"Working on a secret project, are we, sir?"
"I don't want this winding up in the wrong hands. Maybe in mine it could actually do some good." - ―Tony Stark and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]

"How'd you solve the icing problem?"
"Icing problem?"
"Might want to look into it." - ―Obadiah Stane and Tony Stark[src]

"I'm here to talk to you about the Avengers Initiative." - ―Nick Fury and Tony Stark[src]

- ―Justin Hammer[src]
- "You don't deserve to wear one of these! Shut it down!"
- ―James Rhodes[src]
- "Tony, you are too young to understand this right now, so I thought I would put it on film for you. I built this for you, and some day you'll realize that it represents a whole lot more than just people's inventions. It represents my life's work. This is the key to the future. I'm limited by the technology of my time, but one day you'll figure this out. And when you do, you will change the world. What is, and always will be, my greatest creation... is you."

"God, they're running out quick."
"I have run simulations on every known element, and none can serve as a viable replacement for the palladium core. You are running out of both time and options. Unfortunately, the device that's keeping you alive is also killing you." - ―J.A.R.V.I.S. and Tony Stark[src]
- "My priority is to get the Iron Man weapon turned over to the people of the United States of America."
"Well, you can forget it. I am Iron Man. The suit and I are one. To turn over the Iron Man suit would be to turn over myself, which is tantamount to indentured servitude or prostitution, depending on what state you're in. You can't have it."
"Look, I'm no expert..."
"In prostitution? You're a senator. Come on." - ―Senator Stern and Tony Stark[src]
- "I think we're done with the point that he's making. I don't think there's any reason..."
"The point is you're welcome, I guess."
"For what?"
"Because I'm your nuclear deterrent. It's working. We're safe. America is secure. You want my property? You can't have it. But I did you a big favor." - ―Senator Stern and Tony Stark[src]
- "What do you want from me?"
"What do we want from you? Uh-uh. What do you want from me? You have become a problem, a problem I have to deal with. Contrary to your belief, you are not the center of my universe. I have bigger problems in the southwest region to deal with." - ―Tony Stark and Nick Fury[src]
- "Now, the true history of Stark name will be written. What your father did to my family over 40 years, I will do to you in 40 minutes."

- ―Tony Stark[src]

Dialogue

"You disconnected the transition lines? Are we off the grid?"
"Stark Tower is about to become a beacon of self sustaining clean energy."

"Like Christmas, but with more...me." - ―Iron Man and Pepper Potts[src]
- "Sir, Agent Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D. is on the line."
"I'm not in. I'm actually out."
"Sir, I'm afraid he's insisting."
"Grow a spine, J.A.R.V.I.S.. I got a date." - ―J.A.R.V.I.S. and Tony Stark[src]
- "Mr. Stark, we need to talk."
"You have reached the life model decoy of Tony Stark. Please leave a message."
"This is urgent."
"Then leave it urgently." - ―Phil Coulson and Tony Stark[src]
- "Official consulting hours are between eight and five every other Thursday."
"This isn't a consultation."
"Is this about The Avengers? Which I-I know nothing about."
"The Avengers Initiative was scrapped, I thought. And I didn't even qualify."
"I didn't know that either."
"Yeah, apparently I'm volatile, self-obsessed, don't play well with others."
"That I did know." - ―Tony Stark, Phil Coulson and Pepper Potts[src]
- "Tony, we need a plan of attack!"
"I have a plan, attack." - ―Captain America and Iron Man[src]
- "So why didn't S.H.I.E.L.D. bring him in on the Tesseract project? I mean, What are they doing in the energy business in the first place?"
"I should probably look into that once my decryption program finishes breaking into all of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secure files."
"I'm sorry, did you say-?"
"J.A.R.V.I.S. has been running it since I hit the bridge. In a few hours we'll know every dirty secret S.H.I.E.L.D. has ever tried to hide." - ―Bruce Banner, Tony Stark and Steve Rogers[src]
- "Yeah. Big man in a suit of armor. Take that off, what are you?"
"Genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist."
"I know guys with none of that and worth ten of you. I've seen the footage. The only thing that you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play. To lay down on the wire and let the other guy crawl over you."
"I think I would just cut the wire."
"Always a way out. You know you may not be a threat but you better stop pretending to be a hero."
"A hero? Like you? You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers. Everything special about you came out of a bottle." - ―Captain America and Tony Stark[src]
- "Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity."
"Uh...actually, I'm planning to threaten you."
"You should have left your armor on for that."
"Yeah, it's seen a bit of mileage and you've got the glow stick of destiny. Would you like a drink?"
"Stalling me won't change anything."
"No, no, no! Threatening. No drink, you sure? I'm having one."
"The Chitauri are coming, nothing will change that. What have I to fear?"
"The Avengers. It's what we call ourselves, sort of like a team. Earth's Mightiest Heroes type of thing."
"Yes, I've met them."
"Yeah, takes us a while to get any traction, I'll give you that one. But, let's do a head count here. Your brother, the demi-God. A super soldier, a living legend who kind of lives up to the legend. A man with breath-taking anger management issues. a couple of master assassins, and you, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them."
"That was the plan."
"Not a great plan. When they come, and they will, they'll come for you."
"I have an army."
"We have a Hulk."
"I thought the beast had wandered off."
"You're missing the point. There's no throne, there is no version of this, where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's too much for us, but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it." - ―Loki and Tony Stark[src]
- "J.A.R.V.I.S.? You ever hear the tale of Jonah?"
"I wouldn't consider him a role model." - ―Iron Man and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]
- "Call it, Captain!"
"Alright, listen up. Until we can close that portal, our priority's containment. Barton, I want you on that roof, eyes on everything. Call out patterns and strays. Stark, you got the perimeter. Anything gets more than three blocks out, you turn it back or you turn it to ash."
"Want to give me a lift?"
"Right. Better clench up, Legolas."
"Thor, you gotta try and bottleneck that portal. Slow 'em down. You got the lightning. Light the bastards up. You and me, we stay here on the ground, keep the fighting here. And Hulk? Smash!" - ―Iron Man, Captain America and Hawkeye[src]
Iron Man 3
Spoken by Tony Stark
- "A famous man once said, ‘we create our own demons’. Who said that? What does it even mean? It doesn’t matter; I said it because he said it, so now he was famous and then basically getting said by two well-known guys. I don’t... argh. Let me start again."

I know you're a coward so I've decided that you just died, pal. I'm going to come and get the body. There's no politics here it's just good old fashioned revenge. There's no Pentagon; it's just you and me. And on the off-chance you're a man, here's my home address: 10-8-80 Malibu Point, 90265. I'll leave the door unlocked."

- ―J.A.R.V.I.S. to Tony Stark[src]
- "Imagine if you could hack into the hard drive of any living organism and recode its DNA."
"That would be incredible. Unfortunately, to my ears, it also sounds highly weaponizable. As in, enhanced soldiers, private armies, and Tony is..."
"Tony, You know, I invited Tony to join A.I.M. 13 years ago. He turned me down. But something tells me now there's a new genius on the throne who doesn't have to answer to Tony any more and who has slightly less of an ego."
"It's gonna be a no, Aldrich. As much as I'd like to help you." - ―Aldrich Killian and Pepper Potts[src]
- "You think he's gonna help you? He won't."
"Having you here is not just to motivate Tony Stark. It's, um... Well, it's actually more embarrassing than that. You're here as my, um..."
"trophy." - ―Pepper Potts and Aldrich Killian[src]
- "Is this guy bothering you?"
- ―Aldrich Killian to Pepper Potts[src]

"Which I will." - ―J.A.R.V.I.S. and Tony Stark[src]
- "Check the heart, check the, check the, is it the brain?"
"No sign of cardiac anomaly or unusual brain activity."
"Okay, so I was poisoned?"
"My diagnosis is that you've experienced a severe anxiety attack."
"Me?" - ―Iron Man and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]
- "You experience things and then they're over, and you still can't explain them? Gods, aliens, other dimensions? I'm just a man in a can. The only reason I haven't cracked up is probably because you moved in, which is great. I love you. I'm lucky, but honey, I can't sleep. You go to bed, I come down here. I do what I know. I tinker. Threat is imminent and I have to protect the one thing I can't live without. That's you. And my suits, they're, uh..."
"Machines."
"They're part of me."
"Distractions."
"Maybe." - ―Tony Stark and Pepper Potts[src]
- "Ever been to Tennessee, J.A.R.V.I.S.?"
"Creating a flight plan for Tennessee." - ―Tony Stark and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]
- "Are we still at "ding-dong"? We're supposed to be on total security lockdown. Come on, I threatened a terrorist. Who is that?"
"There's only so much I can do, sir, when you give the world's press your home address." - ―Tony Stark and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]

"I prepared a flight plan. This was the location."
"Who asked you?" - ―Iron Man and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]

"Unlike you? Admit it, you need me. We're connected."
"What I need is for you to go home, be with your mom, keep your mouth shut, and protect the suit. And stay connected to the telephone because if I call you better pick up. Okay? Can you feel that? We're done here. Move out of the way or I'm going to run you over. Bye kid... I'm sorry kid. You did good."
"So now you're just going to leave you here, like my dad?"

- "You know, and thank you by the way for listening. But something about getting it off my chest and letting it out there in the atmosphere instead of holding this in. I mean this is what gets people sick, you know? Wow. I had no idea you where such a good listener. To be able to share all my intimate thoughts and share it with someone, it just cuts the weight of it in half, you know? It's like a snake swallowing its own tail. Everything comes full circle. And the fact that you have been able to help me process-"
"So-what-what"
"You with me?"
"I was. Yeah. Mmhm. Where were we at, um."
"You're actively napping?"
"I was-I-I drifted."
"Where did I lose you?"
"Elevator in Switzerland."
"So you heard none of it?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not that kind of doctor. I'm not a therapist. It's not my training."
"So?"
"I-I don't have the-"
"What? The time?"
"Temperament."

"You don't know what you're talking about. Stark's not crazy."

"That's not going away anytime soon." - ―Iron Man and Captain America[src]
- "Stark, we're going to need to get inside."

"The scepter is alien. There are elements I can't quantify."
"So there's elements you can."
"The jewel appears to be a protective housing for something inside. Something powerful."
"Like a reactor?"
"Like a computer. I believe I'm ciphering code." - ―Tony Stark and J.A.R.V.I.S.[src]
- "This could be it, Bruce. This could be the key to creating Ultron."
"I thought Ultron was a fantasy."
"Yesterday it was." - ―Tony Stark and Bruce Banner[src]

"Thanks buddy."
"Enjoy yourself, sir."
"I always do." - ―J.A.R.V.I.S. and Tony Stark[src]
- "The news is loving you guys. Nobody else is. There's been no official call for Banner's arrest, but it's in the air."
"Stark Relief Foundation?"
"Already on the scene. How's the team?"
"Everyone's...we took a hit. We'll shake it off."
"Well, for now I'd stay in stealth mode. And stay away from here."
"So, run and hide?"
"Until we can find Ultron, I don't have a lot else to offer."
"Neither do we." - ―Maria Hill and Tony Stark[src]
- "Hello, Deere. Tell me everything. What ails you?"
"Do me a favor. Try not to bring it to life."
"Why, Ms. Barton, you little minx. I get it. Maria Hill called you, right? Was she ever not working for you?"
"Artificial intelligence. You never even hesitated."
"Look, it's been a really long day, like Eugene O'Neill long, so how's about we skip to the part where you're useful."
"Look me in the eye and tell me you're going to shut him down."
"You're not the director of me."
"I'm not the director of anybody. I'm just an old man who cares very much about you."
"And I'm the man who killed the Avengers. I saw it. I didn't tell the team. How could I? I saw them all dead, Nick. I felt it. The whole world, too. Because of me. I wasn't ready. I didn't do all I could."
"Maximoff girl, she's working you, Stark. Playing on your fear."
"I wasn't tricked, I was shown. Wasn't a nightmare, it was my legacy. The end of the path I started us on."
"You come up with some pretty impressive inventions, Tony. War isn't one of them."
"I watched my friends die. You'd think that'd be as bad as it gets, right? Nope. It wasn't the worst part."
"The worst part... is that you didn't." - ―Tony Stark and Nick Fury[src]
- "Our ally? The guy protecting the military's nuclear codes? I found him."
"Hello, Dr. Banner."
"Ultron didn't go after J.A.R.V.I.S. 'cause he was angry. He attacked him because he was scared of what he can do. So J.A.R.V.I.S. went underground. Okay, scattered, dumped his memory. But not his protocols. He didn't even know he was in there, until I pieced him together."
"So, you want me to help you put J.A.R.V.I.S. into this thing?"
"No, of course not! I want to help you put J.A.R.V.I.S. in this thing. We're out of my field here. You know bio-organics better than anyone."
"And you just assume that J.A.R.V.I.S.'s operational matrix can beat Ultron's?"
"J.A.R.V.I.S. has been beating him from inside without knowing it. This is the opportunity, we can create Ultron's perfect self, without the homicidal glitches he thinks are his winning personality. We have to."
"I believe it's worth a go." - ―Tony Stark, J.A.R.V.I.S. and Bruce Banner[src]
- "Why does your "Vision" sound like J.A.R.V.I.S.?"
"We reconfigured J.A.R.V.I.S.' matrix to create something new." - ―Steve Rogers and Tony Stark[src]
- "What do you got, Stark?"
"Nothing great. Maybe a way to blow up the city. That'll keep it from impacting the surface, if you guys can get clear."
"I asked for a solution, not an escape plan."
"Impact radius is getting bigger every second. We're gonna have to make a choice." - ―Captain America and Iron Man[src]
- "What's the drill?"
"This is the drill. If Ultron gets a hand on the core, we lose." - ―Black Widow and Iron Man[src]
- "Maybe I should take a page out of Barton's book. Build Pepper a farm, hope nobody blows it up."
"The simple life."
"You'll get there one day."
"I don't know. Family, stability... The guy who wanted all that went in the ice 75 years ago. I think someone else came out."
"You all right?"
"I'm home." - ―Tony Stark and Steve Rogers[src]
Ant-Man
Spoken about Tony Stark
- "I think our first move should be calling the Avengers."
"I've spent half my life trying to keep this technology out of the hands of a Stark. I'm sure as hell not going to hand-deliver it to one now. This is not some cute technology like the Iron Man suit. This could change the texture of reality. Besides, they're probably too busy dropping cities out of the sky." - ―Scott Lang and Hank Pym[src]
Captain America: Civil War
Spoken by Tony Stark
- "We need to be put in check. Whatever form that takes, I'm game."
- ―Tony Stark[src]
- "Give me a break! I'm doing what has to be done to stop something worse."
- ―Tony Stark to Steve Rogers[src]
- "That's what's going on Cap, it's just pain, it's discomfort. Hey! Whose put coffee grounds in the disposal? Am I running a Bed and Breakfast for a biker gang? Oh, that's Charlie Spencer by the way. He's a great kid. Computer engineering degree, 3.6 GPA, had a four level gig, an intel plan of the fall. But first he wanted to put a few miles on his soul before they parked him behind a desk, see the world, maybe be of service. Charlie didn't want to go to Vegas or Florida, which is what I would do. He didn't go to Paris or Amsterdam, which sounds fun. He decided to spend his summer building sustainable housing for the poor, guess where? Sokovia. He wanted to make a difference I suppose, but we won't know because we dropped a building on him while we were kicking ass. There is no decision making process here. We need to be put in check! In whatever form that takes I'm game. If we can't accept limitations, if we are boundary less, we are no better than the bad guys."
- ―Tony Stark[src]
- "That shield doesn't belong to you. You don't deserve it! My father made that shield!"
- ―Iron Man to Captain America[src]
Spoken about Tony Stark
- "Look, kid. There's a lot going on here that you don't understand."
"Mr. Stark said you'd say that, wow. He also said to go for your legs." - ―Captain America and Spider-Man[src]
- "Stark tell you anything else?"
"That you're wrong. You think you're right. That makes you dangerous." - ―Captain America and Spider-Man[src]
- "The futurist, gentlemen! The futurist is here! He sees all! He knows what's best for you, whether your like it or not."
- ―Clint Barton[src]
Dialogue
- "Tony, if someone dies on your watch, you don't give up."
"Who said we're giving up?"
"We are if we're not taking responsibility for our actions. This document just shifts the blame."
"I'm sorry, Steve, that... that is dangerously arrogant. This is the United Nations we're talking about. It's not the World Security Council. It's not S.H.I.E.L.D.. It's not HYDRA-"
"No, but it's run by people with agendas and agendas change."
"That's good! That's why I'm here. When I realized what my weapons were capable of in the wrong hands, I shut it down and stopped manufacturing."
"Tony, you chose to do that. If we sign this, we surrender our right to chose. What if this panel sends us somewhere we don't think we should go? What if there's somewhere we need to go and they don't let us? We may not be perfect, but the safest hands are still our own."
"If we don't do this now, it's gonna be done to us later." - ―Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, and James Rhodes[src]
- "I'm sorry, did I mishear you or did you agree with me?"
"Oh, I want to take it back." - ―Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff[src]
- "I'm not getting that shield back, am I?"
"Technically, it's the government's property. Wings too."
"That's cold."
"Warmer than jail." - ―Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, Sam Wilson and Tony Stark[src]
- "I'm sorry, Tony. If I see a situation pointed south, I can't ignore it. Sometimes I wish I could."
"No you don't."
"...No, I don't." - ―Steve Rogers and Tony Stark[src]
- "All due respect, you're not going to solve this with boys in bullet vests. You gotta let us bring him in."
"And how will that end any differently from the last time."
"Because this time I won't be wearing Loafers and a silk suit. 72 hours, guaranteed."
"36 hours. Barnes. Rogers. Wilson."
"Thank you, sir." - ―Tony Stark and Thaddeus Ross[src]
- "So, you're the Spiderling. Crime-fighting Spider. You're Spider-Boy?"
"S-Spider-Man."
"Not in that onesie, you're not."
"It's not a onesie." - ―Tony Stark and Peter Parker[src]
- "Wow, it's so weird how you run into people at the airport. Don't you think that's weird?"
"Definitely weird." - ―Iron Man and War Machine[src]
- "You've been busy."
"And you've been a complete idiot; dragging in Clint, rescuing Wanda from a place she doesn't even wanna leave - a SAFE place! I'm trying to keep...I'm trying to keep you from tearing the Avengers apart."
"You did that when you signed."
"Alright, we're done. You're gonna turn Barnes over and you're gonna come with us now 'cause it's us or a squad of JSOC guys with no compunction about being impolite. C'mon." - ―Captain America and Iron Man[src]
- "They're not stopping!"
"Neither are we." - ―Spider-Man and Iron Man[src]
- "F.R.I.D.A.Y.?"
"We have some weapon systems that are offline."
"They're what?" - ―Iron Man and F.R.I.D.A.Y.[src]
- "They're coming for you."
"I'm not the one that needs to watch their back." - ―Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff[src]
- "Did you run a facial recognition yet?"
"What do I look like?"
"Uh, I don't know, I've been picturing a red head."
"You must be thinking of someone else."
"Must be." - ―Tony Stark and F.R.I.D.A.Y.[src]
- "Hank Pym always did say never trust a Stark!"
"Who are you?"
"...Come on, man." - ―Scott Lang and Tony Stark[src]
- "Stark, did he give you anything on Rogers?"
"No, he told me to go to hell. I'm going back to the compound instead. But, you can call me anytime. I'll put you on hold, I like to watch the line blink." - ―Thaddeus Ross and Tony Stark[src]
- "You seem a little defensive."
"It's been a long day."
"At ease, soldier. I'm not currently after you."
"Then why are you here?"
"Maybe your story is not so crazy."
"Maybe."
"Ross has no idea I'm here, I'd like to keep it that way. Otherwise, I got to arrest myself."
"Well, that sounds like a lot of paperwork. It's good to see you, Tony."
"You too, Cap." - ―Iron Man and Captain America[src]
- "Did you know?"
"I didn't know it was him—"
"Don't bullshit me, Rogers, did you know?"
"...Yes." - ―Iron Man and Captain America[src]
- "Do you even remember them?"
"I remember all of them." - ―Iron Man and Winter Soldier[src]
- "This isn't going to change what happened."
"I don't care. He killed my mom." - ―Captain America and Iron Man[src]
- "You can't beat him hand-to-hand."
"Analyze his fight patterns."
"Scanning! Countermeasures ready."
"Let's kick his ass." - ―F.R.I.D.A.Y. and Iron Man[src]
- "He's my friend."
"So was I." - ―Captain America and Iron Man[src]
- "Stay down. Final warning."
"I could do this all day." - ―Iron Man and Captain America[src]
- "Tony, we have a problem."
"Ah, please hold."
"No. Don't-" - ―Thaddeus Ross and Tony Stark[src]
Promotional
- "You chose the wrong side..."
- ―Iron Man to Captain America[src]
- "I was wrong about you. The whole world was wrong about you."
- ―Iron Man to Captain America[src]
- "You just started a war!"
- ―Iron Man to Captain America[src]
- "This doesn't have to end in a fight, Tony."
- ―Captain America to Iron Man[src]

- ―Tony Stark to Peter Parker[src]
- "Hey May! How ya doin’? What are ya wearin’? Something skimpy I hope…okay that’s inappropriate."
- ―Tony Stark to May Parker via video.[src]
- "Forget the flying monster guy. There are people who handle this sort of thing."
- ―Tony Stark to Peter Parker[src]
- "Can't you just be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man?"
- ―Tony Stark to Peter Parker[src]
- "Don't do anything I would do, and definitely don't do anything I wouldn't do. There's a little grey area there and that's where you operate."
- ―Tony Stark to Peter Parker.[src]
- "Thank God this place has wifi or you’d be toast right now. Thank Ganesh, while you’re at it."
- ―Tony Stark to Peter Parker.[src]
Spoken about Tony Stark
- "What's up, guys? Forgot your PIN number? Whoa! You're the Avengers! What are you guys doing here? Thor, Hulk – nice to finally meet you guys. Thought you'd be more handsome in person. Iron Man! What are you doing robbing a bank? You're a billionaire."
- ―Spider-Man[src]
- "I'm sick of him treating me like a kid all the time."
"But you are a kid." - ―Peter Parker and Ned Leeds[src]
Dialogue
- "How'd you find me? Did you put a tracker in my suit or something?"
"I put everything in your suit, including this heater." - ―Spider-Man and Iron Man[src]
- "Stay close to the ground and build up your game helping the little people, like that lady who bought you the churro. Can't you just be a friendly... neighborhood Spider-Man?"
"But I'm ready for more than that now!"
"No, you're not."
"That is not what you thought when I took on Captain America!"
"Trust me, kid. If Cap wanted to lay you out, he would have." - ―Tony Stark and Peter Parker[src]
- "What if somebody died?"
"I was just trying to be like you!"
"I wanted you to be better." - ―Tony Stark and Peter Parker[src]
- "Sorry I took your suit. I mean, you had it coming. Actually, it turns out it was the perfect sort of tough love moment that you needed, to urge you on, right? Don't you think? Let's just say it was. Look, you screwed the pooch hard. Big time. But then you did the right thing: you took the dog to the clinic, you raised the hybrid puppies... alright, not my best analogy. I just wanted to mention that I think with a little more mentoring, you could be a real asset to the team. There's about 50 reporters behind that door, real ones, not bloggers, so when you're ready...Why don't you try that on, and we'll introduce the world to the newest official member of the Avengers: Spider-Man."
- ―Tony Stark to Spider-Man[src]
- "So after the press conference, Happy will show you to your room, your new quarters, see that he is next to Vision."
"Yeah, Vision's not big on doors."
"It's so much fun."
"Or walls."
"You'll fit right in." - ―Tony Stark and Happy Hogan[src]
Promotional Material
- "So, to become a Avenger, are there like trials or anything?"
"Just, don't do anything I would do. And definitely don't do anything I wouldn't do. There is a little grey area in there and that is where you operate. That's not a hug, I'm just grabbing the door for you. Alright, good luck out there!" - ―Peter Parker and Tony Stark[src]
- "I'm gonna need the suit back."
"But I'm nothing without the suit!"
"If you're nothing without the suit, then you shouldn't have it." - ―Tony Stark and Peter Parker[src]

Spoken about Tony Stark
- "Skye? Girl's not qualified to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent."

Spoken about Tony Stark

- ―Robert Gonzales to Phil Coulson[src]
Episode 3.19: Failed Experiments
Spoken about Tony Stark

Episode 3.20: Emancipation
Spoken about Tony Stark

Episode 4.12: Hot Potato Soup
Spoken about Tony Stark
- "Welcome to the inside of my mind, Sheeple. You guys watching any, uh, any good programming lately? You know why they call it "programming," right? Because you're being programmed through little screens, big screens, little morphine drips of sequels and prequels and zombies and Kanyes, Snapchats and Grumpy Cats, all designed by the media, corporate S.H.I.E.L.D. machine, and you're asleep, binge-watching the Apocalypse! You know what Tony Stark's armor is powered by?--"
- ―Thurston Koenig's slam poetry[src]
Episode 4.14: The Man Behind the Shield
Spoken about Tony Stark

- ―Anton Ivanov to Jeffrey Mace[src]
Luke Cage
