I scanned the forum, but didn't find a thread on quotes.

I cracked up out loud last night when River said to Jayne, "I can kill you with my brain."

Here’s a few, there are dozens more…….

“ If wishes were like horses we’d all be eatin steak!”

“Smells like crotch.”

“We applied the cortical electrodes
but were unable to get a neural
reaction from either patient!”

Mal quotes:

“You wanna run this ship?…..Well, ya can’t!”

Wash quotes:

“ Who’s flying this thing?…….Oh, I am!”

Shepherd Book quotes:

“If you take sexual
advantage of her, you're going to
burn in a very special level of hell.
A level they reserve for child
molesters and people who talk at the
theater.”

“ The special hell!”

There have been several threads on quotes but not for awhile. And there's always room for more.

My faves:

Rivers whole "You found me broken" bit.

Same again for the 'apple bits' and puking on Simons bed.

Jayne and his 'chain of command'.

River when she's Serenity and telling Mal not to pull faces.


Plus many others but it's bedtime now so maybe I'll be back with more.

I don't remember that one.

I gotta go with: "I'm a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar."; the whole toy dinosaur scene; "Public Relations" and actually pretty much anything said by Wash and Mal.

"I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?"

This might be Hannah PeacePerson17's favorite Firefly quote because she posted it twice over the Labor Day Weekend.

You know, I've saved lives. Dozens, Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

I do know my bible, sir. "On the
night of their betrothal, the wife
shall open to the man, as the furrow
to the plough, and he shall work in
her, in and again, 'till she bring
him to his fall, and rest him then
upon the sweat of her breast."

Whoa. Good bible.
