You're honoring the river, kaltaka.
VVanessa
Honor life.
Well, you have a funny way of showing it. They killed hundreds of us.
VVanessa
You killers. You kill trees, earth, all. And when we say ‘no, go from here,' you kill Pomira.
S4 E11Daughter of Pomira
Gabrielle, because of you, Rahl and Adiah now know that their daughter is alive and happy, and not dead like they thought. And because of you, Vanessa has two loving homes. And because of you, for the first time ever, there is peace between us and the Hor ... the Pomira.
I did all that? And they call you the hero?
You wanna switch? Fine. You kick butt and I'll take notes.
S4 E12If The Shoe Fits
Why did you run?
AAlesia
Have you ever heard Joxer tell a story?
Well, that's a good point, but all fairy tales have a purpose, and even when Joxer tells them there's a message there.
AAlesia
Yeah... run.
S4 E13Paradise Found
It's beautiful, don't you think?
Yeah, in that yucky-I'm-in-paradise kind of way.
I fell down a hole.
Yeah. What is it with you and holes huh?
You've got a good heart, Gabrielle, it's pure and it's honest and no one should ever hurt you.
I want to ask him to teach me his breathing techniques. Will you come with me?
Thanks, but I've been breathing just fine on my own for years now.
S4 E14Devi
What's up?
Us. At least, we should be. Come on, get up. We could go do some Yoga, get something to eat. We can be on the road by noon.
Yoga? We're going to do Yoga? As in you and me? (Chuckles) Okay, who are you and what have you done with Xena?
Ha ha.
I'm warning you, Tataka, get out while you still can.
TTataka (in Gabrielle's body)
And give up this face and this firm, strong body? Not a chance.
S4 E15Between the Lines
NNaima
There is a great Evil in the future that is hunting Xena's soul. It has found her. If it succeeds, Xena's karmic cycle will end, along with all the good of her future lives.
Who is her enemy?
NNaima
I don't know. I had to send her there quickly to defend herself. I was not able to tell her much before she left.
Send me there.
NNaima
I'm not sure that's wise.
This ‘karma' that you're talking about, can you see mine? Can you see how much Xena is a part of that?
NNaima
Yes, in many lives ... past and future.
What's she told you about me, little girl? Has she told you about my powers? Has she told you about this? (shows Gabrielle Xena's vision of their deaths) That's my gift to you. That's your future. She's responsible for your death.
You BITCH!
S4 E16The Way
HHanuman
How wonderful. You climb tress just like one of us. You must have learned from monkeys.
Nope. Amazons.
KKrishna
You must open up you heart to me if you are going to tap into the strength which will allow you to defeat Indrijit.
I thought that's what the prayers were for.
KKrishna
That got my attention. Now you have to go one step further. You have to embrace the Way.
The Way? I've heard about the Way in Greece, Chin, Anatolia and now India. I don't get it. The Way is not for people like me.
KKrishna
You're wrong. You're very close to the Way now. However, missing it by the width of a hair is the same as missing it by the height of a mountain.
That close, I don't think so. I don't have the patience of Gabrielle, the Love of Eli or the serenity of my mentor Lao Ma. I'm just an angry, ass-kicking ...
KKrishna
... warrior.
Yes, a warrior.
KKrishna
You say that with disgust.
Well, it doesn't rank up there with the saints, does it?
Xena... Since I met you I've been on this spiritual quest.I've been looking for the meaning to it all.Why don't you ever ask those questions?
As a matter of fact I have been thinking a lot about reincarnation since we came to India.
You see maybe being a warrior is not the right karma for you. Maybe you should look to peace.
Maybe violence isn't the answer to anything. (stabs a guy-demon with the stick) Why are you following us?... (in the battle Xena hesitates due to overthinking and gets a wound)
What's the matter?
It's this wound. That demon should have never gotten a blade on me.
Xena, you're only human.Everybody loses focus sometimes.
It's not just that I lost focus.It's why.A few days ago I saw my future life. You saw it, too.I am destined to be reborn as some kind of saint.
But that's wonderful, isn't it?
Yes, but if I already earned that karma...can I still mess it up?Maybe I was shown my future life for a reason. Maybe I'm supposed to change the way that I'm living this life, here and now.But either way a warrior cannot ask these question in the heat of battle. When the kill is there, you have to take it.If I can't do that, I can't be a warrior anymore.
