*"Nothing is decided. This isn't over. It will never be over." - refusing to give up after the Primordial renders judgment on the Forerunners.

==[[Halo 4]]==

*"So fades the great harvest of my betrayal. Even [[Covenant remnant|these beasts]] recognized what you were oblivious to, human. Your nobility has blinded you, as ever. The Librarian left little to chance, didn't she? Turning my [[Promethean|own guardians]]... [[Requiem|my own world]]... against me. But what hubris to believe she could protect her pets from me forever. If you haven't mastered even these primitives, then man has not attained the Mantle. Your ascendance may yet be prevented. Time was your ally, human, but now it has abandoned you. The Forerunners... have returned." - Introductory speech to [[John-117]] upon waking up from his Cryptum on Requiem.

*"Even in death, her meddling continues." - When discovering the Librarian's archived personality conversing with John-117.

*"Relinquish your contact, essence!" - As the Librarian's personality imprint continues to instruct John.

*"You persist too long after your own defeat. Come then, warrior. Have your resolution." - When facing John-117 aboard his ship.

*"So misguided. Humanity's imprisonment... is a kindness." - As he prepares to kill John-117.

*"Your compassion for mankind is misplaced." - To [[Cortana]] before she restrains the Didact.

*"In this hour of victory, we taste only defeat. I ask, why? We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists. The roots of the galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms... And the impervious shelter beneath which it has prospered. I stand before you, accused of the sin of ensuring Forerunner ascendancy. Of attempting to save us from this fate where we are forced to... recede. Humanity stands as the greatest threat in the galaxy. Refusing to eradicate them is a fool's gambit. We squander eons in the darkness, while they seize our triumphs for their own. The Mantle of responsibility for all things belongs to Forerunners alone. Think of my acts as you will. But do not doubt the reality: the Reclamation... has already begun. And we are hopeless to stop it." - Epilogue speech.
