TV show quotes
So after five thousand years, your only solution is that I kill you?
He can beat me. He might beat you. He can't beat both of US.
If it's that simple, why don't you take my head?
'Cause it's not just a matter of who is the best fighter. It is about passion and hate. I don't have the fire. You do. You want Kalas.
Live, Highlander. Grow stronger...fight another day.
You've killed two already. How much is enough?
There were five of them.
This isn't the answer.
A body for a body. A head for a head. Since the dawn of time. It's no different now.
Revenge does nothing, Ceirdwyn... nothing.
[Speaking to her husband's grave]
I did what I had to do... But you'd think, after all this time, I would have learned... Death is always death. And when someone's gone, nothing can bring them back. Not pain, not rage... not revenge.
[About her dead (mortal) husband]
You going to be OK?
No, not for a long time... I'm not going to forget him, you know? But it was worth it. For the fifteen years we had together, I'll trade fifteen years of pain. I'd trade a hundred!
But what about the price they pay? No family, living in secrecy... waiting for the night you go out and you never come back. Maybe we're not supposed to be with them.
They're not children, MacLeod. They make their own decisions. Steven knew what I was, and he chose to be with me.
[Anne examines a Scottish broadsword]
You fought the battle of Culloden with this? That was in 1746.
I know, it's hard to accept. I thought coming here might help. That was a gift from Bonnie Prince Charlie. I claimed it after he died.
It's like a fairy tale, with swords and people living forever.
Not always.
That's right, the heads. Do you really have to do that?
Yeah.
Duncan, I've seen death. And I'm not afraid of it. Whatever happens, I want us to be together.
Your whole life will never be the same.
My whole life has not been the same since the day I met you. I tried it with you. I've tried it without you. I'll take it with you any day.
I'll kill you in a second, boy. Leave while you've still got your head.
There's only one thing I hate more than being called a "boy". And that's your stupid paintings.
[They fight]
I'd kiss you, but people might talk.
They might.
So, is this the way it's always going to be?
I don't know. I can't see into the future. Can you live with it?
I don't know. But I'd really like to try.
Amanda?
Gotta hand it to you, MacLeod...You've got a memory like an elephant.
Amanda, what are you doing here? Besides making a fashion statement.
You like it?... I'm making you dinner...
Come on, Amanda, give. What do you really want?
Just to make you happy.
Why?
So you won't kill me when I tell you what happened.
What the hell are you doing here?
Came to hear some jazz.
Jazz.
You know, American music. Miles, Coltrane, Wynton...[off his look] Alright, I was looking for you. [his look doesn't change] Alright, I was looking for Kalas! You know you can really be irritating sometimes?
That went well. What the hell were you thinking of?
I wasn't thinking, I was improvising.
By cutting yourself open? And it took you five thousand years to figure that out.
You're disappointed in me, aren't you? Gimme a break. What were you expecting? Einstein? Freud? Buddha?
Forget it.
Sorry, Joe. I'm just a guy.
