"You break it, I'll remake it."

Ratchet

 

"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings."

 

"Diecast construction...its a lost art."

-Optimus Primal-

 

"In your dreams, slave of Megatron!" - Cliffjumper, from the Transformers tape "Sun Raid"

Reason being: My mom, who used to be a US history & government teacher, would say that to her students if they made unreasonable demands in her classes. She'd get stuff like,

Student: "Are you going to give us the answers to these questions before the exam?"
Mom: "Hahah...In your dreams, slave of Megatron!"
Student: "..."

Having seen her do this twice and view the student reactions, I have to say it became my absolute favorite Transformers quote.

 

Shockwave- "Clarity of thought before rashness of action."

 

double dealer
"The price of victory is never too high."

 

"Such heroic nonsense..." - Megatron

 

Springer: "I have better things to do tonight than die!"

Ultra Magnus: "I can't deal with that right now!" & "Open...dammit! Open!!"

Dinobot: Soliloqui before going into his final battle from the episode 'Code of Hero' which ends with "...I am a warrior, let the battle be joined." <- Best Transformers episode ever, ever.

 

Megatron: "I would have waited an eternity for this. It's over, Prime."
...joined with...
Prime: "Never!"

 

Well, since the other Prime's motto was already snagged, I'd go with

'Experience is the benchmark of maturity'

As the preferred motto.


As far as quites go, that's a toughie.

Oh wait, I got it - as said by Jetfire, in the face of a raving yellow Seeker-clone:

'Sorry Sunstorm - I don't believe in destiny.'

"Your All Military Morons!" -- Starscream - from "Bruticus Revenge"

"Your an idiot Starscream" -- Megatron - from "TFTM"

"We've been deceived by this walking garbage can" - Bombshell - from "The Traitor"

"If on decepticon turf you happened to tumble, look out robot cuz here comes Rumble" -- Rumble - from "S.O.S Dinobots

 

Rattrap: "We're all gonna die!"

and anytime Dinobot calls Rattrap a rodent!

 

ah

Slugfest-"Expect betrayal and your friends won't disappoint you."
Overkill-"Too much destruction is never enough."

Ah, the quotes of non speaking extinct robotic animals.

 

There are some good quotes out there, but somehow I've always preferred Megatron's for being a concise and emphatic expression of character. He had two different quotes depending on the source, but both are great...

"Peace through tyranny." and "Everything is fodder."

As for an actual line from a TV series, my eternal favourite has to be:

"Hey! Nobody calls Soundwave uncrazzamatic!"

Good ol' Rumble. He cracks me up.

"...and I have my honor."
-Dinobot2

I've never heard any other line in my entire life that was as touchingly heroic.

 

( alternators ) Nemesis Prime- “A warrior finds honor only in the total destruction of his enemies.”

 

Silly Devastator. You don't start a sentence with "And"!

 

As far as tech specs go, Soundwave's "Cries and screams are music to my ears" is always a classic. I also like Megatron's "Everything is fodder."

As far as one-liners... sheesh, the 86 movie is full of em, but the "unchrasamatic" line is always a good one.

 

Astrotrain: DIE! Like the worm you are!
