Gabrielle: I can't marry the king because my heart belongs to another. And even though I can't be with them now, I'm not ready to be with anyone else.

Gabrielle: I would've told her how empty my life was before she came, and all the lessons I learned...and that I love her"

Gabrielle: I'm just an over-achieving sidekick.

Gabrielle: It's not you it's me. I'm just not ready for this kind of commitment. Which is probably better for you anyway because all the men I get serious about seem to wind up dead.

Gabrielle: Look, my best friend is Xena, Warrior Princess and she is not going to like this forced wedding thing, if you get my drift.

Gabrielle: Now why don't you just cancel the pageant?
Salmoneus: Lord Clairon's tried that. Each of these guys is so invested in winning, nobody wants to quit first. The way I see it � what we need is a contestant to keep an eye on things from the inside.
Gabrielle: Oh, no, no, no! Don't even look at me. Now you know how I feel about these women being victimized by meat markets.
Xena: She's right. But war makes everyone a victim. So... meet Miss Amphipolis.

Gabrielle: Sirens? Their song is said to call all men who hear it to the death on the rocks of the island.
Xena: All men. I´m not a man.
Ulysses: Yeah, I´ve noticed.

Gabrielle: So Miss Known World is a man?
Xena: Yep.
Gabrielle: That's kind of funny, huh?
Xena: Why? Beauty is beauty.
Gabrielle: And peace is peace.
Xena: Are you going to write about this?
Gabrielle: Oh, yes. I was thinking about calling it “Queen for a �
Xena: Gabrielle.
Gabrielle: “What a drag �
Xena: Gabrielle!
Gabrielle: Okay, okay.

Gabrielle: This is sabotage!
Xena: Gabrielle, it's just a bad dress.
Gabrielle: Bad dress? Xena, Chiffon is bad. Chartreuse is bad. But this is a disaster. You will be eliminated half way down the catwalk.
Xena: Calm down. Look, if it really bothers you, I'll fix it. [Cuts dress]

Gabrielle: Well-- what? Oh. I don't have a gift for you.
Xena: Gabrielle, you are a gift to me

Gabrielle: What are you doing?
Xena: Hard to believe, but Joxer's advice about a cold swim, I'm taking it.
Gabrielle: That's not hard to believe. No no, Joxer's full of good ideas.
Xena: No, I said Joxer.
Gabrielle: I know, he's teaching me that wonderful song of his.
Xena: Gabrielle, what's going on? You barely tolerate Joxer.
Gabrielle: That was before.
Xena: Before what?
Gabrielle: Before I realized ... I love him.
Xena: What?!
Gabrielle: I know, it shocked me too, to see how blind I'd been. But, maybe that's what love is, it's blind. I should write that down.
Xena: No, Gabrielle, this is crazy. You can't be in love with Joxer. He's ... well, he's Joxer.
Gabrielle: Are you talking about my man? Like Draco is such a prize? Xena, I would rather be in love with Joxer than a blood thirsty warlord like Draco.
Xena: Draco's not like that.

Gabrielle: What's wrong with you?
Xena: Nothing that a good workout won't cure.
Joxer: Hey ... uh ... try the lake. A cold swim usually helps ... so I've been told.

Gabrielle: Xena, do you think that, deep down, Callisto feels sorry for the things that she's done?
Xena: No.
Gabrielle: I do. I have to or I can't forgive her. And if I can't forgive her, I can't move on. Goodbye, Callisto.

Gabrielle: Xena, this was our only frying pan. Why do you do that? You do have weapons, don't you?
Xena: I like to be creative in a fight. It gets my juices going.
Gabrielle: Can we cook with your juices?

Gabrielle: Xena-- oh Xena.
Cecrops: Are you out of your mind?!
Xena: Gabrielle, are you all right?
Gabrielle: Yeah, I'm fine. I'm-- seasick. I'm cursed. Actually, I'm really seasick.
Cecrops: Excuse me. Do you know who I am?
Xena: You're Cecrops. I wasn't gonna let you take off with my best friend.
