Walter Bishop quotes from Fringe

Walter

I believe with proper demodulation, you could receive satellite television for free.

Walter

To help us understand what happened at the diner, we'll use Mr. Papaya. Clear. This is upsetting as he is the friendliest of the fruits.

Walter

There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality. I'm rarely if ever opposed to such things except now.

Walter

No, Peter's right. Your pupils are dilated. It's a symptom of high stress. Unless you're using hallucinogens. Are you tripping, Agent Dunham?

Walter

Unless you have an IQ higher than mine, I am not interested in what you think.

Walter

Peter. Help her. Help her calm down. Go ahead son.

Walter

You may not remember this. When you were a boy, you were very sick, dying... ...and sometimes you got scared. And to calm yourself, to forget what you were going through, you took to collecting coins - this one, this was your favorite

Walter

I have a terrible headache, and a sudden craving for chicken wings.

Walter

I realized at that moment that despite what I'd promised, what I fully intended to do, that I could never take Peter back. The way she looked at him. I saw in her what I feared most in myself when I saw him: I couldn't lose him again. It was the first hole, Olivia. The first breach. The first crack in the pattern of cracks. Spaces between the worlds. And it's my fault. You can't imagine what it's like to lose a child.

Walter

For a catastrophic explosion like that I imagine he has some sort of surgical implant. Dental surgical crowns, if they were to resonate at just the right frequency… I always hated dentists.

Walter

Belly and I spent days discussing the distant crossing the line. 'Only those who could risk going too far can possibly know how far they can go' was what Belly used to say.

Walter

… this type of auditory phenomenon, taken to its ultrasonic extreme, can be fatal, and the way it affects the brain, it could well have induced some type of vegetative trance before death… silent but deadly. Speaking of which, you might like to take a step away! (to Peter)

Walter

Dear God. How can you be so limited? When William Bell created this company, he knew one thing to be true. Brain and the mind are capable of so much. Don't you see that the brain is consciousness, hmm? The mind is god! There are no limits, except for those that we impose on ourselves. Open your eyes. Open, open. Inspiration is everywhere. Do you know how lucky you are to play in this sandbox?

Walter

The human brain is a miracle. Our most resilient organ. A storage unit for almost everything you have ever known, seen, felt. It's all still in there, whether or not you're conscious of that.

Walter

Every time the Observer shows up, it has something to do with you. And every time; something bad.
