The Walking Dead Season 1 quotes

Welcome to Terminus.

Joe

[to Rick] Look, we can settle this. We're reasonable men. First, we're gonna beat Daryl to death. Then we'll have the girl. Then the boy. Then I'm gonna shoot you and then we'll be square.

Joe

[to Rick] What the hell are you gonna do now, sport?

[holds Carl at knifepoint] I'll kill him!

Michonne

[to Dan while aiming a revolver at him] Let the boy go.

Rick Grimes

[to Michonne as he prepares to gut Carl's captor] He's MINE.

Michonne

We went to a refugee camp. Andre and my boyfriend Mike, that was Andre's father, and our friend Terry. At the camp, it just got worse and worse. People were leaving. People giving up. But I didn't. I was coming back from a run. I saw the fences were down. I heard the moans. It was over. And Mike and Terry, they were high when it happened. They were bit. Could have stopped it. Could have killed them. But I let them turn. I made it so they couldn't bite, couldn't scratch. I tied chains around their necks. It was insane. It was sick. It felt like what I deserved, dragging them around so that I would always know. I found out that they kept me safe. They hid me. The walkers didn't see me anymore. I was just another monster.

Rick Grimes

They're gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out...

Abraham Ford

Find out what?

Rick Grimes

They're screwin' (fuckin') with the wrong people.

We should never have put up the signs. What the hell did we think was gonna happen? We brought them here.

Gareth

We were trying to do something good. We were being human beings.

What are we now, Gareth?

Rick Grimes

[to Gareth] There's a compound bow and a machete with a red handle. That's what I'm gonna use to kill you.

I don't have any friends. I mean, I know people. They're just assholes I stay alive with. I don't have any friends. The other one your friend? The woman? I used to have them. Used to watch football on Sundays. Went to church. I know I did. But I can't picture it anymore. It's funny how you don't even notice the time go by. Horrible shit just stacks up day after day. You get used to it.

Tyreese Williams

I haven't gotten used to it.

Of course you haven't. You're the kind of guy who saves babies. It's kind of like saving an anchor when you're stuck without a boat in the middle of the ocean. Been behind some kind of walls, right? You're still around, but you haven't had to get your hands dirty. I can tell. See, you're a good guy.

The signs they were real. It was a sanctuary. People came and took this place.

Carol Peletier

Just tell me where--

- And they raped and they killed and they laughed over weeks. But we got out and we fought and we got it back. And we heard the message: you're the butcher or you're the cattle.

Eugene Porter

I'm not fleet of foot. I sure as hell can't take a dead one down with sharp buttons and hella confidence.

Gabriel Stokes

I have no weapons of any kind. The word of God is the only protection I need.

Gabriel Stokes

I'm a sinner. I sin almost every day. But those sins, I confess them to God, not strangers.

Abraham Ford

I'd like to propose a toast. I look around this room and I see survivors. Each and every one of you has earned that title. To the survivors!

Abraham Ford

Is that all you want to be? Wake up in the morning, fight the undead pricks, forage for food, go to sleep at night with two eyes open, rinse and repeat? 'Cause you can do that. I mean, you got the strength. You got the skill. Thing is, for you people, for what you can do, that's just surrender. Now, we get Eugene to Washington and he will make the dead die and the living will have this world again. And that is not a bad takeaway for a little road trip.

Abraham Ford

Come with us. Save the world for that little one. Save it for yourselves. Save it for the people out there who don't got nothing left to do except survive.
