Lara Croft

Zip: Oh, so that's where we put the temple.
Lara Croft: Grand entrances are always impractical, that's what makes them grand.

[Lara has lost contact with Zip and Alister]
Lara Croft: All those satellites and computers, just to perfect the science of talking to oneself!

Amanda Evert: You idiot! You ruined everything!
Lara Croft: All these years I blamed myself, and it was you! You killed her!
Amanda Evert: Killed her? She's not dead! She went where I was supposed to go! Where you could have gone!
Lara Croft: Make sense right now or I swear I will execute you right where you stand!
Amanda Evert: I told you to pull out the sword. I TOLD YOU!
Lara Croft: [firing her gun] WHERE... IS... MY... MOTHER?
Amanda Evert: AVALON! It's not a myth. Don't you get it? You'll never understand. I'm wasting my breath.
[Lara knocks Amanda out with the end of her gun]
Lara Croft: From this moment, your every breath is a gift from me.

Lara Croft: [Lara strolls into a Peruvian town sporting her two trademark pistols. All the town residents quickly run indoors] They don't seem quite so keen on visitors these days, do they?
Zip: Well hey, you're the one with the guns.
Lara Croft: You can't blame me for knowing how to accessorize. Any word from Anaya?
Zip: She said she'd meet you at the statue in the marketplace.
Lara Croft: At least we'll have our privacy.

Lara Croft: [after having traveled to Bolivia, Peru, Japan, Ghana and Kazakhstan] Did Alister have any luck with that map I sent?
Alister Fletcher: I'm back. You're not going to believe where this leads!
Lara Croft: Oh, you're going to find me extremely credulous today.
Alister Fletcher: Cornwall.
Lara Croft: [pause] As in "take the M5 to the A30" Cornwall?

Lara Croft: [Hanging off a cliff] Breathe, Zip. It's just like going up a set of stairs, only far less boring.
Zip: Yeah? Well I wanna throw up every time you look down.

Shogo Takamoto: I am not a thief, and you would be wise to avoid such accusations.
Lara Croft: Just name a price.
Shogo Takamoto: Miss Croft, are you deaf?
Lara Croft: I don't know, let's see. Try begging for your life like you did the last time we spoke.

Zip: Now, I don't get it. Weren't Excalibur and the sword in the stone the same thing?
Alister Fletcher: They were two bloody different swords!
Lara Croft: Now really, Zip, that was too easy.

Alister Fletcher: [after Lara has just sent a forklift hurdling over a ledge] Are you all right?
Lara Croft: I decided to take the slow way down instead.
Zip: Should've told that to the forklift.

Lara Croft: [after unsuccessfully attempting to remove a sword from the stone] No "King of England" jokes, Alister. I probably need to turn on the power first.

Narrator: Enter, once and future king! Merlin deems you worthy!
Alister Fletcher: Hmph, the real Merlin would roll around in the mud and bark at you. And I'm being generous by calling it mud.
Lara Croft: There's no difference between stupid and charming with you, is there?

Zip: The connection isn't too strong, so you probably won't be able to hear much once you're under water.
Lara Croft: There is a God.

Lara Croft: I think Amanda might not have died down there.
Anaya Imanu: Is that what this is all about? Closure?
Lara Croft: Isn't that what it's all about? Why we dig up the past? To understand it.
Anaya Imanu: I am an engineer, Lara. I build for the future; I don't dwell on the past.

Anaya Imanu: Lara, can you hear me? Those bastards from town are here, and they're coming down after you!
Lara Croft: Well, this is a tomb. I'll make them feel at home.

Winston: Not to presume, Lady Croft, but I hoped you wouldn't try to use the sword yourself after what happened to your mother.
Lara Croft: She removed the sword - that's what killed her. I don't intend to do the same. If my father had known any of this, he tried so hard. And they hated him for it.
Winston: No one hated him, Lara.
Lara Croft: It bloody well wasn't love, was it?
