"Before I joined the service, I'd never left my home planet. Now I see a new planet almost every day. Makes me appreciate what a beautiful Democracy it'll be once we finish stamping out those Facist bugs."

"When I face Super Earth for the Vow of Allegiance every morning, I can almost always feel where it is. Even in a brand-new part of the galaxy."

"You ever run into any equipment issues, let me know. I've got your back."

"Ship's in top shape, Helldiver. Ready to dispense Democracy wherever you choose."

"If I were a Helldiver, I think my favourite enemy to kill would be the Bugs. It's gotta be real satisfyin', hearin' 'em crunch under your boot."

"If I were a Helldiver, I think my favourite enemy to kill would be the Bots. I bet watchin' 'em spark and explode really lights up your Freedom-lovin' heart."

"You ask me, I don't think the Automatons are self-aware. I think someone built 'em, and programmed 'em to hate Freedom. Some kind of new alien, maybe."

"Super Earth really is the best place to live in the entire galaxy, isn't it? Sometimes, when I can't sleep, I imagine what it would be like to live there."

"I can't wait to get home again. It's the little things you miss, y'know? Like sitting in candlelight on Heroes' Day, chanting with my family and renewing our vows of Citizenship together."

"If I had all the Super Credits in the galaxy, I'd try to find some way to convince our enemies to embrace Freedom. Maybe print a trillion pamphlets, or build a billion interplanetary radio stations, something to break through whatever propaganda they're feedin' 'em. *sighs* But that's just a pipe dream. We gotta kill 'em all."

"I earned a few more Citizenship points the other day. All it took was reportin' some unpatriotic talk I heard in the barracks. Now there's one less dissident, and I get one more doctor's visit every year."

"There might be a lot of Automatons, but at the end of the day, they're just a bunch of mass-produced walking scrap. Every Helldiver is army of one. Put four of 'em together, that's...four armies. So... who really has the numbers advantage?"

"I heard that some dissidents wanted us to select our own candidates instead of using the algorithm. *scoffs* Great idea. Everyone'll just become a political expert overnight. Treasonous morons."

"I heard dissidents set another weapons factory on fire. They didn't take responsibility, of course. Tried to blame it on "working conditions." Tell that to the 27 dead patriots and their families."

"Back when I was a kid, we used to play "Bug Killers" out in the schoolyard. Whoever could kill the most bugs by the end of recess won. Sometimes the teachers would join in, too."

"You know, if it weren't for Super Earth, I couldn't even afford these high-tech tools I use every day. They lease 'em out to me, so I can do my job. Pretty low interest rate, too."

"Our ancestors fought for the Liberty we have today...and now we're the ones doing the fighting. Kind of makes you proud, doesn't it?"

"[catchphrase] BRASCH TACTICS! Use 'em or die tryin'!"

"[addressing fire modes] Ah, the simple joy of unloading round after round into the bodies of your enemies. Oh yeah, that's good. But if you get carried away... Your shooting days are over! Elite soldiers adjust their fire mode, so they can keep the killin' goin' all day long. Oh yeahhh, that's gooood."

"[addressing injuries] Young bucks always think they're invincible. And while they are mostly right, the fact of the matter is that Helldivers with broken arms cannot aim! Helldivers with broken legs cannot run! And Helldivers with serious injuries to their vital organs will bleed out before they can say "Death to my enemies!" So next time you find yourself unable to run, aim or stay alive, stick yourself with a STIM, soldier!"

"There is no one way to prove your devotion to Super Earth. But there is one best way. Become a Helldiver. Become a hero. Become a legend."

"War. It brings us together. It makes us stronger. And it leads to countless new technologies, some of them related to saving lives. This, is why we fight."

"Super Earth has created the most advanced weaponry in the galaxy. Our power is in your hands."

"Helldivers. Protectors of humanity. Paragons of Democracy. Heroes to their very core. Do you have what it takes?"

"Our enemies forsook mercy long ago. Oblivion is all that awaits them now."

"I only regret that I have but one ship's worth of lives to give to our cause."

"[after Helldiver lands on planet's surface] The fate of all humanity's children are in your hands. Do not let them fall."

"[after successful extraction] Democracy prevails once more."

"Every moment we ruminate, another family is torn limb from limb. We must strike."

"Your fellow Helldivers rage against the enemy's tyranny. Join them."

"You're doing Democracy's work."

"I was just thinking: warping across the Federation like this would be impossible without Element 710. Which comes from the bugs themselves. Their corpses are fuelling the creation of more corpses... [pause] something satisfying about that."

"I thought we had a lot of planets when I was a kid, but we've settled dozens more since then. A few generations from now, and the entire Milky Way will be one united Democracy."

"The Destroyer is mighty, but it's not Super Earth's greatest weapon. No, that is Managed Democracy—the one thing our enemies can never understand."

"You know, the problem with the Bugs is that they're relentless expansionists. In their region of space, we've found them on nearly every planet we've settled."

"Helldivers across the Galaxy are fighting for every inch of territory. Where will you join them?"

"Liberty's enemies march ever closer."

"Innocents perish with every wasted second. We must act."

"Lady Liberty's calls for aid haunt my dreams."

"Every star is a distress beacon, crying out for Liberation."

"We must give no less than the entirety of our being in service to Freedom."

"A true servant of Freedom keeps no companion, save Damsel Democracy herself."

"The enemy may anticipate but one outcome: total annihilation."

"Managed Democracy offers true Freedom: Freedom from the burden of choice."

"Ours are the hands that will tear asunder the binds of tyranny."

"[after Helldiver lands on planet's surface] Go now, Helldiver. Let our enemies take no step that is not hindered by the corpse of their comrade."

"[after Helldiver lands on planet's surface] Let them come. Let them brawl. Let them face the insurmountable might of the Helldivers."

"Here's the problem with the Bots, Helldiver: Their whole society revolves around violence. If they actually won the war, they'd have no idea how to function."
