Peter Quill, who wishes he was better known as Star-Lord, was dealt an odd and unfair hand in life. He was just a kid when he was whisked away to a life of crime in space, leaving his mother, who was terminally ill, dying of cancer.
The only token he has from his short life on earth was a record player full of music from the '60s, '70s, and '80s. By the time audiences see adult Peter, he has embraced crime and even has a name for his thieving persona: Star-Lord.
Peter grows quite accustomed to being a mercenary, but things change drastically once he meets Gamora, as the two both go after the same thing: an infinity stone. Throughout his misadventures, he meets more mercenaries, and by the end, they are bound by one mission: saving the universe.
As the film series continues, fans get to see more of Star-Lord's humor and his bond with the "Guardians of the Galaxy." Celebrating this oddly complex character, here are 26 of his most quotable quotes.
