- Jamie Fraser: Be Yuletide by the time we get back to Leoch.
- Claire Randall: Christmas. I don't suppose you hang stockings by the fire.
- Jamie Fraser: To dry them off, you mean?
- Claire Randall: Never mind.
- Claire Randall: I was back to the place where it had all begun. So much had happened. So much had changed. Last time I was here I was Claire Randall, then Claire Beauchamp, then Claire Fraser. The question was, who did I want to be?
- Claire Randall: [referring to the heavy knife] It's too long and heavy for me.
- Rupert MacKenzie: Lasses say that to me all the time.
- Jamie Fraser: Can I ask you a question?
- Claire Randall: Of course.
- Jamie Fraser: I don't mean to say you have a vast knowledge of men, but...
- Claire Randall: Out with it.

- Claire Randall: It's often like this. But no, this isn't usual. It's different.
