"I started this war killing Germans in Africa. Then France. Then Belgium. Now I'm killing Germans in Germany."

(In German to the Nazis) "Shut up and send me more pigs to kill!"

"It will end, soon. But before it does, a lot more people gotta die."
(Referring to Fury) "It's my home."

"Best job I ever had."

"See that? That's a whole city on fire. I bet that's where those bombers were heading. The dying's not done. The killing's not done."

"Wars are not going anywhere, Sir."

(To Norman) "I had the best Assistant Driver in the entire Ninth Army in that seat. Now I got you. I
promised my crew a long time ago I'd keep them alive. You're getting in the way of that. It ain't like the newsreels up front."

(To Norman) "See what a kid can do? That's your fault. Next fucking German with a weapon you see, rake the dog shit out of him. I don't care if it's a baby with a butter knife in one hand and mama's left titty in the other. You chop him up."

"We ain't never run before. Why we goona run now?"

"You think it can't get worse? It can. And it will."

(To Norman about Fury) "That's home. Do what you're told. And don't get too close to no one."

(To SS Prisoner of War) "I'll question him. (in fluent German) What's your favorite color? You like chicken or beef? You a good dancer? You like fat girls?"

"Norman, open this goddamn hatch, you cocksucker!"

(To Coon-Ass) "You're an animal. A dog. All you understand is the fist and boot."

(To Gordo) "Wanna talk Mexican? Find another tank. A Mexican tank. This is an American tank. We talk American."

(To Norman) "I'm scared too, son."

(In the script) "Take good care of him. Or I'll take good care of you."
"I'm sorry, son. I did my best."

(After Norman says that he is the new assistant gunner) "No you are not."

"Done much killing?"

"What happened back there, that's every day. That's every day."

"Keep doing what I say. You do that and you'll get through this thing."

"Button up!"

"We ain't here to ask them questions."

"I know what I did. He's an SS. They're real assholes. I kill every SS I can. You'd seen what I seen you would too."

(To Norman) "Why are you here? You're here to kill him! Know why he's here? He's here to kill you! He's here to kill YOU, Norman!"

(After Sergeant Miles asks why they are rescuing low-level soldiers) "Why are you such an asshole?"

(In German to German refugees) "Keep walking. American lines are that way. Keep moving. Hands up high. There you go. Move."

(After Norman mentions wanting to surrender) "Please don't. They'll hurt you real bad. And kill you real bad."
"The Devil watches over his own."

Look what they worte about me, am I the Hero afterall?
Although it is true that Wardaddy is a hero, and with that, the main hero of the movie; but he is more of an antihero. Wardaddy is a ruthless soldier with extreme brutality that almost knows no bounds, even to his own men if they don't comply with his orders. He shows a great hatred for Nazi Germans, particularly the SS, and orders his men to kill every armed German they see, no matter how young they may be. Wardaddy has also ordered his men to run over German soldiers with their tank. Along with near-total war brutality, Wardaddy has also committed illegal war crimes, such as executing an unarmed prisoner of war, one who had a family. Nonetheless, Wardaddy's brutality did get to him, as he is shown in a few occasions having trouble living with himself for what he has done. Wardaddy would smoke to take the edge off, but it didn't seem to help much, although he tried to remain calm and collected for his crew at all times. Wardaddy didn't hate Germans in general, but only the SS, who were the more loyal and fanatic Nazi troops, and as such, did everything he could to kill them. There is sympathy to the character. Director David Ayer claims that Fury is a father-son story and that Wardaddy was a mentor to Norman. Producer John Lesher claims that Wardaddy is a damaged soul. It can be argued that Wardaddy does not like killing people, but does it to save his own life and the life of others, or perhaps to just finally finish the war the Nazis started. Wardaddy has an extremely complex personality, at one point mocking the Bible and another quoting it right down to the verse, at one point shooting an unarmed POW and at another defending two German women from his own men by threatening to "kick in [their] teeth". What makes the character even more complex and enigmatic is ths he is strongly hinted to be of German descent, and can even speak the language, and his brutality towards Germans may be explained because he hates how the Nazis have destroyed the country. In the script, Wardaddy flat out mentions to Norman that his mother was born in Germany, in a village that the Nazis destroyed.

Evil is Evil. Lesser, greater, middling… Makes no difference. The degree is arbitary. The definition’s blurred. If I’m to choose between one evil and another… I’d rather not choose at all.
