Temperance Brennan quotes from Bones

Booth

We're definitely not working well together.

Brennan

Because you are bossy and judgmental.

Booth

Problems between people -- it's never just one person's fault.

Brennan

What about Hitler? He did pretty well on his own.

Brennan

Observation isn't just seeing Dr. Wyatt, it's experiencing. Ideally, I'd prefer being inside Booth's head. Seeing and feeling things the way he does. Then maybe I'd understand.

Wyatt

Be one with him.

Brennan

In a scientific sense.

Wyatt

[to Brennan] In my opinion, you are unable to lead a purposeless life at this stage in your psycho-social development. Which, by the way, is an issue you should address, because a certain amount of purposelessness is necessary to lead a full life.

Brennan

I hate psychology.

Booth

You don't like it because he's saying that all this tension between me and you is your fault.

Wyatt

Mmm, on the contrary. [to Booth] If anything, your issues are more pronounced, given that your behavior has been affected by what turns out to be a quite irrational fear of being responsible for someone else's destiny.

Brennan

That makes sense.

Booth

Oh, now you like psychology.

Max Keenan

Hey, I haven't committed a crime in over fifteen years. I'm straight.

Brennan

Except for killing, gutting and burning the Deputy Director of the F.B.I.

Max Keenan

He was trying to kill Russ, and then he was going after you. It is not a crime to protect your family.

Brennan

Well, some fathers do it without killing.

Angela

What can't you tell me?

Brennan

By definition, I can't tell you.

Brennan

So you think "Icepick" might still be alive.

Booth

As a friend of mine likes to say, don't jump to conclusions...[gets up and smiles smugly at Brennan] until all the evidence is in.

Brennan

If the facts are in then it's not "jumping to a conclusion". I never said that.

Booth

I never said that the "friend" is you, ok? [walks out]

Brennan

Why didn't you just tell him about Kennedy?

Booth

Well, you know, I needed to give you time to find me. You know, I've been tortured worse.

Brennan

Did you ever get drunk together?

What?

Booth

What my partner is trying to ask is if you two were buddies. Did you go out and have drinks and exchange confidences?

Brennan

Yes, that's what I asked.

Brennan

Maybe it wasn't a U.F.O. that Cal saw.

Booth

Ah.

Brennan

He could've seen something else.

Booth

Yeah, like a death beam or a space baby.

Booth

Speaking of marriage, Hodgins is gonna propose to Angela tonight.

Brennan

Huh.

Booth

What?

Brennan

I guess right now it looks to me like marriage is having someone who will slap your enemies and then toss their dead bodies out of airplanes.

Booth

Try not to mention that to Angela.

Brennan

I believe that dopamine and norepinephrine simulate euphoria because of certain biological triggers like scent, symmetrical features...

Booth

Symmetrical features.

Brennan

Yes, it's an indication of a good breeder. You appear to be a very good breeder.

Hodgins

Look, I'm Abby. [to Zack] You're Carly.

Zack

Why am I always the murder victim?

Hodgins

Sit.

Brennan

[chuckling] Zack's always the murder victim.

Angela

Hey Brennan, I'd like to ask you a favor. Well, it's not so much ask a favor as, as, as extend an honor. I mean, I hope you see it as an honor and you don't think of it as some onerous duty, which I don't think you will, but then again I've never done this before, and of course--

Brennan

Angela, just ask.

Angela

Will you be my maid of honor? [Brennan looks close to tears] At the wedding? [Brennan hugs her] Is that yes?

Brennan

I'm completely, totally honored.

Angela

Really? I thought I'd have to tell you what a maid of honor--

Brennan

I don't even care how awful the bridesmaids' dresses are. I'm so glad you asked me.

Brennan

Dad, what are you doing here?

Max

Well, I heard you were getting married.

Brennan

What? No! Angela's getting married to Hodgins, not me.

Max

Oh...uh, the bug guy... oh that's great! [Booth starts to handcuff him]

Booth

[to Max] Will you shut up, please! [catches Brennan looking at him, awkwardly to her] Uh, long enough for me to Mirandize him.

Max

[sarcastically] You got the right to remain silent....got it! [to Brennan] We'll talk more later.

Booth

[apologetically] Look, I'm sorry, Bones, but he killed the Deputy Director of the FBI. I'm just doing my job.

Could you please take down the pictures Chelsea drew? I don't want anyone to come in and just throw them away.

Brennan

You threw away your own daughter, why would I do you a favor?
