Written and Directed by Gavin Hood. Based on the 1985 novel by Orson Scott Card. Dialogue Major Gwen: Why'd you keep kicking him? You'd already won the fight. Did you enjoy it? Ender: No. Then why? Speak up, son. Knocking him down was the first fight. I wanted to win all the next ones too. So they'd leave me alone. Colonel Graff: But you have a habit of upsetting your commander. Ender: I find it hard to respect someone just because they outrank me, sir. Ender: I've had a lot of fights, Val. I've won because I've always understood the way my enemy thinks. And when I truly understand them... Valentine: You also love them. Mazer: There is no teacher but the enemy. Only he will tell you where you are weak, where he is strong. Colonel Graff: We won! That's all that matters. Ender: No. The way we win matters.
