Reporter:
What did your wife say when she saw your face?
Niki Lauda: [reporters laugh]
She said, "Sweetie, you don't need a face to drive, you just need a right foot.
Reporter:
I'm being serious. Do you think your marriage can survive... with the way you look now?
Lauda: [points index finger at him; storms out of room]
And I am being serious too... Fuck you! Press conference over.

Rush - Responsibility in Racing and Recovery
James Hunt:
I feel responsible for what happened.
Niki Lauda:
You were.
Hunt:
I swayed the room and the race should never have went ahead.
Lauda:
You did, but trust me. Watching you win those races while I was fighting for my life. You were equally responsible for getting me back in the car.

Rush - The Balance of Risk and Desire
Niki Lauda:
There's no need to drive fast. Just increases the percentage of risk. We're not in a hurry, I'm not being paid. Right now it's zero incentive or reward. Why would I drive fast?
Marlene Knaus:
Because I'm asking you to.
Lauda: [in German]
And do you always get what you want?
Knaus: [in German; suddenly pushed back against her seat as Niki steps on the gas]
Yeah. Usually.

Rush - Car Troubles and Mechanical Insights
Niki Lauda:
Your fan belt is loose.
Marlene Knaus:
My what?
Lauda:
And when you brake your foot goes all the way down, which means there's air in the system.
Knaus:
Anything else?
Lauda:
No... Apart from the rear brakes are worn out, the front right tire's a bit soft, which explains why you're weaving so much.
Knaus:
How can you tell?
Lauda:
My ass.
Knaus:
Sorry?
Lauda:
God gave me an okay mind, but a really good ass, which can feel everything in a car.

Rush - Reflections on Rivalry and Respect
Niki Lauda: [last lines]
Of course he didn't listen to me. For James, one world title was enough. He had proved what he needed to prove. To himself and anyone who doubted him. And two years later, he retired. When I saw him next in London, seven years later, me as a champion again, him as broadcaster, he was barefoot on a bicycle with a flat tire, still living each day like his last. When I heard he died age 45 of a heart attack, I wasn't surprised. I was just sad. People always think of us as rivals but he was among the very few I liked and even fewer that I respected. He remains the only person I envied.

Rush - Accepting Risk in Racing
Niki Lauda: [argues his case for cancelling the 1976 German Grand Prix]
I accept that every time I get into my car, there's 20% chance I could die and I could live with it, but not one percent more! And today with the rain, the risk is more.

Rush - The Risks and Realities of Formula One Racing
Niki Lauda: [first lines; frame in on James Hunt]
Twenty-five drivers start every season in Formula One, and each year two of us die. What kind of person does a job like this? Not normal men, for sure. Rebels, lunatics, dreamers. People who are that desperate to make a mark, and are prepared to die trying. My name is Niki Lauda, and racing people know me for two things. The first is my rivalry with him. I don't know why it became such a big thing. We were just drivers busting each other's balls. To me this is perfectly normal, but other people saw it differently. That whatever it was between us went deeper. The other thing I'm remembered for is what happened on 1st August 1976, when I was chasing him like an asshole…

Joyeux Noel - A Generous Offer Amidst War Tensions
Horstmayer:
I heard last night about your wife. If you like, I can get a letter through to her.
Lieutenant Audebert:
Why would you do that? If you got caught...
Horstmayer:
One letter won't stop us winning the war. And anyhow, when we'll have taken Paris and it's over, you can invite us for a drink in Rue Vavin.
Lieutenant Audebert:
You don't have to invade Paris to drop round for a drink.

Yes. Good. Then...
German Translator:
Monsieur le Maréchal, si vous permittez, on aimerais connaître les conditions- (Marshal, if you please, we would like to know the conditions-

The war will continue until you sign them.
Matthias Erzberger:
Monsieur le Maréchal, in God's name, don't let 72 hours pass us by here. Thousands of lives depend on it.
Marshal Ferdinand Foch: [Stands up, holding a pen out to Matthias]
Alors signe! (Sign then!)

Captain America: Civil War - Manipulation and Grief in Conflict
T'Challa:
I almost killed the wrong man.
Helmut Zemo: [Scoffs]
Hardly an innocent one.
T'Challa:
Is this all you wanted? To see them rip each other apart?
Zemo: [Beat]
My father lived outside the city, and I thought we would be safe there. My son was excited. He could see the Iron Man from the car window. I told my wife, "Don't worry. They're fighting in the city. We're miles from harm." When the dust cleared, and the screaming stopped... It took me two days until I found their bodies. My father still holding my wife and son in his arms. And the Avengers? They went home. I knew I couldn't kill them. More powerful men than me have tried. But if I could get them to kill each other? I'm sorry about your father. He seemed a good man. With a dutiful son.
T'Challa:
Vengeance has consumed you. It's consuming them. I am done letting it consume me. Justice will come soon enough.
Zemo: [Cocks a gun and puts it under his chin, but T'Challa catches him in time and restrains him easily]
Tell that to the dead.
T'Challa:
The living are not done with you yet.
