Marvel’s star-spangled super hero, Captain America has been a firm favourite in comics for decades. But it was when he stepped onto the big screen in a series of live-action features from Marvel Studios, that he really became a global sensation.
Across the course of multiple movies, Captain America/Steve Rogers proved he had what it takes to be a real hero, by fighting villains, standing up for the little guy, and doing what is right. And more often than not, he did that with some great pieces of dialogue!
In this post I am serving up the best Captain America movie quotes to highlight the superb dialogue uttered by the Marvel hero. These lines are taken from various movies, including Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), The Avengers (2012), Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Captain America: Civil War (2016), Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019).

But I think it’s time to tell the truth. S.H.I.E.L.D. is not what we thought it was. It’s been taken over by HYDRA. Alexander Pierce is their leader. The S.T.R.I.K.E. and Insight crew are HYDRA as well. I don’t know how many more, but I know they’re in the building. They could be standing right next to you. They almost have what they want. Absolute control. They shot Nick Fury. And it won’t end there. If you launch those helicarriers today, HYDRA will be able to kill anyone that stands in their way. Unless we stop them. I know I’m asking a lot. But the price of freedom is high. It always has been. And it’s a price I’m willing to pay. And if I’m the only one, then so be it. But I’m willing to bet I’m not.”
