Celibacy is a lot like fasting.
So you've become sexually anorexic?
At first you're out of sorts and agitated, and then you sort of..push through to a kind of clarity.
Have you reached clarity?
No, I'm still at the agitated and horny stage.

[Discussing a dead man] It's obvious what happened. He was frostbitten while climbing Everest, struck by a meteorite, then dumped in the vacant lot in two garbage bags.
The slowest meteorites travel at 25,000 miles per hour.
Uh-huh.
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.
[holds out safety goggles] Are you staying or going?
Another set of eyes taking note can never be amiss.
To eternity, to glory, to the future. [scoffs]
You disapprove of the Collar Institute?
Up and forward are only two directions. Science should look in all directions. You taught me that.
I did?
Every day.
Thank you.

A frozen cadaver would simply bounce if dropped. Any moron would know that.
You know what? You're the only smart person I really like.
Thank you!
You said I have a creepy mode.
I apologize, okay? I wasn't in my element.
Every element is your element.
That's not true. We've just got to stop hanging out with geniuses, because you're going to figure out that I'm really stupid.
What? Don't worry about that. I figured out a long time ago how stupid you are.
Hmm.
What I just said is true and yet it really sounded wrong. What I should say is I don't care how stupid you are... That's not any better?
No. No. Not at all. That's not even relevant.
There is intelligence, which I have, and Mr. Nigel-Murray.
Thank you.
And Sweets, even though his is so misdirected as to be meaningless.
Right.
Wow, backhand full of knuckles with that compliment.
And Hodgins, and Angela not so much, but she's very talented.
Thank you, very much.
You're welcome. But then there's another quality, which is the ability to use intelligence. That is what you have.
Thanks, Bones.
