Famous Dragonball Quotes

Here are a selection of what I think are by far the best DBZ quotes. They are all pretty good, some funny, some just downright cool. I will be updating this section constantly, what with all the cool one-liners that go on in the series, so keep checking back. 

At the end of each quote, on the next line is a comment, beginning with a '~', this is my comment on it. All quotes are in chronological order of the saga/movie/special that they're in. Now read on....

Saiyan Saga

Gohan (Bursting out of the space pod): Leave my dad alone! 
~ You tell them Gohan!

Piccolo (To the saiyans): Bring it on!
~ That's it Piccolo, stand up to those goons!

Vegeta (After Nappa blows Tien's arm off): Now he's unarmed
~ Heh, always the comedian.

Gohan (To Nappa): You smell of toenails!
~ I'm sure that hurt his feelings greatly!

Frieza Saga

Krillen (Before Guru awakens his hidden powers): I don't have any special powers. Hell, if I had special powers, I'd have a head full of hair!
~ That is probably true cueball! Heh, that quote cracks me up.

Gohan (when Ginyu Force are preparing to fight them): We've been kidnapped by a bunch of idiots  
~ You tell it like it is brother!

Guldo: I knew that I shouldn't have gone on that Chili dogs diet!
~ Serves you right fat boy! 

Piccolo (After fusing with Nail): Yes! I feel great! I can do this! Yes! I can win!
~ And so he did...for a while.

Vegeta: What's wrong Frieza? Is your brain another one of your weak and underused muscles?
~ Don't even go there!

Frieza (Said it to both Vegeta and Goku): Stupid monkey!
~ I suppose that's the most damaging insult we're going to hear in Funimations version, but its still pretty good.

Frieza: What...are...you?
Goku: I am a saiyan warrior!

~ Yes Goku, and a proud one at that. This was when Goku finally realized his heritage.

Goku (To Frieza after he went SSJ): Ally to good, nightmare to you!
~ Goku's speech always goes through my mind. One of the best ever in DBZ.

Goku (To Frieza): This ends now! 
~ How many times have we heard that one?

Frieza: Answer me!
Goku: You didn't say please.
~ Heh, if that doesn't annoy him, nothing will!

Frieza (To Goku): You think this is funny, toying with me?
Goku: No Frieza, there's nothing funny about it.
~ This shows Goku's toughness. It was pretty funny when Goku was zipping about the place to anger Frieza.

Vegeta (During flashback scene): Strength is the only thing that means anything to me!
~ He's stuck by that statement ever since he said it!

Goku: I would rather be a brainless monkey than a heartless monster.
~ You tell him!

Goku (Shouting at Frieza): I'm going to slap some sense into you!
~ And so he did, quite literally.

Goku (To Frieza after winding him): Your pride has been damaged. You have challenged and lost, and worst of all, it was to a mere monkey, right?
~ Rubbing it in, how cool is that!

Goku (To Frieza whilst he is begging): How many people begged for their lives before you killed them anyway? Did you show mercy when I asked you to spare my best friend Krillen?!
~ Yeah, you tell him! Although...Goku did in fact spare Frieza's life after he said this.

Trunks Saga

Trunks (To King Cold): You should know that the sword doesn't make the man.
~ It's true. One of my favourite quotes this is.

Vegeta (To Trunks): What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a pink shirt before?
~ Heh, cracks me up every time I think about it. 

Trunks (To Goku): You're good...no, you're great!
~ He's right you know. Goku is the man!

Movie 1

Garlic JR: Everything will be sucked into the deadzone...including you! You will all be locked away in total darkness for the rest of eternity, just as my father was!
~ How ironic...turned out it didn't work though did it now?

Gohan (Before knocking Garlic JR into the deadzone): Daddy!
~ Strong words there young one!

Nikki (Trying to stop Gohan from eating alcoholic fruit, to no avail though): Wait, kids aren't meant to eat that, because they...see...things...
~ Too late! Heh, Gohan goes into a wacky song after this, which may be pretty boring, but it is also hilarious!

Ginger: Hey kid, we defeated Piccolo too you know! 
Gohan: You...you did?
Nikki: Yeah, it was a piece of cake!
~ Oh dear. Looks like Goku has got some competition!

Kami (To Garlic JR): No matter what, I'm going to stop you.
~ Brave words Kami, and he even backed them up to, despite getting his head kicked in!

Movie 2

Roshi: There was one thing that I did like about that Dr Willow fellow - He thought that I was the strongest man in the world.
Bulma: I guess no one told him that you're just a dirty old man.
_{~ Heh, one of the funniest quotes ever.}

_{Chi-Chi: That's strange, he never used to fall asleep while he was studying before. I hope he's alright...Oh no, my little boy's becoming a delinquent right before my very own eyes
~ Talk about an obsessive mother!}

_{Oolong: This is a bit of a harsh punishment just for breaking the dragon radar! Now why the heck do I have to cook dinner? Just because that darn Bulma's such a lousy cook that I gotta do this!
Bulma (Popping up): Did you say something?
~ Busted!}

Chi-Chi Sensing Gohan sneaking off): Where are you going?
Gohan: Er...I gotta pee?
Chi-Chi: That bathrooms not that way!
~ Can't sneak anything past that woman!

Dr Willow's Assistant: And now Master Roshi, we will see if you really are the most powerful fighter in the world!
Roshi: What are you trying to do? Flatter me?
~ Maybe Roshi, maybe.

Movie 4

Lord Slug: How long will it take?
Kakuja: About 10 days
Lord Slug (Charging up energy in his hand): How long Kakuja?
Kakuja: Yes sir, I'll have it done in three days
~ Amazing how the intimidating presence of an incredibly tough guy can make you change your mind!

Piccolo (Speaking to one of Lord Slugs top Henchmen): Don't make light of us, you small fries.
~ That managed to anger him...a lot!

Krillen (After Goku has beaten everyone up, leaving him watching from the sidelines): I didn't even get a chance!
~ Poor you Krillen. I bet you would have beat them all up too wouldn't you! *Cough cough*

Krillen (Charging in at Lord Slug): Now it's my turn Goku, I'll take care of him
Goku: Wait, he's not like...
Krillen (After getting swatted away by one of Lord Slugs hands into oblivion): Why me?!
~ Heh, cracks me up whenever he says this, and he does it in a lot of the movies!

Lord Slug (After blasting Goku with a mega-powerful attack): It's over!
Goku (Emerging from the smoke): Not yet.
~ Amazing! This looked incredibly cool. 

Piccolo (After ripping his ears off): Gohan, whistle! Whistle like you did the other day!
~ Sacrifices must be made.

Lord Slug (After Gohan whistles, and he falls down to his feet): You bastard! That's why you ripped your ears off!
King Kai (Speaking from heaven): I see, just as humans cringe at the sound of high pitched screeching, the sound waves of a human whistling must affect a Namek in the same way! The whistling must be causing him unbearable pain!    
~ Did the fact that he was on the floor yelling in agony give it away at all Kai?

Piccolo (After giving all his energy to Goku): I'll leave it to you Goku.
Goku: Piccolo!...I'll make the most of your power.
~ And he did, beating the Super Namek.

Krillen (To Yajirobe): You hid yourself away didn't you?
~ Course he did! What else could we expect from good old Yajirobe!

Movie 5

Karin (To Gohan, letting him have the senzu beans): I'm aware of your fathers critical situation, so I'll make an exception just this once.
Yajirobe (Sarcastically, to Karin): Gee, you're so compassionate!
~ Heh, you tell the old, whining cat, Yaj!

Kula (To Goku mockingly): You call that fighting? Can't you hit any harder? 
~ He speaks pretty tough, and can back it all up.

Kula: I have powers far greater than my brother Frieza ever possessed! Behold, the transformation of Kula!
~ It was an ace transformation too!

Goku (To Kula after he had just killed an innocent living thing): You have no right to take the life of any living creature!
~ That's probably true...

Movie 6

Piccolo (After throwing off weighted clothes): Now I'm ready!
~ This made a surprisingly big difference.

Krillen (After attacking a group of robots): Aw man, I think I broke my fingers! Ow, my hand! Ow, my foot! It hurts!
~ Krillen, you are indeed a fool, albeit a funny one.

Goku (Against a group of robotic Kula's, after getting pasted by one of them): I won't give up...
Vegeta: Neither will I...
~ Good to hear. They collapsed shortly afterwards.

Goku (To Kula): You won't get away with this!
Kula: I already have!
~ Typical evil bad guy comment.

Movie 12

Vegeta: I'd rather die than fuse with you!
Goku: Vegeta, you're already dead!
~ Heh, this ranks among my favourite quote of all time.

Fat Gogetta (After getting beat up by Janemba): Hey bastard! Today we will overlook your crime. We won't tolerate your evil a second time!
~ Heh, another funny one.

Vegeta (After breaking up from the fusion of Fat Gogetta): Kakarot, what kind of fusion was that? If we weren't so incredibly weak then I'd say you deceived me!
Goku: I didn't expect that..
Vegeta: Don't bother me with those kinds of victories!
~ Heh, yet another humorous quote.

Gohan (Confronting Frieza): Evil everywhere, shall not be forgotten, I am Son Gohan!
Videl (Clapping): Gohan, that was well done!
~ Ok...*Backs slowly away*

Frieza (Evilly, Before Gohan killed him in one shot): Defeat from the father in return for the son.
~ Not going to happen Frieza. Gohan's too strong to be beaten by the likes of you!

Mr. Satan (To all of the zombies plaguing the town): the worlds greatest hero, Mister Satan, would like to take on every one of you! The TV cameras didn't come. Where could they be? Damn. It can't be helped, I'll call them about everything later.
~ Ah well, you win some, you lose some, I'm sure you'll get credit for it in the end Satan, you always do!

Trunks: Goten, hurry up!
Goten (Before putting a golf ball in the hole): Wait, I'm just pulling a trick!
Golfer (Arriving after Goten and Trunks had gone): Wow! A hole in one! How did I do that?
~ I wonder, I wonder.

Goten: Shenron is stingy!
~ Trunks grabbed him and desperately tried to shut him up after this. Another hilarious quote.

Goten: Trunks..
Trunks: Goten, you'll have time to complain later!
~ You know him too well.

Gogetta: I am not Goku nor Vegeta. I am the instrument of your defeat.
~ A fantastic one liner!

Vegeta: Kakarotto...sorry about having to fuse twice.
~ What? Vegeta...apologizing? It can't be!

Shenron: Do you have a wish yet?
~ Heh, impatient sod.

Movie 13

Gohan and Videl: As long as crime exists, the fire of justice shall continue to burn. 
Gohan: I am the great saiyaman 1! 
Videl: And I am the great saiyaman 2!
Gohan and Videl: Here we come again!
Gohan (To himself): I'm so cool
~ Really Gohan? I thought you just made a complete idiot of yourself!

Sorcerer: I wish for you to unlock this oracle and release Tapion the brave from it.
Shenron: That will be a piece of cake!
~ Cocky. Thinks just because he can grant wished he can boast about it! Bah! I could do that...I err...just don't want to.

SSJ Vegeta (To the monster, upon entering the scene): You fucking bastard! You dare destroy my house? Now you've really pissed me off! Fuck you! 
~ And this will be bought over to America? I don't think so for some reason.

SSJ3 Goku (To the really big, hard monster): That's nothing, your blows don't even bother me.
~ I think that this one was a bit of a lie, because he could hardly stay afloat after being hit.

Gotenks (To the monster upon beating it up): Too weak!
~ Heh, these two kids combined are fantastic!

SSJ3 Goku: If I can't do it, then who else can! Exploding Dragon Fist!
~ And thus ended the evil monster.

Bardock Special

A Warrior From The Planet Kanassa (After hitting Bardock in the neck, then getting his life blasted out of him): Listen, I just gave you the power to see into the future!

You should be able to see the future of your descendants. 

I'll tell you know that you have a cursed future. Like my people, you are destined to become extinct! Suffer from seeing your peoples future!
~ These visions tormented him for the rest of his short lived life.

Bardock's Friend (After seeing Bardock kill the Kanassa Warrior who attacked him): We saiyans are matchless. What could cause us trouble?
~ If only you knew my friend.

Doctor (Referring to Bardock): Even though he's just a low-level soldier, he comes back from every mission half-dead!
~ So? Doesn't that mean he'll be stronger?

Toma (Just before dying, to Bardock): Listen, go to the planet Vegeta, and gather our men...to kill Frieza...Show him the strength of the saiyan people.
~ And so he did, or at least tried to.

One Of Dodoria's henchmen (After blasting, and missing Bardock, who then seems to disappear else-where on the battlefield): The bastard! Where's he gone?!
~ Now now, no need to use bad language just because you know that you'll lose.

Bardock (After having a flashback in the middle of a battle and getting beat up because of it): Damn, what's going on in my mind?
~ This got his head kicked in. Got to see some cool scenes from Goku vs. Vegeta though.

Dodoria (Thinking that he has killed Bardock): That was rather quick. I could have played around with him a little longer.
~ You should have made sure he was dead. But no...you had to assume you fat pink pile of blubber!

Guard 1: Are you alright Bardock?
Guard 2 (Gesturing towards blood-riddled space pod): He's far from alright, look at this.
~ That's true, he was almost dead!

Bardock (Bursting into a room full of saiyans): Everyone come with me...to kill Frieza!
~ This got a great response (That was sarcasm by the way)

Bardock (After bursting into a saiyan-filled canteen): Frieza is trying to kill all of us and destroy the planet Vegeta.
Anonymous saiyan: Destroy this planet? Are you alright? Pull yourself together Bardock. Frieza would never do such a thing! Were you dreaming or something?
Bardock: Damn idiots! DAMN YOU! I don't need you! You can all go to hell!
~ That shut them all up.

Bardock (To Frieza): Yes, this will change everything - The destiny of planet Vegeta…The destiny of myself...Kakarotto’s destiny...and your destiny! 
~ One of my favourite quotes of all time.

_{Frieza (After blowing up the planet Vegeta): Wonderful! Look Zarbon, Dodoria, what beautiful fireworks!
~ Sounds like something that a poof would say to me.}

Trunks Special

Android #17 (To terrified civilians): I will give you 10 seconds to run as fast as you can.
Android #18: I don't think it will do you any good though.
~ And guess what? It didn't.

Shop Clerk (Cowering in the corner from #18): Please, spare my life! You can take anything you want!
~ Doesn't he realize that the bad guys always kill people no matter what? He should have tried to run.

Android #18 (After #17 blows up a clothes shop): Ah damn. Why did you do that number 17? I told you not to destroy any clothes shops!
~ Yeah, nice one #17! Now where's #18 going to get her fashion accessories from! Idiot.

Android #17 (Running after pedestrians in his car): You unlucky bastards are straight on your way to hell!
~ That's not playing very nice now, is it?

Trunks: I can't stand sitting down and letting them do this! I wish I was strong enough to beat them! Gohan, please train me.
~ And so he did.

Gohan (After finishing a whole bowl of food in literally seconds): More please!
~ Heh, just like his dad!

Ox King (Referring to the androids): They showed up again. I think about half the people on Earth have been killed. Everyone else in in hiding!
~ Things don't seem to be looking too good.

Gohan (Talking about Trunks): I hope he can become greater than me.....and defeat the androids.
~ And guess what? He did...eventually.

Security Guard (After the androids have got onto the rollercoaster): Hey, you have to wait in line!
Android #18: Wait in line? I don't think so.
Security Guard: Please, just get in line.
Android #18 (To #17 before blasting the guard into smithereens): I don't like him.
~ Shouldn't have argued pal.

Gohan (Injured really badly with only one arm): The last senzu. Trunks...you take it.
~ And because of that, Gohan lost his arm. Very noble though.

Gohan (In bed, covered in bandages, just starting to stir from unconsciousness): Damn...robots!
~ Well, at least he hasn't lost his memory.

Android #18: Stop already #17. The city has been destroyed, and there's no one left alive. Let's go home.
~ Aw, your so compassionate. No need for overkill!

Android #18 (After #17 has been kicked through a wall by Gohan, tearing his clothes): You look funny number 17!
~ #17 wasn't too happy, I can tell you! His clothes were ruined!

10th Anniversary Special

Pan: Your real strength is your bravery
~ Which is in a way, fairly true.

Goku Jr. (To Pack after they both weed off a riverbank): You got it on yourself!
~ Run Goku, run!

Goku Jr. (Upset): Grandma, I really am a coward.
~ Na your not man! Cheer up!

Goku Jr. (Running away from Giant Monster Fish thing): I'm scared, I'm scared! No, I mustn't be scared anymore. I must be brave!
~ That's the spirit! 

Goku Jr. (Pulling a moony at all the bad guys): Kiss my ass!
Big Giant Chicken Monster (Flying in at Goku Jr.): You little shit!
~ Heh, the moony gag, a timeless classic.

Demon Lord Yao (To bad guys): You cant even get a little kid. You are so pathetic!
~ Stupid bad guys. All cowered in fear from this guy.

Demon Lord Yao (To Goku Jr.): I will eat you!
~ Nice way of greeting someone.

Goku Jr. (After going SSJ): I won't let you hurt anybody anymore! I'll save everyone!
~ Cheesy, but I like it.

Goku Jr. (To solitary dragonball): Why? Why won't you grant my wish! Damn! I don't know why I came here!
Goku: You need to collect all 7.
~ Wise words from an experienced warrior.

Goku (To Goku Jr.): I am your great, great, great...how many greats would that be?
~ You noggin! Heh, seriously, this one is pretty funny. The confused look on Goku's face is hilarious!

Goku Jr. (To Goku): Am I also brave?
Goku: Of course you are! You're my grandchildren's grandchildren's...anyway, you are Son Goku.
~ Here we go again...
