Kingdom Hearts II (2005 Video Game)

Paul St. Peter: Xemnas

Quotes 

• Xemnas : Denizens of light, answer this: why do you hate the darkness?

  Mickey Mouse : Aw, we don't hate it. It's just kinda... scary. But the world's made of light AND darkness. You can't have one without the other, 'cause darkness is half of everything. Sorta makes ya wonder why we are scared of the dark...

  Riku : It's because of who's lurking inside it.

• Xemnas : You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light. So why is it that you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing? We who were turned away by both light and dark - never given a choice?

  Riku : That's simple. It's because you mess up our worlds.

  Xemnas : That may be... however, what other choice might we have had?

  Sora : Just give it a rest! You're Nobodies! You don't even exist! You're not sad about anything!

  Xemnas : [laughs]  Very good. You don't miss a thing. I cannot feel... sorrow... No matter what misery befalls the worlds. No matter what you think, what you feel, or how you exist.

• Xemnas : You have arrived. I've been to see him... he looks a lot like you.

  Roxas : Who are you?

  Xemnas : I'm what's left or... maybe I'm all there ever was.

  Roxas : I meant your name.

  Xemnas : My name is of no importance. What about you? Do you remember your true name?

  Roxas : My true name... is...

• Xemnas : Riku, are you sure you're not jealous of Sora?

• Xemnas : I need... more rage... I need more... hearts...

  Sora : Xemnas. There's more to a heart than just anger or hate. It's full of all kinds of feelings. Don't you remember?

  Xemnas : Unfortunately... I don't.

  [Xemnas fades away] 

• Xemnas : Hearts are power. Nothingness is eternal!

• Xemnas : [last words]  Cursed... Keyblade...

• Xemnas : I was wondering who would dare interfere with my Kingdom Hearts. And look - -here you all are. How convenient for me. Ansem the Wise... You look pathetic.

  DiZ : Have your laugh. I deserve as much for failing to see you for the fool you are.

  Xemnas : Students do take after their teachers. Only a fool would be your apprentice. After all, none of this would have happened without you. YOU are the source of all Heartless. It was your research that inspired me to go further than you ever dared.

  DiZ : I admit... my disregard brought chaos to more worlds than one. But what were YOU seeking? You erased me from the world, only to take my name and continue research better left forgotten... Is this the answer you've been looking for?

  Xemnas : All that and more. I'm carrying on what you yourself began, and I'm creating a brand new world, one heart at a time. I thought you'd praise me, but all you ever do is hold me back. I understand, though. Unlike me, you have a heart. And you're powerless to control it. Consumed, by the jealousy you feel toward the student who surpassed you.

  DiZ : Xehanort. Foolish apprentice of a foolish man. You have surpassed nothing - -only proved how little we both know. We may profess to know the heart, but its essence is beyond our reach. We're both ignorant - -as oblivious as when we began. I'm afraid that any world you try to create... Any world of yours... would be an empire of ignorance. That is why you and your creation are destined to fall!

  DiZ : We've said enough! Riku, you know what to do! King Mickey, my friend, forgive me! Farewell!

• Xemnas : [to Kingdom Hearts]  Hear me, Kingdom Hearts! It seems we must begin anew. Ah, but know this: I will give to you as many hearts as it takes. Mark my words! You can no more be complete without me than I without you. Heed me, Kingdom Hearts! Lend me your power, so that we may be complete! The power to erase the fools that hinder us.

  Mickey Mouse : Xemnas! No!

  Xemnas : Hearts quivering with hatred...

  Sora : Xemnas! Don't!

  Xemnas : Hearts burning with rage...

  Donald Duck : You'll never win!

  Xemnas : Hearts scarred by envy... That fool Ansem said the heart's true nature was beyond his understanding. Buts it's not beyond mine! Hearts are the source of all power!

  [Xemnas disappears into Kingdom Hearts] 

• Xemnas : You are the source of all heartless.

• Xemnas : Heroes from the realm of light, I will not allow it to end this way - not yet. If light and darkness are eternal, surely we nothings are the same! Eternal!

  Riku : You're right. Light and darkness are eternal. Nothing probably goes forever, too. But, guess what Xemnas?

  Sora : That doesn't mean YOU'RE eternal!

  Xemnas : [laughs]  No more eternal than that radiance of yours...

• Xemnas : Anger and hate are supreme.

• Xemnas : Ansem the Wise... you look pathetic.

• Xemnas : I'm creating a brand new world, one heart at a time.

• Saïx : Xemnas, is Kingdom Hearts ready?

  Xemnas : Almost.

  Saïx : So I can end this charade?

  Xemnas : Indeed.

  Saïx : Oh how I've waited to hear that.

• Xemnas : Ansem the wise... you look pathetic...

• Xemnas : Sora, are you sure you can trust Riku?

• Xemnas : Hear me Kingdom Hearts it seems we must begin anew. Ah, but know this. I will give to you as many hearts as it takes. Mark my words! You can no longer be complete without me than I without you. Heed me Kingdom Hearts! Lend me your power so we may be complete! The power to erase the fools that hinder us.
