Favorite 'Bones' Quotes

Oh I definitely don't have one favourite quote, but I'll start with a couple I love!

Brennan: Would you like me just as much if I were a man?
Booth: Oh yeah, much better. Wouldn't have to be so polite and accommodating. How about you, would you like me better if I were a woman?
Brennan: No. I would not.
Booth: Why?
Brennan: I'd be jealous that you might be prettier than I am.
Booth: I would be too. I'd be hot. Smokin' hot.

Vincent Nigel-Murray: Triangular pubis, no evidence of a ventral arc. The pelvic bone speaks. It says "I be male."
Cam: The pelvic bone can say whatever it wants to say. This part here says female.
Vincent Nigel-Murray: What part's that?
Cam: It's called a vagina.

Brennan: Stop! Or I'll kick you in the testicles.

Daisy: Colon, end bracket, colon, capital D.
Sweets: Semi-colon, end parentheses, less than sign, numeral 3.
Daisy: Colon, capital P.
Cam: Oh dear God, I'm going to yak!

Booth: Okay, listen... We just gotta stop hanging out with geniuses because you're gonna figure out that I'm really stupid.
Brennan: What? Don't worry about that.
Booth: Hmm?
Brennan: I figured out a long time ago how stupid you are.
Brennan: What I just said is... true. And yet it... really sounded wrong. What I should say is that I don't care how stupid you are... It's not any better?
Booth: No. Not at all.
Brennan:Okay, well, there is intelligence which I have, and Mr. Nigel-Murray.
Vincent Nigel-Murray: Oh thank you.
Brennan: And Sweets, even though, his is so misdirected as to be meaningless.
Sweets: Wow. Backhand full of knuckles with that compliment.
Brennan: And Hodgins... And Angela... not so much, but she's very talented.
Angela: Thank you very much.
Brennan: You're welcome. But then there's another quality. Which is the ability to use intelligence. That is what you have.
Booth: Thanks Bones.

and I can't forget....
When you love someone, you open yourself up to suffering. That's the sad truth. Maybe they'll break your heart, maybe you'll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. The thought of losing so much control over personal happiness is unbearable. That's the burden. Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens which allow us to fly.

and yes definitely...
Booth: You know when you talk to older couples who have been in love for 30, or 40, or 50 years, it's always the guy who says, I knew. I knew, right from the beginning. Bones, I'm that guy. I'm that guy, I know!

Those are just the ones I can think of right now, but there are so many more!

Oh, I just loved this scene. As much as anything to watch Brennan squirm and to watch Booth's face.

I wonder when he started honing his skill with those big brown eyes?

I know he sure knows how to use them!
But now when I think of them I see his heartbroken face at the end of Parts in the Sum

On a happy note:

"Maybe you shouldn't have had all that pudding?" LOL!

Killer in the Concrete

Booth: Reasons for wanting a gun?
Brennan: To shoot people.

Goodman: Go polish a bone, Mr. Addy.

Booth: You know, you're a smart ass. You know that?
Bones: Objectively, I'd say I'm very smart, although it has nothing to do with my ass.

Angela: I love it when you two impersonate earthlings

Booth:ok new division of labor, you cuff em, I shoot em

Angela about Booth: I'd like to buy a ticket for that ride (me too Ange, me too)

Sweets: These action figurines? They're awesome
Booth: Still living at home there Sweets?
Sweets: No I have my own place, and before that I lived with a woman, alright.
Brennan: was that woman your mother?
Booth: Yeah, your mommy?
Sweets: No she most definitely was not my mother

Brennan: No we can't ask Jared Addison, He's dead
Sweets: WHOA she is WICKED literal

Brennan to Booth: Do ALL boys keep their masturbatory aids in their shoes or is that particular to you?
Booth: That's for me to know and you to find out

Caroline: A yuletide gathering of the Brennan criminal element

Caroline: Because you're all Dr Brennan and Special Agent Seeley Booth, and it's Christmas and I have a puckish side that will not be denied

Caroline: No Christmas tree. No Way. Not even if you squeeze his buttocks

"Whoa"
"Horse"

Booth: Wait! who goes first?
Brennan: Gun goes first.

That may be my all time favorite LOLOLOLOL!

Caroline: best i can do is arrange for you to speak at your brothers parole hearing. Maybe, looking the way you do, the judge will feel sorry for you and let him go.

Caroline: You sure must like your brother.

Caroline: Do I have this straight? You're a genius? An honest to goodness, dyed in the wool genius?
Bones: (tentatively) Yes?
Caroline:Dr Brennan, i like you, on and off .

Zach: Oh i solved that one, in my head, while having my cuppa soup.

Gordon Gordon: Temperance Brennan; your in love with her; your building a world around her.

Bones: your doing that gargonzola thing on purpose

Bones: we are talking about translation!

Booth: well you know what, you can suck it up buttercup

Bones: oh, i think i remember him curly blonde hair, blue eyes, glasses.
Booth: nope, dark hair balding
Bones: you dont even work at the jeffersonian, how do you know?


Bones: there are a lot of people here whom i recognise
Angela: they'r from work, honey.

Booth: okay get your skull, and lets vamoos

Booth: You know when you talk to older couples who have been in love for 30, or 40, or 50 years, it's always the guy who says, I knew. I knew, right from the beginning. Bones, I'm that guy. I'm that guy, I know

And there are a million more, but i think i should just stop now.

Booth: Just because you say it in that definitive tone, doesn't mean it means anything to me.

Booth: You know, evolution is long, long process. It takes hundreds of years.
Brennan: Thousands.
Booth: Why do you always have to correct me?
Brennan: To help you evolve.

Brennan: I miss organic chemistry class. Those were good times.
Zack: I miss my first microscope.
Booth: Yeah, and I miss normal people. Can we move on?

Angela: Hodgins what are you, possessed by Brennan?

S1 Ep 3

Brennan - (catches head) We're going to need an evidence bag
Booth - Heads up!
Brennan- We're gonna need a bigger bag

LOL

STOP! Or I'll kick you in the testicles!!

Goodman (to Brennan) - C'mon now, you've got partially digested, dismembered skeletal remains to examine.....that should put a smile on your face.

One of my all time favourites is Bones saying "Well they gave me medication so i feel how i imagine people of average intelligence feel all the time.".

"You're a smart ass you know that."
"Objectively I'd say I'm very smart although it has nothing to do with my ass."

"We're about 100 miles from where Jesus lost his sandals."

"I don't know - putting testicles on the outside doesn't seem like such a good idea."

"What are you trying to do?"
"Blackmail you."
"Blackmail a federal agent."
"Yes."
"I don't like it."
"I'm fairly certain you're not supposed to."

And SO many more.

"You are the only smart person I like" from The Science in the Physicist

So glad you bought that one up, it's pretty much my favourite Bones quote ever......
It always cracks me up because it's quintessential Bones....matter of fact, probably true and so not modest.

Booth - If this is fatal, I will shoot both of you

(The Man in the fallout shelter)

Alright now for a collective AWWWWWW

Booth to Bones: You are the standard.

Booth: "I am with Bones, Cam all the way. Don't doubt it for a second"

That sounded clinical but felt very insulting.

I love the entire bathtub scene from Pain in the Heart! It is MY FAVORITE scene from the entire series so far!!! I just love it when Booth stands up in the tub, standing in front of her, completely unaware that he is completely naked. Then Brennan calmly asks "Would you like a towel?" Then near the end of the scene, Brennan says "Just so you know, I find your lack of Puritan modesty very refreshing". (That's Bones talk for "I appreciate your nakedness")

I also like this scene from Death in the Saddle:

FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth: Here we are, all of us, basically alone, separate creatures, just circling each other, all searching for that slightest hint of a real connection. Some look in the wrong places, some they just give up hope because in their mind they're thinking "Oh there's nobody out there for me," but all of us, we keep trying over and over again. Why? Because every once in a while... every once in a while, two people meet and there's that spark, and yes, Bones, he's handsome and she's beautiful and maybe that's all they see at first, but making love... making love... that's when two people become one.
Dr. Temperance Brennan: It is scientifically impossible for two objects to occupy the same space.
FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth: Yeah, but what's important is we try. And when we do it right, we get close.
Dr. Temperance Brennan: To what? Breaking the laws of physics?
FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth: Yeah, Bones - a miracle. Those people, roll playing and their little fetishes, and their little sex games...that's crappy sex. Well, at least compared to the real thing.

And Brennan's science jibber-jabber from The Proof in the Pudding:

Brennan: Because you have, forbidden us from taking samples in order to estimate the osteoconductivity of the oblique taphonomic remodeling, pertaining to the midsagittal plane, a- a cephalometric transaction -- or translation -- if you will, of the intramatrix can be deduced by correlating the force displacement values with the osteogenic, angiogenic, hydrogel nanocomposite we place inside the surrogate.
