- Steve Rogers

Spoken About Steve Rogers
"The serum amplifies everything that is inside, so good becomes great; bad becomes worse. This is why you were chosen. Because the strong man who has known power all his life, may lose respect for that power, but a weak man knows the value of strength, and knows... compassion."

- Abraham Erskine to Steve Rogers

"Geez! Somebody give that kid a sandwich!"

- Senator Brandt

- Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter

"Do you want to kill Nazis?" "I don't want to kill anyone, but I don't like bullies; I don't care where they're from."

- Dum Dum Dugan, Gabe Jones, Steve Rogers, and James Montgomery Falsworth

- Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes

"Arrogance may not be a uniquely American trait, but I must say you do it better than anyone. But there are limits to what even you can do, Captain, or did Erskine tell you otherwise?" "He told me you were insane." "Ah. He resented my genius and tried to deny me what was rightfully mine, but he gave you everything. So, what made you so special?" "Nothing. I'm just a kid from Brooklyn."

- Red Skull and Steve Rogers

"I have seen the future Captain! There are no flags!" "Not my future!"

- Red Skull and Captain America

"Right now I'm in the middle of nowhere. If I wait any longer a lot of people are gonna die. Peggy... this is my choice. Peggy... " "I'm here." "I'm gonna need a rain check on that dance." "Alright. A week next Saturday at the Stork Club." "You got it." "Eight o'clock on the dot. Don't you dare be late. Understood?" "You know I still don't know how to dance." "I'll show you how. Just be there." "We'll have the band play something slow. I'd hate to step on your..." "Steve? Steve? Steve?"

- Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter using the communicators during Steve's descent into the ice

"At ease, soldier!" "Who are you?" "Colonel Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. You would have known us as the Strategic Scientific Reserve." "Where am I?" "46th and Broadway. I'm sorry about that little show back there, but we didn't know what your mental state might be, so we thought it best to break it to you slowly." "Break what?" "You've been asleep, Cap. For almost 70 years." "How am I alive?" "Well, to be honest with you, we don't really know. My docs say it was suspended animation. Could be Dr. Erskine's formula, the extreme cold. I don't know." "What about the war? Did we win?" "Hell, yes. Unconditional surrender. Taking down HYDRA was a big part of that. But the world hasn't changed all that much. There's still a lot of work to be done. A soldier's work. The world can still use a man like you, Cap. There's a place here for you."

- Nick Fury and Steve Rogers

"You're here with a mission, sir?" "I am." Trying to get me back into the world?" "Trying to save it."

- Phil Coulson and Steve Rogers

"Hey! That's enough! Now I don't know what you plan on doing here..." "I've come here to put an end to Loki's schemes!" "Then prove it. Put that hammer down."

- Steve Rogers and Thor

"Dr. Banner is only here to track the cube. I was hoping you might join him." "I'd start with that stick of his. It may be magical, but it works a lot like a HYDRA weapon."

- Nick Fury and Steve Rogers

"Yeah. Big man in a suit of armor. Take that off, what are you?" "Genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist." "I know guys with none of that and worth ten of you. I've seen the footage. The only thing that you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play. To lay down on the wire and let the other guy crawl over you." "I think I would just cut the wire." "Always a way out. You know you may not be a threat but you better stop pretending to be a hero." "A hero? Like you? Your a laboratory experiment, Rogers. Everything special about you came out of a bottle."

- Captain America and Tony Stark

"How do we do this?" "As a team!"

- Black Widow and Steve Rogers

"Call it, Captain!" "Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal, our priority's containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or you turn it to ash." "Want to give me a lift?" "Right. Better clench up, Legolas." "Thor, you gotta try and bottleneck that portal. Slow 'em down. You got the lightning. Light the bastards up. You and me, we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk? Smash!"

- Iron Man, Captain America and Hawkeye

Spoken About Steve Rogers
"Oh this is much better, whew! Costume's a bit much. So tight. But with confidence, I can feel the righteousness surging! Hey, wanna have a rousing discussion about truth? Honor? Patriotism? God bless Ameri-"

- Loki imitating Captain America

Spoken by Steve Rogers
"For as long as I can remember, I just wanted to do what was right. I guess I'm not quite sure what that is anymore. And I thought I could throw myself back in: follow orders, serve. It's just not the same."

- Steve Rogers

"He's fast. Strong. Had a metal arm."

- Steve Rogers to Natasha Romanoff about Winter Soldier

"Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?"

- Steve Rogers

"That was not my first kiss since 1945. I'm 95, not dead."

- Steve Rogers to Natasha Romanoff

"Attention all S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, this is Steve Rogers. You've heard a lot about me over the last few days. Some of you were even ordered to hunt me down. But I think it's time to know the truth. S.H.I.E.L.D. is not what we thought it was. It's been taken over by HYDRA. Alexander Peirce is their leader. The S.T.R.I.K.E. and Insight crew are HYDRA as well. I don't know how many more, but I know they're in the building. They could be standing right next to you. They almost have what they want: absolute control. They shot Nick Fury, and it won't end there. If you launch those Helicarriers today HYDRA will be able to kill anyone that stands in their way... unless we stop them. And I know I'm asking a lot. The price of freedom is high, it always has been. And it's a price I'm willing to pay. And if I'm the only one, then so be it. But I'm willing to bet I'm not."

- Black Widow and Captain America

"We're going to neutralize a lot of threats before they even happen." "I thought the punishment usually came after the crime." "We can't afford to wait that long." "Who's we?"

- Nick Fury and Captain America

"This isn't freedom. This is fear." "S.H.I.E.L.D. takes the world as it is, not as we'd like it to be."

- Captain America and Nick Fury

"Captain America needs my help. When do we start?" "We just did."

- Sam Wilson and Captain America

Spoken by Steve Rogers
"Stark, you worry about bringing the city back down safely. The rest of us have one job, tear these things apart. You get hurt, hurt them back. You get killed... walk it off."

- Steve Rogers to the Avengers

"Ultron knows we're coming. Odds are we'll be riding into heavy fire. And that's what we signed up for. But the people of Sokovia, they didn't. So our priority is getting them out. All they want is to live their lives in peace. And that's not gonna happen today. But we can do our best to protect them. And we can get the job done. We find out what Ultron's been building, we find Romanoff, and we clear the field. Keep the fight between us. Ultron thinks we're monsters. That we're what's wrong with the world. This isn't just about beating him. It's about whether he's right."

- Captain America to the Avengers

Spoken about Steve Rogers

- Maria Hill and Tony Stark

"Captain America... God's righteous man. Pretending you could live without a war. I can't physically throw up in my mouth, but-"

- Ultron to Captain America

Dialogue
"Shit!" "Language!"

- Iron Man and Captain America

"Wait a second. No one else is gonna deal with the fact that Cap just said "Language"?" "I know. It Just slipped out."

- Iron Man and Captain America

"Looks like they're lining up." "Well, they're excited."

- Thor and Captain America

"And for gosh sake, watch your language!" "That's not going away anytime soon."

- Iron Man and Captain America

"Baron Strucker. HYDRA's number one thug." "Technically, I'm a thug for S.H.I.E.L.D." "Well, then technically you're unemployed. Where's Loki's Scepter?" "Don't worry, I know when I'm beat. You'll mention how I cooperated, I hope." "I'll put it right under illegal human experimentation."

- Captain America and Wolfgang von Strucker

"The two Enhanced?" "Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. Twins. Orphaned at 10 when a shell collapsed their apartment building. Sokovia's had a rough history. It's nowhere special, but it's on the way to everywhere special." "Their abilities?" "He's got increased metabolism and improved thermal homeostasis. Her thing is neuroelectric interfacing, telekinesis, mental manipulation. He's fast and she's weird." "Well, they're gonna show up again." "Agreed. File says they volunteered for Strucker's experiments. It's nuts." "Right. What kind of monster would let a German scientist experiment on them to protect their country?" "We're not at war, Captain." "They are."

- Steve Rogers and Maria Hill

""Earth's mightiest heroes." He pulled us apart like cotton candy." "Seems like you walked away all right." "Is that a problem?" "I don't trust a guy without a dark side. Call me old-fashioned." "Well, let's just say you haven't seen it yet." "You know Ultron is trying to tear us apart, right?" "Well, I guess you'd know. Whether you'd tell us is a bit of a question." "Banner and I were doing research." "That would affect the team." "That would end the team! Isn't that the mission? Isn't that the "Why We Fight"? So we can end the fight. So we get to go home!" "Every time someone tries to win a war before it starts, innocent people die. Every time."

- Steve Rogers and Tony Stark

"You know what's in that Cradle? The power to make real change, and that terrifies you." "I wouldn't call it a comfort."

- Ultron and Captain America

"I'm going in. Cap, can you keep him occupied?" "What do you think I've been doing?"

- Black Widow and Captain America

"Maybe I should take a page out of Barton's book. Build Pepper a farm, hope nobody blows it up." "The simple life." "You'll get there one day." "I don't know. Family, stability... The guy who wanted all that went in the ice 75 years ago. I think someone else came out." "You all right?" "I'm home."

- Tony Stark and Steve Rogers

Spoken about Steve Rogers
"It's really important to me that Cap never finds out about this."

- Sam Wilson

Spoken by Steve Rogers
"This job... We try to save as many people as we can. Sometimes that doesn't mean everybody, but, if we can't find a way to live with that, Next time... maybe nobody can be saved."

- Steve Rogers to Wanda Maximoff

"I know we're not perfect, but the safest hands are still our own."

- Captain America

"I’m glad you’re back at the compound, I don’t like the idea of you rattling around a mansion by yourself. We all need family. The Avengers are yours, maybe more so than mine. I’ve been on my own since I was 18. I never really fit in anywhere – even in the Army. My faith is in people, I guess. Individuals. And I’m happy to say for the most part, they haven’t let me down. Which is why I can’t let them down either. Locks can be replaced, but – maybe they shouldn’t. I know I hurt you Tony. I guess I thought – by not telling you about your parents I was sparing you, but... I can see now I was really sparing myself. I’m sorry. Hopefully one day you can understand. I wish we agreed on the Accords, I really do. I know you were only doing what you believe in, and that’s all any of us can do, it’s all any of us should. So no matter what, I promise if you -- if you need us. If you need me, I’ll be there."

"That shield doesn't belong to you. You don't deserve it! My father made that shield!"

- Iron Man to Captain America

Dialogue
"Tony, if someone dies on your watch, you don't give up." "Who said we're giving up?" "We are if we're not taking responsibility for our actions. This document just shifts the blame." "I'm sorry, Steve, that... that is dangerously arrogant. This is the United Nations we're talking about. It's not the World Security Council. It's not S.H.I.E.L.D.. It's not HYDRA-" "No, but it's run by people with agendas and agendas change." "That's good! That's why I'm here. When I realized what my weapons were capable of in the wrong hands, I shut it down and stopped manufacturing." "Tony, you chose to do that. If we sign this, we surrender our right to chose. What if this panel sends us somewhere we don't think we should go? What if there's somewhere we need to go and they don't let us? We may not be perfect, but the safest hands are still our own." "If we don't do this now, it's gonna be done to us later."

"I'm sorry, Tony. If I see a situation pointed south, I can't ignore it. Sometimes I wish I could." "Sometimes I want to punch you in your perfect teeth."

- Steve Rogers and Tony Stark

"What happens when the shooting starts, let them kill Steve Rogers? If we are provoked. Barnes would have been eliminate in Romania if it wasn't for Rogers. There are dead people who would be alive now. Feel free to check my math."

- Natasha Romanoff and Thaddeus Ross

"Cap." "You know I wouldn't have called if I had any other choice." "Hey man, you're doing me a favor. Besides... I owe her a dept."

"Thanks for having my back." "It was time to get off my ass."

- Steve Rogers and Wanda Maximoff

"Captain America." "Mr. Lang." "It's an honor. I'm shaking your hand too long. Wow, this is awesome! Captain America. I know you too, your great. Jeez. Look, I wanna say, I know you know a lot of super-people so... thinks for thanking of me."

- Scott Lang and Steve Rogers

"They tell you what we're up against?" "Something about some... psycho-assassins?" "We're outside the law on this one, so if you come with us your a wanted man." "Yeah, well, what else is new?"

- Steve Rogers and Scott Lang

"That thing doesn't obey the laws of physics at all." "Look, kid. There's a lot going on here that you don't understand." "Mr. Stark said you'd say that, wow. He also said to go for your legs."

- Spider-Man and Captain America

"Stark tell you anything else?" "That you're wrong. You think you're right. That makes you dangerous."

- Captain America and Spider-Man

"What's gonna happen to your friends?" "Whatever it is, I'll deal with it." "I don't know if I'm worth all this, Steve." "What you did all those years... It wasn't you. You didn't have a choice." "I know. But I did it."

- Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers

"You remember that time we had to ride back from in the back of that freezer truck?" "Was that the time we used our train money to buy hot dogs?" "You blew 3 bucks trying to win that stuffed bear for a redhead." "What was her name again?" "Dolores. You called her Dot." "She's got to be a hundred years old by now." "So are we, pal."

- Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes

"You seem a little defensive." "It's been a long day." "At ease, soldier. I'm not currently after you." "Then why are you here?" "Maybe your story is not so crazy." "Maybe." "Ross has no idea I'm here, I'd like to keep it that way. Otherwise, I got to arrest myself." "Well, that sounds like a lot of paperwork. It's good to see you, Tony." "You too, Cap."

- Iron Man and Captain America

"This isn't going to change what happened." "I don't care. He killed my mom."

- Captain America and Iron Man

"He's my friend." "So was I."

- Captain America and Iron Man

- Grant Ward and Leo Fitz

Only a select few people can know that he's alive Maria Hill, Cap, a couple of others, and now you and me."

- Eric Koenig and Phil Coulson

Spoken about Steve Rogers
"You want to hack the NSA? That's a bad idea, Skye. That's a terrible idea. The NSA's already got S.H.I.E.L.D. on its watch list. Why poke the bear the big, scary, waterboarding bear?" "Ohh! I thought you were a comms agent, not agent of playing video games while hiding in a bunker." "You can't goad me into..." "Can you help me convince Steve Rogers here to suit up, grab his shield, head into battle?"

"So maybe if you can learn to control this, then you could have Avengers-level powers, something like Captain America, even." "I think it best we keep in mind the unstable nature of Skye's power.

- Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons

"I haven't fully sequenced the formula yet, if only for the multitude of trace drugs found, but my initial list includes anabolic-androgenic steroids, a liver enzyme blocker, various metabolic enhancers, methamphetamines, what appears to be gorilla testosterone, and no lie a drop of peppermint. I think it's an ill-conceived attempt at super strength." "Other than Cap, every attempt has been ill-conceived."

- Jemma Simmons and Phil Coulson

Spoken about Steve Rogers
"The world fears our kind of power because not everyone has it. Only billionaires can build iron suits. Only the military can make super soldiers, which can only lead to a war of its own, whereas I plan to apply a more, uh, collectivist philosophy."

- Hive

Spoken about Steve Rogers

"I wouldn't mind hearing from our heroes directly, as they're the ones who've seen first hand what government oversight can lead to."

"I would take Captain America as well."

- Will Adams and Christine Everhart

"Now, Jackson, which Avengers were there exactly? Tony Stark?" "Captain Rogers involvement has been mentioned and corroborated. Some accounts indicate Sam Wilson and Natasha Romanoff, but nothing else definitive at this time."
