Dr. William Bell quotes from Fringe

William Bell

As I once said to Walter, physics is a bitch.

William Bell

I understand that this could take some time getting used to. Imagine how I feel, I never knew that a bra was so binding.

William Bell

You tell Walter, I knew the dog wouldn't hunt.

Olivia

Where am I? Who are you?

William Bell

The answer to your first question is... it's very complicated. The answer to your second... I'm William Bell.

William Bell

Uh, excuse me, excuse me. Don't I know you from… somewhere? Oh, I have it, you're agents. Fringe Division. You work for the secretary.

Sorry, sir, we're in a bit of a rush.

William Bell

I'd imagine you would be. Chaotic times, aren't they? Chaotic times. I… I'm sorry, the secretary and I are old friends. I'm William Bell. I see you're carrying the '76 power side-arms. I designed those, you know…

Um, I'm sorry, Mr. Bell, but we have to…

William Bell

The '76 models don't have the phase repeater. That's a design flaw.

William Bell

They also don't have the pulse function, which I am putting in the '77.

Excuse me, sir.

Walter

Hello, William.

William Bell

Walter.

Walter

I see you've aged.

William Bell

It appears I'm not the only one.

Walter

Even if we were able to transfer your consciousness safely inside Gene, there are matters to consider.

William Bell

We would communicate through my brain waves. You'd hook me up to an EEG machine and decipher my thoughts.

Walter

It could work. But still, I'd have to milk you.

William Bell

Well, we could assign Astrid.

Peter

I don't understand. If this is a projection of everything in Olivia's mind, then why is everyone turning against us? When she came to us in the lab, she asked for help.

William Bell

What I'm starting to think is that when my mind entered hers, her ego became confused, her sense of self.
