"Ashitaka is not a cheerful, worry-free boy. He is a melancholy boy who has a fate. I feel that I am that way myself, but until now, I have not made a film with such a character. Ashitaka was cursed for a very absurd reason. Sure, Ashitaka did something he should not have done - killing Tatari Gami. But there was enough reason to do so from the humans' viewpoint. Nevertheless, he received a deadly curse. I think that is similar to the lives of people today. I think this is a very absurd thing that is part of life itself."

"Osa: [To Ashitaka] Life is suffering. It is hard. The world is cursed. But still, you find reasons to keep living."

"Moro's Cub 1: [To Ashitaka] You're too slow! Get on!"

"Moro's Cub 1: [to a member of the Ape Tribe, who want he, his brother, and San to leave Ashitaka for them to eat] You go, before my fangs find you!"

"Kaiya: [giving Ashitaka her crystal dagger] No, I want you to keep it, so you won't forget your little sister."

"Leper: [a piece of the wooden wall is removed. A cannon and a head is seen. It fires at a boat, knocking a man off and almost upsetting the boat] Ha ha. I missed. They're bringing boats across the river!"

"Toki: Oh, that's all right. Milady, if you hadn't been there, the wolves would have eaten everyone, and then we'd all have to find ourselves new husbands."

"Toki: You scared me half to death! Don't you 'little flower' me!"

"Kohroku: My arm, it doesn't hurt. IT'S HEALED!!! [stretches his arm and it cracks] Argh, no, it's still broken."

"Kohroku: Huh...I never knew the forest god made the flowers grow."

"Wise Woman of the Emishi: You cannot alter your fate, my prince. However, you can rise to meet it if you choose."

"Nago: Disgusting little creatures. Soon, all of you will feel my hate, and suffer as I have suffered."

"Kid, listen, everybody wants to have everything in life, and now I might actually get it!"

"Are you selling donkey piss?"

"This soup is donkey piss!"

"Relax, kid, I have bigger fish to fry. Your secret's safe with me."

"Well, I give up. You just can't win against fools."

"So you say you're under a curse? Well so what. So's the whole damn world."

"When you're going to kill a god, let someone else do your dirty work."

"[last words] "Ashitaka...can you save the girl you love?""

"[to the boars] "Humans are everywhere these days. Go back to your mountain. Kill them there.""

"The trees cry out as they die, but you cannot hear them. I lie here. I listen to the pain of the forest and feel the ache of the bullet in my chest, and I dream of the day I will finally crunch that gun-woman's head in my jaws."

"Give me back my daughter, demon!"

""Now my poor, ugly, beautiful daughter is neither wolf, nor human. She lives with the forest, and so too will die with the forest."

"I was saving my energy to bite off that damn woman's head...but I must save San."

"[about the Okkoto/Okkotonushi] "Don't touch him. He's no longer a god.""

"You'd risk everything on one last battle. That's just what the humans want."

"[to the boars] "You cannot win against the humans. Their guns will destroy you all.""

"Silence, boy! How dare you speak to a god like that!"

"Typical. Selfish. You think like a human."

"I caught her human parents defiling my forest. They threw their baby at my feet as they ran away. Instead of eating her, I raised her as my own."

"I was hoping you'd cry out in your sleep. Then I would have bitten your head off to silence you."

"YOU WILL DIE!"

"The sooner we get this rice home, the sooner we'll eat! Let's move!"

"Cut off a wolf's head and it still has the power to bite."

"Now watch closely, everyone. I'm going to show you how to kill a god. A god of life and death. The trick is not to fear him."

"This is my garden. None of the townspeople dare to come here."

"I'm not afraid to die, and I'd do anything to get humans out of my forest"

"Ashitaka, you mean so much to me, but I can't forgive the humans for what they've done."

"[voice breaking] "You’re on their side. You always were"."

"No! I don't wanna become a demon!"

"Lord Okkoto, you must stop! They aren't your warriors, don't you understand?"

"[annoyed, referring to Lady Eboshi] "Ugh, it's that damn woman again.""

"[furiously] "Quiet! Watch what you say, you filthy pig!""

"I hate him! I hate all humans!"

"You would do that kill the very heart of the forest."

"To see with eyes unclouded by hate."
