On "Our Mrs. Reynolds", where Zoe says to Wash "Remember that sex we were going to have...ever again." I love that line.

When River tells Simon "I didn't think you were going to come for me." And he responds "Well, you're a dummy." Ummm.

When Shepherd Book tells Mal that if he takes advantage of Saffron, he will go to the special place, populated by child molesters and people who talk in the theater.

There are about a million quotes. Isn't that a major part of what makes the show so special?

My two cents. Dhon ma?

I still think whoever wrote the script for The first Pirates of the Caribbean was a browncoat.

"Try not to look at her for what she is, but for what she could be."
"What's that, sir?"
"Freedom, that's what."

Isn't that what Jack Sparrow said?

"No, that sir."
"Oh, that. Just step around it. Somethin' musta been livin' in here."

"We may experience some slight turbulence, and then... explode."

Firefly and Serenity is filled with incredible and amazingly wonderful quotes, but there is one that always makes me teary. River's speech in Objects in Space. I just think it's just so heart-wrenching.

Quote:
River: I don't belong... dangerous, like you... can't be controlled, can't be trusted. Everyone can just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be... could be with the people they wanted… could live simple, no secrets.

Simon: No.

River: I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early, and I'll just fade away.

I checked and he says: "Not just the Spanish Main, luv. The entire ocean. The entire wo'ld. Wherever we want to go, we'll go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs but what a ship is... what the Black Pearl really is... is freedom."

Which is a very interesting paralell... Both these men's boats mean freedom. Maybe the writer WAS a Browncoat... ;)

Oooo...there are so many that I love....

"You don't fix faith. It fixes you." I always liked that, becuase it doesn't necessarily have to be about religion, just believing in something.

"We are just too pretty for God to let us die." That's for days when you don't feel so pretty.

"We're still flyin'."
"That's not much."
"It's enough."

Again, for days when you're not feeling so good.

On the sexy side-

"And you're pretty...pretty. Even when you're- no, especially when you're covered in engine grease."- even though he was drunk, it was great.

"Wanna?" Regardless of the original context, it's such a great versatile line.

*sigh* So many quotes, so little time.

Mine is an evil sugar high laugh! Bwahahahaha!

There are just too many quotes that work for me to pick one. I will say that the moment that gets me is at the end of The Message when they return the body to the parents. The first time I saw that episode, the music was just so good, so beautifully written, that I had a hard time believing it was actually written for a TV show.

Then, when I watched the DVD extras and I learned that when the cast was filming that scene, they already new that the series was canceled. When I see that scene now, with that music and look at their faces... <> gets me every time.

The ones that get me time and again are both from 'Out of Gas.'

"Everyone dies alone."
"You're all gonna be here when I wake up?"

And to make me smile:

"I need that in Captain Dummy talk, Kaylee."

Well if we are talking about sexy lines it would have to be the line from "Shindig" where Zoe tells Kaylee that if she was going to get a dress it would have a little slink to it.

I just watched that very scene, and I have to say, it is incredibly sexy.

Hehe, sexy lines? Well, first it would have to involve Jayne, in my case it does anyway
These all come from Heart of Gold, which I guess is the sexiest episode, ummmm, if you wanna put it like that.

SIMON:Well, let's get you lying down, take
a look at you.
JAYNE:Now that's a plan!

JAYNE: Man, my John Thomas is gonna pop off
and fly around the room, there's so
much tasty here.

JAYNE: Can I start getting sexed already?

JAYNE:Now, there's people gonna die. Ain't no way 'round that. And with people dyin' comes guts and screamin' and that can bring on all sorts of screwed-up behaviors, a person's not used to it. When the time comes, most important thing is you keep your wits about you. Clear? These here are my favorites, and you're to keep 'em comin' till there ain't no more to be had. I shoot, I run out you just hand me the next biggest and so on. Is there an understanding here?
HELEN:Yes.
JAYNE:All right, then. Lets get to work.

JAYNE: That ain't nothin'! Y'all are
pulling, not squeezing like I said.
Next one doesn't hit that board is
giving up a special treat, dong ma?

Well I guess some of those aren't so sexy as they are crude and disgusting. But that's the kinda guy Jayne is. "Pretty cunning, dont'cha think?" I've always thought was very sexy as well, just the expression on his face as he says it. (I guess it's not too hard to guess my favorite character)
