Callisto quotes from Xena: Warrior Princess

Xena

Things didn't work out with Hope quite the way you expected.

Callisto

No. Actually, the sight of her and Ares rolling around like weasels made me sick.

Callisto

I never thought I'd feel so good again! Seeing poor, dear Gabrielle sacrifice herself makes it all worthwhile. It finally gives me a reason for living, and I have you to thank for it, Xena!

Xena

No more living for you.

Callisto

You mean to tell me those stupid, meddling missions she goes on are going to end her up in Paradise?!

Probably not Paradise. Most likely she'll be born higher up the Karmic ladder.

Callisto

Right, she burns my family, destroys my life and I end up in Hell while she gets another shot. That's fair.

Gotta love the irony.

Callisto

Don't bother, you've already done all the damage you can to me. Thanks, by the way.

Xena

For what?

Callisto

I wanted to leave this existence and you did your best to help. But, as you can see, it didn't take. They wouldn't let me off the hook that easy.

Xena

Who's They?

Callisto

I don't know, whoever it is who does the final judging. They sent me to a place that makes Tartarus look like the Elysian Fields. They call it Hell.

Xena

Couldn't have happened to a nicer gal.

Eli

Are you sure this is how it has to be? Isn't there some other way?

Callisto

The new world can only be built on the foundation of the old one. The order of the gods must fall. And you, Eli, are the hammer.
