| "No. No. How many times have we been here before, Scully? Right here. So close to the truth and now with what we've seen and what we know to be right back at the beginning with nothing." --Mulder to Scully in FTF |

| "No it isn't! You were right to want to quit! You were right to want to leave me! You should get as far away from me as you can! I'm not going to watch you die, Scully, because of some hollow personal cause of mine. Go be a doctor. Go be a doctor while you still can." --Mulder to Scully in FTF |
| Mulder: "Who did you identify with when you were a kid? Betty or Wilma?" Scully: "I identfied with Betty's bust line." --From Detour |
| "You want to kill me, Alex, kill me. Like you killed my father.Just don't insult me trying to make me understand." --Mulder to Krycek in Existence |

| ISH: "...You even have an Indian name - Fox. You should be "Running Fox", or "Sneaky Fox"." MULDER: "Just as long as it's not "Spooky Fox"." --From Shapes |

| "...I know your blood type, resting heart rate and your childhood fear of clowns. I know the name of your college boyfriend, your true hair color, your ATM pin number, favorite charity and pet peeves. I know you spend too much time alone, and I know one lonely night you invited Mulder into your bed. I was as surprised as you are." --Shadow Man to Scully in Trust No1 |
| "Ordinarily men do not pursue occupations against their own inclinations unless there's some strong countervailing reason. Seeking the love or approval of a woman, perhaps? Agent Reyes may have affection for you, but you for her? Of course it could be someone else. Or something else. Some... dark secret from your past. An unsolved tragedy for which you feel responsible. In some morbid way you haven't even admitted to yourself, perhaps you feel that... chasing ghosts will answer the questions which damn you." --Kobold to Doggett in Daemonicus |
| DOGGETT: You're not answering my question, Professor. KOBOLD: About why someone so ill-suited would draw this duty. Clearly, you have feelings for her. DOGGETT: You ordered Dr. Richmond to kill these people, didn't you? KOBOLD: But you can't compete with the long-lost Agent Mulder. With his easy good looks, his Oxford education. DOGGETT: This is about you, Professor. KOBOLD: Mulder has what you can't have. What you stumble for. The flat-footed cop, thinking he could put handcuffs on a demon. --From Daemonicus |
| CABALLERO: Why would you want to remember? You can't tell me you're happier now, because you recall your life. I saw it all. So much pain. Why would you want to struggle, so long, and hard, to get that pain back? DOGGETT: Because it's mine. --From John Doe |

| "Pissing people off comes with the territory, Agent Doggett. It's part of working on the X-Files." --Mulder to Doggett in Essence |
| SKINNER: Yeah, we'll get there. Some business we need to clear up. Personal business. About Scully's baby, about who the father is. MULDER: (smiles) Ahh... Yeah, I hear there's a pool running down at the FBI, placing bets. SKINNER: I've had my suspicions. That is, until I found out that you had questions. Questions about Scully's pregnancy itself. MULDER: You want to know who the father is, that's Scully's business. But if you're asking me how a woman who was diagnosed as barren and unable to conceive is about to give birth in a couple days, that's an answer I can't honestly give. --From Essence |
