David Xanatos quotes from Gargoyles

Goliath

The Eye, give it to me.

David Xanatos

A trade?

Goliath

Let's just say... I don't trust you with it.

David Xanatos

So, now you know my weakness.

Goliath

Only you would regard love as a weakness.

Actually, Mr. Xanatos, I believe he's right. You've never looked more heroic.

David Xanatos

A momentary lapse, I assure you.

David Xanatos

Marry me.

Fox

Are you serious?

David Xanatos

We're genetically compatible, highly intelligent, and have the same goals.

Elisa Maza

[pointing her weapon at Xanatos] You're not going nowhere, Xanatos!

David Xanatos

Sorry, business. You understand. [flies off]

Elisa Maza

[To Goliath] Don't listen to him. It's a trick! He couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it!

David Xanatos

But my life doesn't depend on this. It's Fox's life we're talking about.

Goliath

I have no more love for Fox than for you. Even if what you say is true, why should I help her?

David Xanatos

Because you know what it means to lose some you love.

Elisa Maza

Don't even think about it, Goliath! Can't you see this is his plan D? If it fails, he'll move on to E or F.

Goliath

A noble effort, Xanatos. But another failure. Not a good night for you.

Elisa Maza

[Grabs on to Xanatos as he's about to fly] I trust you as far as I can throw you.

David Xanatos

I don't have time to argue. [takes off]

Petros Xanatos

Why do you need all this?.

David Xanatos

Oh, reason, not the need, father. I wanted it, so I took it.

David Xanatos

It's so unlike you to attack first. I simply invited you here to talk.

Goliath

Our past encounters have not inspired me to trust you.

Don't you know it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding.

David Xanatos

Fox and I make our own luck.

Will Goliath actually be here?

David Xanatos

Oh, he'll be here. I bet my future on it.

David Xanatos

[after Demona and Goliath leave the ceremony, Xanatos chases after them] Now the fun begins.

Petros Xanatos

This is your wedding! Have you no respect for anything?

David Xanatos

Sorry, pop. I'm in a bit of a hurry.

Petros Xanatos

Unacceptable!

Goliath

If I didn't fear the damage you would do to the time stream, I'd gladly leave you here.

David Xanatos

But you won't. Because you didn't. Time travel's funny that way.

Goliath

Then you were partners in this sorcery.

David Xanatos

I wanted to believe what she promised so I gave her access to the studio.

Goliath

YOU FOOL! I should make you pay for all the lives she destroyed.

David Xanatos

Do you want vengeance or a solution? This is bigger than either of us has ever faced. We'll have to work together to stop her. Truce?

Goliath

[Exhales] Agreed. [Shakes Xanatos's hand]

Goliath

What is Elisa doing here?

Brooklyn

She doesn't look too happy.

David Xanatos

Owen sometimes has that effect on people.
