Drax
- Drax: [to Quill] There are two types of beings in the universe, those who dance, and those who do not.
- Peter Quill: Sometimes, the thing you've been looking for your whole life is right there beside you all along.
- Drax: [next to Peter] You're right!
- Ego: I created what I imagined biological life to be like... down to the most minute detail.
- Drax: Did you make a penis?
- Peter Quill: Dude!
- Gamora: What is wrong with you?
- Drax: If he's a planet, how could he make a baby with your mother? He would smush her!
- Peter Quill: I don't need to hear how my parents...
- Drax: Why? My father would tell the story of impregnating my mother every winter solstice.
- Peter Quill: That's disgusting.
- Drax: It was beautiful. You earthers have hang-ups.
- Ego: Yes, Drax, I got a penis.
- Drax: Ha! Thank you!
- Ego: It's not half bad.
- Drax: How did you get to this weird dumb planet?
- Mantis: Ego found me in my larva state. Orphaned on my home world. He raised me by hand, and kept me as his own.
- Drax: So you're a pet.
- Mantis: I suppose.
- Drax: People usually want cute pets. Why would Ego want such a hideous one?
- Mantis: I am hideous?
- Drax: You are horrifying to look at. Yes.
- [Mantis lowers her eyes, offended by Drax' words]
- Drax: Bu-but that's a good thing.
- Mantis: Oh?
- Drax: When you're ugly, and someone loves you, you know they love you for who you are... beautiful people never know who to trust.
- Mantis: [cheerfully] Well, then I'm certainly grateful to be ugly!
- Rocket: Do you know why I did it, Star-Munch? Hmm?
- Peter Quill: I'm not gonna answer to "Star-Munch."
- Rocket: I did it because I wanted to!
- Peter Quill: Dick.
- Rocket: What are we even talking about this for? We just had a little man save us by blowing up fifty ships!
- Drax: How little?
- Rocket: [holding his thumb and forefinger close together] Well, I don't know, like this?
- Gamora: [skeptically] A little one-inch man saved us?
- Rocket: Well, if he got closer, I'm sure he would be much larger.
- Peter Quill: It's how eyesight works, you stupid raccoon.
- Rocket: *Don't call me a racoon*!
- Peter Quill: I'm sorry. I took it too far. I meant trash panda.
- [Rocket looks around in confusion]
- Rocket: Is that better?
- Drax: I don't know.
- Peter Quill: [snickering] It's worse. It's so much worse.
- [from Trailer]
- Mantis: When I touch someone I can feel their feelings.
- [touches Quill's hand]
- Mantis: You feel... love!
- Peter Quill: Yeah, I guess - Yeah, I feel a general unselfish love for everyone.
- Mantis: No. *Sexual* love...
- Peter Quill: No. No, I don't.
- Mantis: [points at Gamora] ... for her!
- Peter Quill: No!
- [Drax begins laughing hysterically]
- Drax: She just told everyone you deepest, darkest secret!
- [Drax continues laughing]
- Peter Quill: Dude! Come on! I think you're reacting a little bit!
- Drax: You must be so embarrassed!
- [continues cracking up]
- Drax: Do me! Do me! Do me!
- Drax: [Looking at Batteries] What are they called again?
- Peter Quill: Anulax batteries.
- Drax: Harbulary batteries.
- Peter Quill: That's nothing like what I just said.
- Peter Quill: You put your turd in my bed, I shave you.
- Rocket: Oh, it won't be my turd. It'll be Drax's.
- Drax: [laughs] I have famously huge turds.
- Peter Quill: This is weird. We've got a Sovereign fleet approaching from the rear.
- Gamora: Why would they do that?
- Drax: Probably because Rocket stole some of their batteries.
- Rocket: Dude!
- Drax: [awkwardly] Right... He didn't steal some of those. I don't know why they're after us. What a mystery this is.
- Drax: The beast's hide is too thick to be pierced from the outside. I must cut through it from the inside.
- Gamora: Huh?... No, no! Drax, wait a minute! *Drax*!
- [Drax charges at the monster, and leaps down its throat]
- Peter Quill: [horrified] What is he doing?
- Gamora: He said the skin is too thick to be pierced on the outside. So he...
- Peter Quill: But, that doesn't make any sense!
- Gamora: I tried telling him that!
- Peter Quill: Skin is the same level of thickness from the inside as from the outside!
- Gamora: I *realize* that.
- Mantis: If I touch someone, I can feel their feelings.
- Peter Quill: You read minds?
- Mantis: No. Telepaths know thoughts. Empaths feel feelings. Emotions.
- Mantis: [to Peter] May I?
- Peter Quill: All right.
- Mantis: [Mantis touches Peter's hand] You feel... love.
- Peter Quill: Yeah. I guess, yeah, I feel a general, unselfish love for just about everybody...
- Mantis: No! Romantic, sexual love.
- Peter Quill: No. No, I don't.
- Mantis: [points to Gamora] For her!
- Peter Quill: No, no. No, I don't.
- Mantis: [points to Gamora] For her.
- Peter Quill: No! That is not...
- [Drax starts laughing hysterically]
- Peter Quill: Okay... That's...
- Drax: [still laughing] She just told everyone your deepest, darkest secret!
- Peter Quill: Dude, come on, I think you're overreacting a little bit.
- Drax: [still laughing] You must be so embarrassed!
- Drax: [to Mantis] Do me! Do me! Do me!
- [Mantis touches Drax and she starts laughing hysterically]
- Mantis: I've never felt such humor!
- Peter Quill: So unbelievably uncool.
- Drax: Oh, Quill...
- [Mantis walks over to Gamora to touch her]
- Gamora: Touch me, and the *only* thing you're gonna feel is a broken jaw.
- Mantis: He's coming.
- Drax: Didn't you say you could make him sleep?
- Mantis: When he wants! He's too powerful! I can't!
- Drax: You don't have to believe in yourself, because I believe in you!
- Mantis: [places her hand within Ego's core] SLEEP!
- [Ego powers down]
- Drax: [to Gamora] I never thought she'd be able to do it; with as skinny and weak as she appears to be.
