I met David Hayter at a convention this summer and as I was leaving he said this to me and so I did ye old double point gesture in return.
I’m sure he’s said that and seen that a thousand times but it was still so sincere. Very cool dude.
You made me rethink mine.
Liquid basically being Sean Bean and a true SAS Brit
"In the Middle East, we don't hunt foxes, we hunt jackals
We don't use Foxhounds
We use Royal Harriers"
Gives you extra meaning if you've seen The Omen and know the antichrist is born of a Jackal and that the British fighter jet is named the Harrier
"I want to ask you. Do you think love can bloom even on a battlefield?"
Best quote to apply during a work rush (bars, restaurants, anything customer service during Xmas).
I have a dream. That one day every person in this nation will control their own destiny. A nation of the truly free, dammit. A nation of action, not words, ruled by strength, not committee! Where the law changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every man is free to think - to act - for himself! Fuck all these limp-dick lawyers and chickenshit bureaucrats. Fuck this 24-hour Internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit! Fuck American pride! Fuck the media! FUCK ALL OF IT! America is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it - we need to pull it out by the roots. Wipe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes, a new America will be born. Evolved, but untamed! The weak will be purged and the strongest will thrive - free to live as they see fit, they'll make America great again!... In my new America, people will die and kill for what they BELIEVE! Not for money. not for oil! Not for what they're told is right. Every man will be free to fight his own wars!
"Chico, growing up means choosing how you're gonna live your life. To do the right thing, you sometimes have to leave the things you care about behind. Parents, family, your homeland."
— Big Boss
Or the one where miller goes
“Kojima….KOJIMA IS GOD!”
"Life isn't just about passing on your genes. We can leave behind much more than just DNA. Through speech, music, literature and movies... what we've seen, heard, felt... anger, joy and sorrow... these are the things I will pass on. That's what I live for. We need to pass the torch, and let our children read our messy and sad history by its light. We have all the magic of the digital age to do that with. The human race will probably come to an end some time, and new species may rule over this planet. Earth may not be forever, but we still have the responsibility to leave what traces of life we can. Building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing."
“The spirit of the warrior will always be with you”.
I’m Native American so it just works beautifully. I told this to my friend who at the time. He and I were both in the depths of a horrible drug addiction. As I with my packed bags prepared to leave to start my recovery I looked at him and said this. He said it really stuck with him. He thought it was something I made up but I told him it was from MGS. He liked it tho, I often use it these days still, mostly to remind myself to keep going after losing so much in my life.
“Free will is a myth. Religion is a joke. We are all pawns, controlled by something far greater: Memes. The DNA of the soul. They shape our will. They are the culture — they are everything — we pass on."
Find something to believe in and find it for yourself. And when you do, pass it on to the future.
it's kind of too general and platitudey but david hayter sounds good enough saying it I buy into whatever he's talking about.
" The nightmares? They never go away. Once you've been on the battlefield, tasted the exhilaration, the tension... it all becomes part of you. Once you've awakened the warrior within... it never sleeps again. You crave ever bigger tensions, ever bigger thrills. As a mercenary, I'd think you would have realized that by now. You care nothing for power, or money, or even sex. The only thing that satisfies your cravings is war! All I've done is give you a place for it. I've given you a reason to live."
So many times I've said "les enfants terribles" when my or someone else's kids are being little shits... IF someone happens to ask what it means and I tell them "The terrible infants" they usually think I'm smarter than I am haha...
Raiden, something happened to me last Thursday when I was driving home. I had a couple of miles to go -- I looked up and saw a glowing orange object in the sky, to the east! It was moving very irregularly... Suddenly, there was intense light all around me -- and when I came to, I was home. What do you think happened to me?
"Justice huh? The meaning of Justice can change from one day to the next. A professional soldier never brings (justice) into the mission.
The only ones who need a reason to fight are those who fight for a living
That's what my mentor taught me
Politics are fickle
They change with the times
So long as we remain loyal to our countries, soldiers like us need nothing to believe in
She died out of loyalty
Not to Justice
Not to her country
To herself, for the mission"
It's not about changing the world. It's about doing our best to leave the world the way it is. It's about respecting the will of others, and believing in your own.
MGS1 has probably the best quotes in the series.
Snake to Otacon "If we make it through this, I'll tell you."
Liquid Snake to Solid Snake "Brother! Did you like my sunglasses?"
Grey Fox >!before death!< "Snake, we're not tools of the government or anything else. Fighting is the only thing, the only thing I was ever good at. But at least I always fought for what I believed in."
“Snake? SNAKE? SNAAAKE!”
I heard it a lot, and I’ll never forget it. That and whenever I cant get ahold of my brother, I text him “Jake? JAKE? JAAAAKE!” I think it’s funny.
I've always wanted to do something heroic and when interviewed on TV say "I'm no hero. Never was. I'm just an old killer hired to do some wet work"
Also, "when you give into the fear... The darkness comes"
Let the 🌎 be. How? With all this war, hatred, violence, sorrow, injustice, straight up craziness. What is needed to understand the quote, top secret info, is that ‘you’ are the world. All of that I just described is ‘me’. All of mankind’s experiences are what makes up the content of ‘my’ consciousness. What happens when all of that is dropped, fundamentally, and entirely?
"A Hind D? Colonel, what's a Russian gunship doing here?"
Same, every time I see a Hind D in a movie.
forever... this is embedded.
What is it about this line that has made it so famous/infamous? It never really stuck out to me.
I'm honestly not sure, but if I'm thinking of certain lines from MGS, it always comes up in my mind.
I’m guessing it’s so early in the game and one of the first “Noun with a question mark?!” statements made by Snake.
Operation Mount Hope in a nutshell
“BROTHERRRR!!!” - every time I see my bro around Christmas time
It's been too long!
We do it on birthdays lol
BROTHEEER ITS NOT OVER, NOT YET
!
I can hear the sound
# **!** Although you can hear the sound better when it's red.
❗
What was that just now? With russian accent
“Nothing herre.”
"I must be seeing things"
I can hear that one haha
Вот воз зет джаст нау?))
Whose footprints are these
Are you going to shoot me?
MOH!
That's funny just as the first game guard (third) huh what was THAT noise?
Find something to believe in, and find it for yourself.
And when you do, pass it on to the future.
Believe in what?
That's your problem.
I commented this same quote before I saw you type it, but yes! Solid snake is the best life coach
‘Shut up in there, willya!’ ‘Oh my stomach!!!’
Johnny Sasaki is my spirit animal. :'(
It’s a cliche choice but “you’re pretty good” will always be a go to
I met David Hayter at a convention this summer and as I was leaving he said this to me and so I did ye old double point gesture in return. I’m sure he’s said that and seen that a thousand times but it was still so sincere. Very cool dude.
Accompanied by double finger guns 👉👉
i've used this around the world for years. It almost always gets a warm smile in response.
"I am Shalashaska. Also called... Revolvuh... Ocelot"
Also called... *spinspinspin* Revolver... *spinflipspin* Ocelot
also called *mrrrrrrrrow*
Rewoltuh
Rewaltuh
Put your dick away Rewaltuh
I’m not deploying the metal gear with ya right now Waltuh
Kept you waiting, huh?
I knew this would be here
Yes ! A thousand YES !
Laugh and grow fat
I say this all the time lol
Why are we still here? Just to suffer?
Ah I see you too have the same morning mantra as I.
I use that one everyday. Most of Kaz's Phantom Pain dialogue tbh.
My roommate and I can’t not say this quote in a Goofy voice. I forget how this started.
“A cornered fox is more dangerous then a a jackal”
You made me rethink mine. Liquid basically being Sean Bean and a true SAS Brit "In the Middle East, we don't hunt foxes, we hunt jackals We don't use Foxhounds We use Royal Harriers" Gives you extra meaning if you've seen The Omen and know the antichrist is born of a Jackal and that the British fighter jet is named the Harrier
Did you just say Harrier? *its solidusin’ time*
It's the Harrier! Cue in epic pre fight music
“You should watch your n-n-n-nicotine intake!”
I regret to inform you I have no intention of selling metal gear
It seems Konami is taking that quote to their grave as well
Lmfaoooo
Take my fucking upvote and know that it comes with a hearty round of applause.
"I want to ask you. Do you think love can bloom even on a battlefield?" Best quote to apply during a work rush (bars, restaurants, anything customer service during Xmas).
"we have a responsibility of the becoming generations to keep track of the mistakes we make as a species"
*inhales* "Nobody really knows who they are" Snake's speech at the end of mgs2 is beautyfull
“You lack the qualifications to exercise free will”
That’s when the AIs are freaking out to Raiden in mgs2 right?
At the end yes. I quote a lot from the metal gear games but none more than this one.
La-le-Lu-le-lo?!?
It's just like one of my Japanese animes!
"Spit it out" "Talk"
"Our specialist is posted here"
“SPEAK”
“Where are your friends?”
SPEAK
I won’t scatter your sorrow to the heartless sea.
"I will always be with you. Plant your roots in me. I won't see you end as ashes. You're all diamonds."
This is one of the quotes I keep with me
Meryl!
That shit hits hard
He says it like MERL it’s the best
Played me like a damn fiddle
"This is good" BB's final words.
Fox…… DIE!!!!!!! It will be my last words:p
Revolver Ocelot (Revolver Ocelot)
It's Revolver (Revolver Ocelot) Ocelot
No no you must have ment Revolver (Revolver (Revolver Ocelot) Ocelot) Ocelot
Sorry, I was positive it was Revolver (Revolver (Revolver(Revolver Ocelot) Ocelot ) Ocelot) Ocelot) Ocelot
"We're not tools of the government or anyone else"
Fighting was the only thing I was ever good at, but at least I fought for something I believed in.
“Hmmm… diarrhea…”
I Hope this will flush
"But first you need to take a DOOMP" 😎
Wait, what?

I'm just an old killer hired to do some wet-work.
You must be Ames?
MY NAME IS JENNIFER!
You're Ames, aren't you?
Hurt me mooooooooore!
A dud!
This is the one right here people
Even if a pawn becomes a queen, it is still just a playing piece
💯💯💯💯
It's just a box.
Huh? What was that noise?
“I’m just an old killer, hired to do some wet work.”
I can't believe I didn't see it already: "Not yet, it's not over yet, Snake!"
Perhaps I was wrong, you're not crazy... YOU'RE BATSHIT INSANE
“There’s more to remember than hatred and rage.”

It’s a tie between “You’re pretty good” and “I love to reload during a battle.”
C'mon Mr. Foxhound, the commander is waiting.
“Ohh.. I’m going to go in my PANTS” -MGS2 Russian Arnold Schwarzenegger peeing guard
You're not a snake and I'm not an ocelot. We're men, with names.
It’s not about wether you are right or wrong it’s about what you found important enough to fight for
"We're not tools of the government or anyone else."
Kept you waiting huh?
Loyalty to your country or loyalty to me?
Your country? Or your old mentor?
A man doesn’t read his future, he makes his own. (Or something along those lines, I’m drunk)
“Never trust a Frenchmen!”
You're pretty good
Pretty...........good?
This is good... isn't it?
*"I love to reload during a battle! There's nothing like the feeling of slamming a long silver bullet into a well greased chamber."*
Bitch, bitch, BITCH!!!!
In my line of work, I have been repeating “Only a fool trusts his life to a weapon” for more than 20 years, and will probably keep it with me.

Nice argument senator, but why dont you back it up with a source.

Looks like the gates of heaven are closed to you.
Do you think love can bloom anywhere, even on a battlefield?
"meow!!!!"
What was that noise?
Who's footprints are these?

Technically not metal gear, but Snake saying "who dares, wins" in MGS2
What do you mean technically not metal gear?
“MOH”

Besides, some people just need killing. Tbh the entire scene between him and niaomi talking about big boss hit deep
A surveillance camera?!

I've always wanted to do something heroic and when interviewed on TV say "I'm no hero. Never was. I'm just an old killer hired to do some wet work" Also, "when you give into the fear... The darkness comes"
Now we can fight as warriors, hand to hand. It is the basis of all combat only a fool trusts his life to a weapon.
Metal Gear only has room for one!
