Quotes 

• Wolverine : Attacking a hospital for the blind! Just let me alone with those clowns for five minutes. Just five minutes!

  [WOLVERINE ROARS] 

  Jean Grey : Wolverine! Stop! You know that we can't...

  Wolverine : "X-Men never seek revenge." I know! So? Do we just let them get away with it?

  Jean Grey : No. But we have to approach this delicately.

  Wolverine : Delicately?

  Jean Grey : The Friends of Humanity thrive on public hatred of mutants. We can't help their cause by appearing to be on a rampage.

  Wolverine : All right, Jean, for now. But I'm going after them! And if we don't find a kinder, gentler way to shut them down, there's going to be a few less Friends of Humanity around stinking up the planet.

• Jean Grey : [Beast is looking through a photo album when Jean walks in with a tray of food]  I thought you might be hungry, Hank.

  Beast : No. Thank you.

  [Beast then walks over to a mirror, then lets out an anguished roar and smashes the mirror] 

  Jean Grey : It's Carly, isn't it?

  Beast : Why did this have to happen to me? Why can't I be normal? It's not fair!

  Jean Grey : We must think of how our gifts can benefit the world.

  Beast : Gifts? I can't be close to any human! I can't take a chance of endangering them! My parents! My brothers and sisters! And now... now the woman I love.

  Jean Grey : Hank, I had no idea she meant that much to you.

  Beast : It was so much easier when I was consumed with my work. I could pretend that what other people thought of me didn't matter.

  Jean Grey : How does she feel about you?

  Beast : I think she cares for me.

  Jean Grey : That's wonderful.

  Beast : No! I won't allow her to be with me. It's too dangerous.

  Jean Grey : Maybe you should let her decide what to risk. Talk to her, Hank. Give her that chance.
