- Rambo: [narrating] I've lived in a world of death. I've watched people I've loved die. Some fast with a bullet, some not enough left to bury. All these years I've kept my secrets, but the time has come to face my past. And if they come looking for me, they will welcome death. I want revenge. I want them to know that death is coming. And there's nothing they can do to stop it.
- [last lines]
- Rambo: [narrating] I've lived in a world of death. I tried to come home, but I never really arrived. A part of my mind and soul got lost along the way, but my heart was still here where I was born, where I would defend to the end the only family I've ever known, the only home I've ever known. All the ones I've loved are now ghosts. But I will fight to keep their memory alive forever.
- [from trailer]
- Rambo: I finally came home, to defend the only family I've ever known. But all she's got is me. She's coming home.
- Hugo Martínez: John Rambo. Juanito Rambo. Want to know something, Juanito? These girls mean nothing to me or my customers. In my world, they're nothing. They're not people, they're just things. They have no worth to men like us. So I would not have paid any attention to this.
- [holds up a photo of Gabrielle]
- Hugo Martínez: To her. But now I will. Because you coming here has made it very bad for her, cabron. We would have just trained her, used her, sold her. But now we're going to make an example of her. I'm going to let you live. You're going to think about this every fucking day of your fucking life. Until you can't think anymore, Juanito.
- John Rambo: [to Hugo on walkie-talkie, after killing all of Hugo's men] They're all dead. All of them. I could have killed you ten times, but I wanted you last.
- Hugo Martinez: Fuck you.
- John Rambo: No, fuck you, dead man. I want you to feel my rage, my hate, when I reach into your chest and RIP OUT YOUR HEART! Like you did mine.
- Hugo Martinez: [in Spanish] Fuck you... and your bitch too!
- John Rambo: You wanna live? Follow the lights!
- [detonates tunnels]
- Maria Beltran: You never let me in the tunnels.
- Rambo: If you really wanna go in, I'll take you on a guided tour.
- Maria Beltran: No, thank you. Too dirty.
- Rambo: It is that.
- Gabrielle: I'm just trying to understand why you would just go like that.
- Manuel: Okay. Because one day, I looked at your mother and you and realized you both don't mean anything to me anymore. I know it's hard to understand. But I wasted time being with you and her. And she fucking dies and leaves me with you, who I never wanted. Any more questions? You don't need to come back.
- John Rambo: [to Manuel, Gabrielle's father] All this shit, it's because of you. I should have broke your fucking neck ten years ago.
