Ares quotes from Xena: Warrior Princess

Ares

Sometimes the best man for a job... is a woman.

Ares

[referring to Gabrielle] Ding-dong, the bitch is dead.

Ares

Call me a big softie, but I decided I like you after all.

Ares

Hmm, intersting. There's an analogy here of course. The water representing our torments, the ice the thin layer of control we like to believe over it, but it's a false confidence.

Ares

That´s the spirit, let it go! Pain is just nature´s way of sayin´: Hey, you´re alive!!

Ares

"Xena's not finished, you know. When she puts her mind to killing someone, they generally get killed. I know. I gave her that focus."

Ares

"No safe is not the word I used. Women Xena starts to move nothing is safe."

Ares

(After kissing Hope) You are so not like your mother.

Ares

She (Xena) never gives up. Even when it's hopeless.

Ares

"You don't bring me flowers anymore.

Ares

[tries to disapparate with his non-existent powers] I gotta stop trying that. I'm gonna rupture something.

Ares

(weakly) I'm in Tartarus.

Xena

Give up on me, Ares. You´re not my father.

Ares

What is a father, Xena? A man who guides you, who teaches you how to live your life. I did all for you. And I´ll never let you go.

Ares

Pain! So that's what it feels like. Not so bad really.

Gabrielle

Oh ya like it, huh? Well there's plenty more where that came from.

Xena

Are you alright?

Ares

I've been hanged, swung over a fire and nearly shishkabobed on razor sharp spikes! How do you mortals get from day to day?
