Rambo Movie Quotes

John Rambo [while aiming an arrow at Lewis' eye] Any of you boys want to shoot, now's the time. There isn't one of us that doesn't want to be someplace else. But this is what we do, who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call.

John Rambo [from the Director's Cut] Go live your life 'cause you've got a good one.
Sarah It's what I'm trying to do.
John Rambo No, what you're trying to do is change what is.
Sarah And what is?
John Rambo That we're like animals! It's in the blood! It's natural! Peace? That's an accident! It's what is! When you're pushed, killing's as easy as breathing. When the killing stops in one place, it starts in another, but that's okay... 'cause you're killing for your country. But it ain't your country who asks you, it's a few men up top who want it. Old men start it, young men fight it, nobody wins, everybody in the middle dies... and nobody tells the truth! God's gonna make all that go away?
[pause]
John Rambo Don't waste your life, I did. Go home.

John Rambo You know what you are... what you're made of. War is in your blood. Don't fight it. You didn't kill for your country. You killed for yourself. God's never gonna make that go away. When you're pushed, killing's as easy as breathing.

Burnett I was told it might be possible to rent your boat. We'd like to do that. Is that possible? We need to get upriver.
John Rambo Where are you going?
Burnett Into Burma.
John Rambo Burma's a warzone.
Burnett Well, that's what people call it, but it's more like genocide than war. Anyway, this will be my fifth trip in, so we're aware of the risks.
John Rambo I don't go that far north.
Burnett Let me explain our situation. Our church is part of a pan-Asian ministry, located in Colorado. We are all volunteers who, around this time of year, bring in medical supplies, medical attention, prayer books, and support to the Karen tribespeople. People say you know the river better than anyone.
John Rambo They ain't lying.
Burnett So what I'm asking is that we compensate you for a few hours of your time that will help change people's lives.
John Rambo Are you bringing any weapons?
Burnett Of course not.
John Rambo You're not changing anything.
Burnett Well, it's thinking like that that keeps the world the way it is.
John Rambo [walking away] Fuck the world.

Burnett What did you do? We came here to help stop the killing! Who are you to...
John Rambo [grabs Burnett by the throat, and slams him up against a support beam] WHO ARE YOU?
Sarah Let him go!
John Rambo They would've raped her fifty times... and cut your fucking heads off! Who are you? Who are any of you?

Sarah Miller Maybe you've lost your faith in people. But you must still be faithful to something. You must still care about something. Maybe we can't change what is. But trying to save a life isn't wasting your life, is it?

Sarah And you just stayed?
John Rambo It's complicated.
Sarah You have family back home?
John Rambo Father, maybe. I don't know.

John Rambo Gotta have a reason for that.

🥱
John Rambo Why'd you come back?
Sarah Waiting for you.
John Rambo I told you before, I can't help you.
Sarah Well, we need to go and help these people. We're here to make a difference. We believe all lives are special.
John Rambo Some lives... some not.
Sarah Really? If everyone thought like you, nothing would ever change.
John Rambo Nothing does change.
Sarah Of course it does! Nothing stays the same!
John Rambo Live your life, 'cause you've got a good one.
Sarah It's what I'm trying to do!
John Rambo No, what you're trying to do is change what is.
Sarah And what is?
John Rambo Go home.

Major Pa Tee Tint [after raiding a village] These boys are now our soldiers! They belong to me now! If you try to get them back, your whole village will burn! If you ask the Karen Rebels for help, I will cut out your tongues! If you go against me, I will feed you your intestines! Hear me, believe me, and fear me!

[from Director's Cut]
Arthur Marsh [praying] Lord, make me your instrument of peace. Where there is hatred, let me bring love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may not seek to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love, for it is in giving that we receive. It is in dying that we awake to eternal life.

John Rambo [alternate line from Director's Cut] You're not going anywhere. And there isn't one of us that doesn't want to be someplace else. But this is what we do, who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call.

Lewis [to Rambo] Those God-squadders. They come over here, spouting all that shit, they expect the whole world to start working like their fucking neighbor. Well it doesn't! So they send in the devil...
[points to himself]
Lewis ...to do God's work. It's ironic, isn't it? Am I boring you, mate? Is it the trip? Has it got you nervous? 'Cause really, you should appreciate the action, you know what I mean? Got to be better than looking at the ass end of a snake!
[Rambo stares at Lewis]
Lewis Oh dear, you really are an uptight bastard, aren't you? You can drop the thousand-yard stare. I've seen it all before, and I'm not impressed.
