50 Best Tom Hiddleston Quotes

[from trailer]
Jane: [slaps Loki] That was for New York!
Loki: I like her.

Eve: You have to get up
Adam: If I can even f*ing walk!

[Loki appears in front of a fuming Thor]
Thor: It's unwise to be in my company right now, brother. Today was to be my day of triumph!
Loki: It'll come, in time. If it's any consolation, I think you're right. About the Frost Giants, about Laufey, about everything. If they were able to slip past Asgard's defenses once, who's to say they won't try again? Next time with an army.
Thor: Exactly!
Loki: There's nothing you can do without defying Father.
[Thor looks at Loki]
Loki: No! No, no, no, no! I know that look!
Thor: It's the only way to ensure the safety of our borders!
Loki: Thor, it's madness!

Loki: The Casket wasn't the only thing you took from Jotunheim that day, was it?
Odin: No. In the aftermath of the battle I went into the temple and I found a baby. Small for a Giant's offspring, abandoned, suffering, left to die. Laufey's son.
Loki: Laufey's son?
Odin: Yes.
Loki: Why? You were knee-deep in Jotun blood. Why would you take me?
Odin: You were an innocent child.
Loki: No. You took me for a purpose. What was it?... TELL ME!
Odin: I thought we could unite our kingdoms one day. Bring about an alliance, bring about permanent peace... through you.
Loki: What?
Odin: But those plans no longer matter.
Loki: So I am no more than another stolen relic, locked up here until you might have use of me?
Odin: Why do you twist my words?
Loki: You could have told me what I was from the beginning! Why didn't you?
Odin: You're my son... I wanted only to protect you from the truth...
Loki: What, because I... I... I am the monster parents tell their children about at night?
Odin: [unwell] No! No!
Loki: You know, it all makes sense now, why you favored Thor all these years, because no matter how much you claim to love me, you could never have a Frost Giant sitting on the throne of Asgard!
[an overcome Odin collapses]
Loki: Guards! Guards, please help!

Ava: Yeah! Adam's gonna take us out!
Adam: No, Adam is Not going to take you out!
[cut to them all out at a nightclub]

Sif: Loki, you must go to the All-Father and convince him to change his mind.
Loki: And if I do, then what? I love Thor more dearly than any of you, but you know what he is. He's arrogant, he's reckless, he's dangerous! You saw how he was today. Is that what Asgard needs from its King?
[Loki walks off]
Sif: He may speak for the good of Asgard, but he's always been jealous of Thor!
Volstagg: We should be grateful to him. He saved our lives.
Hogun: Laufey said, there were traitors in the house of Odin. A master of magic could bring three Jotuns into Asgard.
Fandral: Loki's always been one for mischief, but you're talking about something else entirely!

Adam: I like to come to the source. Besides, the mutual jeopardy makes me feel safer.

Loki: You know this is wonderful! This a tremendous idea! Let's steal the biggest, most obvious ship in the universe and escape in that! Flying around the city, smash it into everything in sight and everyone will see it! It's brilliant Thor! It's truly brillian...
[Thor hurls Loki out of the ship, and jumps out with Jane in his arms... into a skiff piloted by Fandral]
Fandral: [laughing] I see your time in the dungeon has made you no less graceful, Loki!
Loki: You lied to me! I'm impressed.

Loki: Hello, Bruce.
Bruce: Last time we saw you, you were trying to kill everyone. What are you up to these days?
Loki: It varies from moment to moment.

Adam: Just goes to show... we really don't know shit about fungi.

[Fury is visiting an imprisoned Loki]
Nick: In case it's unclear, if you try to escape, you so much as scratch that glass...
[Fury hits a button on the machine and opens metal iris panels around the chamber]
Nick: ...it's 30,000 feet straight down in a steel trap. You get how that works? Ant... boot.
Loki: It's an impressive cage. Not built, I think, for me.
Nick: Built for something a lot stronger than you.
Loki: Oh, I've heard. The mindless beast, makes play he's still a man. How desperate are you, that you call on such lost creatures to defend you?
Nick: How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steal a force you can't hope to control. You talk about peace and you kill 'cause it's fun. You have made me VERY desperate. You might not be glad that you did.
Loki: Ooh. It burns you to have come so close. To have the Tesseract, to have power, unlimited power. And for what? A warm light for all mankind to share. And then to be reminded what real power is.
Nick: [walks away] Well, let me know if "real power" wants a magazine or something.

Loki: [about Odin] So why did he lie?
Frigga: He kept the truth from you so you would never feel different. You are our son, Loki, and we your family.

Loki: [to Odin during his trial] It's not that I don't love our little talks, it's just... I don't love them.

Volstagg: If you even THINK about betraying him...
Loki: You'll kill me? Evidently there will be a line.

Loki: Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity
Tony: Uh, actually I'm planning to threaten you.
Loki: You should have left your armor on for that.
Tony: Yeah. It's seen a bit of "mileage" and you got the "glow-stick of destiny". Would you like a drink?
Loki: Stalling me won't change anything
Tony: No, no no, threatening! No drink? You sure? I'm having one.

Loki: Kneel before me. I said, KNEEL!
[Loki stamps his scepter on the ground, causing a shockwave that intimidates the crowd into silence as they all kneel before him]
Loki: Is not this simpler? Is this not your natural state? It's the unspoken truth of humanity, that you crave subjugation. The bright lure of freedom diminishes your life's joy in a mad scramble for power, for identity. You were made to be ruled. In the end, you will always kneel.
German Old Man: [slowly rises to his feet] Not to men like you.
Loki: [smiling] There are no men like me.
German Old Man: There are *always* men like you.
Loki: Look to your elder, people. Let him be an example.
[Loki aims a blast of power from his scepter at the old man when Captain America leaps in front of the intended target, deflecting the blast with his shield back at Loki, knocking him down]
Steve: You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.
Loki: The soldier. A man out of time.
Steve: I'm not the one who's out of time.

Loki: Brother, whatever you're doing, I suggest you do it faster.

Loki: Enough! You are, all of you are beneath me! I am a god, you dull creature, and I will not be bullied by...
[Hulk flattens Loki with repeated smashes into the floor]
The: Puny god.

Eve: Tell me now about entanglement. Einstein's spooky action at a distance. Is it related to quantum theory?
Adam: Hm. No I mean, it's not a Theory it's proven.
Eve: How does it go again?
Adam: When you separate an entwined particle and you move both parts away from the other, even at opposite ends of the universe, if you alter or affect one, the other will be identically altered or affected.
Eve: Spooky. Even at opposite ends of the universe?
Adam: Yeah.

[the Hulk appears in the arena]
Loki: [horrorstruck] I have to get off this planet!

Loki: How will your friends have time for me, when they're so busy fighting you?
[taps Stark with his scepter, but the Arc Reactor stops the effect]
Loki: [tries again, with no success] This usually works...
Tony: Well, performance issues, it's not uncommon. One out of five...

[after credits]
[Dr Selvig wanders around an underground base]
Nick: [greeting him] Dr. Selvig.
Erik: So, you're the man behind all this? It's quite a labyrinth. I was thinking that you had taken me down here to kill me.
Nick: I've been hearing about the New Mexico situation. Your work has impressed a lot of people who are much smarter than I am.
Erik: I had a lot to work with: the Foster theory, a gateway to another dimension... it's unprecedented...
[Fury doesn't respond]
Erik: ...isn't it?
Nick: Legend tells us one thing; history, another. But, every now and then, we find something that belongs to both.
[Fury opens a suitcase, which contains a small cube]
Erik: What is it?
Nick: Power, Doctor. If we figure out how to tap it, maybe unlimited power.
[Loki is seen in a reflection, smiling]
Loki: [whispers to Selvig] Well, I guess that's worth a look.
Erik: Well, I guess that's worth a look.

Loki: Look at you. The mighty Thor! With all your strength! And what good does it do you now? Do you hear me, brother? There's nothing you can do!
[Thor smashes the Bifrost]
Loki: What are you doing? If you destroy the Bridge, you'll never see her again!
Thor: Forgive me, Jane!

[Thor flies the Harrow, but is off to a rocky start and destroys a lot of columns in the building]
Loki: I think you missed a column.

Adam: Look at what she did to my Gibson.

Loki: Malekith! I am Loki of Jotunheim, and I have brought you a gift!
[throws Jane to the ground]
Loki: I only ask for one thing in return; a good seat from which to watch Asgard burn!

[while interrogating Thor, Coulson steps out for a moment...]
Thor: Loki. What are you doing here?
Loki: [as a SHIELD agent] I had to see you.
Thor: What's happened? Tell me, is it Jotunheim? Let me explain to Father...
Loki: Father is dead.
Thor: What?
Loki: Your banishment, the threat of a new war... it was too much for him to bear. You mustn't blame yourself. I know that you loved him. I tried to tell him so, but he wouldn't listen. It was so cruel to put the hammer within your reach knowing that you could never lift it. The burden of the throne has fallen to me now.
Thor: Can I come home?
Loki: The truce with Jotunheim is conditional upon your exile.
Thor: Yes, but... couldn't we find a way...?
Loki: And Mother has forbidden your return. This is goodbye, brother. I'm so sorry.
Thor: No. I am sorry. Thank you for coming here.
Loki: Farewell.
Thor: Goodbye.
[Loki leaves, just as Coulson returns]
Agent: [having heard Thor] "Goodbye?" I just got back.

[Grandmaster is announcing the Hulk into the Sakaaran Arena]
Grandmaster: ...The champion! The Defending! I give you, your Incredible...
[Hulk enters the arena, roars]
Loki: [to himself] I have to get off this planet.
Grandmaster: [Runs into Loki as he is trying to run away] Whoa, whoa, where are you going? Sit down.
Hulk: HULK! HULK! HULK!
Thor: [to the Grandmaster] Hey! Hey! We know each other, he's a friend from work!
Thor: [to Hulk] Where have you been? Everyone thought you were dead! There's so much that's happened since I last saw you! I lost my hammer, like yesterday so that's still pretty fresh. Loki, Lok - Loki's alive, can you believe it? He's up there!
[Hulk glances at Loki]
Thor: Hey, Loki! Look who it is!
[Loki is horrorstruck]

Thor: Loki, I thought the world of you. I thought we were going to fight side-by-side forever, but at the end of the day you're you and I'm me and... oh, maybe there's still good in you but... let's be honest, our paths diverged a long time ago.
Loki: [emotional] Yeah... it's probably for the best that we'll never see each other again.
Thor: That's what you always wanted.
[pats Loki on the back]

[last lines]
Odin: One son who wanted the throne too much, and other who will not take it. Is this my legacy?
Thor: Loki died with honour. I shall try to live the same. Is that not legacy enough?
[offers the hammer]
Odin: It belongs to you, if you are worthy of it.
Thor: I shall try to be.
Odin: I can not give you my blessing, nor can I wish you good fortune.
Thor: I know.
[turns to leave]
Odin: If I were proud of the man my son has become, even that I could not say, it would speak only from my heart. Go, my son.
Thor: Thank you, Father.
[leaves]
Loki: [appears from Odin's guise] No... thank you.

Loki: I never wanted the throne, I only ever wanted to be your equal!

Thor: We have to stop her here and now, and prevent Ragnarok, the end of everything! So I'm putting together a team.
Loki: Like the old days.

Loki: [mockingly comes to attention before Odin and laughs] I really don't see what all the fuss is about.
Odin: Do you not truly feel the gravity of your crimes? Wherever you go there is war, ruin and death!
Loki: I went down to Midgard to rule the people of Earth as a benevolent God, just like you.
Odin: We are not gods! We're born, we live, we die, just as humans do.
Loki: Give or take five thousand years.

[Loki appears in Jotunheim]
King: Kill him.
Loki: After all I've done for you?
King: ...So you're the one who showed us the way into Asgard.
Loki: That was just a bit of fun, really. To ruin my brother's big day, and to protect the realm from his idiotic rule for a while longer.
King: I will hear you.
Loki: I will conceal you and a handful of your soldiers, lead you into Odin's chambers, and you can slay him where he lies.
King: Why not kill him yourself?
Loki: I suspect that the Asgardians would not take kindly to a king who had murdered his predecessor. Once Odin is dead, I will return the Casket to you...
[Laufey stands, his expression hungry]
Loki: And you can return Jotunheim to all its, uh... glory.
King: I... accept.

Natasha: I want to know what you've done to Agent Barton.
Loki: I would say I've expanded his mind.
Natasha: And once you've won, once you're king of the mountain, what happens to his mind?
Loki: Oh. Is this love, Agent Romanoff?
Natasha: Love is for children. I owe him a debt.
Loki: Tell me.
Natasha: Before I worked for SHIELD, I, uh... Well, I made a name for myself. I have a very specific skill set. I didn't care who I used it for, or on. I got on SHIELD's radar in a bad way. Agent Barton was sent to kill me. He made a different call.
Loki: And what will you do if I vow to spare him?
Natasha: Not let you out.
Loki: [smiles] No, but I like this. Your world in the balance, and you bargain for one man.
Natasha: Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that, I'm Russian... or was.
Loki: And what are you now?
Natasha: It's really not that complicated. I've got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out.
Loki: Can you? Can you wipe out that much red? Dreykov's daughter, Sao Paulo, the hospital fire?
[Natasha's calm demeanor starts to break]
Loki: Barton told me everything. Your ledger is dripping, it's GUSHING red, and you think saving a man no more virtuous than yourself will change anything? This is the basest sentimentality. This is a child at prayer... PATHETIC! You lie and kill in the service of liars and killers. You pretend to be separate, to have your own code. Something that makes up for the horrors. But they are a part of you, and they will never go away!... I won't touch Barton. Not until I make him kill you!
[Natasha's eyes start to bulge as her face turns fearful]
Loki: [snarling] Slowly, intimately, in every way he knows you fear! And then he'll wake just long enough to see his good work, and when he screams, I'll split his skull! This is MY bargain, you mewling quim!
[Natasha turns and takes several steps away]
Natasha: [starts to cry] You're a monster!
Loki: [laughing] Oh no, you brought the monster.
Natasha: [quickly dropping her facade] So, Banner... that's your play.
Loki: ...What?
Natasha: [on the intercom] Loki means to unleash the Hulk. Keep Banner in the lab, I'm on my way. Send Thor as well.
Natasha: [turning back to Loki] Thank you... for your cooperation.

Adam: It's probably blood poisoning.
Eve: Don't joke Adam.
Adam: I'm not!

Odin: All this because Loki desires a throne.
Loki: It is my birthright!
Odin: Your birthright was to die as a child! Cast out on a frozen rock. If I had not taken you in, you would not be here now to hate me.
Loki: If I am for the axe, then, for mercy's sake, just... swing it!

[Thor destroys a statue of Bor]
Loki: Well done, you just decapitated your grandfather!

[at a retirement home]
Loki: [in a dark suit] I left him right here.
Thor: [in casual wear] You mean on the pavement outside, or actually in the building currently being demolished?
Loki: How was I supposed to know? I can't see into the future, I'm not a witch!
Thor: Well, you're dressed like one.

Loki: You can at least furnish me with a weapon. My dagger, something!
[Thor puts something in Loki's hands...]
Loki: At last, a little common sense.
[Thor handcuffs him]
Thor: [grins] And I thought you liked tricks.

King: The house of Odin is full of traitors...
Thor: Do not dishonor my father's name with your lies!
King: Your father is a murderer and a thief! And why have YOU come, to talk of peace? You long for battle, you crave it! You're nothing more than a boy trying to prove himself a man!
Thor: Be warned, this boy grows tired of your mockery!
[Jotuns surround the Asgardians]
Loki: Thor, stop and think. Look around you, we're outnumbered...
Thor: Know your place, brother!
King: You know not what your actions would unleash... I do. Go now, while I still allow it.
[Loki has to restrain Thor]
Loki: We will accept your most gracious offer. Come on, brother...
[Thor turns to leave]
Frost: Run back home, little princess.
Loki: Damn...
[Thor smashes down the Sentry]
Thor: Next?

Loki: I have been falling... for 30 minutes!

Eve: I'm sure she'll be very famous.
Adam: God, I hope not. She's way too good for that.

Loki: [holds up his shackles] You still don't trust me?
Thor: Would you?
[releases Loki]
Loki: ...No, I wouldn't!
[stabs Thor]

[from trailer]
Loki: Born to be a king, I ask one thing in return: a front seat to watch Earth burn.

Loki: [as Kurse stares at him] You might want to take the stairs to the left.

Adam: [Referring to fridge] that doesn't actually work
Eve: Yes it does, I plugged it in

Loki: The Chitauri are coming. Nothing will change that. What have I to fear?
Tony: The Avengers. That's what we call ourselves; we're sort of like a team. "Earth's Mightiest Heroes" type thing.
Loki: Yes, I've met them.
Tony: Yeah, takes us a while to get any traction, I'll give you that one. But let's do a head count here: your brother the demi-god; a super soldier, a living legend who kind of lives up to the legend; a man with breath-taking anger management issues; a couple of master assassins, and YOU, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them.
Loki: That was the plan.
Tony: Not a great plan. When they come, and they WILL, they'll come for you.
Loki: I have an army.
Tony: We have a Hulk.
Loki: I thought the beast had wandered off...
Tony: You're missing the point! There's no throne, there is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's too much for us but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it!

Loki: If you're going to Earth, you might want a guide. I do have a bit of experience in that arena.
Thanos: Well, if you consider failure experience.
Loki: I consider *experience* experience.

Adam: Please, feel free to piss in my garden.
