Mikael quotes from The Originals

Mikael

Niklaus is an abomination! You do not talk to abominations! You do not reason with them or try to change them... you erase them.

Mikael

I am Mikael, the vampire who hunts vampires!

Mikael

[to a group of werewolves] You filthy dogs.

Mikael

[to Elijah] Hello son. We have some unfinished business.

Mikael

[to Cami] I have fought through more pain than anyone living or dead, but once I feed, I shall be restored. Not on you. You, my dear, are leverage. Once I threaten to dismember you in front of him, Klaus will hesitate, and in that moment of weakness, I shall end him.

Mikael

In times of need, even the devil eats flies.

Mikael

You're a lucky man. Men search the world over for a woman like her.

Marcel

Well, she's taken, friend.

Mikael

Oh, I can see that. It's just that she reminds me so much of my departed wife as a girl. See, I've been traveling for such a long time that it's a blessing to see a familiar soul so far from home.

Marcel

I'm sorry for your loss.

Mikael

Here's to old faces in new places. I've been in New Orleans for a day, and I find it to be quite surprising. Had I known of its charm and fascinating denizens, I would have come ages ago. Don't supposed I have to thank you for extending this invitation.

Marcel

Who are you ?

Mikael

Oh, you're a smart man. I think you know. I'm an intelligent man myself, so have a seat. Let me tell you what I learned about you this afternoon, Marcel Gerard. You chafe under the control of my son Niklaus and would do just about anything to get rid if him, even call the one man on this earth who hates him more than you do, but I couldn't understand what you hoped to gain. Rule of this city? Well, as I said, New Orleans has its charms, but to call me? The one they call 'The Destroyer', the one who's burnt cities far more charming to the ground in pursuit of his children? But now I see. You did it for love, the love of my daughter.

Marcel

Don't you dare touch her.

Mikael

Mm, so I'm going to make you a promise. I won't hurt Rebekah. Truth be told, she was always my favorite. And this city, you can have it, but first...you must tell me where to find my son.

Mikael

Stand with me or fall with him. (Klaus) Choose son.

Elijah

I will always choose him.

Klaus

So Mikael If you're going to kill me, then get on with it.

Mikael

Au contraire, Niklaus. Some things remain unsaid. For instance, you were right to be proud of your achievement here. As I walked the streets, your name was spoken of in reverent tones by the city's finest. So after I kill you, I will remain here in New Orleans until every last person who remembers you is dead. The deeds of the mighty Klaus will be remembered by no one. And you, boy, will simply never have existed.

Mikael

Confrontation is inevitable, child. Your fear will prove to be our greatest disadvantage.

Davina Clare

I'm not afraid.

Mikael

Well, you should be.

Mikael

I was half your age the first time my father gave me the staff. I would have torn every muscle rather than let him see me strain, and had I He would have corrected me.

Davina Clare

No offense, but your dad sounds like a jerkwad.

Mikael

Mothers love their children. Fathers make them strong.

Klaus Mikaelson

You're outnumbered. Are you going to beg for your miserable life?

Mikael

You think having people makes you strong? It proves how weak you are. Come find me when you don't have fools, women, and children fighting your battles.

Freya Mikaelson

Do you not recognize me? Can you not see the daughter you thought died so long ago?

Mikael

You lie!

Freya Mikaelson

You named your sword Rawthul after the early morning sun. It's hilt was golden like the color of my hair. You said it would remind you of me while you were in battle, that I'd be by your side no matter how far afield you traveled.

Mikael

It can't be...

Freya Mikaelson

The night before you left for war, you christened that sword with goat's blood. When I awoke, you were gone. I never saw you again.

Mikael

It's been a thousand years. How is this possible?

Freya Mikaelson

I was taken by Dahlia. I'll explain everything. Just say you believe me.

Mikael

[tearfully] My beautiful Freya. My daughter.

Klaus Mikaelson

Your mind always drifts to violence, doesn't it, even when you're so clearly outmatched. What was it you tried teaching us? Ah, yes, £the true viking warrior hones his fear like a blade"!

Mikael

Did you come here to critique my parenting skills or to whine about how little you were loved? You were weak before, but you are weaker still. If you truly thought me weak, you would snatch this weapon from my hand, but you don't because you know better.

Klaus Mikaelson

Davina, whatever you may think of me, I am a man of my word.

Mikael

Actually, he's a liar, a beast, and a degenerate, but in this exceptional instance, he may be of some use.
