I just love quotes their witty, funny, some times serious, and they make you think. Here are some of my favorite quotes from TV shows, movies, or from other sites that I came upon on.

As you can see, most of the quotes come from a character, Methos. Methos is a character from a TV show called Highlander: The Series. Check out my Highlander section for background information. Some of the quotes are in a dialogue with another character. The episode title is in parentheses.
