Silver Surfer

In every part of the globe it is the same! Hatred, fear and unreasoning hostility have possessed men's hearts! But the Silver Surfer will have no part of it!

— Silver Surfer

Those to whom no distant horizons beckon ... for whom no challenges remain ... though they have inherited a Universe ... they possess only empty sand!

— Silver Surfer

My people have lost the spirit of high adventure ... the thrill of exploration ... the longing to see beyond the veil of knowledge!

— Silver Surfer

Let my board and me again become as one! For I must leave this place of madness!

— Silver Surfer

Now, I ride the Eternal winds once more! And none shall ever be my master!

— Silver Surfer

Paradise unearned is but a land of shadows!

— Silver Surfer

Rather let me fail ... than never to have tried at all!

— Silver Surfer

My fate is of little consequence ... if it can save the world that gave me birth! Mighty Galactus ... do but spare Zenn-La ... and I am yours.. to command!

— Silver Surfer

Where soars the Silver Surfer.... There he must soar ... alone!

— Silver Surfer

Time is long and fate is fickle ... My destiny still lies before me! And where it beckons — there shall soar the Silver Surfer!

— Silver Surfer

Why... Why must I ever behold the loveliness of Shalla-Bal in every female face I see? Will I never be free of her haunting memory... of her deathless love?

— Silver Surfer

Again you substitute force for understanding! Again you would destroy that which you cannot comprehend! ... From cradle to grave — your lives are rooted in senseless violence! Since power is your god — I'll show you power — such as you have never known!

— Silver Surfer

If die I must — let it be as I have lived — soaring swift and silent — striving for the right — no matter what the cost!

— Silver Surfer

The choice between good and evil — is made by all who live — with every single heartbeat!

— Silver Surfer

Unlike the humans, who call you beast, there is no violence in your heart. No hint of avarice, no smoldering hate! Yet man, who has won dominion over all this world, is a stranger to peace — a prisoner, caught in the web of his own nameless fears.

— Silver Surfer

Even in failure there can be Nobility! But failing to try brings only shame!

— Silver Surfer

Henceforth and forever — I am the Silver Surfer! To save our people, I have sworn to serve Galactus!

— Silver Surfer

Others may battle with victory in sight — but the Surfer still strives when all hope is gone!

— Silver Surfer

To me my board! The time has come to test Galactus anew! To see if his barrier still holds! And if it does, to try again, and again, and again — until I am free!

— Silver Surfer

Wheels within wheels! I've been tricked, duped, manipulated! And the real enemy was never Galactus or Dr. Doom — it was — Mephisto, Lord of Evil!

— Silver Surfer

You, who once called the Surfer "fool" — did you think mere cackling demons could overcome the Power Cosmic? Though I am less than fallen god, still I am more than mortal!

— Silver Surfer

Laugh, Mephisto! Gloat while you may! The evil is yours — but the triumph is mine!

— Silver Surfer

Though the one I treasure most of all is forever denied me — though sentenced to endure earthly confinement as a bird endure its cage — still my heart is light. For I have been true to my destiny! I have bested a demon and brought new life to a world! I know not what tomorrow may bring — but today — the Surfer soars!

— Silver Surfer

You'll find my power comes from within.... and is a force to be reckoned with.

— Silver Surfer

Obviously my best strategy is to wait, listen, and learn.

— Silver Surfer

Completely mad. But perhaps he did have a point. Sure, at the top of his head.

— Silver Surfer

Thanos is like no foe I have ever faced. Perhaps he operates on unheard of spectro levels. There it is!! Amazing. The technologies involved at operating at this level would tax even Galactus's scientific abilities. Yet Thanos roams here freely.

— Silver Surfer

All over the Universe! I can feel them! They're all dying! Billions upon billions of souls are blinking out of existence! ... Not one knew what struck them! Horrible! I could taste their dread and confusion!

— Silver Surfer

If sacred places are spared the ravages of war... then make all places sacred. And if the holy people are to be kept harmless from war... then make all peoples holy.

— Silver Surfer

What have my actions brought...?

— Silver Surfer

The Silver Surfer stands with humankind this day!

— Silver Surfer

Drink deep, aged one. For even you must have a limit to the power cosmic you can absorb

— Silver Surfer

All that you know is at an end.

— Silver Surfer

I am not the destroyer.

— Silver Surfer

Treasure every moment you have with her. Tell her she was right. There is always a choice.

— Silver Surfer

I will no longer serve. This is the end for us both.

— Silver Surfer
