John Connor
Share this quote on facebook
The future has not been written. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. I wish I could believe that. My name is John Connor. They tried to murder me before I was born. When I was 13, they tried again. Machines from the future. Terminators. All my life my mother told me the storm was coming - Judgment Day, the beginning of a war between man and machines. Three billion lives were vanished in an instant. And I would lead what was left of the human race to ultimate victory. It hasn’t happened, no bombs fell, computers didn’t take control. We stopped Judgment Day. I should feel safe. But I don’t. So I live off the grid, no phone, no address. No one and nothing can find me. I’ve erased all connections to the past. But as hard as I try, I can't erase my dreams. My nightmares.

[
last lines] By the time SkyNet became self-aware it had spread into millions of computer servers all across the planet. Ordinary computers in office buildings, dorm rooms, everywhere. It was software, in cyberspace. There was no system core. It could not be shut down. The attack began at 6:18 P.M. just as he said it would. Judgment Day. The day the human race was nearly destroyed by the weapons they built to protect themselves. I should have realized our destiny was never to stop Judgment Day; it was merely to survive it. Together. The Terminator knew. He tried to tell us, but I didn't want to hear it. Maybe the future has been written. I don't know. All I know is what the Terminator taught me. Never stop fighting. And I never will. The battle has just begun.

Terminator: T-X is designed for extreme combat, driven by a plasma reactor and equipped with on-board weapons. Its arsenal includes nano-technological transjectors.
John: Meaning...?
Terminator: It can control other machines. Its body chassis is heavily armored and hardened to withstand external attack.
John: You'll find a way to destroy her.
Terminator: Unlikely. I'm an obsolete design. T-X is faster, more powerful and more intelligent. It's a far more effective killing machine.
John: Oh, great. That's great.
Terminator: My presence in this timeline has been anticipated. T-X is designed to terminate other cybernetic organisms.
John: So she's an Anti-Terminator... Terminator? You've gotta be shitting me.
Terminator: No, I am not shitting you.

Terminator: You are John Connor.
John: Christ! My mom fed me that bullshit since the cradle! Look at me! I'm no leader! I never was! I'm never gonna...

Terminator: You're right. You're not the one I want. I'm wasting my time.
John: Fuck you! You fucking machine!

[releases John] Better.
John: You were just dicking with me?!
Terminator: Anger is more useful than despair.

[John asks the Terminator about the revelation that Kate is actually his future wife]
John: Are you sure about this... me and her?

"In one word : Great. There was a small part of me that hoped it wasn't good - but another part of me hope'd it succeeded. And it did. And I'm so glad it did. Jonathon's made a great movie. Arnold's in great form. I really like what he's done with it". If he had done it, would he have handled it differently: "Yes. That's only natural. I mightn't have structrued it the same, nor may I have ended it the same way - but coming in where he has, such a hard thing to do, and I give Jonathan points for it".
