Avatar The Last Airbender Quotes
My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, only he could stop the ruthless firebenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years have passed and the Fire Nation is nearing victory in the war. Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help fight against the Fire Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe. Some people believe that the Avatar was never reborn into the Air Nomads and that the cycle is broken, but I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow...the Avatar will return to save the world.

[sarcastically, after Aang tells him about his flying bison] Right, and this is Katara, my flying sister.
[to Katara] Come... closer... closer... Will you go penguin sledding with me?
[to Katara] If you want to be a bender, you have to let go of fear.
[to Aang, who is playing around] Stop! Stop it right now! What's wrong with you? We don't have time for fun and games with the war going on.
[after Zuko calls him a child] Well, you're just a teenager.
*after meeting Aang for the first time* Good news for the Fire Lord. The nation's greatest threat is just a little kid.
[to himself as he chops at the ice] I'm just a guy with a boomerang. I didn't ask for all this flying and magic.
*after Zuko defeats Zhao* So this is how the great Commander Zhao acts in defeat? Disgraceful. Even in exile, my nephew is more honorable than you. Thanks again for the tea. It was delicious. [Iroh and Zuko leaves]
This whole Avatar thing... maybe the monks made a mistake.
Simple girls are better at fixing pants than guys, and guys are better at hunting and fighting and stuff like that. It's just the natural order of things.
Relax, Sokka. Where we're going, you won't need any pants!
*referring to Sokka* He's just upset because a bunch of girls kicked his butt yesterday.
There's an airbender in our presence and not just any airbender, the Avatar! Now what do you have to say for yourself, Mr. Pipinpadaloxicopolis?!
There wouldn't have been a bright future if I had died or I had been the only one to survive.
