Also, hear me when I say that for all their horrors, the history of crises is a history of our triumphs. One long thread of moments when we all came together to save everything we cared about.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I know. And I know all this is the result of our choices and the choices of those we failed. But hear me when I say regardless of blame or cause, what this universe has become... no one wants this.

Sister, you just nearly killed an entire audience with a spell you used to be able to control in your sleep. Magic is broken. And it's clear you cannot fix it alone. Help me see an end to this, Zatanna. I beg you. The cost of this chaos is already too much to bear.

I know what you think of yourself, Bobo. But a few weeks ago, you faced a magical crisis and dove head-first, trying to solve it.

I'm done with people telling me what to do.

I can't do this anymore. I can't stop an alien holocaust one day and turn my back on the horrors of the real world on another. What kind of world do we want to leave our children?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

And then what? He wore a mask. Gloves. Congresswoman Hasgrove had a point. Who will convict this man? On what evidence? Do we judge and imprison? Execute? By our example--have we helped a man get away with murder...?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We must not jump to conclusions, my Lord! If there has been a crime committed here, it needs to be investigated...

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Before leaving Tir Na Nóg is ever seriously considered, this kingdom needs unity, and demands justice. This is not a trial -- yet -- for there has been no investigation. Good people -- I know a man who can help. A knight...

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I do understand. All life is precious. We all have a purpose. Even the most dangerous creatures.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

From searching for Themyscira, I've learned a lot about lost worlds in other dimensions. That plane -- if I'm right, it was flown by a U.S. Air Force pilot who made this world his own. As for the world itself -- it has a name... we're lost in Skartaris.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We can change the rules of this game. But first we have to trust each other. Like family.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

An Amazon's physical abilities are a priority because we're a race of warriors, but we see our minds as the most lethal of weapons.

Sorry, friends, but I must go save the man I love.

You both know the intent of my heart, as I now know yours. And knowing this, have you any reason to fear me?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Helen was born to such pain. I won't let it poison her life. The truth is a powerful tool. All we've done is refine it... to give Helen the best chance at a future filled with love and success.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Bind me? With proof - not trust? I won't be bound that way to any man... woman... or God.

A deal? How's this... Promise that you won't come after the baby... or as Zeus' daughter, I'll personally fulfill your prophecy.

Everything I cherished, she took from me. To punish me. For something Zeus had done.

Perfection... sometimes its our worst enemy. I tried to be perfect once. Decided to just try to be better. Found a good way to start that... is by accepting who you are.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You are a monster! Selfish! Cruel! Entitled! You're everything I'm not! And if I have to destroy you... I will not hesitate!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Warriors, I ask you to join me in a fight to reclaim Heaven. Follow me... not as your princess... but as the God of War!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Mother... Ha... For the first time I can call you that knowing your blood is in me... You're so wrong. I'm a lie. You're a fool. And you made one out of me.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There were times when I felt alone on this island, that I was different. And I was. But I've since learned that whatever differences we may have are paltry next to what we share in common. And that makes me happy. I am an Amazon, and I have never been prouder to say that...

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Dessa, we are a strong society, but I'm learning that some of what we are... comes from weakness-- old weakness. That through our strengths we can grow past. It's time to admit we're not perfect. And it's an admission that I, for one, am relieved to make. Because out of perfection...? Nothing can be made.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You are everything that I am not. The fire that burns in you consumes while mine inspires.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You scream for love, First Born, yet you know nothing of it. Love requires compassion... nurturing... and above all, submission. Here... I'll show you.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I can't seem to figure out how to give everyone the time and attention they deserve. Just when I think I'm starting to get things under control in one area of my life, another falls apart. I may be a god now, but I still can't be in two places at once.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Are you angry because I was prepared to do what needed to be done... or because you weren't?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You deserve better. I'm your daughter, your blood. It's something I always wished I was, and I am now.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The Amazons are a nation of warriors, and their queen needs to be the strongest of them all. I've been an outcast my entire life. Proving myself to them... it's what I do. It hurts a little less every time.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

This new costume is a symbol of that. It's a reflection of everything I am now: God, Queen, Warrior for Justice. It's finally time for me to leave the girl behind ... and embrace the woman I've become.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Every time I start to feel like I know my Olympian family ... I am reminded again that their secrets are as infinite as this staircase.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

My name is Diana. My mother is... was- Hippolyta. I request an audience... Lord Poseidon.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There is no sacrifice too great to save someone I love. And if my life were the price to save Zeke, I would have gladly paid it. But sometimes those choices aren't ours to make.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You said my lasso isn't a weapon, but when one is entwined in it, they speak the truth. And that-- the truth-- is my weapon.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Why do they do this? Why do they make this a battlefield?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

...all these times, all these years...I've NEVER BEEN HOME!. It was all just a lie...

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Do not worry, my survivor. I will help you... as we have always helped each other...

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I have never been back home, Etta. Somebody lied to me. And because I liked the lie they were telling, I chose to believe it. And in believing it, I made it my truth, and I forgot that it was a lie at all.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I can see the beauty of the heavens, I can see the poetry in their motion. But all we do is bear witness. All of you remember before, Kasia. You can recall the world you left, even if the memories of it bring you pain. I've never seen what lies beyond our shores. Do you really wonder why my eye goes to the horizon instead of the skies?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I understand that you see weakness in the places where I find strength. And I understand something more. That you will always be alone, Doctor Cale.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The world of humanity is filled with people in need. Sometimes I have the remedy within my power. I can use my skills, offer my strengths, share my gifts in defense of the disadvantaged. These days, I sleep in helicopters and wake up in war zones...because I want to bring peace.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Power is hard to live with, Doctor. And it is not yours to take.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I...I don't want you to die....I mean, ever. No matter how hard I try, there will be a time--with you, with Steven--when no power of mine will be able to stop it.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You are no beast ... you are a woman ... you are my friend!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The Patrons gave me great physical powers and the Perfect that would reveal the truth. But they left the weighing of hearts, the discernment of motivations, and the proclamation of guilt to me. I wrestle with my judgements of what is just, a gift that Revere would strip from an army weaponized by my blood. He sees them as tools and would curse them with the consequences of heroic life without giving them the integral freedom of their own judgement. They may be willing sacrifices in his plot, but their souls are not sacrifices I am willing to make. This is not how I will end war. This is not how I will end.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Grail. So this is your plan? You and Jason. I confess, I hoped when I fought you I'd be alongside my brother.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I would have defeated Darkseid this time. I'm certain... I alone. I know I could have... saved my father.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I love you, mother. I will make us proud.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Steve... you know you're the only one I let see me this way. Vulnerable.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

...I'm worried. We may have stopped Grail today -- saved the Wild Huntsman, too... but Darkseid's still out there... and Themyscira is in danger.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Love! Hatred won't win this -- violence -- but love just might!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Is this attack because whoever these gods are, I'm a threat to them in some way? Or is there more?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You are in pain, Moon. I hear it in your words... and give you mine. I do not abandon those in pain.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Wherever, whenever you rise... though we may pass, our ideas will rise to meet you. You may forever be attacking, but I promise you... you will forever fall.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Look where you stand. Sometimes, Artemis, when they must... sisters fight.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Alone? You're so stubborn, even now. I didn't see it for a long time... but your path is complimentary to mine. Not the same, not even close. But of every Amazon who lives... you are one of my closest sisters.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Human beings like to frighten themselves. To walk through halls of warped mirrors and laugh at their distorted reflections. I think they like to wonder... is that who I am? Do I really look that way? And now I wonder... have I lived so long among them that I can no longer tell the difference?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

A lasso is not a sword. It has no edged side, no blunt side -- it is a loop, a weapon with neither beginning nor end, and it uses the aggressor's own strength against him. I would happily give you a demonstration.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There is much I still must do. I must discover what has become of our homeland -- and if two gods have been exiled to this world from Olympus... we can assume they aren't the only ones.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We will follow the sun. Scour the Earth from east to west. And if I must barter my own life for it... we will find them.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Animals and plants and air and earth cannot hate. Only those who turn against their own natures -- we, humankind and godkind -- can feel hatred.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I should not let them fight. I should not let them put themselves at risk. But after so long alone, cut off from my people... it feels good not to fight alone.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I didn't know why my mother created this place. But in the years since I was born... friend or foe... I had never ignored a call for help. My mother taught me that.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

...yes, mama. I've come home.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Love is dangerous. Love is a wild thing that fights even when death is certain. Love is hope in the face of defeat. And without it... without it, we are each alone in the universe. Moving past our fellow travellers like ghosts. Love is the last fragment of the will. The one that persists after all other resources are gone.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The Gods are dead or have fled their posts. Nothing now stands between us and our worst instincts.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I don't know how to say goodbye to you.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

So strange... it was as if I drifted off for a moment into the dream realm. But someone was obviously looking out for me.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You fire on a fallen enemy? Very well-- If the corrupt will not stand down, the righteous must stand up.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I intend to use the Lasso of Truth to get answers. Now.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I, Diana, daughter of Hippolyta, throw in my gauntlet to compete in the trial! I am beholden to none... a champion for no tribe, but for all Amazons!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Being Wonder Woman is not easy. It means putting the well-being of others before yourself.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Chaos has come to Themyscira!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

All Hail Nubia, Queen of the Amazons!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

It is never too late to start over. To restore what we've lost, to create something we've never heard.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Cizko, Poison, Calculus, the Milk Company... if it's a fight they want... we'll take it to them.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The name's Wonder Woman. And I'm making it my business.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

If this is where the Gods go after death, then where do the others go? Where will I go?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There is no past without the future.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

J'onn...! Thank the Gods, I finally made it home!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

What I want is an epilogue to our latest chapter.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You... you aren't a creature? You're a man?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

...and for this next operation, you can call me Diana Prince.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I saved your life. I'm gonna save your world.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Not things. Monsters of myth!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We're the aliens here.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I'll always answer when you call.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Our shields became weapons. And they could've endangered far more than us alone.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I listened even while you threatened me! Now it's your turn to hear me out.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

This is my fight.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The story keeps changing.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Sometimes one must look in the face of fortune and say: no. Despite the odds. Against the gods. Come what may.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

...This isn't who I am. Dark and forlorn. I'll look ahead. Beyond. With those I miss -- Jason, mother, and the Amazons of Themyscira -- with me in my heart.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Miami isn't a dress code, it's a state of mind.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

If this goes badly, I can't afford to have you under his control.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

It was never about you.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We find those things that are bigger than us, Emma. We find those things and lift us up and we focus on them

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

This is a vision, Steve. Your dream. Something strange is happening... I'm as confused by it as you.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I realize now that my age doesn't define much about me. And I can choose my own story. Now I cast away fears of the unknown... and welcome the unexpected.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We will finish you if you threaten our peace.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

We can't do this as a group, we have to do this as a team.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I have heard this tale from my own mother. Perhaps she wasn't aware of the part I am to play in it. But then, so much of what I thought I knew was hidden from me. This may turn out to be another lost truth.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Do you think I'd break so easily? I know my soul, foul creature. You are darkness and lies... a nightmare with no substance!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Nightmares can be mastered. but we may be running out of time.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Sometimes there is no escape. Sometimes whatever you choose, you lose.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You are assigned to hurt the Amazons. I am obliged to protect them. I know that you and I will meet many times in the future

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

I am looking for Emelie, the woman who has killed the men. I am finding out why she has done this horrible thing.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

You have an army. And I have an Invisible Jet.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

He can't stop because he seeks out the good. That's hope.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

They say... mother... made me from... water... and clay... and... and... hope.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

My friend, my Clark. As ever, you are right. I do know better than you.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

... I do not believe you!

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

All right, Old Man. What is next?

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

Every culture tells nightmare stories of a bogeyman to scare children. The gods have Tartarus.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

The Hands that shaped our universe warned me that saving the Multiverse would come with a cost.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

-- forever -- comrades in arms.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There is a power greater than both fear and love. The stupidity of an overconfident Flash rogue.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)

There is a strength to secret identities. Diana.

--Diana of Themyscira (Prime Earth)
