Highlander Quotes

[Diamond9697]

okay guys...I've seen this in other forums and I thought...what the heck...let's try it..so I'll start with some of my faves....

Tessa: Please, don't say anything in front of the lady. Let me just go into the next room and crochet while you have cigars and brandy and talk about beheadings. "The Gathering"

Richie: I'm young, my libido's in meltdown! "Free Fall"

Duncan: My father couldn't understand what had happened.
Richie: Who could? Man, he musta freaked. I mean, there you were all of a sudden, on your feet again - zombie in a kilt!
"Family Tree"

Duncan: Are you always this annoying?
Fitzcairn: Of course, it's part of my personality.
"Star Crossed"

Joe: You can't stop this now.
Methos: No. Spin control. You know, I can answer a few questions, maybe reduce the hysteria.
Joe: Straight into the lion's den, huh? And what makes you think you're going to come out alive?
Methos: I've got a lot to offer. Five thousand years of history, Joe. I was there.
Joe: History's been written. And people have been known to kill the messenger that waltzes in with a new version of the truth.
Methos: Why would I tell the truth?
"Finale 2"

Methos: She's got him tingling in places he didn't even know he had.
"Chivalry"

Alexa: Well. Either you like to drink, or you're crazy about the blues.
Methos: No, I was waiting for you. I see I leave you speechless. This is an excellent start.
Alexa: Start to what?
Methos: To - dinner, a film, a concert, a smile, a sunset, a walk, uh... all of the above? Whatever you would like.
Alexa: Do women really fall for that line?
Methos: I have no idea - I've never used it before.
"Timeless"

Duncan: Did you kill all those people?
Methos: Yes. Is that what you wanna hear? Killing was all I knew. Is that what you want to hear?
Duncan: It's enough.
Methos [slamming Duncan up against the 4 by 4]: No! It is not enough! I killed - but I didn't just kill fifty, I didn't just kill a hundred - I killed a thousand! I killed *ten* thousand! And I was good at it! And it wasn't for vengeance. It wasn't for greed. It was because - I liked it. Uhuh. Cassandra was nothing. Her village was nothing. D'you know who I was? I was Death! [Duncan slams Methos against the 4 by 4; Methos laughs] Hahahaha! Death! Death on a horse! When mothers warned their children that the monster would get them, that monster was me. I was the nightmare that kept them awake at night. Is that what you want to hear? The answer is yes. Oh, yes.
Duncan: We're through.
"Comes A Horseman"

Duncan: But the penalty for poaching is hanging. That's it! Hang me! Hang me!
"Counterfiet"

Methos: You think it takes courage to do what we do? Face another Immortal with a sword knowing only one of you will live? You try being her! You try living one year knowing that your time is running out, knowing that however much you train, whatever tricks you have, you still lose! That's the way it is for them. So little time for them to see anything or do anything.

The Modern Prometheus


Methos: "He is not governed by the laws of mortal men. He is of a different kind."

Mary Shelley: "How do you know this? How can you know it?"
