— Budd

Context

Budd says this to his brother Bill over the phone after being warned that The Bride is coming for him. It shows his philosophical acceptance of his likely fate.

It reveals his inability to accept her change and provides the ultimate justification for his actions in his own mind.

Looked dead, didn't I? Well, I wasn't. But it wasn't for lack of trying, I can tell you that... And when I arrive at my destination, I am gonna kill Bill.
— Beatrix Kiddo
