It takes all kinds to make the world go ‘round. Unfortunately, some are pedaling in the wrong direction...


Favorite quote, eh? Like asking me to pick the greenest blade of grass...


Jayne: Only fluid I see is the puddle of p**s refusin' to pay us our wage.

Mal: If anybody gets nosy, just... you know, shoot 'em.

Simon: To Jayne, the box-dropping, man-ape gone wrong... thing.

Mal: I can see you weren't burdened with an abundance of education...

Zoe: How is it you always seem to find yourself in an Alliance-friendly bar on U-Day, looking for a quiet drink?




You guys had a riot... on account o' me? My very own riot?

There are a lot of quotes that are great. Here is a couple that come to mind.

"Yeah, but she's our witch, so cut her the hell down."-SAFE

Something like this...
Zoe "This is something the Captain has to do on his own."
Mal "No I don't" WAR STORIES

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one." BUSHWHACKED

There are just so many good ones. How does one pick?

I can't begin to pick just ONE favorite, since Firefly is so very quotable, but see my tag line for one of my all-time faves.

Also, you can always rely on Jayne for a good one:

"Smells like crotch"..."Well, it does."

"What didya all go and order a dead guy for?"

The pilot episode, just after a particularly ugly exchange between Mal and Jayne

SIMON: I was just wondering what his job is. On the ship.

A beat.

MAL: Public relations.


Never fails to crack me up.

Awww. Geez. My favorite quote? Hmm... So many...

Quite possible: "Were there monkeys? Some terrifyin' space monkeys maybe got loose?"

I want a terrifying space monkeeeeey.

I could have sworn I saw a comment about the quotes disappearing from IMDb, but I can't find it right now. Anyway, they didn't disappear--they're just broken out into the different episodes they are from. IMDb changed format a while ago and now has the shows broken out into seasons, and under the seasons, the eps from the season. Not as convenient as far as the quotes go, but at least they are still there.

Favorite quote? Hmmm...as many have said, hard to pick just one. I'll go with Book's "special hell" quote, for now.

Hey, I just found another favorite. You hardcore Browncoats will recognize it...


"...and we never, ever make mistakes....How do you turn this fu@#ing thing off?"

"Damn it, Mal... I forgot my line."

There are so many, it's really difficult to choose. So I'll just pick a few at random:

Mal: If your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.

Mal: My days of taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

River: Your bible's broken. It doesn't make sense.

River: It's just an object. It isn't what you think.

River: It tells you not to be afraid. But you are afraid. You're afraid that we're going to run out of air. That we'll die gasping. But we won't. We'll freeze to death first

Kaylee: How can we be sure unless we question it?

Wash: I've been in a firefight. I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity.

Badger (looking up at Mal): I'm above you!

Aaaarg, too many too many good quotes - and I keep doing them in public!

This isn't my fave, but I do like it an awful lot. In Serenity, when Mr Universe says,looking at River on the security feed (and I'm sure i'm getting this slightly wrong):
"You always bring me the very best violence."

One of my faves, and SO easy to use on a daily basis:

Jayne: "You are seriously damaging my calm!"

I know there's more to that line, but that's the gist of it.

And yeah, the dialogue in Firefly and Serenity is remarkable. To all the writers who made Firefly and Serenity a reality, I hope you don't mind if I use it as a textbook of sorts.

Just thought of this one when I was rambling in another thread.

First episode.

Jayne smiling away. "Let's moon em."

And you see Serenity's engine fire up for the first time.

"Now we have to get married... I'm in the family way."




Yeah, that's one of my favorite scenes...even though it was deleted... But my favorite part in that one is Rivers line:
"We'll take care of each other. I'll knit!"

I just watched Shindig again and while the episode itself is just ok, there are sooooooo many good quotables in it. My fave has got to be:

Guy: You know, you didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah I know, it was just funny.

Lost dog- yup that would be one of my favorites too... I think that scene so perfectly encapsulates both Mal and Zoe as well as the love between Simon and River.
It's one I'm having set on a tee shirt
Oh I should actually reference the quote
" yeah, but she's our witch so cut her the hell down."

I liked that whole scene to be honest - from both points of view (as an Agnostic I love it when things aren't clear-cut)

Okay a couple of my favorite qoutes, but forgive me if I don't get them exact and I am not sure of the titles of the shows:

Mal: Zoe, you lack imagination.
Zoe: I imagine I do sir.

From Serenity:
"I'm a leaf in the wind." (That is for those of us that will mourn Wash!)

BULLETINTHEBRAINPANSQUISH


River- 'My food is problematic'

Wash- 'When people see a man walking down a street with a hat like that, they know he's not afraid of anything'

Simon- 'Everyone on our ship is either married, professional or related to me, so you're the only choice'

River- 'You are such a boob'

Mal- 'Kaylee's dead.' )Flash to the Mal, Jayne, Zoe and Wash up on deck) Mal- 'I am a bad man'

Mal- 'I don't think there's anything in the verse that could stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just want to tape up her mouth and put her in the hold for a month'

Kaylee- 'I love my captain'

And in Serenity, I like the pre-recorded message that they get out, and how you can see River mirroring it.

Mal gives control of the ship to Zoe...
Mal: If I'm not back in an hour, you come, and you rescue me.
Zoe: What? And risk my ship?

Has to be this one:
SIMON
Are you always this sentimental?

MAL
I had a good day.

SIMON
You had the law on you, criminals and
savages... half the people on the
ship have been shot or wounded
including yourself, and you're
harboring known fugitives.

MAL
We're still flying.

SIMON
That's not much.

MAL
It's enough.

It just sums up everything.

aaaaw,tears are all but aflowing with the memories awoken here,thats what this is,not the quotes as such,we instantly remember the next scene and it links us as a whole to our memory of firefly/serenity, were all a little like river in that this page is just full of triggers,that set us off on our journey once more back home onboard the boat,and lets not forget that a fair few of us have quotes in our sig.boxes.. but personally id like to quote the 'Grrrr,Aaaargh' zombie cutout at the end cause no-ones mentioned him yet and he was in every episode...

oh,and Zoe after Mal and Wash's rescue....take me sir,take me hard..............
