Erik Lehnsherr Quotes

In a game of chess the pawns go first.

Mutant Theatre Organizer : This cure is voluntary. Nobody's is talking about extermination.
Eric Lensherr : No one ever talks about it. They just do it. And you go on with your lives, ignoring the signs all around you. And then, one day, when the air is still and the night has fallen, they come for you.
Mutant Theatre Organizer : Excuse me, but...
Eric Lensherr : It's only that you realize, while you were talking about organizing and committees, the extermination has already begun. Make no mistake, my brothers. They will draw first blood. They will force their cure upon us. The only question is, will my brotherhood and fight, or wait for the inevitable genocide? Who will you stand with - the humans... or us?

Eric Lensherr : ... we have ours. We will strike with a vengeance and a fury that this world has never witnessed! And if any mutants stand in our way, we will use this poison against them! We shall go to Alcatraz Island, take control of the cure, and destroy its source! And then, nothing can stop us!

Raven Darkholme : About time
