Sayid Jarrah quotes from Lost

Jack Shephard

[about the hatch] Best case scenario there's supplies -- worst case, we use it as a shelter.

Sayid Jarrah

Actually, Jack, I can think of much worse cases than that. You notice anything about this hatch? There's no handle. Could the reason for that be more obvious?! Maybe it was never meant to be opened from the outside.

"Henry Gale"

What do you want?!

Sayid

[punches "Henry"] I WANT YOU TO TELL ME THE TRUTH!

Sayid

But there's no way that I could explain this to Locke and Jack for they have already forgotten.

Charlie

Forgotten what?

Sayid

That you were strung up by your neck and left for dead. That they kidnapped Claire and she was gone for weeks during which God only knows what happened to her. That these people, these Others are merciless and will stop at nothing to get what they want. So, tell me Charlie, have you forgotten?

Sayid Jarrah

There is a man down in the Hatch. A stranger captured by Rousseau. I beat him. I beat him badly.

Charlie Pace

Why are you telling me this, Sayid?

Sayid Jarrah

Jack asked me how I knew -- knew for sure that this man was lying. How I knew for sure that he was one of them -- one of the Others. I know because I feel no guilt for what I did to him. -- But there is no way I can ever explain that to Jack, or even Locke, because both of them have forgotten.

Charlie Pace

Forgotten? What?

Sayid Jarrah

That you were strung up by your neck and left for dead. That Claire was taken and kept for days during which god only know what happened to her. That these people -- these Others -- are merciless, and can take any one of us whenever they choose. So tell me, Charlie, have you forgotten?

Ana-Lucia

Sayid, can I talk to you?

Sayid

Of course.

Ana-Lucia

Alone?

Sayid

Whatever you need to say, you can say it here.

Ana-Lucia

It's about the hatch.

Charlie

Oh, you mean the guy locked in the closet there?

Sayid

Do Jack and Locke know about this?

Ana-Lucia

Jack and Locke are a little too busy worrying about Locke and Jack.

Sayid

[to Desmond] I need your boat.

Desmond

I wouldn't waste your time. There's nothing out there pal.

Sayid

I'm not going out there. I need to get to the north shore of the island, and quickly.

Desmond

Off to see the hostiles are ya?

Sayid

The what?

Desmond

You know what? Ignorance is bliss.

Sayid

[To Sun] I'm sorry if what I said was unclear. But I asked Jin to come.

Sun

You need someone to translate. And you also need at least two people who know how to sail.

Sayid

Desmond managed on his own.

Sun

And look where he ended up.

Sun

Why are you lying to me, Sayid?

Sayid

And what would you know about lying, Sun?

Sun

You're putting our lives in danger.

Sayid

I'm fairly certain our friends have been captured. There are tracks all over the dock. They're fresh -- as recent as yesterday.

Sun

You said this dock was abandoned.

Sayid

That would be part of the lying you mentioned.

Locke

Eko, what is it?

Sayid

What did he just say, John?

Locke

He said--'We're next.'

Sayid

Kate, if you were looking for help to find Jack, why didn't you ask us?

Kate

Two reasons: you don't know where to look and you're not motivated. And I don't blame you. Why would you want to go on another trek across the island, risk more lives just to get Jack back?

Locke

You're wrong.

Kate

Oh, really? They why didn't you come after-

Locke

Not about the motivation, just about knowing where to look. We got a compass bearing, and I'm pretty sure if we follow it, it'll lead us right to 'em.

Kate

How?

Sayid

Because of the way the sunlight hit Mr. Eko's stick when John was burying him.

Mikhail

Будьте вежливы, они - мои гости, Надия.

Sayid

What did you just say?

Mikhail

I told Nadia to be polite, because you are my guests.

Sayid

Nadia?

Mikhail

After Nadia Comaneci. The greatest athlete the world has even known. We have the same birth date. [...mumbling] Now, excellent work if I say so myself.

Sayid

Thank you, Mikhail.

Mikhail

Perhaps, you can give me your forgiveness if I offer you some ice tea. I will also check on your friend.

Sayid

What's wrong?

Kate

Doesn't make any sense. Why would they let him stay here, with all this stuff, all this equipment?

Sayid

Actually, it makes perfect sense.

Kate

What are you talking about?

Sayid

The reason they let him stay here is because he is not DHARMA. He is one of them.

Kate

He shot you and you just let him-why are we still sitting here?

Sayid

We are sitting here, Kate, because I am certain he is not alone.

Mikhail Bakunin

I grew up in Kiev and joined the Soviet Army. I was stationed at a listening post at Vladivostok. After the Cold War, after we lost the Cold War, my unit was decommissioned. I was dismissed from my life in the military. And after years of conducting unpleasant actions against our enemies, I found myself wanting to do something good. So I replied to a newspaper advertisement.

Sayid Jarrah

An advertisement?

Mikhail Bakunin

'Would you like to save the world?' it read. That's how I met them, the Initiative. They're very secretive, very rich, very smart.

Sayid Jarrah

So, when did you come to the island?

Mikhail Bakunin

11 years now. I like computers, communications equipment, being alone like a lighthouse keeper. So they put me in this station. They called it The Flame.

After my husband and I first arrived to Paris, I was afraid to ever leave our apartment. So I would stare out in the window into the alley, and I would see this cat looking for scraps. One day some children came into the alley and trapped him in a box. I watched them light firecrackers and drop them in the box. I could hear him howl from three stories above. So finally, I had a reason to leave my apartment. I rescued this cat and I brought him home. He sits with me when I read, sleeps with me, and he purrs. But, every once in a while, he will bite me or scratch me. He does this because sometimes he forgets that he is safe now. So I forgive him when he bites me, because I remember what it is like to never feel safe. And that is because of you. So today, I ask only one thing of you: I ask you now to show me the respect by acknowledging what you did to me. That it was you who questioned me, tortured me and that you remember me.

Sayid Jarrah

I remember you. I remember your face. Your face has haunted me ever since I left Iraq. [crying] I am sorry. I am so sorry for what I did to you. I am sorry.

I forgive you. When my husband returns, I will tell I made a terrible mistake, that it was not you, and he will release you.

Sayid Jarrah

Why? Why are you letting me go?

We are all capable of doing what those children did to this cat. But I will not do that. I will not be that.
