Boone Carlyle quotes from Lost

Boone

[about Shannon's asthma] She's been embarrassed about it since she was a kid. I guess breathing isn't cool.

Boone

Tell Shannon... Tell Shannon... Tell... [dies]

Boone

[To Shannon, at her father's funeral] Death sucks, doesn't it?

Boone

[as Locke tries to call out to Jack, Kate and Sawyer] There's nothing you can do for them yet. First you have to clean up your own mess.

Boone

[to Locke, after he sees Eko's Jesus stick drenched in blood] They've got him, John. You don't have much time.

Jack

[as Boone is trying to give CPR to Rose] Stop! Her head's not tilted back enough, you're blowing air into her stomach.

Boone

Are you sure? That was exactly what I was doing. I'm a lifeguard, I'm licensed.

Jack

Yeah, well you seriously need to think about giving that license back.

Boone

Maybe we should do one of those hole things? You know, stick the pen in the throat?

Jack

[sarcastically] Yeah, good idea, you go get me a pen!

Boone

Hey, does anyone have a pen?

Boone

Someone else was stranded here?

Charlie

Guys... where are we?

Shannon Rutherford

I've just been through a trauma here, okay?

Boone Carlyle

We've all been through a trauma. The only difference is, since the crash, you've actually given yourself a pedicure.

Shannon

The ocean's full of fish.

Boone

Hate to break it to you...the ocean's not gonna take your gold card.

Hurley

We just had a little incident in the valley last night.

Shannon

An incident?

Hurley

Yeah. Claire, the pregnant girl, you know her. She, uh, kinda got attacked.

Shannon

What?

Boone

She's okay?

Hurley

Yeah. She's a little shook up.

Shannon

I am so not moving to the rape caves!

Boone

Red shirt. You ever watch Star Trek?

Locke

No, not really.

Boone

The crew guys that would go down to the planet with the main guys, the captain and the guy with the pointy ears, they always wore red shirts and they always got killed.

Locke

Yeah?

Boone

Yeah.

Locke

Sounds like a piss poor captain.

Boone Carlyle

So, not to be too difficult, but we've been coming here for two days just staring at this thing. I'm not really sure what we're supposed to be doing.

John Locke

Ludovico Buonarrati, Michelangelo's father. He was a wealthy man. He had no understanding of the divinity in his son, so he beat him. No child of his was going to use his hands for a living. So, Michelangelo learned not to use his hands. Years later a visiting prince came into Michelangelo's studio and found the master staring at a single 18 foot block of marble. Then he knew that the rumors were true -- that Michelangelo had come in everyday for the last four months, stared at the marble, and gone home for his supper. So the prince asked the obvious -- what are you doing? And Michelangelo turned around and looked at him, and whispered, sto lavorando, I'm working. Three years later that block of marble was the statue of David.

Boone Carlyle

We're not going to stare at this for 4 months, are we?

Boone

[between raspy breaths] I know you made a promise. I'm letting you off the hook. Let me go, Jack.

Jack

I'm sorry.

Boone

Don't be.

Boone Carlyle

You're not pulling my leg, are ya?

John Locke

Why would I pull your leg?

Boone Carlyle

[laughing] This thing goes down, I'm sticking with you.
