[first lines]
Cleveland Heep: Once, man and those in the water were linked. They
  inspired us. They spoke of the future. Man listened and it became
  real. But man does not listen very well. Mans need to own
  everything led him deeper into land. The magic world of the ones
  that lived in the ocean... and the world of men... separated.
  Through the centuries, their world and all the inhabitants of it...
  stopped trying. The world of man became more violent. War upon war
  played out, as there were no guides to listen to. Now those in the
  water are trying again... trying to reach us. A handful of their
  precious young ones have been sent into the world of man. They are
  brought in the dead of night... to where man lives. They need only
  be glimpsed... and the awakening of man will happen. But their
  enemies roam the land. There are laws that are meant to keep the
  young ones safe... but they are sent at great risk to their lives.
  Many... do not return. Yet still they try... try to help man. But
  man may have forgotten how to listen...

Hogarth Hughes: [seeing the shot deer] Its dead.
The Iron Giant: Dead? [the Giant tries to pick up the deer]

Hogarth Hughes: I know you feel bad about the deer, but its not your
  fault. Things die. Thats part of life. Its bad to kill, but its
  not bad to die.
The Iron Giant: You die?
Hogarth Hughes: Well, yes, someday.
The Iron Giant: I die?
Hogarth Hughes: I dont know. Youre made of metal, but you have
  feelings, and you think about things, and that means you have a
  soul. And souls dont die.
The Iron Giant: Soul?

  and that it goes on forever and ever.
[Hogarth leaves. The Iron Giant lays back to look at the stars]

Hogarth Hughes: It was an accident. Hes our friend.
Dean McCoppin: Hes a piece of hardware, Hogarth. Why did you think

Hogarth Hughes: I thought you might like, you know, a bedtime story.
  I have some really cool ones. Mad Magazine - very funny. The Spirit
  - very cool. Boys Life - eh. Oh, here. This is Superman. Hes a
  lot like you. Crash-landed on Earth, didnt know what he was
  doing... but he only uses his powers for good, never for evil.
  Remember that. [Giant looks at a comic with a robot like himself on
  the cover]
Hogarth Hughes: Oh, thats Atomo, the metal menace. Hes not a hero,

Hogarth Hughes: Well, goodbye. [Hogarth starts walking away, the
  Giant follows him] No, no. Me go, you stay. No following. Good.
  [Hogarth walks, the Giant still follows him] I told you! Ill come
  back tomorrow! Now, stay! [Hogarth leaves, the Giant follows him]

  Hogarth. Do you?

Kent Mansley: What am I talking about? Im talking about your
  goldarned security, Hogarth! While youre snoozing in your widdle
  jammies, back in Washington were wide awake and worried! Why?
  Because everyone wants what we have, Hogarth! Everyone! You think
  this metal man is fun, but who built it? The Russians? The Chinese?
  Martians? Canadians? I dont care! All I know is we didnt build
  it, and thats reason enough to assume the worst and blow it to
  kingdom come! Now, you are going to tell me about this thing, you
  are going to lead me to it, and we are going to destroy it before
  it destroys us!

Kent Mansley: Your moms working late tonight, Hogarth, so its just
  us guys, and were gonna have a little chat. Sit down!
[shoves Hogarth onto a chair and shines a bright light on him]
Kent Mansley: Hows that? A little too bright? Good. Forgive me,
  Hogarth. I wanted you to learn something.
Hogarth Hughes: What can I learn from you?
Kent Mansley: You can learn this, Hogart. That I can do anything I
  want, whenever I want if I feel its in the peoples best interest.

  protect your mother.
Hogarth Hughes: My mom?
Kent Mansley: Its difficult to raise a boy all alone. We can make it
  more difficult. In fact, we can make it so difficult that it would
  be irresponsible for us to leave you in her care, and all that that
  implies. Youll be taken away from her, Hogarth.
Hogarth Hughes: You cant do that!
Kent Mansley: Oh, we can, and we will.
