"Asgard. Proud and gleaming jewel of the Nine Worlds. The Asgardians have since the Allfather opened his wisened eye, stood defiant against the wrath of their many enemies. But wrath is a sword easily shattered and these foes have thus far been unsuccessful. Perhaps they need a better plan. It would have to be a cunning plan, full of guile. And it would have to consider of course the Allfather. Mighty Odin, Ruler of Asgard. If he were to fall, then all the Nine Worlds would slip into chaos. But he is well protected. Someone would have to open the Mighty Gates of Asgard along the Rainbow Bridge. And the plan would need some way to neutralize the all seeing Heimdall. Long has he watched over Asgard and its welfare. But he’ll never see this coming. Not today. Asgard is under attack. Someone must have come up with a plan."
"Wrong, Jotun. You have come here to die."
"What in the Nine Worlds?"
"Idris Elba as Heimdall"
"Tom Hiddleston as Loki"
"Chris Hemsworth as Thor"
"Rick D Wasserman as Surtur"
"You know who I am."
"Everything was fine before Loki showed up! He almost convinced me! Had me believing things could change!"
"Do they not have metaphor in your homeland? Or rather did they? I'm sorry, that's not fair."
"[clutching Kratos's neck] I see why my sons fell to you. Even this... lesser version of you. But I am NOT MY SONS! And your boy? Allfather has plans for him. [Kratos headbutts him, then hits him with a right hook, roaring in rage; Thor chuckles] There he is. [pulls a tooth out, throws it] There's the God of War. Consider your debt paid. Be seein' ya. [flies off]"
"[seeing Kratos near Thrud during the final battle] STAY AWAY FROM HER! [slams into Kratos, carrying him away through the air] I am DONE with you and your son! [they crash in front of the Great Lodge] NO MORE FUCKING GAMES! And this time... I'm allowed to kill you."
"Keep her name OUT OF YOUR DAMN MOUTH!"
"[last words, refusing Odin's command to kill Kratos] No."
"[Freya: It (Garm) will rip holes open in the World Tree until there is nothing left, what were you thinking?!] Aye, this is a fuck up of not-insignificant proportions!"
"[Atreus: There was a wolf... in Hel... He was in chains, I set him free, and...] Garm?! Great bleeding fuck lad, you freed Garm?!"
"[About Odin impersonating Tyr] He counted on us to be sympathetic instead of sceptical. I'll never believe compassion is a weakness, but he sure used it as one!"
"Thor! The lad seems to think you've changed! Prove it and stop this!"
"[Falls off of Kratos' belt and sees him killing Heimdall] Brother! BROTHER! This isn't who you want to be!"
"You're on fire, Kratos! It will pass."
"[to Freya] I do not regret saving your life, and never will. But the choice between life and death should have been yours to make. I should not have robbed you of that choice."
"[to Freya] Do not tell me to kill again. I kill to protect my son, to aid my friends, but I will be no one's monster. Never again."
"We do not need to do this!"
"[during his first duel with Kratos] You think you can come here, become a daddy, get a clean slate? That ain't how it works. You're a destroyer, like me. [shoves Kratos back and bludgeons him with Mjolnir, nearly killing him] Oh no… I say when we're done. [shocks Kratos back to life] I'm not leaving 'til I see the REAL you. Get up!"
"[drunkenly] Let it be known... the god of thunder is good for two things: killing Giants... and PISSING MEAD! [Einherjar laugh and cheer] Any man who disagrees... will greet Mjolnir... [slams his hammer onto the table] with his face."
"[during the tavern fight in Asgard; drunken] Thinking too mucccchhhhh...."
"Make your move!"
"Let’s end this!"
"[to Kratos] Don't you know, [he hits his chest as he says this] WHAT I'VE DONE?!"
"[to Kratos] We don't change... We... are DESTROYERS!"
"[Before Atreus leaves] Loki will go... but [voice starts shaking] Atreus... [places hand on heart] Atreus remains. [He and Atreus embrace]"
"[After Kratos throws the coin Odin gave Atreus] And keep the change, you bastard!"
"You must listen!"
"Odin does not—!"
"[Thor: Don't you know, what I've DONE?!] Yes! But what will you do now?"
"[Thor: We don't change. We, are DESTROYERS!] No more. No more. For the sake of our children. We. Must. Be. Better."
"[To his younger self] What can I say to you? I remember how it felt to take that throne. All that it meant. And all that it did not. A god of war... a god of pain. Of suffering. Of destruction. The Norns said I chase a redemption that I know I can never deserve. What does that make me? God of fools! A god of... Hope. "When all else is lost..." You lost everything. And everyone. And you became... There is no forgiving you. You chose! I chose. What now? Should I, this same man, should I sit? Take? Proclaim? Lead? Place myself in service? In service... Should I... lose everything and everyone... will there still be enough left inside so that I do not become you? I do not know. But I have hope. You are cruel, and arrogant, and selfish. But you are more than that. You have always been more than what others saw. You are more than that."
"Bloody Draugr Holes! We've got to clear out all these undead bastards!"
"[about Heimdall] I have killed gods greater than him."
"[Atreus calls Kratos an asshole] Laddie! You know that's no way to change a man's mind!"
"[After watching Kratos brutally kill Heimdall] Kratos... that was... I don't know if we're breaking fate, or fate's breaking us."
"A symbol can't be slain, destroyed, or ignored. The best measure is often to reclaim it. Redefine it. Remind us it's not the throne, but the god who sits in it."
"I do not seek war... but if Odin has stolen my son, do not doubt the lengths I will go to!"
"War is not a joke. Especially where gods are concerned."
"[to "Tyr"] Are you not a soldier? Are you not a leader of men?! MASTER YOURSELF! My son brought us to this place for you! LOOK AT HIM!"
"Be glad you have a home to remember fondly. In Sparta, we were taken from our homes as children and raised in the agoge. We marched or we drowned. Fought for scraps or starved. Our elders beat us till we could not stand. At night we made our way home, alone, or were food for wolves. That is how Spartans are made."
"There was an old man who chopped wood for his village. Every evening, he bore the logs on his back and delivered them to his people. But the logs were heavy, and he grew weaker as time went. Then one day, he threw down the logs, as he could no longer bear their weight, and he called for Death to come to him. And when Death arrived, he asked why the old man had called for him. Seeing Death before him caused the old man to reconsider his request. After a moment, he asked that Death help him lift the logs onto his back, so that he may continue on his journey."
"Son... listen closely. You feel their pain because that is who you are. And you must never sacrifice that, never. Not for anyone. I was wrong, Atreus. I was wrong. Open your heart. Open your heart to their suffering. That is your mother's wish... and mine as well. Today, today... we will be better."
"[in Kratos' house] You seem like a calm and reasonable person. [dips his fingers into his mead, wipes them on Mjolnir's head] Are you a calm and reasonable person?"
"[to Mimir, regarding his grudge against the Berserkers] I know how it feels to be wronged, and how it feels to achieve vengeance. I would hope to spare you the disappointment."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
