Helen Slater: Lara-El

Quotes 

• Lara : My son, I only had the joy for knowing you a few weeks. I wish I could be with you always to guide you and protect you.

  Jor-El : We don't have much time.

  Lara : My dearest Kal-El, our love will always be with you. I can already see you carry within your father's independent spirit.

  Jor-El : But more importantly, your mother's never-ending bravery and her compassionate heart.

  Lara : Your father tells me the new world you're journeying to, Earth, is full of complicated beings capable of great emotion. My wish is for you to live a full and wonderful life, but I need you to know, you were born of a great love. And your brilliant father was devised a way for you to carry on that love without us.

  Jor-El : The ship I designed to carry you to your destiny can only hold one Kryptonian - one who has so much potential - so unlike your father.

  Lara : No.

  Jor-El : Your mother and I cannot come with you. To do so would burden your innocent soul with our frailties and failures. But you have within you the best of both of us. And I am sending you all of my knowledge and none of my ego or regrets. They will die with me here on Krypton. Whatever trials I put you through, I will never lose faith in you.

  Lara : [whispers to Jor-El]  Quickly, before it's too late. We may not have been able to save our planet...

  Jor-El : But we are confident you will become Earth's greatest savior. And never doubt that, just as you're a part of us, we will always be a part of you. Farewell, my son.
