Fox Mulder quotes from The X-Files

Mulder

You really believe that story?

Scully

That story happens to be highly classified.

Mulder

It's a highly classified lie.

Scully

Death by hypovolaemia. 75% blood loss. That's over 4 liters of blood.

Mulder

I'd say the man was running on empty.

Mulder

One girl was just abducted.

Scully

Kidnapped.

Mulder

Potato, potahto.

Scully

Mulder, you're rushing me out of the room.

Mulder

No, I'm not.

Scully

You've got a girl coming over?

Mulder

What's a girl? No, I have... there's a movie I want to watch on TV. Sleep tight. See you in the morning.

Deep Throat

Actually I was.. just in the neighborhood... And wondered if I ever told you about the Lichfield Experiments.

Mulder

Hmm.. No you haven't.

Deep Throat

Well, it was the most interesting project. Highest level of classification. All records have since been destroyed. And those who knew of it, will deny knowledge of its existence. Back in the early fifties, during the height of the Cold War, we got wind the Russians were fooling around with Eugenics. Rather primitively, I might add. Trying to crossbreed their top scientists, athletes... to come up with the superior soldier. Naturally, we jumped on the band wagon.

Mulder

One girl was just abducted.

Scully

Kidnapped.

Mulder

Potato, potahto.

Scully

She was kidnapped from the social services home around 11:00pm last night. Looks like someone was afraid she might remember too much.

Mulder

Someone or something, Scully?

Scully

Connecticut state troopers set up roadblocks within half an hour. Nothing.

Mulder

Maybe they weren't looking in the right direction. (points up at the sky)

Eve 6

Take off the chains... then we'll talk.

Mulder

They're probably there for a good reason.

Eve 6

No. Bad reason. I paid too much attention to a guard. Bit into his eyeball. ..I meant it as a sign of affection.

Eve 6

You and you. You have 46 chromosomes. The Adams and the Eves... we have 56. We have extra chromosomes. Number 4, 5, 12, 16, and 22. This replication of chromosomes also produces additional genes. Heightened strength. Heightened intelligence.

Mulder

Heightened psychosis.

Eve 6

Save the best for last.

Mulder

Ten years it's taken me to forget about this woman and she shows up in my life with a case like this.

Scully

So she shows up knowing the power she has over you and then she makes you walk through fire, is that it?

Mulder

Phoebe is fire.

Mulder

There's something else I haven't told you about myself, Scully. I hate fire. Hate it. Scared to death of it.

Scully

Mulder? Are you sure you don't want me to help you out on this one?

Mulder

Sooner or later, a man's got to face his demons.

Mulder

But there have been cases of pyrokinetics, people who can control and conduct fire.

Well, I've seen fire bend around corners, seen it bounce like a rubber ball. Fire's got a certain genius, you know? A certain demon poetry. It's like it's got a mind of its own. But I've never seen one that can defy the laws of physics, not when you figure it out.

There have been some arson fires in Seattle lately and, uh, Pennsylvania that burn so hot that the firemen can't put them out - 7,000 degrees. I mean, hosing that down just makes it worse.

Mulder

How's that?

Uh, the, uh, reaction is so intense that it splits the water into hydrogen and oxygen. Just adds fuel to the fire.

Mulder

Why did you lie in your police report?

Scully

I thought it would be a better explanation under the circumstances.

Mulder

What you're really saying is that you didn't want to go on record admitting that you believed in Boggs! The bureau would expect something like that from "Spooky" Mulder, but not Dana Scully.

Scully

I thought that you'd be pleased that I opened myself to extreme possibilities.

Mulder

Dana... open yourself up to extreme possibilities only when they're the truth.

Mulder

Dana, after all you've seen, after all the evidence, why can't you believe?

Scully

I'm afraid. I'm afraid to believe.

Scully

There's something up there, Mulder.

Mulder

Ooh, I've been saying that for years.
