TV show quotes
When you're young and you care about someone, you think with your heart. You don't see clearly.
I don't know why you're so worried about Richie. I mean, you act like you're his father or something.
I'm not his father, Laura, but he is like family to me.
I'm looking for a girl.
Try working on your personality.
Richie, where is this going from here? What happens if you are out on the road and a cop recognizes her? What are you going to do, kill him? How far is this going to go, Richie?
I don't know, Mac, I don't know! All I know is, I gotta help her, Mac. Mac, she needs me.
[John is mortal. Rebecca is not.]
Promise me something. You will leave me before I get too old.
You are in a good mood today!
Well, I'm serious. Listen, Rebecca, you deserve a younger man.
I have a younger man. I have what I want.
There's two things...
John, you are the love of my life. You're the love of a dozen lifetimes. I don't care if you are 23, or 53, or 103. I am never going to leave you. Ever.
MacLeod, do you ever wonder what it is like to die?
Every time.
That's not what I meant.
I know, you meant really die. Be gone forever.
So you do think about it.
Not for myself. Not any more. Whatever happens, happens.
I don't know. The longer I live the more I get attached to myself.
Sooner or later everyone dies. Even us.
I don't mind the later, it's the sooner part I don't like.
[Flashback to 1635]
Why take a man's head when you can have his gold?
Amanda!
What? You taught me to be clever.
I also taught you to be honest.
Ah yes, I forget that part.
Hmmmm. Breakfast in bed. You better watch it, MacLeod. They say this is how love starts.
Was the crystal really worth Rebecca's life?
It's worth any amount of lives.
Whoever has the crystal becomes invincible. Is that it?
So you know.
It's a myth, Luther. A story told by bored people around campfires.
You stuck your nose in without being asked, the least you could do is say you're sorry.
What, for saving your life?
Oh don't change the subject!
You got a visitor.
But I'm not even here yet.
Walk out that door and you won't know if this is the right place or not.
I've gotta go to Japan.
Japan?
Yeah, you know. Land of the Rising Sun. Hai!
You just got back!
That was Paris. It's a different continent.
Very funny, MacLeod.
I'll give you the air miles.
How long have you been gone?
Six months.
Yeah right, so for six months, everything is quiet. I don't even get a hangnail. And all of a sudden you show up and I'm fighting to save my teeth.
Don't thank me all at once, Charlie.
Sometimes it's not the body you have to protect... it's the spirit.
[Flashback to Japan, 1778]
But there must be some other way! We can get a boat and leave Japan...
I could no more run than I could fly. Koto is a noble Samurai name... a name I have been honored to borrow. To dishonor it for all who follow me would be unthinkable.
