Kate Austen quotes from Lost

Kate

[to Sawyer] I don't feel sorry for you, I pity you.

Kate

[to Sun] You're preganant.

Kate Austen

[to Juliet] Welcome to the wonderful world of not knowing what the hell's going on.

Kate Austen

Since when did shooting kids and blowing up hydrogen bombs become okay?

Kate

Couple days ago, you asked me why I came back to the island... I need to find Claire. I thought, maybe if I could catch up to you, you could help me - and then, maybe if we could find her and bring her back to Aaron then maybe all of this wouldn't have been for nothing.

Kate

[as she is about to stitch up Jack's wound] Any color preference?

Jack

Nah, standard black.

Kate

I might throw up on you.

Jack

You're doing fine.

Kate Austen

You don't seem afraid at all. I don't understand that.

Jack Shephard

Well, fear's sort of an odd thing. When I was in residency, my first solo procedure was a spinal surgery on a 16 year old kid, a girl. And at the end, after 13 hours, I was closing her up and I, I accidentally ripped her dural sac. Shredded the base of the spine where all the nerves come together, membrane as thin as tissue. And so it ripped open. And the nerves just spilled out of her like angel hair pasta, spinal fluid flowing out of her and I … And the terror was just so … crazy. So real. And I knew I had to deal with it. So I just made a choice. I'd let the fear in, let it take over, let it do its thing, but only for five seconds, that's all I was going to give it. So I started to count: One, two, three, four, five. Then it was gone. I went back to work, sewed her up and she was fine.

Kate Austen

If that had been me, I think I would have run for the door.

Jack Shephard

No, I don't think that's true. You're not running now.

Kate Austen

So, what does a transceiver look like?

Jack Shephard

Complicated walkie-talkie.

Jack Shephard

Hey! Can you hear me? [to Kate] I need that water. [He gives the pilot some water] Here. Here you go. Hey.

How many survived?

Jack Shephard

At least 48. Does anything feel broken?

No, no. Just my head's a little dizzy, that's all.

Jack Shephard

Yeah. It's probably a concussion.

How long has it been?

Jack Shephard

Sixteen hours.

Sixteen? Has anybody come?

Jack Shephard

Not yet.

Six hours in, our radio went out. No-one could see us. We turned back to land in Fiji. By the time we hit turbulence, we … we were a thousand miles off course. They're looking for us in the wrong place.

Kate

Where did that come from?

Sawyer

Probably Bear Village. How the hell do I know?

Kate

Not the bear--the gun.

Sawyer

I got it off one of the bodies.

Sayid

One of the bodies.

Sawyer

Yeah, one of the bodies.

Shannon

People don't carry guns on planes.

Sawyer

They do if they're a U.S. Marshal, sweet cheeks. There was one on the plane.

Kate

How do you know that?

Sawyer

I saw a guy lying there with an ankle holster, so I took the gun. Thought it might come in handy. Guess what. I just shot a bear!

Kate

So why do you think he's a Marshal?

Sawyer

Because he had a clip-on badge. I took that, too. Thought it was cool.

Sayid

If we tell them what we know, we take away their hope... and hope is a very dangerous thing to lose.

Kate

So we lie.

Sayid

We can find food. There are plenty of things on this island we can use for sustenance.

Sawyer

And exactly how are we gonna find this sustenance?

Locke

We hunt.

Kate

How did you get that on the plane?

Locke

Checked it.

Jack

You either have very good aim, or very bad aim, Mr...

Michael

Locke. His name is Locke.

Jack

Okay Mr. Locke, what is it that we're hunting?

Locke

We know there are wild boar on the island. Razorbacks by the look of em. The ones that came into the camp last night were piglets, 100, 150 pounds each. Which means that there's a mother nearby. A 250 pound rat, with scimitar like tusks, a surly disposition, who'd love nothing more than to eviscerate anything that comes near it. Boar's usual mode of attack is to circle around and charge from behind so I figure it'll take at least three of us to distract her long enough for me to flank one of the piglets, pin it and slit its throat.

Sawyer

And you gave him his knife back?

Kate

Hey, Charlie, ask Jack about his tattoo.

Charlie

Oh, you guys have an inside joke. How absolutely wonderful for you both.

Kate

It's just that you... and the tattoos... don't add up. Were you one of those hardcore spinal surgeons or something?

Jack

That's me. Hardcore.

Charlie

If you two are done verbally copulating, we should get a move on.

Kate

[About her T-shirt] It was, uh, it was full of bees.

Charlie

I'd have thought C's, actually.

Kate

Are you serious?

Sawyer

Baby, I am tied to a tree in the jungle of mystery. I just got tortured by a damn spinal surgeon and a genuine Iraqi. Of course I'm serious.
