Well, on the heels of the Euphemism Generator, I've discovered a Firefly Quote Generator.

http://cubemonkey.net/quotes/

Choose Firefly from the drop down list on the left and off you go.
There's also Buffy/Angel, Futurama, Calvin & Hobbes, and Hitchhiker's Guide Quotes.

Here's the first one I got today:

Mal: "Hey, no, we'll just set course for Planet of the Lonely, Rich, and Appropriately Hygienic Man. I'll just tell Wash, we can park there for a month."

**I had forgotten this line!!!

River: "Little soul big world. Eat and sleep and eat... Many souls. Very straight, very simple" Mal: "Cattle on the ship three weeks, she don't go near 'em. Suddenly, we're on Jiangyin and she's got a driving need to commune with the beasts?" River: "They weren't cows inside. They were waiting to be, but they forgot. Now they see sky and they remember what they are." Mal: "Is it bad that what she just said makes perfect sense to me?"

And - woo-hoo! - they use "keens" rather than "keels" for the "Love Keeps Her" speech. I am so absolutely certain that he says "keens." "Keels" doesn't make one bitta sense. Yet I hear that the subtitle says "keels" so that's what I see an awful lot on the boards.

I feel a little bit better now.

It takes all kinds to make the world go ‘round. Unfortunately, some are pedaling in the wrong direction...

Keels refers to a ship capsizing. Firefly and Serenity obviously utilizes a lot of sea terminology. Just wanted to help you out.

MAv - where do you find such things ??
My quote is :

Wash: (to a jar with a cow fetus, mock-serious) "Do not fear me. Ours is a peaceful race, and we must live in harmony..."

I just love Mr.Hoban Washburn !

Yeah, but a ship in trouble doesn't keel. She might keen - cry, wail - if she were hurting, but she wouldn't keel. I agree with you that that is where the confusion lies, however.

Book: "He said, 'Live with a man forty years, share his house, his meals, speak on every subject... then tie him up and hold him over the volcano's edge. And on that day, you will finally meet the man.' "
Simon: "What if you don't live near a volcano?" Book: "I expect he was being poetical." Simon: "Sadistic crap legitimized by florid prose. Tell me you're not a fan."
Book: "I'm just wondering if they were. The people who did this to your sister."

It could be the usual Joss short-hand. She could keel over if she were in trouble.

And my quote is:

Jayne: "I won't get et! You shoot me if they take me!" (Mal aims toward Jayne in an attempt to free him) Jayne: "Well don't shoot me FIRST!"

I do like that bit.

I always heard "keens" as well, and that's what's in the Visual Companion.

Book: "This is precision work; sharpshooters. From the look of these wounds, I'd say a 54-R sniper rifle. Laser sights." Jayne: "Do a lot of shooting at the abbey there, Shepard?" Book: "Rabbits."

MAL "You only gotta scare him."
JAYNE "Pain is scary..."

Kaylee: "These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I-- how 'bout that!"
Mal: "Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable."
Kaylee: "Yessir, Captain Tight Pants."

And how I do love those tight pants! Thanks for sharing this Mavourneen!

DREAMWALKER

Here's mine:

Bandit #1: "And I think maybe you're gonna give me a little one-on-one time with the missus." (Husband) Jayne: "Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature." (Wife) Mal: "How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people?" (Husband) Jayne: "If I could make you purtier, I would." (Wife) Mal: "You are not the man I met a year ago." (they suddenly draw their guns on the bandits, Mal slowly pulling his bonnet off) Mal: "Now think real hard. You been bird-dogging this township a while now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you."

Wash: This landing is gonna get pretty interesting
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: Oh God, of God, we're all going to die?

of Firefly Links.

Yep, it's definitely "keens".

keen - verb; lament; express emotion, express feelings; give verbal or other expression to one's feelings.

Mine from the quote machine:

Zoe: "So.. Trap?" Mal: "Trap." Zoe: "We goin' in?" Mal: "Ain't nothin' but a few hours out." Wash: "But, remember the part where it's a trap?"

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Thanks for posting this link!

Here is what I got:

Zoe: "You paid money for this, sir? On purpose?"

Mal: "What? Come on, seriously, Zoe. Whaddya think?"

Zoe: "Honestly, sir? I think you got robbed."

Mal: "Robbed? What? No. What do you mean?"

Zoe: "It's a piece of fei-oo." [fei-oo. = junk]

Mal: "Fei-oo? Okay, she won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon. But she's solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die."

Zoe: "Cause it's a deathtrap."

Mal: "Had a good day."
Simon: "You had the alliance on you, criminals and savages, half the people on this ship have been shot or wounded, including yourself, and you're harboring known fugitives."
Mal: "We're still flyin'."
Simon: "That's not much."
Mal: "It's enough."

Good quote to start the day with.

Once again--I love this thing:

Operative: "That girl will rain destruction down on you and your ship. She's an albatross, Captain." Mal: "Way I remember it, albatross was a ship's good luck... till some idiot killed it." (to Inara) "Yes, I've read a poem. Try not to faint."

It is kind of fun. Here's mine:
