Spike Spiegel
“There are three things that I hate... kids, animals, and women with attitudes. So tell me, why are all three of them neatly gathered on our ship?!”
“The flow is more important... not power. You have to be like the water. You get it?”
“Looks like all my good karma is finally paying off.”
“I’m just watching a bad dream I’ll never wake up from.”
“I’m not going there to die; I’m going to find out if I’m really alive.”
“There once was a tiger–stripped cat. This cat died a million deaths, was revived, and lived a million lives and was owned by many different people he didn’t really care for. This cat wasn’t afraid to die. Then, one day this cat became a stray cat, which meant it was free and he met a white, female cat and the two of them spent their days together happily. Well, years past and the white cat grew weak and died of old age. The tiger stripped cat cried a million times, then he died too, except this time, he didn’t come back to life... I hate this story; I hate cats.”
“Look at my eyes Faye. One of them is fake because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I’ve been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So I thought I could only see patches of reality.” (Referring to Faye)
“I was younger then, I wasn’t afraid of anything, I didn’t think about dying for a second. I thought I was invincible. Then I met some girl. I wanted to live, I started to think like that; for the first time I was afraid of death. I had never felt like that before.”
“My ship works better when I kick it.”
Jet Black
“Are you kidding me? I was singin’ the blues since the day the doctor smacked my bottom on the day I was born.”
“Open mouth, insert foot.”
“A woman’s heart is as fickle as the skies of Ganymede.”
“There’s nothing more cruel than the mind of a child.”
“Do you know a story that goes like this? A man injured his leg during a hunt. In the middle of the savanna with no means to treat the wound, the leg rots, and death approaches. The man got onto the airplane that finally arrived and there he sees a land of pure white below him. The place glistening in the light was the summit of a snow–covered mountain. The name of the mountain was Kilimanjaro. The man thinks to himself “That was where I was headed...” I hate this story; men only think about the past right before their death, as if they were searching frantically for proof that they were alive.”
“Pamper me! Baby me! Nothin’ but trouble. Now I see why you have this attitude about women and kids.” (Referring to Spike)
“Women easily betray others, but men live for honour and duty...that’s what I’d like to believe.”
“You were always there for me, and that’s all I needed. Just you. For some reason, I didn’t feel sad or broken up, it just didn’t seem real. But slowly I realized it was real - that you were gone. And little by little, I slowly felt something inside me go numb.”
Faye Valentine
“I don’t need any comrades. They’re not worth it; I end up worrying about things I shouldn’t.”
“Edward, I finally remember where I belong. You have someone waiting for you too. There’s somewhere that you belong, Edward. You should go and find out where. It’s the best. Belonging is the very best thing there is.” (Referring to Ed)
“You know the first rule of combat? Shoot them before they can shoot you.”
“Survival of the fittest is the law of nature. We deceive or we are deceived. Thus, we flourish or perish. Nothing good ever happened to me when I trusted others. That is the lesson.”
“The past is the past and the future is the future. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. The present is the present. I am who I am and you are who you are. That’s all there is to it. Does it really matter? Or do we just think it does?”
“But I’m here today, and I’ll always be cheering for you right here... Cheering for you, my only self.”
“I tell ya, instead of being alone in a group, it’s better to have real solitude all by yourself.”
“I haven’t committed any crimes... at least no bad ones.”
Ed
“Ed will introduce Ed. Full name – Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky the 4th.”
“Ed wants chicken kabobs!”
“Ed loves Piyokos!”
“Foody food food. Do you have any? Yes you don’t! No you do!”
“Bonsai, bath toy, wise guy, water boy; lights shine bright in the O – town tonight!”
“I think I know, I don’t think I know, I don’t think – think I know, I don’t think I think.”
“High socks are cool!”
“Hot dog bun! Not too young!”
“Satellite from days of old, lead me to your access code!”
“All is fair in love and war!”
Ein
“Woof!”
“Bark!”
“Bow wow!”
