Quotes
-
Mal : Inara, think you can stoop to bein' on my arm?
Inara Serra : Will you wash it first?
-
Mal : You know, not wise, sneaking up on a man when he's handling his weapon.
Inara Serra : I'm sure I've heard that said. But perhaps the dining area isn't the place for this sort of thing?
Mal : What do you mean? Only place with a table big enough.
Inara Serra : Of course. In that case, every well-bred petty crook knows that the small, concealable weapons always go to the far left of the place setting.
-
Mal : Any friend of Inara's is a strictly business-like relationship of mine.
-
Mal : Well, I just, I... didn't want you thinking that I was taking advantage of your friend.
Inara Serra : She's well worth taking advantage of. I sincerely hope you did.
Mal : So you're okay. Well, yeah, why-why wouldn't you be...
Inara Serra : I wouldn't say I'm entirely okay. I'm a little appalled at her taste.
-
Mal : Well, lady, I must say, you're my kind of stupid.
-
[after Inara agrees to help a friend of hers]
Inara Serra : I suppose you heard most of that?
Mal : [peeking around the shuttle entrance] Only because I was eavesdropping.
-
Mal : Remember, shoot the man, not the horse. Dead horse is cover; live horse great pile of panic.
-
Mal : [over the radio, as Wash and Kaylee are boarding Serenity] Wash, gonna be tradin' injuries in under two minutes. Like my sky a little less empty!
-
Jayne : Don't much see the benefit in gettin' involved in stranger's troubles without a up-front price negotiated.
Shepherd Book : These people need assistance. The benefit wouldn't necessarily be for you.
Jayne : That's what I'm sayin'.
Zoë : No one's gonna force you to go, Jayne. As has been stated, this job is strickly speculative.
Jayne : Good. Don't know these folks, don't much care to.
Mal : They're whores.
Jayne : I'm in.

Mal : Math just don't add up. Our weapon store aren't exactly overpowerin' at the moment, and I don't much like what we'd be up against. Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he's right with God. We might turn Burgess away once, but he'll keep comin' - won't stop 'till he gets what he thinks is his. So we run.
