Farscape quotes

Crichton

There's life out here, Dad. Weird, amazing, psychotic life. And death. In Technicolor. Hey, Dad, you know those rattlers in the stomach we talked about? Well, I've got them now.

Crichton

Boy, was Spielberg ever wrong. Close Encounters my ass.

Rygel

[before John's launch] Son, I can't help being who I am. Who I was.

John Crichton

It's not who you are, Dad: I love who you are. It's being son of who you are. [nervous chuckle] Look, I... can't be your kind of hero.

No, you can't be. But each man gets a chance to be his own kind of hero. Your time will come, and when it does, watch out. Chances are it'll be the last thing you ever expected.

[explaining theory behind Farscape One project] Ladies and gentlemen of the press, at 26:14 on the flight clock, we begin the major experiment of this shuttle mission. Commander John Crichton will pilot a craft of his own design in a dangerous attempt to use our planet's gravity as a speed booster, slingshotting him off into space at previously unrecorded speeds. If successful, the results are anticipated as the first concrete steps toward interstellar travel.

[surprised] Prisoner... you're escaped prisoners?

D'Argo

Yes, of course! We're someplace else. I'll... get back to you on the specifics.

[about an unusual aspect of Hynerian physiology] It's a perfectly natural bodily function. And it's odorless.

D'Argo

So your loyal subjects tell you!

John Crichton

You fart helium?

Crais

[to Crichton] A human? It will require some study. I will personally enjoy pulling you apart to see what you're made of.

John Crichton

[with pulse pistol, to Peacekeeper guards] Don't move! Or I'll fill you full of... little yellow bolts of light!

Aeryn Sun

It's my duty, it's my breeding since birth. It's what I am.

John Crichton

You can be more.

Crichton

It’s just like a VCR, except easier.

We can stick our heads between our legs and kiss our asses goodbye. It’s a saying.
