Xena: New outfit. New religion. Same old wacko underneath.

Xena: No you lied to me. I trusted you and you lied to me. Now Solan is dead. My son is dead, because of you.

Xena: No, no, yes, no. I tried that. Yes, both ways. No, I don't know. No, again. Are there any more questions? Good.

Xena: Now, you listen to me. Gabrielle was never useless. She cared for others more than herself

Xena: Oh, don't bother the dears. They're sleeping.

Xena: Oh, that's right. You're fated to rule the world. Do you really believe that?
Julius Caesar: Of course. Each event in our life is part of a great plan. There are no accidents. Only destiny.
Xena: And who shapes this destiny - the gods?
Julius Caesar: Perhaps. Or it's the blood in our veins, our souls, our desires, our will. They're all in it, together, weaving a tapestry we call destiny.
Xena: Well, I can tell you one thing about your destiny: you're fated to have dinner in my cabin tonight.

Xena: People of Peleos, may I present to you Philipon of Crete, Reformer of warlords, dancers and evil people. It's said that he once convinced the King of Thieves himself to do a good deed for no reward other than his own virtue.
Istafan: The King of Thieves, that degenerate blowhard.
Autolycus: Beg your pardon?
Istafan: Sinners like him never have the courage to be really successful. I'm sure he's just a fraud and an idiot.
Autolycus: Ha ha ha, no doubt. Would you excuse me? (to Xena) This plan of yours, does it involve humiliating that horse's ass?
Xena: Yep.
Autolycus: Then I'm in.

Xena: Pheidippides, can you run on to Athens and tell them about Marathon?
Pheidippides: Yes.
Xena: Good. Pace yourself. In this heat, a run like that could kill you.

Xena: See how calm the surface of the water is. That was me once. And then....(throws the rock in)....the water ripples and
churns. That's what I became.
Gabrielle: But if we sit here long enough it will go back to being still again. You'll go back to being calm.
Xena: But the stone's still under there. It's now a part of the lake. It might look as it did before but it's forever changed.

Xena: She's not dead. I wouldn't let her. Come on, Gabrielle, wake up. Come on, wake up! Come on, wake up! You're scaring me! Wake up! Wake up! Gabrielle breathe. Breathe.

Xena: So, how's she been?
Herodotus: Without you ... just fine.
Xena: I meant after everything she's been through.
Herodotus: You should know, seducing her away from home with your heroics, filling her head with strange ideas. How's she been? Changed forever ... because of you.

Xena: Something about me you find interesting?
Ephiny: Yes.
Xena: Wanna tell me?
Ephiny: No.
Xena: Then stop staring at me before I take your eyes out.

Xena: Take this child. He's my son, and the son of Borias. If he stays with me, he'll become a target for all those who hate me... and he'll learn things a child should never know. He'll become like me.

Xena: That's the funny thing about people. Just when you think you've got them figured out they show a completely different side to their character.
Gabrielle: I know what you mean.

Xena: The first time you pick up a sword, you become a target. And the moment you kill...everything changes. Everything.
