Quotes 

• Wonder Woman : Oh, crap.

• Wonder Woman : I didn't need you to save me. I needed you to stop Ares.

  Steve Trevor : Hey, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be here right now.

  Wonder Woman : I'm an Amazon, Steve. We're prepared from birth to give our lives in battle. I knew what the consequences were going in to this mission. I bet you would have acted differently, if I were a man.

  Steve Trevor : Oh, playing the sex card again, are you? You know what? I've had just about enough of listening to you go on about how terrible men are.

  Wonder Woman : Does the truth hurt, Steve?

  Steve Trevor : News flash: The Amazons ain't so perfect either. You act brave, but cutting yourselves off from the outside world was cowardly. Not to mention stupid. Like less communication between men and women is what the world needed.

  Wonder Woman : How dare you?

  Steve Trevor : No! I'm not done. You met your first man, what, like 15 minutes ago. And you think you have us all figured out. Well, I'm sorry, but not everything a man does is to further some misogynistic agenda. We don't hold doors open or pull out chairs for women because we're trying to keep you down. And I didn't save you because I thought were some damsel in distress. I saved you because... Because I care about you, Diana. And I'm not gonna abandon a friend in need, man or woman.

  Wonder Woman : You should have saved the world, instead of me...

  Steve Trevor : Maybe I figured the world's not worth saving if you're not in it.

  [Cheetah appears robbing a bank] 

  Wonder Woman : [to Steve]  I guess I'll see you at your apartment.

  [runs off] 

  Col. Steve Trevor : Trevor: Call if you're gonna be late! I don't want dinner getting cold!

  Little Girl : Look! It's Wonder Woman!

• [Steve Trevor opens a taxi for Diana] 

  Wonder Woman : I lift cars. I can lift car-door handles.

  Col. Steve Trevor : We talked about this, angel.

  Wonder Woman : I know. Sorry.

  [puts on a playful act] 

  Wonder Woman : Oh, thank you, Stevie. You're such a gentleman.

• Wonder Woman : [to Ares]  Well, I have learned one thing. It's not polite to hit a lady.

• Wonder Woman : Surrender. You cannot escape.

  Steve Trevor : Oh, I don't know about that, angel. I've made a hobby out of fleeing chasing women.

• Wonder Woman : It's all true, isn't it, Steve? Everything my mother warned me about man's world is true. She even told me you'd try to seduce me, and I, like a fool, told her, "For now, let's only expect the best from the pilot." You tried to get me drunk. As if you could out drink an Amazon, you pathetic lightweight.

  Col. Steve Trevor : [Sees thugs approaching]  Oh, crap.

  Wonder Woman : [Unaware of the thugs]  Yes, I knew exactly what you were trying to do. And please don't use that language around me.

• Alexa : [as neighing horse rears back]  Perhaps you would be better served by a less restless mare, Princess?

  Wonder Woman : She'll be fine once I run it out of her. She's just been cooped up in the stable too long.

  Alexa : [cooing voice, to the horse:]  I know just how you feel. We comb you. We feed you till you're full. We give you everything you could possibly need, and yet all you want is to run free, isn't it?

  [to Diana, who's mounting the horse;] 

  Alexa : Off to explore?

  Wonder Woman : I doubt there's an inch of this island left for me to explore. Care to join me?

  Alexa : Thank you. But you know I prefer the excitement of a good book.

• Wonder Woman : Remarkable. The Advanced brainwashing that has been perpetuated upon the females of your culture. Raised from birth to believe they're not strong enough to compete with the boys. And then as adults, taught to trade on their very femininity.

• Wonder Woman : [casually twirling her spear]  You know, Artemis, I found myself saying a little prayer for you last night.

  Artemis : Did you, Diana? How kind.

  Wonder Woman : Yes, I prayed that Apollo would inspire you with a strategy that might end your rather long string of defeats at my hand.

  [with her spear, Artemis lunges furiously at her] 

  Artemis : [gains upper hand]  Praise Apollo.

  Wonder Woman : [knocks down her opponent, has her foot on her throat]  Obviously, I'm not praying hard enough.

  Artemis : [seethes]  If you were not the Queen's daughter...

  Hippolyta : [descending steps behind sparring rivals]  Well done, Diana. But be kind to Artemis. Believe it or not, there was a time she was the fiercest warrior among us.

  Artemis : [stands up]  And, still would be, given the chance in a real battle.

  Hippolyta : Then forgive me, Artemis, if I am grateful that you will never be afforded that chance.

  Wonder Woman : If that is indeed true, Mother, then what is the point of all this training? That is, other than to humble Artemis from time to time.

  Hippolyta : We train because we must always remain vigilant, Diana. I once let my guard down and paid a terrible price.

  Alexa : But, my Queen, letting down our guard is precisely what we must do.

  [snaps shut her book of wisdoms] 

  Alexa : And now, before yet another century passes, is the time to re-engage ourselves with the old world. Even if only to add some new material to our library.

  Wonder Woman : Perhaps Alexa's right. Is it not possible man's world has changed for the better?

  Hippolyta : [unswayed, and can show them a bad example of mankind]  Follow me, child.

• Hippolyta : [removes Lasso of Truth]  This pilot poses no threat to our people. Therefore it is our duty to see him safely returned to the outside world.

  Wonder Woman : I wanna be the one to take him back, Mother.

  Col. Steve Trevor : [dares to speak]  Seconded.

  Hippolyta : You do not have the experience necessary to lead such a mission.

• Col. Steve Trevor : So what about all that stuff you said about bringing our two worlds together?

  Wonder Woman : Dreams of a naive girl.

• Wonder Woman : Whatever happens, don't let Ares get past the gates!

  Col. Steve Trevor : No problem, angel! Leave it to me!

• Col. Steve Trevor : [in front of computer screen]  Tell me, what exactly are we up against with this guy?

  Wonder Woman : [leans in over Steve's shoulder]  Imagine a god whose sole mission is to propagate terror to incite eternal war and fan the flames of hate...

  [Steve's nose twitches as he smells something nice] 

  Wonder Woman : A god who won't stop until the Earth's populace, Amazon and outsider alike, lies murdered in a battlefield grave.

  Col. Steve Trevor : You smell good.

  Wonder Woman : Must you flirt?

  Col. Steve Trevor : It's only natural.

  Wonder Woman : [snaps]  Suppress it!

  Col. Steve Trevor : [attention back to screen]  Now this is interesting. The number of violent incidents increased dramatically in the area. A car bomb in Turkey, a workplace shooting in Greece, a farmer kills his family in Crete.

  Wonder Woman : Proximity to Ares literally inspires acts of rage in the hearts of those gripped by fear and anger.

  Col. Steve Trevor : This might be the break we need. Eventually a pattern will form that will allow us to pinpoint his exact location.

  Wonder Woman : So for now, we wait.

  Col. Steve Trevor : You know, since this could be the last time you get to see the outside world... maybe you should take in some sights before you have to return to Chastity Belt Island.

  Wonder Woman : Themiskira. What did you have in mind?

• Wonder Woman : [facing her foe, wielding sword]  Shall we? Mother tells me you're a terrific dancer!

  [decimates his advance guard] 

  Ares : Darn. Apparently someone wants to cut in.

  Wonder Woman : You're not going to conquer man, Ares. The Amazons will never let you!
