Rocket Raccoon: Well now I'm standing. Happy? We're all standing now. Bunch of jackasses, standing in a circle.
Groot: I am Groot.
Peter Quill: Well that's just as fascinating as the first 89 times. What is wrong with Giving Tree here?
Rocket Raccoon: Well he don't know talkin' good like me and you, so his vocabulistics is limited to 'I' and 'am' and 'Groot,' exclusively in that order.
Peter Quill: Well I tell you what, that's gonna wear real thin, real fast, bud.
Korath the Pursuer: Star-Lord!
Peter Quill: Finally!
Rocket Raccoon: [looking at Stan Lee.] Look at Mr. Smiles over here. Where's your wife, old man? What a class-A prevert.
Peter Quill: So here we are: a thief, two thugs, an assassin and a maniac. But we're not going to stand by as evil wipes out the galaxy. I guess we're stuck together, partners.
Rhomann Dey: They call themselves the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Nova Corps Officer: What a bunch of a-holes.
Gamora: I have lived most of my life surrounded by my enemies. I would be grateful to die surrounded by my friends.
Peter Quill: She betrayed Ronan, he's coming for her. That's when you...[draws his finger across his throat].
Drax the Destroyer: Why would I want to put my finger on his throat?
Peter Quill: No, that's the symbol for slicing his throat.
Drax the Destroyer: I would not slice his throat, I would cut his head clean off.
Rhomann Dey: He said that he may be an... "a-hole." But he's not, and I quote, "100% a dick."
Nova Prime Rael: Do you believe him?
Rhomann Dey: Well, I don't know if I believe anyone is 100% a dick...
Nova Prime Rael: Do you believe he's here to help?
Rhomann Dey: Yeah, I do.
Howard the Duck: Why'd ya have it lick you like that? Gross!
Answer: As a Kree, he has superior physical and mental strength that allows him to briefly hold the Infinity Stone, just as Peter held it briefly. But if he had held it longer he would have been destroyed, although he would be able to hold it longer than most. This is why he was trying to embed the stone into his Cosmi-Rod.
