Callisto: Don't bother, you've already done all the damage you can to me. Thanks, by the way.
Xena: For what?
Callisto: I wanted to leave this existence and you did your best to help. But, as you can see, it didn't take. They wouldn't let me off the hook that easy.
Xena: Who's They?
Callisto: I don't know, whoever it is who does the final judging. They sent me to a place that makes Tartarus look like the Elysian Fields. They call it Hell.
Xena: Couldn't have happened to a nicer gal.

Callisto: You mean to tell me those stupid, meddling missions she goes on are going to end her up in Paradise?!
Hellion: Probably not Paradise. Most likely she'll be born higher up the Karmic ladder.
Callisto: Right, she burns my family, destroys my life and I end up in Hell while she gets another shot. That's fair.
Illusion Xena: Gotta love the irony.

Critic #1: I just don't buy that Xena.
Critic #2: There's the opening of Buffus the Bacchae Slayer across the street.

Cyane: Don't put your soul in her hands, Xena, she'll destroy it.
Xena: You won a spiritual duel. How'd you do that?
Cyane: Your choices are simple, side with us and find life...side with Alti and find death.

Cyane: Our holy word should have been strong enough to undo whatever it was that kept us from eternity, but still we can't pass through the gate.
Xena: Then maybe you need a new holy word, one stronger than the last.
Cyane: Our holy word is Courage. Nothing's stronger than courage.

Discord: You're telling me your horse killed her?
Xena: In self-defense.
Autolycus: You gotta admit, fits like a Trojan glove.
Discord: But I can't take back a horse. I don't do animals.
Minya: That's not what I heard.

Dustinus: Oh, by the way, I do not play quadrupeds. Make sure the role reflects that.
Gabrielle: What?
Dustinus: I do not play four-legged creatures.
Gabrielle: But, you're a centaur.
Dustinus: I am an Actor. I refuse to limit myself.

Eli: Selfless, pure Love is the only divine perfection we have in this world. It is the greatest power one can possess.
Amarice: Oh C'mon, the only real power is at the end of a sword .
(Later, Amarice runs into Roman soldiers carrying swords)
Eli: And if the other side has more swords?
Amarice: If you can love your way out of this one, be my guest.

Ephiny: We look first and then we attack.
Amarice: In my tribe looking first is like giving a warning.
Ephiny: What does your tribe think about following orders?

Gabrielle: (re: Satrina) Do you think she made it?
Xena: Probably, like she said, she's a survivor.

Gabrielle: (to Lila) I know that thing out there looks like me, but it's not. She wants to kill us all.

Gabrielle: Are you sure I was dying? Xena, the gods know that I have been tied to a cross before. You helped me then, what makes you think that this ‘vision' is different?
Xena: It was so real ... the way you looked ... the mountain in the background ... it's true, or it could be.
Gabrielle: Well, I'm not going to believe it.

Gabrielle: Hello, Brutus.
Brutus: Gabrielle, they told me you were the new leader of this tribe.
Gabrielle: Thanks to you. You killed Ephiny, our Queen ... my friend.
Brutus: Ephiny, that was her name. One of the best fighters I've met. She died as a warrior and for that I have no guilt in my actions.

Gabrielle: I fell down a hole.
Xena: Yeah. What is it with you and holes huh?

Gabrielle: I have an announcement to make. A message means nothing if no one hears it. A flower in the forest is just a plant if no one sees it.
(Cast looks around incomprehensibly)
Gabrielle: We're going to need more blood. I want more skin, I want action, I want weapons, I want battlefields with beaten bloody bodies. We're going to take this little flower and we're going to cram it down their throats for their own good.
