- Colonel Hakha: Given time, even a monkey can write Shakespeare.
- Sergeant Rico Velasquez: What the fuck is a Shakespeare.
- [Velasquez wants to know what his duties are upon arriving on the Central Core of the SD Platform]
- Sergeant Rico Velasquez: What about me?
- Shadow Marshall Luger: You can clean house. There's bound to be plenty of playmates dying to play with your machinegun.
- Shadow Marshall Luger: Which side are you on?
- Colonel Hakha: My side.
- Scolar Visari: My people. Sons and daughters of Helghan.
- Scolar Visari: For many years, we have been a broken nation. Shunt, oppressed, and conqured by those we sought to escape. 10 years ago, I asked for time, and that time was granted by you. You, the strength in my arm, the holders of my dreams.
- Scolar Visari: Our forefathers embarked on the greatest exodus in the history of all mankind. An exodus for freedom. Helghan became that freedom. Our new world changed our bodies. At first, it weakened us, but in fact, we were growing... stronger.
- Scolar Visari: In the time you have given me, I have rebulit our nation, I have rebuilt out strenth, and I have rebuilt our pride! Our enemies at home have been reeducated. We have given them new insights into our cause. On this day, we stand united once more. On this day, those driven to divide us will hear our verse. On this day, we shall act as one, and we shall be ignored NO MORE!
- Scolar Visari: Defenders of the Helghast dream, NOW IS OUR TIME!
- Colonel Hakha: We'll have to hurry. The Earth Fleet will be here soon.
- Sergeant Rico Velasquez: [skeptical] How do you know this shit?
- Colonel Hakha: I'm a SPY. It's my JOB.
- Sergeant Rico Velasquez: Now this is my favorite kind of weather station. Look at all these fun toys.
