The Terminator : Hasta la vista, baby.
-
John Connor : [1:16:18] No, no, no, no. You gotta listen to the way people talk. You don't say "affirmative," or some shit like that. You say "no problemo." And if someone comes on to you with an attitude you say "eat me." And if you want to shine them on it's "hasta la vista, baby."
The Terminator : Hasta la vista, baby.
John Connor : Yeah but later, dickwad. And if someone gets upset you say, "chill out"! Or you can do combinations.
The Terminator : Chill out, dickwad.
John Connor : Great! See, you're getting it!
The Terminator : No problemo.

-
The Terminator : Come with me if you want to live!

John Connor : Todd and Janelle are dicks, but I've gotta warn them. You got a quarter?
[the Terminator smashes into the coin bin and hands John a quarter]
Janelle Voight : [answers the phone] Hello?
John Connor : Janelle, it's me!
Janelle Voight : John?
John Connor : Yeah. Is everything all right? Are you guys okay?
Janelle Voight : Sure, honey, everything's okay. Are you all right?
John Connor : Yeah, I'm fine.
Janelle Voight : John, it's late. Honey, I was beginning to worry about you. If you hurry home, we can sit down and have dinner together. I'm making beef stew.
John Connor : [holds his hand over the phone] Something's wrong. She's never this nice.
Janelle Voight : John, where are you?
Todd Voight : [hearing Max barking outside] What the hell is that goddamn dog barking at?
Todd Voight : [shouting at Max] Hey! Shut up you worthless piece of shit!
John Connor : [to himself] The dog's really barking...
Todd Voight : Thought you were gonna tell the kid to get rid of that fucking mutt.
Janelle Voight : [uses her arm to kill Todd] John, honey, it's late. Please don't make me worry.
John Connor : [to Terminator, hand over the phone] Could it already be there?
Janelle Voight : Honey, are you okay?
The Terminator : [takes the phone from John and impersonates his voice] I'm right here. I'm fine.
Janelle Voight : Are you sure? Are you sure you're all right?
The Terminator : [to John; normal voice] What's the dog's name?
John Connor : Max.
The Terminator : [impersonating John's voice] Hey Janelle, what's wrong with Wolfie? I can hear him barking. Is he all right?
Janelle Voight : Wolfie's fine, honey. Wolfie's just fine. Where are you?
The Terminator : [hangs up the phone] Your foster parents are dead.

The Terminator : I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle.

-
The Terminator : I know now why you cry
[wipes a tear from John's face]
The Terminator : but it's something that I can never do.
-
John Connor : We need to get my mother.
The Terminator : Negative. The T-1000's highest probability for success now will be to copy Sarah Connor and to wait for you to make contact with her.
John Connor : Great, but what happens to her?
The Terminator : Typically, the subject being copied is terminated.
John Connor : Shit! Why didn't you tell me? We gotta go right now!
The Terminator : Negative. She's not a mission priority.
John Connor : Fuck you! She's a priority to me!
-
[the T-1000 has fallen into a vat of molten steel]
John Connor : Is it dead?
The Terminator : Terminated.
-
The Terminator : Why do you cry?
John Connor : You mean people?
The Terminator : Yes.
John Connor : I don't know. We just cry. You know, when it hurts.
The Terminator : Pain causes it?
John Connor : No, it's when there's nothing wrong with you, but you hurt anyway. You get it?
The Terminator : No.
-
John Connor : You just can't go around killing people.
The Terminator : Why?
John Connor : What do you mean why? 'Cause you can't.
The Terminator : Why?
John Connor : Because you just can't, okay? Trust me on this.
-
John Connor : We're not gonna make it, are we? People, I mean.
The Terminator : It's in your nature to destroy yourselves.
John Connor : Yeah. Major drag, huh?
-
John Connor : Jesus, you were gonna kill that guy.
The Terminator : Of course; I'm a Terminator.
-
The Terminator : Stay here. I'll be back.
-
John Connor : Are you ever afraid?
The Terminator : No.
John Connor : Not even of dying?
The Terminator : No.
John Connor : You don't feel any emotion about it one way or another?
The Terminator : No. I have to stay functional until my mission is complete. Then it doesn't matter.
John Connor : Yeah. I have to stay functional too. I'm "too important".
-
John Connor : [1:11:28] Can you learn stuff you haven't been programmed with so you could be... you know, more human? And not such a dork all the time?
The Terminator : My CPU is a neural-net processor; a learning computer. But Skynet presets the switch to read-only when we're sent out alone.
Sarah Connor : Doesn't want you doing too much thinking, huh?
The Terminator : No.
John Connor : Can we reset the switch?
The Terminator : Rotate the two locking cylinders counterclockwise. Do it. Now, open the port cover. Pull to break the seal. Good. Now, remove the shock dampening assembly. You can now access the CPU. Do you see it?
Sarah Connor : Yes.
The Terminator : Pull the CPU bolts space tab. Pull
-
John Connor : Wait a minute here. You're telling me that this thing can imitate anything it touches?
The Terminator : Anything it samples by physical contact.
John Connor : Get real, like it could disguise itself as a pack of cigarettes?
The Terminator : No, only an object of equal size.
John Connor : Then why doesn't it become a bomb or a machine gun or something to get me?
The Terminator : The T-1000 can't form complex machines. Guns and explosives have chemicals in them. Moving parts. It doesn't work that way, but it can form solid metal shapes.
John Connor : Like what?
The Terminator : Knives and stabbing weapons.
-
The Terminator : I'll take care of the police.
John Connor : Hey, wait! You swore!
The Terminator : [smiles] Trust me.
-
John Connor : You're not here to kill me. I figured out that for myself. So what's the deal?
The Terminator : My mission is to protect you.
John Connor : Yeah? Who sent you?
The Terminator : You did. Thirty-five years from now, you reprogrammed me to be your protector here, in this time.
John Connor : Oh, this is deep.
-
John Connor : Does it hurt when you get shot?
The Terminator : I sense injuries. The data could be called "pain."
-
The Terminator : [arriving at the mental hospital] Why we stop now?
John Connor : Now, you gotta promise me you're not gonna kill anyone, right?
The Terminator : Right.
John Connor : Swear?
The Terminator : What?
John Connor : Just put up your hand and say, "I swear I won't kill anyone."
The Terminator : [raises his hand] I swear I won't kill anyone.

The Terminator : In three years, Cyberdyne will become the largest supplier of military computer systems. All stealth bombers are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards, they fly with a perfect operational record. The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes online August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.
Sarah Connor : Skynet fights back.
The Terminator : Yes. It launches its missiles against the targets in Russia.
John Connor : Why attack Russia? Aren't they our friends now?
The Terminator : Because Skynet knows that the Russian counterattack will eliminate its enemies over here.
-
The Terminator : [John starts to cry] What's wrong with your eyes?
-
[One-armed and battered after confronting the T-1000]
The Terminator : I need a vacation.
-
John Connor : You know what you're doing?
The Terminator : I have detailed files on human anatomy.
Sarah Connor : I'll bet. Makes you a more efficient killer, right?
The Terminator : Correct.
-
John Connor : Where are we going?
The Terminator : We have to get out of the city immediately and avoid the authorities.
John Connor : Listen, I need to stop by my house. I want to pick up some stuff before we leave.
The Terminator : Negative. The T-1000 will definitely try to reacquire you there.
John Connor : Are you sure?
The Terminator : I would.
-
John Connor : So this other guy: he's a Terminator like you, right?
The Terminator : Not like me. A T-1000, advanced prototype.
John Connor : You mean more advanced than you are?
The Terminator : Yes. A mimetic polyalloy.
John Connor : What the hell does that mean?
The Terminator : Liquid metal.

The Terminator : Come with me if you want to live.

John Connor : Now don't take this the wrong way, but you're a Terminator, right?
The Terminator : Yes. Cyberdyne Systems, Model 101.

John Connor : [they're travelling in an ancient truck with the T-1000 hot on their heels] Step on it!
The Terminator : [the truck is only going about 65] This is the vehicle's top speed.
John Connor : I could get out and run faster than this!
-
The Terminator : My CPU is a neural-net processor; a learning computer. The more contact I have with humans, the more I learn.
-
Miles Dyson : Hi. Um, Carl. These are friends from out of town, I'm just gonna take them upstairs and show them around.
Gibbons : Now, c'mon Mr. Dyson, you know the rules if you want to bring visitors into the lab. I need written authorization...
The Terminator : [the Terminator and Sarah draw their guns] I insist.
Sarah Connor : [Gibbons is trying to push the alarm button] Don't even think about it.
-
Sarah Connor : [the T-1000 pursues John, Sarah, and the Terminator in a police helicopter] Chopper's coming in!
The Terminator : It's him.

The Terminator : [after reinserting the chip inside The Termiator's head] Was there a problem?
John Connor : No problem, none whatsoever.
-
John Connor : [1:08:54] I said I was OK
Sarah Connor : John, it was stupid of you to go there. God damn it you have to be smarter than that. you almost got yourself killed. What were you thinking? You cannot risk yourself even for me, do you understand? You're too important. Do you understand?
Sarah Connor : I had to get you out of that place. I'm sorry
Sarah Connor : I didn't need your help, I can take care of myself
The Terminator : What's wrong with your eyes?
-
Sarah Connor : [after throwing the arm and chip into the steel] It's over.
The Terminator : No. There is one more chip.
[points to his head]
The Terminator : And it must be destroyed also.
[hands her the lever]
The Terminator : Here. I cannot self-terminate. You must lower me into the steel.
John Connor : No... No!
The Terminator : I'm sorry, John.
John Connor : NO!
The Terminator : I'm sorry.
John Connor : No, it'll be okay! Stay with us! It'll be okay!
The Terminator : I have to go away.
John Connor : No, don't do it, please! Don't go!
The Terminator : I must go away, John.
John Connor : No! No, wait, wait! You don't have to do this.
The Terminator : Sorry.
John Connor : No, don't do it! Don't go!
The Terminator : It has to end here.
John Connor : I order you not to go. I order you not to go! I ORDER YOU NOT TO GO!
The Terminator : I know now why you cry, but it's something I can never do.
[John hugs the Terminator, and the Terminator shakes hands with Sarah]
The Terminator : Goodbye.
[Sarah lowers the Terminator into the steel, and the Terminator gives the two a thumbs up before its destruction]
