Mulder: "Ah, you got to love this place. Every day it's like Halloween."
Section Chief Blevins: "Agent Mulder. What are his thoughts?"
Scully: "Agent Mulder believes we are not alone."
Mulder: "Do you believe in the existence of extraterrestrials?"
Scully: "Logically I would have to say no. Given the distances need to travel from the of reaches of space the energy requirements would exceed a spacecraft's capabilities —"
Mulder: "Conventional wisdom..."
Scully: "The answers are there, you just have to know where to look for them."
Mulder: "That's why they put the 'I' in FBI.
Mulder: "Our boys came out here, spent a week, enjoyed the local salmon, which with a little lemon twist is to die for, if you'll pardon the expression."
Mulder: "The guy obviously needed a longer vacation." [Dr Nemman has just caused a scene over the exhumation]
Mulder: "Whatever happened to playing a hunch, Scully? The element of surprise, random acts of unpredictability? If we fail to anticipate the unforeseen or expect the unexpected in a universe of infinite possibilities, we may find ourselves at the mercy of anyone or anything that cannot be programmed, categorised or easily referenced... What are we doing up here, Scully? It's hotter than hell."
[Mulder is staring at the drink vending machine rigged up as a bomb, when his phone rings startling him]
Mulder: "Scully, you know that face I just showed you? I'm making it again."
Mulder: "Five years together, Scully. How many times I been wrong? Never... Not driving, anyway."
Mulder: "There's an interesting work of fiction on page 24. Mysteriously, our names have been omitted.
Scully: [voiceover] "Time passes in moments... moments which, rushing past, define the path of a life, just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making, or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed. But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?"
Mulder: "Nothing. There was no event. No crop circles. Big waste of time."
Scully: "Maybe sometimes nothing happens for a reason, Mulder."
Scully: "A screenwriter?"
Wayne Federman: "It's actually... It's a writer-slash-producer."
Mulder: "Well, that's actually just a hindrance-slash-pain in the neck."
Mulder: "Well, you know, sometimes truth can be stranger than fiction."
Wayne Federman: "Well, fiction is quicker than truth and cheaper. You want my advice? You're both crazy."
Mulder: "Well, why do you say that?"
Wayne Federman: [to Mulder] "Well, you're crazy for believing what you believe." [to Scully] "And you're crazy for not believing what he believes.
Cardinal O'Fallon: "I thought they were real. I hated them, I despised them. I would have liked to destroy them, but I couldn't. Is being made a fool of a crime, Agent Mulder?"
Mulder: "I'd be doing life if it were, sir."
Skinner: "Misidentification of a corpse and subsequent unrequested autopsy..."
Scully: "Sir, the dead man looked very much like Micah Hoffman. He had Hoffman's ID on him..."
Skinner: "Agent Scully... if I'm carrying Marilyn Monroe's purse, do you assume that I slept with JFK? Agent Mulder, the FBI has always prided itself on the speedy expedition of its cases but this is the first time — and I hope you're as proud of this as I am — that we've ever attempted to pursue a murder case where the victim was still alive and healthy."
Mulder: "A bomb went off, a crime's been committed. There's a dead body nobody seems to give a damn about, O'Fallon's been less than forthcoming, and Hoffman, at the very least is guilty of forgery and extortion."
Skinner: "Agent Mulder, you will leave O'Fallon alone. You will leave Hoffman alone and Agent Scully, you'll put your trigger-happy scalpel away. Best case scenario... you get to keep your jobs. Worst case, O'Fallon and the church bring a huge, embarrassing lawsuit against the Bureau which will feature you two as its sacrificial lambs. As of right now... I am forcing you to take a four-week leave effective immediately pending review."
