— You big baby.
— We're moving.
— I'm gonna get you some help, Grace.

Look, Sully. Sully. Just find out what the blue monkeys want. You know, I mean, we try to give them medicine, education, roads. But no, no, no, they like mud. And that wouldn't bother me, it's just that they're... Their damn village happens to be resting on the richest unobtanium deposit within 200 klicks in any direction.

That is shahaylu. The bond. Feel her. Feel her heartbeat. Her breath. Feel her strong legs. You may tell her what to do. Inside. For now, say where to go.

— Look, wait up, I just wanted to say thanks for killing those things.
— Don't thank. You don't thank for this. This is sad. Very sad only.

The wealth of this world isn't in the ground. It's all around us. The Na'vi know that, and they are fighting to defend it. If you want to share this world with them,
you need to understand them.
