Whatever happens with the Regulators -- there isn't anything written about it as far as I know -- it can't amount to much.

Claire: I'm coming with you.
Jamie: If there is a war with the Regulators...
Claire: Then you will need a physician. Murtagh, Knox, Tryon, they've all made their choices, and I've made mine. You need my help.
Jamie: I always have. And I always will.

Having a baby doesn't make me a mother any more than sleeping in a stable makes someone a horse.

Frances

Claire: Why do you keep the goats indoors?
Girl: It's too cold for them in the barn.
Claire: Too cold for the goats but not for the bondservant?

Claire: He's been lying here for weeks, if not months.
Jamie: God's judgment, do you think?
Claire: Not entirely God's. Look. She's been feeding him just enough to keep him alive.
Jamie: In misery.

So time, space, history be damned.

Claire

Roger: Well, it's a moot point, isn't it? Brianna and I can't go back until we know whether Jemmy can hear those stones.
Claire: That could be tomorrow or a year from now.
Roger: Or never.

I can only hope one day to be granted a parcel of land that's half as prosperous as yours. Perhaps when we catch Fitzgibbons and see him hanged. Perhaps then, the governor will be so kind.

Knox

Knox: Still feeling that sympathy, colonel?
Jamie: I didna think them capable of this.

Brianna: You want to go back, don't you? You're ready.
Roger: Who knows? Maybe I want Jamie to part of the Tufty Club.
Brianna: There are plenty of squirrels here. We could pick one, name it Tufty. Done! Welcome to the club. Look. Maybe we should be glad. Jem doesn't need road safety here. At least we know he'll never be hurt in a car accident.
Roger: Brianna.
Brianna: Our family is here.
Roger: You and Jemmy are my family. James Fraser is my colonel.
Brianna: And what about mama?
Roger: You don't want to leave them.

What have I done? I've become the very thing I despise. I am a hypocrite.

Knox

This is what a world without civility looks like.

Outlander Quotes

Sex was our bridge back to one another. The one place where we always met. Whatever obstacles presented themselves during the day or night, we could seek out and find each other again in bed. As long as we had that, I had faith that everything would work out.

Claire voiceover about Frank

The war had taught me to cherish the present because tomorrow might not ever come to pass. What I didn’t know at the time was that tomorrow would prove less important than yesterday.
