Master Chief
- [last lines]
- Master Chief: This is Spartan 117! Can anyone read me? Over.
- Lord Hood: Isolate that signal! Master Chief, mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?
- Master Chief: Sir. Finishing this fight.
- Cortana: [after seeing Gravemind] What... is that?
- Gravemind: I... I am a monument to all your sins...
- [the Arbiter struggles]
- Master Chief: Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.
- Arbiter: Demon!
- Gravemind: This one is machine and nerve and has its mind concluded; this one is but flesh and faith and is the more deluded...
- Arbiter: Kill me or release me, parasite. But do not waste my time with talk!
- Gravemind: There is much talk... and I have listened through rock and metal and time... Now I shall talk and you shall listen...
- 2401 Penitent Tangent: Greetings! I am 2401 Penitent Tangent, I am the monitor of installation 05...
- Prophet of Regret: And I am the Prophet of Regret, Council of most high hierarch of the Covenant!
- 2401 Penitent Tangent: [looks at Master Chief] A reclaimer, here? At last! We have much to do! This facility must be activated if we are to control this outbreak!
- Prophet of Regret: Stay where you are! Nothing can be done until my sermon is complete!
- 2401 Penitent Tangent: Not true! This installation has a successful utilization record of 1.2 trillion simulated and 1 actual. It is ready to fire on demand.
- Prophet of Regret: Of all the objects that our Lords left behind, there are none so worthless as these Oracles! They know nothing of the Great Journey!
- 2401 Penitent Tangent: And you know nothing about containment! You have demonstrated complete disregard for even the most basic protocols!
- Gravemind: This one's Containment, and this one's Great Journey are the same... Your prophets have promised you freedom from a doomed existence, but you will find no salvation on this ring. Those that built this place knew what they wrought. Do not mistake their intent or all will perish as they did before.
- Master Chief: This thing is right; Halo is a weapon. Your prophets are making a big mistake.
- Arbiter: Your ignorance already destroyed one of the sacred rings, Demon. It shall not harm another!
- Gravemind: If you will not hear the truth, then I will show it to you.
- [to the Chief]
- Gravemind: You will search one likely spot...
- [to the Arbiter]
- Gravemind: And you will search another. Fate may have placed us as foes, but this ring will make us brothers.
- Master Chief: After I take care of Truth...
- Cortana: Don't make a girl a promise if you know you can't keep it.
- Cortana: [before Master Chief jumps out the space station airlock with a bomb] Just one question: What if we miss?
- Master Chief: I won't.
- Master Chief: Sir, request permission to leave the station.
- Lord Hood: For what purpose, Master Chief?
- Master Chief: To give the Covenant back their bomb.
- Lord Hood: Permission granted.
- Cortana: Wait! Stop! That's what I thought he said!
- Master Chief: What?
- Cortana: That Prophet, he's going to activate Halo!
- Master Chief: Are you sure?
- Prophet of Regret: [Cortana playing back the Prophet's comments] I shall light this holy ring, release it's cleansing flame, and burn a path into the divine beyond!
- Cortana: Pretty much.
- Cortana: I know what you're thinking, and it's crazy.
- Master Chief: So, stay here.
- Cortana: Unfortunately for us both, I like crazy.
- The Master Chief: [after deactivating the bomb] How much time was left?
- Cortana: You don't wanna know.
- [being congratulated for their work on Halo]
- Master Chief: You told me there wouldn't be any cameras.
- Sgt. Johnson: And you told me you were gonna wear something nice.
