Teen Titans feature superheroes Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Raven and Beast Boy. Audiences would certainly love to see these DC characters get a live-action film of their own alongside Aquaman and Batman. Starfire especially deserves a big-screen appearance given her kind and thoughtful personality.
Her quotes have helped her friends over the years, provided audiences with important life lessons, and demonstrated Starfire's character development as well. She doesn't give up on anyone - even when people, like her elder sister Blackfire, have betrayed her. Her curiosity about all things Earth, including blending flavors like bananas and mint frosting, are some of Starfire's best moments that are uniquely her. In any case, her memorable quotes deserve a shout-out as well.
Starfire On Her Royalty:
"Oh Yes, I Am Second In Line For The Throne. Perhaps I Forgot To Mention?"
When Starfire returns home for her betrothal, her friends are in for one more surprise, which is that Starfire is from a royal line and is a Princess.
Starfire does not flaunt her title or act like she is better than anyone, not on Earth and certainly not on her home planet. She is humble, and she is proud of where she comes from. Starfire truly cares for her people and leaves them in good hands with Galfore by the episode's end, knowing that she is needed on Earth.
Starfire Talking About Her Favorite And Unique Topics
"I Suggest A Large Pizza With Pickles, Bananas, And Mint Frosting."
It's no secret that Starfire certainly has a strange taste for food, and her eating habits are often humorous. Tamaran, itself, has some unusual dishes, so it's not surprising that Starfire would find combinations of Earth food (such as a pizza with pickles, bananas, and mint frosting appealing).
Her friends were obviously horrified at the thought, though Starfire's sweet, innocent manner of suggesting it is adorable. Robin later clarifies that not everything on the menu is an add-on for pizzas, though it probably wouldn't stop Starfire from trying it on her own. She and Joey from Friends certainly share an appreciation for food of all kinds!
Starfire Showing Her Gratitude To Her Friends
"Come Friends! I Shall Thank You For My Rescue By Reciting The Poem Of Gratitude. All 6,000 Verses."
After being rescued by her friends, Starfire cheerfully says the above quote. Her friends gape, not necessarily grateful for the poem of gratitude and its lengthy nature. However, it would've been impressive to see Starfire recite 6,000 verses of a poem; her memory is truly impressive, and knowing Starfire can talk a mile a minute if she wants to, it'd be interesting to hear her take on the poem of gratitude.
Though the Titans dreaded hearing poems and Tamaranean folk songs from Starfire, audiences wouldn't mind her having her own YouTube channel where they'd get to see her recite poems, sing songs, and post videos about her adventures.
Starfire On What She Learned From The Future
"History Said It Disappeared, But History Was Wrong!"
The above quote is spoken by Starfire in the episode "How Long Is Forever?", in which she suddenly finds herself 20 years into the future, and is saddened by what she finds. Her friends have drifted apart; however, they come together to help her defeat Warp, the villain she followed into the time portal.
They also help her get back to her own time, where she tells her friends in the present about the future, and where she declares that because of the experience, she believes their futures will be rewritten. The quote above has a double meaning in that Starfire recovered the item Warp had stolen, but also for the Teen Titans themselves regarding their futures and friendships.
Starfire To Raven About Their Relationship
"Perhaps You Are Right. And, If You And I Are To Overcome This Ordeal, We Must Know Everything About Each Other. So, Begin Sharing."
When Raven and Starfire switched bodies inadvertently, it also changed their friendship forever given the ordeal provided them with the opportunity to really get to know each other on a meaningful level.
Like many iconic Teen Titan friendships, Raven and Starfire's relationship was tested and grew because of it as they learned about each other's pasts and struggled with learning how to use one another's powers, while simultaneously trying to save Robin, Cyborg and Beast Boy from The Puppet King's evil plans. They were under an incredible amount of pressure, but they came out on the other side of things stronger, their friendship unbreakable and with a greater understanding and respect for one another.
Starfire Showing Her Affection For Her Family
"Farewell, Sister! Although You Did Betray And Attack Me, It Was Still Very Nice To See You."
Starfire's cheery, kind, and thoughtful nature truly shows in this quote. Initially, she is thrilled to see her older sister Blackfire when she unexpectedly arrives, though her cheery mood begins to disappear when she feels Blackfire is beginning to take her place among her circle of friends.
Ultimately, Blackfire had been trying to frame Starfire for her own crimes, hoping her sister would take the fall for them while Blackfire escaped. Blackfire's plans backfired, and even as she was hauled off to jail, Starfire says the above quote, already forgiving her sister's evildoings. Regardless of the fact that Blackfire is a villain and not one of the most likable characters, Starfire still cares for her sister.
Starfire On Feeling The Weight Of Being A Hero
"Must We Always Be Heroes? Are We Capable Of Nothing Else? Can We Not, For A Few Moments, Be Something More?"
Robin's and Starfire's feelings for each other have always been obvious to audiences, though like the iconic '80s couple, Sam and Diane on Cheers, it took quite a bit of time for the two to ultimately get together. While in Tokyo, Robin is insistent that heroes don't make mistakes and don't take vacations, and the above quote is something that Starfire gently asks, trying to change the subject.
She wants to know if there is something more, or if there ever will be. Sadly, she does leave crying, but later, the two heroes did get something more in a meaningful kiss, showing that they indeed wanted to be more.
Starfire To Cyborg About How She Sees Him
"I Did Not Know You Before, So To Me, You Are Normal."
Starfire and Cyborg share a meaningful moment in the above quote, where Cyborg confesses to her how, being with the Hive, he'd felt normal. Her response is the above quote, spoken gently, honestly, and kindly. Starfire always knows what her friends need, and she had the right words for the right moment.
Starfire is always there when her friends need her, and one of the most likable things about her is her warmth and big heart. The smile on Cyborg's face when she speaks those words says everything.
Starfire To Val-Yor About Not Giving Up On Him
"You May Not Value My Life, But I Still Value Yours!"
Even though Val-Yor consistently judged and insulted Starfire simply because she was a Tamaranean, she refused to treat him in the same manner, and even wound up saving his life, shouting the above quote as she convinced him to let her help him.
Starfire rose above the situation and did what was right, and spoke the perfect words for that moment, making for a memorable scene and important lesson in the series about prejudice.
Starfire Gives Out Some Good Advice To Her Friends
"There Will Always Be People Who Say Mean Words [...] But There Are Many More People Who Do Not Judge Others Based On How They Look Or Where They Are From. Those Are The People Whose Words Truly Matter."
In the Season 4 episode "Troq," Starfire and the rest of the Titans meet Val-Yor. Instantly, Val-Yor has a dislike for Starfire. Starfire is initially unaware as to why until he reveals what he truly thinks of Tamaraneans, and her feelings are terribly hurt. The episode was a big lesson on racism and judgment; however, Starfire rose above Val-Yor's treatment of her and still helped him.
When Val-Yor leaves, he still manages to make an insult out of a compliment to Starfire, and as her friends apologize for his treatment of her, Starfire says the above quote. Though her feelings were understandably hurt, Starfire is wise beyond her years and knows that, at the end of the day, his opinion doesn't matter, and she knows that she has real friends who love her the way she is.
