My Favourite X File Quotes...

Season One:

COLTON: All the way to the top.
SCULLY: Then I can’t wait till you fall off and land on your ass.

SPACE

MULDER: I have to admit, that fulfilled one of my boyhood fantasies
SCULLY: Yeah, it ranks right up there with getting a pony and learning how to braid my own hair

FALLEN ANGEL

MAX: Not true. We at NICAP have been following your career really closely. Ever since you became involved with the X Files.
MULDER: Following my career? How?

EVE

MULDER: One girl was just abducted
SCULLY: Kidnapped
MULDER: Potato, Potahto.

FIRE

SCULLY: What’s that?
MULDER: I told you I locked the door.
SCULLY: What do you think it is?
MULDER: Ten-to-one, you can’t dance to it

SCULLY: Three-pipe problem?
MULDER: That’s, uh, from Sherlock Holmes. It’s a private joke.
SCULLY: How private?
MULDER: Um…we knew each other in school in England. She was brilliant and, uh, I got in over my head and, uh, paid the price.
SCULLY: Mulder, you just keep unfolding like a flower.

SCULLY: (with English accent) Care to take me to lunch?

BEYOND THE SEA

SCULLY: Last time you were that engrossed, it turned out you were reading the Adult Video News.
MULDER: I didn't think you'd be in today. How are you, Dana?
SCULLY: "Dana." I'm fine, thank you.

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.

SCULLY: You set us up. You're in on this with Lucas Henry. This was a trap for Mulder because he helped put you away. Well, I came here
to tell you that if he dies because of what you've done, four days from now, no one will be able to stop me from being the one that will throw the switch and gas you out of this life for good, you son of a bitch!

GENDERBENDER

SCULLY: There's something up there, Mulder.
MULDER: Oh, I've been saying that for years.

MULDER: I know what I saw, Scully. And I saw you about to do the wild thing with some stranger.

SCULLY: Well, I can't rule out the possiblity that who we're looking for is a transvestite.
MULDER: I think Don Juan in there knows the difference between the male and the female of the species.

LAZARUS

SCULLY: I don't discount the near-death experience because it can be explained empirically by stimulation of the temporal lobe.
MULDER: I sense a big "but" coming.
SCULLY: It's my still best guess Jack's disappearance can be explained in psychological, not supernatural, terms.

MULDER: How well do you know him?
SCULLY: We dated … for almost a year. He was my instructor at the academy.
MULDER: The plot thickens.

MULDER: And for those of you ---who don't know already this one's important to me. So, uh, let's do it right.Thanks.

EBE

SCULLY: Those were the most paranoid people I have ever met. I don't know how you could think that what they say is even remotely plausible.
MULDER: I think it's remotely plausible that someone might think you're hot.

SCULLY: Mulder, you're the only one I trust.

SCULLY: I have never met anyone so passionate and dedicated to a belief as you. It's so intense that sometimes it's blinding. But there are others who are watching you, who know what I know
and whereas I can respect and admire your passion, they will use it against you. Mulder, the truth is out there but so are lies.

MIRACLE MAN

MULDER: I think I saw some of these same people at Woodstock.
SCULLY: Mulder, you weren't at Woodstock.
MULDER: I saw the movie.

MULDER: Looks like you took quite a
beating there.
SAMUEL: Penance, Mr. Mulder.
SCULLY: Some might call it a plain old bar brawl.

SHAPES

LYLE PARKER:It gave me the creeps.
SCULLY: The creeps?
LYLE PARKER: Yeah, the creeps. Don't you ever get
the creeps?

ISH: Go home, FBI.
MULDER: How'd you know?
ISH: I could smell you a mile away.
MULDER: Well, they told me that even though my deodorant's made for a woman, it's strong enough for a man.

ISH: You even have an Indian name - Fox.
You should be "Running Fox", or "Sneaky Fox".
MULDER: Just as long as it's not "Spooky Fox".

DARKNESS FALLS

MULDER: Take a good look, Scully.
SCULLY: What am I looking at?
MULDER: Thirty loggers working a clear-cutting contract in Washington
State. Rugged, manly men in the full bloom of their manhood.
SCULLY: Right, but what am I looking for?
MULDER: Anything strange, unexplainable,
unlikely... boyfriend?

MULDER: When Mt. St. Helens erupted, there was a large amount of radiation that was released from inside the earth. Strange things started
to grow. There's actually this lake where they've discovered a kind of amoeba that can literally suck a man's brains out.
SCULLY: Oh, a brain-sucking amoeba.

TOOMS

SCULLY: I was called into a meeting by Assistant Director Skinner.
MULDER: What did he want?
SCULLY: Just wanted to reel me in

MULDER: Excuse me.Could you help me find my dog?
He's a Norweigan Elkhound. His name is Heinrich.
I use him to hunt moose

SCULLY: Fox...
MULDER: And I... I even made my parents call me Mulder.
So... Mulder.
SCULLY: Mulder, I wouldn't put myself on the line for anybody but you.
MULDER: If there's an ice tea in that bag, could be love.
SCULLY: Must be fate, Mulder. Root beer.

ROLAND

MULDER: How was the wedding?
SCULLY: You mean the part where the groom passed out or the dog bit the drummer?
MULDER: Did you catch the bouquet?
SCULLY: May-be.

ERLENMEYER FLASK

MULDER: He's in a delicate position. He has access to information and indiscretion could expose him.
SCULLY: You don't know that this isn't just a game with him.
He's toying with you. Rationing out the facts.
MULDER: You think he does it because he gets off on it?
SCULLY: No. I think he does it because you do.

SCULLY: Wait a second... Mulder? I, I just want to say that I was wrong.
MULDER: It's all right, don't worry about it.
SCULLY: No, um... if you'd had listened to me, we wouldn't be here right now. I should know by now to trust your instincts.
MULDER: Why? Nobody else does.
