All that you know is at an end. — Silver Surfer

"Completely mad. But perhaps he did have a point. Sure, at the top of his head. Was that a joke?"

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

"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 — Ill show you power — such as you have never known!"

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

"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!"

"Paradise unearned is but a land of shadows!"
