The Old Guard Quotes

  • Andy: The world can burn for all I care.

  • Nile: So are you good guys or bad guys?

    Joe: Depends on the century.

  • Soldier: What is he? Your boyfriend?

    Joe: You're a child. An infant. Your mocking is thus infantile. He's not my boyfriend. This man is more to me than you can dream. He's the moon when I'm lost in darkness and warmth when I shiver in cold. And his kiss still thrills me, even after a millennia. His heart overflows with the kindness of which this world is not worth of. I love this man beyond measure and reason. He's not my boyfriend. He's all and he's more.

    Nicky: You're an incurable romantic.

  • Andy: Well, sometimes you got to work with people, you don't want to eat with.

  • [first lines]

    Andy: [narrating] I've been here before. Over and over again. And each time the same question. Is this it? Will this time be the one? And each time the same answer. And I'm just so tired of it.

  • Nile: So why is this happening to me?

    Andy: I wish I knew.

    Nile: You said you had answers.

    Andy: I didn't say you'd like them.

  • Nile: Andy did all this herself?

    Booker: Yeah. That woman has forgotten more ways to kill than entire armies will ever learn.

  • Andy: I can't remember what my mother looked like. Or my sisters. None of them.

    Nile: Time steals it all away, I guess.

    Andy: It's not what time steals... it's what it leaves behind. Things you can't forget.

  • Merrick: How old are you?

    Andy: Come closer and I'll tell you.

  • Andy: It's nearly impossible to disappear in the world we live in today.

  • [last lines]

    Quynh: Booker. It's nice to finally meet you.

  • Andy: I lead a group of immortals. An army I guess. Soldiers, fighters like you.

  • Andy: You've got questions kid, I get it. You want answers, get back in the car.

  • Quynh: I've never been burned alive before, what do you think it's going to be like?

  • Andy: I know you are scared, Nile. Me and those three men in there will keep you safe.

  • Andy: We don't get a say on how it ends, we never have. But we can control how we live.
