!

  Jim Raynor : Don't I? I'll see you dead for this, Kerrigan! For Fenix, and all the others who got caught between you and your mad quest for power!

  Kerrigan : Tough talk, Jimmy, but I don't think you have what it takes to be a killer.

  Jim Raynor : It may not be tomorow, darlin', it may not even happen with an army at my back. But rest assured; I'm the man who's gonna kill you one day. I'll be seeing you.

• Fenix : This is a betrayal most foul, Kerrigan. We were fools to have gone along with this charade!

  Kerrigan : You're right, Fenix. I used you to get the job done, and you played along just like I knew you would. You Protoss are all so headstrong and predictable. You are your own worst enemies.

  Fenix : That's ironic, I can remember Tassadar teaching you a very similar lesson on Char.

  Kerrigan : I took that lesson to heart, Praetor. Now, are you prepeared to die a second time?

  Fenix : The Khala awaits me, Kerrigan. And although I am prepeared to face my destiny, you will not find me easy prey!

  Kerrigan : Then that shall be your epitaph.

• Zeratul : Damn you, Kerrigan, for what I must do!

  [he frees Raszagal] 

  Raszagal, Protoss Matriarch : Thank you, Zeratul... You have freed me from her vile control at last. You have always served me with honor... Thus I must ask you... to watch over my tribe... Into your hands I give the future.

  [Zeratul kills her] 

  Kerrigan : I can hardly believe this! You've killed your own Matriarch!

  Zeratul : Better that I killed her, than let her live as your slave, Kerrigan.

  Kerrigan : Well, I have misjudged you, warrior. You are worthy, indeed. You are free to go.

  Zeratul : What?

  Kerrigan : I said, you are free to go. I've already taken your honor. I'll let you live, because I know that from now on; your every waking moment will be torture. You'll never be able to forgive yourself for what I've forced you to do. And that, Zeratul, is a better revenge than I could have ever dreamed of.

  Zeratul : You will regret this decision, Kerrigan. We shall meet again.

• Kerrigan : I'm glad to see that you all are as violent as ever.

• Kerrigan : Well done, mighty Protoss. I'm glad to see you are all as violent as ever.

  Zeratul : Kerrigan! What mockery is this?

  Kerrigan : Relax, warriors. Despite what you may think, I haven't come here to fight you.

  Aldaris : Hah! This is laughable! Do you truly expect us to believe that your intentions here are honourable? That these Zerg here are not under your sway?

  Kerrigan : Look, the Cerebrates you killed were my enemies as well. If you let me explain, I'm sure you'll understand that...

  Zeratul : You are the enemy of all who live, Kerrigan. What makes you think we would have anything to do with you?

  Kerrigan : Because Zeratul, I bring news of an event that threatens us all. If you take me back to your citadel, I'll tell you everything I know.

  Raszagal, Protoss Matriarch : Very well, Kerrigan. We shall hear what you have to say. But be warned - we will not suffer your treachery here.

• [on the regenerating Overmind] 

  Kerrigan : I can guarantee you that should it awaken, it'll take full control of me just like it did before. I don't want that to happen, and I'm pretty sure you don't want it to happen either.

• Zeratul : You have done well, Kerrigan. There is more to you than it seems. Perhaps I have misjudged you.

  Kerrigan : Given our past history, I can't say I blame you.

• Zeratul : Our sensors indicate a massive, fluctuating energy signature at its location. I am, however, unable to identify the signature's source.

  Kerrigan : That should be obvious, gentlemen - the source is the Overmind itself.

• Kerrigan : Clean, simple, devious. I like it.

• Kerrigan : You know, Admiral, I think I'll just massacre your remaining troops and watch you die in agony. How would that be?

  Admiral Gerard DuGalle : You vastly underestimate me, my dear.

  Kerrigan : I don't think so, Admiral. You see, at this point, I'm pretty much the Queen Bitch of the Universe. And not all of your little soldiers or space ships will stand in my way again.

• [Kerrigan has betrayed Mengsk by killing Duke and his forces] 

  Arcturus Mengsk : Kerrigan, you murdering bitch! We had a deal.

  Kerrigan : Oh, come on, Arcturus. Did you really think that I would allow you to come into power again? You practically fed me to Zerg on Tarsonis, you're directly responsible for the hell I've been through. Did you honestly think that I would let you get away with that?

  Arcturus Mengsk : But you said revenge was secondary to defeating the UED!

  Kerrigan : I lied. I Liberated this planet because it was the UED's primary staging point, not because I was under any obligation to you. I used you to destroy the Psi Disrupter and now that I've got my broods back, you're no longer necessary for my plans. I think I'll leave you here, Arcturus, among the ashes of your precious Dominion. I want you to live to see me rise to power and I want you to always remember, in your most private moments, that it was you who let me loose in the first place

• Kerrigan : [as the Protoss Alliance, the Sons of Korhal and the UED have failed to stop the Swarm, Kerrigan stands in ascension over her defeated enemies]  Once again I stand atop the broken bodies of my enemies... Victorious but not unscarred. The Earth-borne Directorate has been destroyed. And the Overmind lies dead and trampled beneath the ashes of Char. As for my unlikely allies, I think that I shall allow them a reprieve. For in time I will seek to test their resolve, and their strengths. - They will all be mine in the end, for I am the Queen of Blades. None shall ever dispute my rule again.

• Admiral Gerard DuGalle : [after the player defeats the UED in the game's final level]  Kerrigan, I am prepared to offer terms of surrender. It is my wish that you allow my men to live...

  Kerrigan : You're not in a position to offer me anything, Admiral. And I don't take prisoners. I'll tell you what... Turn your remaining ships around and start heading back towards the Earth. I'll let you have a head start, before I send the Swarms after you. It'll be interesting sport to see how far you get before you die.
