Sarah Connor: Hey. How was school?
Cameron Phillips: I have a metal plate in my head.
John Connor: She's gonna need a note.
Sarah Connor: I meant you, not her.
John Connor: Yeah, fine.
Sarah Connor: You're not going to give me anything?
John Connor: Oh well, we went, we learned. I didn't get killed and she didn't kill anybody. It's a pretty good first day, I think.

Derek Reese: You wanna know what happened? To Bedell, what really happened?
John Connor: I don't know, do I?
Derek Reese: I guess it depends on who I'm talking to - John Baum or John Connor?
John Connor: Baum is just a name.

Kyle Reese: "'You must be stronger than you imagine you can be. You must survive, or I will never exist.'"
Sarah Connor: "What is that? I've heard that before."
Kyle: "John's message to you. He made me memorize it before I came back."
Sarah: "I'm not strong enough. I'm gonna die."
Kyle: "It won't be the first time."

Cromartie: "Thank you for your time"

[Sarah opens the shower curtain while Derek is inside][...]
You killed Andy Goode. There is no one there to protect him and you killed him. You lie to me again and I'll kill you.
---
Cameron : I don't understand you need to find her, she's dead.
Sarah : That's because you don't value human life.
Cameron : She's not life, she's just a body. Bones and meat.
(Silence)
Cameron : Is that bad to say ?
---
Cameron: "And what should I do when I find him?"
Sarah: "Blow his head off."
Cameron: "He can put it back on."

On the night we first met, John’s father, Kyle Reese, told me words I remember to this day. He meant them as a warning, I think of them as words to live by. He told me of an apocalypse yet to come. Like a Pandora’s box, he unpacked every horror, every evil, every dark thing that haunts our future. He also left me an unborn son to whom he bequeathed what remained in the box after the nightmares fled. Hope. " 'Listen,' Kyle said. 'Listen and understand the machine is out there. It can’t be bargained with, it can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity or remorse or fear. And it absolutely will not stop ever until you are dead.

John: Okay, now blend in.
Cameron: Blend in.
John: Yeah, I mean don't seem like a freak. You know what I mean, right?
Cameron: Freak. Weirdo. Kook. Oddball. Crackpot. Strange duck. Weird potato. Nut. I've been reading the dictionary. I don't sleep.
John: See, that's what I'm talking about! You do that, you sound like a freak. You don't walk around acting like my bodyguard. You're supposed to be my sister.
---
Sarah: (after John is taken) I can't believe I let him talk me into this. You try to open your hands just a little, and it's too soon.
Cameron: Is it? The world ends in four years.

Sarah: (closing narration) The pride of man, of parents as well, makes us believe that anything we create we can control. Whether from clay or from metal, it is in the nature of us to make our own monsters. Our children are alloys all, built from our own imperfect flesh. We animate them with magic and never truly know what they will do.
---
Sarah:
(narrates) It is said that the death of any one person is the death of an entire world. Certainly for parents, the death of a child is no less than a holocaust. In the case of my son, these words are literally true.
---
Cameron: Yes, crank up the juice. --- Cromartie: Heres my card, call me anytime. I don't sleep. --- Cameron: It belongs to the guy I killed and stuffed in the trunk. --- Sarah: I don't know about God or heaven, but I do believe that someone or something wants this world to burn. The devil, demons. I believe. --- Cameron: Everybody on the floor! Please.

John & Sarah: No one is ever safe.
