• [reciting Apocalypse's message to the world] 

  Charles Xavier : This message is for one reason alone: to tell the strongest among you...

  Apocalypse : Those with the greatest power, this earth will be yours!

  Charles Xavier : Those with the greatest power... protect those without. That's my message to the world.

• Apocalypse : It's over, Charles. You're finished. You're mine now.

  Charles Xavier : You will never win.

  Apocalypse : And why is that?

  Charles Xavier : Because you are alone... and I am not.

  [Jean Grey appears] 

• Apocalypse : [sends the world's nuclear weapons into space]  Always the same, and now all this. No more stones. No more spears. No more slings. No more swords. No more weapons! No more systems! No more! No more superpowers... So much faith in their tools, in their machines. You can fire your arrows from the Tower of Babel, but you can never strike god!

• Apocalypse : Everything they've built will fall! And from the ashes of their world, we'll build a better one!

• Erik Lensherr : Who are you?

  Apocalypse : Elohim, Pushan, Ra - I've been called many names over many lifetimes. I am born of death. I was there to spark and fan the flame of man's awakening, to spin the wheel of civilization. And when the forest would grow rank and needed clearing for new growth, I was there to set it ablaze.

• Apocalypse : You are all my children, and you're lost because you follow blind leaders. These false gods, systems of the weak, they've ruined my world. No more.

• Apocalypse : You betray me?

  Magneto : No. I betrayed them.

  [attacks Apocalypse] 

• Erik Lensherr : Stay back. Whoever you are, don't try to stop me from killing these men.

  [Apocalypse makes them vanish in cemented ground] 

  Apocalypse : I'm not here for them. I'm here for you.

  [enters energy field] 

  Apocalypse : Come and see.

• [Apocalypse touches a TV set] 

  Ororo Munroe : What are you doing?

  Apocalypse : Learning.

• [psychic battle] 

  Charles Xavier : You're in my house now!

  Apocalypse : [starts to grow]  You'll need a bigger house.

• Apocalypse : [at Cairo]  This was meant to be the center of the universe before I was betrayed. Now it will be.

  [creates a pyramid] 

• [Psylocke brings Apocalypse to Angel, but sees Angel's wing is damaged] 

  Psylocke : His fighting days are done.

  Apocalypse : No, they're not.

  [fixes Angel's wings and turns them to metal] 

  Apocalypse : Rise, my Angel!

• Apocalypse : Weapons... superpowers... The weak have taken the Earth. For this, I was betrayed. False gods, idols... no more. I have returned.

• Apocalypse : [to Magneto]  You will reach down, my son, deep into the earth. Rip everything they've built from the ground. Wipe clean this world, and we will lead those that survive into a better one.

• Apocalypse : Thank you for letting me in.

• Apocalypse : Together we will cleanse the earth for the strongest.

• Apocalypse : All has been revealed.

• Alex Summers : [charges after Apocalypse]  Hey! Hey, asshole!

  Apocalypse : All will be revealed, my child.

• Apocalypse : [crafts a helmet for Erik]  A gift, to honor your past life and your future role.

  Charles Xavier : And what about me? Do I have any role to play in this madness?

  Apocalypse : You have the most important role of all...

  [straps Charles down on a table] 

  Apocalypse : Despite my long life, there is one thing I can not do that you can: be everywhere... be everyone.

  Charles Xavier : No... no! Get out! GET OUT!

• Apocalypse : [catches Quicksilver]  Foolish child.

  [breaks his leg] 

• Erik Lensherr : Where were you when my father and mother were slaughtered in this place?

  Apocalypse : Asleep. Trapped in darkness. I was not there for you, my son, but I am here now. You don't know your own strength but I do. Reach down. Feel the metal in the ground. Reach. As deep as you can. You'll find you have the power to move the very Earth itself.

• Ororo Munroe : Where did you come from?

  Apocalypse : Oh... a time before man lost his way.

  Ororo Munroe : Well, welcome to the '80s.

  Apocalypse : This world needs to be...

  [in Arabic] 

  Apocalypse : Cleansed.

  Ororo Munroe : What?

  Apocalypse : [in English]  Saved.

• Apocalypse : [to Storm]  My child, why do you enslave yourself?

• Charles Xavier : You're blocking me. How?

  Apocalypse : I can shield their minds from your power. It's one of the many gifts I've acquired throughout the millenia. But to see inside a mind... to control it... that's your gift. You saw it, didn't you? The glory of what's to come.

  Charles Xavier : You're going to take part in all this killing and destruction?

  Erik Lensherr : It's all I've ever known.

  Charles Xavier : No, it isn't. You've just forgotten.

  Erik Lensherr : No, Charles, I remember. Your way doesn't work.

  Apocalypse : I've shown him a better way. A better world.

  Charles Xavier : No, you've just tapped into his rage and pain. That's all you've done.

• Psylocke : What do you want?

  Apocalypse : I want you... to feel the full reach of your powers. You've only had a taste of your true strength. Unlike others who seek control you, I want to set you free.

  Psylocke : I know the kind of mutants you're looking for. And I know where to find them.

• Apocalypse : [bringing Erik to Auschwitz]  This is where your power was born. And this is where your people were slaughtered.

  Erik Lensherr : [remembering the separation from his parents]  You shouldn't have brought me here.

  Apocalypse : Why? Are you afraid to be here? You can't escape it, Erik.

• Threatening Cairo Vendor : [cornering Ororo; in Arabic]  You know what we do to thieves. Pick a hand.

  Apocalypse : [appearing behind him; in ancient Egyptian]  Enough.

  Threatening Cairo Vendor : If you're with her, I suggest you walk away. While you still can.

  [Apocalypse advances] 

  Threatening Cairo Vendor : Walk away.

  Apocalypse : Who rules this world?

  Threatening Cairo Vendor : What language is that?
