There are hundreds of quotes I love, ones that make me cry, give me chills or spit my milk over the keyboard (has happened, btw)but not quite so many I find downright sexy.

So I've heard him say it a million times before, but just recently he said it and it gave me shivers...

When Mal is talking to Kaylee in "Out of Gas", and he says "Wanna?"

Makes me think all sorts of things

**Edited**

Mal: You know, you ain't quite right.
River: It's a popular theory.

*clears throat and braces for bubble burst*
Actually he says "Wanna?" as in "Wanna spend time on this vessel and keep her flying?"
It still works, though, I suppose...

Oh, there are soooooo many.

Here's one, not a quote but an event: I get totally choked up when Kaylee gets shot in the pilot. I really don't like it when Kaylee gets hurt (or even threatened)...

She's asking for sexy, here, not tear-jerking. We've all talked about the tear-jerking.
I'm still trying to think of one. Plenty of characters I think are sexy, but sexy lines? None popping into my brainpan.
*edit*
Well, that whole exchange between Zoe and Wash in Shindig was sexy for some very obvious reasons... "I know all the steps" "I'll say you do at that"...

"When you can't run, you crawl, and when you can't crawl, you find someone to carry you."

While "The Message" isn't one of my favorite episodes, I really thought that line as well as the ending scenes were one of the most moving episodes of the series.

Love. You can know all the math in the 'Verse, but take a boat in the air you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells ya she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her home.

One of my favorites.

Have a better one!!!

When they're all arguing about River in Objects in Space, and Simon says so softly "She's just a kid." It always gets to me. And I love the way it gets to the other characters too.

It's not a quote in the strictest sense, but what alsways gets me is "you can't take the sky from me".
There is so much in it - Mal's defiant unwillingness to give up, to give in, to let life roll over him and destroy him. And when I'm sitting at my desk at work, I sometimes think of the sentence, remembering, what my sky is, that they can't take away. I guess, you all know ...
