Michael Dawson quotes from Lost

Ana-Lucia Cortez

[to Eko] I liked you better when you weren't talking.

Michael Dawson

What happened to you people? You want us to take you back with us? Fine. But you want me to keep quiet then you need to tell me why I have to.

Ana-Lucia Cortez

They came the first night that we got here. They took three of us. Nothing happened for two weeks, then they came back. They took nine more. They're smart, and they're animals, and they could be anywhere at any time. Now we're moving through the jungle -- their jungle -- just so you can save your little hick friend over here. And if you think that one gun and one bullet is going to stop them -- think again. So shut your mouth and keep moving.

Michael Dawson

They took my son.

Ana-Lucia Cortez

They took a lot of things.

Walt

Who is this?

Michael

This is Michael. Who is this?

Walt

Dad?

Ana-Lucia Cortez

We caught one of them -- the Others. He's locked up in there.

Michael Dawson

How long has he...?

Ana-Lucia Cortez

Over a week.

Michael Dawson

And you're what -- taking care of him?

Ana-Lucia Cortez

He tried to kill me today, so I wanted him dead. I couldn't do it. I couldn't even kill him. I looked at him and he -- I can't do this anymore.

Michael Dawson

Then let me do it. They're animals. I've seen these people and they are animals. They took my son -- right out of my hands -- they took my son and -- I'll do it. Give me the gun. I'll kill him. Because that's what they do. [Ana gives him the gun] What's the combination?

Ana-Lucia Cortez

18 right, 1 left, 31 right.

Michael Dawson

I'm sorry.

Ana-Lucia Cortez

For what?

Michael

I hear you're a priest.

Mr. Eko

Yes.

Michael

I guess you believe in hell, then?

Mr. Eko

For a brief time, I served in a small parish in England. Every Sunday after mass, I would see a young boy waiting at the back of the church. Then one day, the boy confessed to me that he had beaten his dog to death with a shovel. He said the dog had bitten his baby sister on the cheek and he needed to protect her. And he wanted to know whether he would go to hell for this. I told him that God would understand, and that he would be forgiven, as long as he was sorry. But the boy did not care about forgiveness. He was only afraid that if he did go to hell that the dog would be there, waiting for him.

Michael

Who are you people?

"Henry Gale"

We're the good guys, Michael.
