Daryl Dixon quotes from The Walking Dead

Tyreese

How's Glenn doing?

Hershel Greene

He made it through the night. He's breathing on his own now. Maggie and Bob are with him. He seems stable enough for me to get some air.

Daryl Dixon

He's a tough son of a bitch.

Hershel Greene

He is.

Daryl Dixon

You're a tough son of a bitch.

Hershel Greene

I am.

Daryl Dixon

Peanut butter and jelly, diet soda, and pig's feet. That's a white trash brunch right there.

Beth Greene

[smiles] It all looks good to me.

Daryl Dixon

There ain't no us.

Joe

You leaving right now? No? Then it sure seems like there's an us.You a cat person, Daryl? I am. Loved 'em since I was three years old. Vicious creatures. Anyway, I'll tell you, and this is true, ain't nothing sadder than an outdoor cat that thinks he's an indoor cat.

Carol Peletier

You said we get to start over.

Daryl Dixon

Yeah.

Carol Peletier

Did you?

Daryl Dixon

I'm tryin'. Why don't you say what's really on your mind?

Carol Peletier

I don't think we get to save people anymore.

Daryl Dixon

Then why are you here?

Carol Peletier

I'm tryin'.

Noah

We can get her back. We can get Beth back.

Daryl Dixon

What's it gonna take?

Noah

A lot. They got guns, people.

Daryl Dixon

So do we.

Rick Grimes

When I was a kid I asked my grandpa once if he ever killed any Germans in the war. He wouldn't answer. He said that was grown-up stuff, so so I asked if the Germans ever tried to kill him. But he got real quiet. He said he was dead the minute he stepped into enemy territory. Every day he woke up and told himself, "Rest in peace. Now get up and go to war." And then after a few years of pretending he was dead he made it out alive. That's the trick of it, I think. We do what we need to do and then we get to live. But no matter what we find in DC, I know we'll be okay. Because this is how we survive. We tell ourselves that we are the walking dead.

Daryl Dixon

We ain't them. We're not them.

Carol Peletier

I'm gonna wash that vest. We need to keep up appearances, even you.

Daryl Dixon

Hey, I ain't starting now.

Carol Peletier

I'm gonna hose you down in your sleep.

Daryl Dixon

You look ridiculous.

I know you're feeling like an outsider. It's not your fault, you know. Eric and I, we're still looked at as outsiders in a lot of ways. We've heard our fair share of well-meaning, but hilariously offensive things from some otherwise really nice men and women. People are people. The more afraid they get, the more stupid they get. Fear shrinks the brain. They're scared of you and me for different reasons. They're less scared of me because they know me. It's less and less every day. So let them get to know you. You should go to Deanna's party tonight.

Daryl Dixon

I got nothing to prove. I met a lot of bad people out here doing a lot of bad shit. They weren't afraid of nothing.

Yeah, they were.

Daryl Dixon

Why?

Morgan Jones

Why? Because all life is precious, Daryl.

Rick Grimes

We heard the name Negan. A while back, Daryl and Abraham had a run-in with his men. Who is he?

Negan's the head of a group of people he calls the Saviors. As soon as the walls were built, the Saviors showed up. They met with Gregory on behalf of their boss. They made a lot of demands, even more threats. And he killed one of us-- Rory. He was 16 years old. They beat him to death right in front of us. Said we needed to understand, right off the bat. Gregory's not exactly good at confrontation. He's not the leader I would've chosen, but he helped make this place what it is, and the people like him.

Maggie

He made the deal.

Half of everything. Our supplies, our crops, our livestock, it goes to the Saviors.

Glenn

And what do you get in return?

They don't attack this place. They don't kill us.

Daryl Dixon

Why not just kill them?

Most of the people here don't even know how to fight, even if we had ammo.

Rick Grimes

Well, how many people does Negan have?

We don't know. We've seen groups as big as 20.

Daryl Dixon

Now, hold up. So, they show up, they kill a kid, and you give them half of everything? These dicks just got a good story. The bogeyman, he ain't shit.

Well, how do you know?

Abraham

A month ago, we took his guys out PDQ. Left them in pieces and puddles.

Daryl Dixon

You know, we'll do it. If we go get your man back, kill Negan, take out his boys, will you hook us up? We want food, medicine, and one of them cows.

Rick Grimes

Confrontation's never been something we've had trouble with.
