Avengers: Age of Ultron The Family Quotes

Wanda Maximoff: We wait for two days for Tony Stark to kill us. Family can be a powerful motivator. 

When the Maximoffs lose their family to a group of Tony Stark's missiles, they vow to get their revenge—and they vow to do it together. Sure, there are just two of them, and twins at that, but theirs is one of the closest family bonds (to each other and their dead parents) that we see in the film.

Laura Barton: You know I totally support your Avenging. I couldn't be prouder. But I see those guys, those gods…
Clint Barton: You don't think they need me.
Laura Barton: I think they do, which is a lot scarier. They're a mess.

Laura is more on the money than even she knows here. But what she doesn't know is that she's just as important as Hawkeye in this equation. It's not just his professionalism that inspires the Avengers; it's his family. They offer Hawkeye a connection to the real world that the rest of these single, dysfunctional superheroes don't have. From that connection comes a sense of perspective, a grounding that all the rest of Hawkeye's teammates could really benefit from.

Bruce Banner: I can't have this. Kids? Do the math. I physically can't.
Black Widow: Neither can I. In the red room where I was trained—where I was raised—they have a graduation ceremony. They sterilize you […] You still think you're the only monster on the team?

Woah, woah, woah—slow down there, Dr. Banner. Who's talking about kids? Still, he can't stop himself from jumping lightyears ahead in his imagined relationship with Black Widow. Since they're not able to have a traditional family, he doesn't see a point in moving forward with their relationship. That seems like a strange pre-condition for love, but it's a very real one that many folks encounter. Ironically, Black Widow is in the same boat. Maybe they were meant to be together after all, just in a family of two rather than eight. Come on—superheroes weren't meant to drive minivans.
