Jack Hodgins quotes from Bones

My people were right.

Your people???

We're Booth's people.

Hodgins

[about the Grave Digger] I'd like to kill you. I hate her. I think I could murder her.

Brennan

If I think of any group of people could murder someone and get away with it, it would be us.

Hodgins

[notices Fisher looking depressed] What's with the long face there, "sunshine"?

[to Hodgins] Mr. Fisher just broke up with his girlfriend and he's feeling a little down. [Fisher is sighing and groaning at the side]

Hodgins

What about me? My girlfriend and I broke up and I gotta see her at work everyday.

Fisher

Well, obviously it hasn't blackened your soul like it has mine.

Hodgins

There was some light charring.

Fisher

I'm dead inside.

Hodgins

Ok. You win. Happy?

Fisher

[looks up at Hodgins] Not that I can ever remember.

Vincent

[referring to the corpse that is being examined] Forgive me, doctors, but...is his skin moving?

Ooh...God, that's strange.

Brennan

Insect activity?

Hodgins

Never seen insects like that...'cept in Alien.

Vincent

I'm secreting adrenaline.

Angela

What's wrong with the moment?

Hodgins

Nothing.

Angela

But?

Hodgins

But it's nice, every once in a while, to think about the future.

Angela

So let me this straight: to be together, then it has to be all about the future?

Hodgins

Yeah.

Angela

So this, right now, this isn't together?

Hodgins

It was a moment. A great moment, but like all great moments, past.

Angela

Ooh, what is that smell? Are you wearing cologne?

Hodgins

It's urine. I found traces of uric acid on the victim's clothing.

Angela

Oh.

Hodgins

It was the pheromones you found pleasing.

Angela

Yeah, yeah. The pheromones in tiger urine?

Hodgins

Well, I assume it was tiger urine. The cat was probably marking its territory.

Angela

I was turned on by tiger urine?

Hodgins

[Laughs] Celibacy isn't easy, Ang.

Angela

Tell me about it.

Hodgins

Hey? [The girls looked unhappily at Hodgins] Whoa...What'd I do?

You're a man

Angela

Oh! Yeah..we hate men

Hodgins

I gotta go..now

Brennan

No lions?

Hodgins

Not in the whole park.

Booth

There are tigers. How much difference can there be between lion urine and tiger urine?

Brennan

There are no stripes in lion urine.

Vincent

The slowest meteorites travel at 25,000 miles per hour.

Hodgins

Uh-huh.

Vincent

I'm not just spouting useless facts. You do not have a chance at recreating those velocities with a glorified blow-gun. You simply want to fire a cannon at a dummy.

Hodgins

[holds out safety goggles] Are you staying or going?

Vincent

Another set of eyes taking note can never be amiss.

Hodgins

To eternity, to glory, to the future. [scoffs]

Brennan

You disapprove of the Collar Institute?

Hodgins

Up and forward are only two directions. Science should look in all directions. You taught me that.

Brennan

I did?

Hodgins

Every day.

Brennan

Thank you.

What about real names?

Hodgins

I imagine they play that pretty close to the vest.

Angela

Kinda ruins the magic when you find out that Satan's name is Todd or Larry.

Angela

So I googled Tanaka, three hundred hits, all Japanese, none with a personal pronoun.

Hodgins

We should just ask her.

Angela

Him.

Sweets

Uh, you people can identify human remains based on a tiny little finger bone but you can't judge the sex of the person standing right in front of you. Does nobody else see the irony in this?

I am saying no to this experiment.

Hodgins

Yeah, I got that after the part where you said no seven times in a row.

I find that you don't pay attention to the first six.

Hodgins

DARPA created a chicken soldier?

Wendell

I do not see the United States military making chicken soldiers. Eagle, maybe.

Hodgins

That's why we couldn't find his so-called fingers, because they're transformed into talons. I mean, talons would be much better weapons.
