Murtagh: A son doesn’t choose his father.

Durza: There is no one left for you to fear, my king.
King Galbatorix: [Looking at map] Beyond these borders are remnants of the resistance. Dwarves, Elves, the Varden. I can’t let them have hope. Do not let them reach the Varden

Eragon: But in the woods…
Arya: Leave me here! Go, now!
Durza: It’s far too late for that.
[Laughs]
Durza: Forgive me if I stare, I knew you were young, but even then I was expecting someone a little more, well, more.
[Eragon charges at Durza, only to have him disappear and then reappear down the hall. Durza uses magic to make weapons and rocks fly forward to hit Eragon]

Durza: A young magician, how quaint.
Arya: Too late. It’s hatched.

Roran: Work on that aim. You may make a hunter, yet.
[embraces Eragon sadly]
Arya: Time moves quickly.

[Saphira breathes fire for the first time]
Eragon: I’ll take that as a yes.
