Nikita quotes from La Femme Nikita

What is it, Nikita?

Nikita

Michael, she's a nice woman. She loves you. You? You're gonna destroy her.

She's not in love with me. She'd feel the same about any man that treated her well.

Nikita

I see. So, that makes it okay?

If you feel so concerned about her, tell her to break off with me. She trusts you, she'll listen. But, first make sure that you're willing to watch more innocent people die while we stand by and do nothing. Because that's what will happen if we don't get the Book.

Nikita

What about all your words?

(He says nothing)

Nikita

I finally get it. I finally know... what attracts me to you. It's the character you pretend to be. The real Michael disgusts me, I'm sure.

Can we finish this later?

Nikita

We're finished!

What about Michael?

Nikita

Michael? A friend's someone you can trust.

It's true, Michael has played a role with you from time to time. He's doing his job. It doesn't mean he's incapable of caring.

Nikita

Michael's not the solution to my problem, Madeline.

What is?

Nikita

I need to know that, one day, when the Section is done with me, and I have performed all the functions I'm capable of, that I will be free. Will I?

What kind of answer would you like?

Nikita

The truth?

No. You will never be free from the Section.

Nikita

Thank you.

S1 E22 Mercy

View quote →

I can't protect you anymore.

Nikita

I never asked for your protection.

Without it, you'd be dead now.

Nikita

You seem to care more about that then I do.

Why can't you just... do the job?

Nikita

I tried to tell you.

Tell me what?

Nikita

I'm not who you think I am. I never killed anyone before I came into Section. I know you don't want to believe it, but you know it's true.

It's not important what you did. It's what you do now.

Nikita

I can't change who I am.

Then I can't help you.

Nikita

Why did you ever?

I wish things could be different.

Nikita

Me too.

I thought I lost you.

Nikita

You never had me.

S2 E1 Hard Landing

View quote →

Nikita

Is everything ok?

Fine.

Nikita

Where does the section think you are?

Gathering intel. Why didn't you let me know you were alive?

Nikita

I almost did once, I don't know why I didn't. I put everything out of my mind. Even the things that I didn't want to forget. Do you know, for three years all I did was dream about getting out of the Section. When I did, it wasn't what I expected. This isn't freedom. This isn't freedom...

Nikita

Will we be able to see each other on the outside?

(He tell nothing)

Nikita

I had a dream last night, you said some things to me, you revealed your feelings.

Sometimes all we have is our dreams.

Nikita

Closer.

Nikita

You went through a lot of trouble to bring me back here . . . I want to know why!

Be patient.

S2 E1 Hard Landing

Nikita

So what are we going to do. You and I. Something happened between us, we can't keep on pretending it didn't happen.

This isn't the right time.

Nikita

We may never have another time. We can kiss, we can touch. There is nothing stopping us.

They will see it in our eyes, and it won't be long before they figure out the truth.

Nikita

They'll cancel us.

Yes

Nikita

I'm willing to die. As long a it means if I can live, really live for one day.

Nikita wait.

Nikita

Until when?

Until you finish rehab.

Nikita

And after that there will be another excuse.

I don't know. I just know right now it's too risky.

Nikita

I came back for you. For us to be together.

That's going to be difficult now. We'll have to be careful.

Nikita

I am tired of being careful.

Get over it.

It's ok, he's one of the good ones.

Nikita

How long have you known him for?

Since they get him in.

Nikita

He's different.

He is in what I call the 5% club.

Nikita

Dare I ask what that may be?

95% of the recruits have their souls sucked out of them the first year. For some reason this place doesn't get everybody. He's one of us.

Nikita

Where does Michael fit in?

Good question.

S2 E3 Third Person

Nikita

What's up?

Why were you with Jurgen?

Nikita

That's why you called me in?

We've been through this. He can hurt us, you shouldn't be talking to him.

Nikita

I disagree with you.

I'm not arguing, I'm telling you, stay away from him.

Nikita

Michael, you been in Section for too long, you're paranoid about everything. Jurgen doesn't want to hurt anybody. He's a decent person, why can't you accept that?

S2 E3 Third Person

Good work.

Nikita

Thanks.

Where are you going?

Nikita

Grab something to eat.

Want some company?

Nikita

Not really.

S2 E3 Third Person

... You weren't home when I called.

Nikita

I went out for dinner. Why? Is that a problem?

No.

Nikita

All right, Michael. So, what is this? So, I went out for dinner. What do you care?

(He tells nothing).

Nikita

Patented Michael answer, the blank stare. If you are jealous, just be jealous. Tell me not to see him.

Is that all it would take?

Nikita

Maybe . . . Maybe not. But at least it would be something real. Emotion. Except of this cryptic game of 20 questions.

You are right. I shouldn't have asked.

Nikita

So that's where we stand. You really don't care if I see Jurgen?

S2 E4 Approaching Zero

View quote →

This is never an easy job, sometimes unbearable for all of us. I respect Jurgen for who he is and what he tried to do. But there are certain things that are absolute. Jurgen could not be allowed to hold Section hostage.

Nikita

How could you do this Michael?

I just told you.

Nikita

Not to him, to me.

It was never my intention to hurt you.

Nikita

So that makes it ok? How far back does it go? My training with Jurgen? Or when you brought me in? The night we had together?

Birkoff

Everybody's been contacted. Walter needs you in inventory.

In a minute.

Nikita

Well, that's the first time you had the section wait for me.

When you were in his house, I was listening. I had to keep my feelings separate. That's how I live my life, Nikita. Split in two. I never let anyone see the other half, but it's there, always part of me.

Nikita

Well, that's just too little, too late. I am going to help Jurgen through this, if he lets me. Oh, I've become part of his life.

S2 E4 Approaching Zero

Has Petrosian offered you my position yet?

Nikita

Yes.

And what did you say?

Nikita

If I say no, he's going to offer it to somebody else.

That's not the point.

Nikita

What is the point?

The point is you don't have what it takes to do my job. And, if you try, you'll only end by destroying yourself.

S2 E5 New Regime

Am I under orders to please you?

Nikita

Of course….. not. He can make it easier for us. We could have the chance to spend more time together outside Section.

I wouldn't put too much trust in him.

Nikita

Okay, well, if I'm dealing with the devil, it's because sometimes the devil is the only one open for business. But that's not the problem, is it? Michael, it bothers you that I have so much more power now. You don't like it. Maybe it even makes you a little...uncomfortable.
