Fullmetal Alchemist Quotes

[mooseegg1982]

I was looking for some good quotes from Fullmetal Alchemist. They always have really deep quotes from the show and I was wondering if anyone could send me some of their favorites. Thanks.

Here are a few The 3 different Openings from the anime. The one by Riza Hawkeye is only said at the begining of Episode #37 tho. ^_^
Alphonse Elric-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
Edward Elric-The Philosopher's Stone, those who possess it no longer bound by the laws of equivalent exchange in alchemy, can gain without sacrifice... create without equal exchange. We searched for it... and we found it.
Riza Hawkeye begining of Episode #37-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. Here at Central Headquarters, there was a band of brave soldiers, all willing to make that sacrifice in the name of peace. This is a tale of love and courage. A tale of the Flame Alchemist, Colonel Mustang, and his loyal team.

All of your anime qoutes suck! Manga Kimbley is that most profound person in the whole Fullmetal Alchemist universe!

Kimbley: Ahh, what a nice sound... Truly, a nice sound that resonates throughout the depths of the body. My spinal cord dances in sadness and my eardrums tremble in delight. And the joy of being able to feel that on this earth where it is always partnered with death...What a fulfilling job!!

Kimbley: When you defeat your opponent, can you definitely say that you don't think "I hit him! All right!" and hold pride in your skill, that you don't have even a little moment where you feel a sense of achievement in your work?
Miss Sniper
In my view, you are the ones that I can't understand.
To seek for justice in a special place like a battlefield is what's strange.
Is it heretical to kill with alchemy?
Is it better to kill with a gun?
Or is it that you were prepared to kill one or two, but can't bear killing thousands?
When you wore this of your own will, weren't you already prepared?
If you don't like it, you shouldn't have worn it in the first place. You moved forward onto this path on your own, why are you playing the victim now?
If you're going to take pity on yourself, don't kill people in the first place.
Don't avert your eyes away from death.
Look forward.
Look at the people you're killing in the face.
And don't forget them.
Don't forget.
Don't forget.
They won't forget you either.

Bradley: So you mean to save the remaining tens of thousands of Ishbalans with your one life?
Don't be conceited.
You say that your one life and the remaining tens of thousands of lives have equal worth?
Don't be so conceited, human.
One life has only the worth of that one life itself, and is no more or less than that.
I won't hear of any replacement.
I won't stop the annihilation either.
Wasting my time with such dull things.
Take them away.

Radom Ishbalan: You...barbarian!!
God's wrath will fall upon you!!

Bradley: God, you say?
Now how strange.
In these circumstances, God's wrath still hasn't fallen upon me.
Even now when the Ishbalans are about to come to ruin, God won't appear.
I wonder when and where God will appear and save you?
And what is God in the first place?
Is it not just an idol created by weak humans who want someone to depend on?
Will an idol defeat me, King Bradley? How ridiculous.
Take them away. Treat them the same as the other Ishbalans.
Captain Hughes, return to your station and under Grand's command, continue the extermination. Keep the loss of our men as low as possible.

Bradley: ---That's right....
God is created by humans.
It's merely something that comes from the hands of men.
In that case, what will bring wrath down upon us is not God, but probably "humans."

Those are all manga quotes right, crow-kun? I finally got to see a little of Kimbley in the manga finally. O_o; First impression: Nut job. I'll have to see if that impression changes as I read more.

[crow-kun]

Nutjob yes, cooler than anime kimbley yes.

[EmberAlchemist0]

:lol: Well I've only seen him once so far so I can't really make a real good comment about what I think except what I said about "Nutjob" :P *shrug* Later readings will tell!

[Cupi~chan]

I like the quote that says: "the one who receives pain can still sleep but the one who gives pain cannot sleep". It' s something like that, not in exact words but...
I think it' s true.

[wrathborne]

Think the best quote has to be scar to barry the chopper

Barry the chopper "I kill therefore I am. Whether I'm real or human does'nt matter. I'm a killer and thats all I need to know"

Scar "You're right. There is no need for you to prove you exist, because, very soon, you won't"

Vol 6 ep 1.

"You've got a good strong pair of legs, Rose. I suggest you use them," Ed.
This quote does something to me, you see my mom had trouble walking.

[Kyuu Dan]

"There are so many times when I should of died.." -Alphonse

I have no idea what episode it was, nor do I think it has too much quotation value, but still, I like it. ^_^

[Tidusauron12]

This quote is from the anime dub, when Ed was rescuing Al from Greed's HQ:

"SHUT UP! What the hell do you know?! Not everyone's like you! If you humonculous are really the mistakes made by us alchemists, then it should be an alchemists that destroys you." (something like that).

"Since you don't seem to have the guts kid, I'll prepare you... by showing you some of your own." Greed, during his fight with Ed. Of course, there are a bunch of better quotes, and mine aren't even that accurate, but hey, it has been a year since I last watched FMA, and half a year since I looked at the manga.

[valalight]

the quotes i like best are the following:

-Sloth: My memories are the driving force of everything I do...

-Scar: A man who inflicts suffering can not rest. His guilty mind won't allow it. But today I can finally close my eyes to the living nightmare and lay down, knowing that I won't wake again.

-Elder: Even in the darkest of suffering, a man can sleep. But for the man who inflicts the suffering, his mind cannot rest... ever.
Scar: Then from this day forth I'll never sleep again.

-Izumi: When you live, your life will end sooner or later... The body will return to the earth. Grass and flowers will grow on top of it. The soul will nourish the hearts... and it will live on in the hearts of other people. Everything in this world flows around and circulates. That goes for human lives too

hmm, i seem to like scars quotes best

-Scar: You poor thing...You're a sin against nature, and your body's in so much pain. Oh merciful God, who shapes us all... Return these scarred souls to your unending womb.

[Ace Paladin]

Ed: My brother told me who you are... what you really are.
Lust: I’m nothing but myself.

Sloth (After being sealed): Nicely done, sweetheart. Clean up after yourselves, and take care of each other

Mustang: Nothing's perfect... The world's not perfect. But it's there for us, trying the best it can. That's what makes it so damn beautiful.

[J.Mizuno]

WHO YOU CALLIN A HALF PINT MIDGET!!!?- Ed
He didnt say that brother.- AL

[ladyshiro]

"HE'S SO SMALL" MUSTANG (during the fight between Ed and Mustang)

[J.Mizuno]

Clause: You're nothing but a bunch of chickens! Posing as alchemists when you're just a cowardly little pipsqueak and his walking trashcan!
Edward: [angrily] Pipsqueak?
Alphonse: [sadly] Trashcan?
Edward: Nobody calls me a pipsqueak and gets away with it! Not even a little girl!
Clause: Oh, is that so. [mockingly] Gosh, I'm so terrified of a whiny little pipsqueak!
Edward: Shut up and take a look at yourself! If you're a girl like they all say, why do you dress like a paperboy?!
