I am the Committee of Safety, Mr. Fraser. I have a responsibility to the people of these parts.

Brown

I never thought hearing a litany of your near-death experiences would bring me so much peace. Or maybe it's just the nearness of you.

Claire

I do believe I've picked up a few lice myself. Like father, like son, eh?

Roger

I told you I would fight for you, Bear Killer.

Chief Twiskwa

We need more guns.

Jamie

Don't worry, Mr. Fraser. Salisbury might not have a court, but I made sure the whole town knew your wife was guilty. Word's spreadin' like wildfire now.

Brown

Jamie: You need to be wed. The sooner the better. Which one of them is it to be then, lass.
Lizzie: I canna, I dinna want to choose. I love them both.
Jamie: It's not a matter of who you love now. Ye've a child in yer belly. Nothin' matters but doin' right by it and doesna mean painting his mother as a whore.
Lizzie: I'm not a whore.
Jamie: I didna say ye were, but others will when wor gets around what ye've been up to, lass. Spreadin' yer legs for two men and wed to neither. Now wi' a bairn, and ye canna name its father.
Lizzie: I can name him. His name will be Beardsley. Ye dinna understand. They're one soul in two bodies.
Jamie: If ye care about the fate of that soul, ye'll have those two bodies standing before me, imminently. Now, where are they?

Lizzie: Please, Mr. Fraser. Are we goin' to do it here in the stables?
Jamie: Christ was born in a manger. Twas good enough for Him.
Jamie: Since ye canna choose amongst yourselves, short straw weds her.

I'll see one of them wed to Lizzie or both Beardsleys dead at her feet.

Jamie

Jamie: After Wentworth, you found me in the dark. I let you into my mind and my soul. Let me do the same. Dinna lock me out. Let me join you. I canna do that when you put yourself to sleep. We have to face this together. Claire, dinna sentence yerself to crimes that no one is chargin' ye with. If you're selfish, let me be accused of the same crime. I dinna care about the right or wrong of it, so long as you are here wi' me. If it's a sin that you chose me, then I will go to the devil himself and bless him for temptin' you to it.
Claire [sobbing]: I would. I'd do it all again, and more, to be with you.

Tom: What are we doing to stand up and say about her, eh?
Claire: That Malva Christie was full of life and light, that there was fire in her eyes. And when I held her tiny baby, I felt that same light in him.
Tom: But, the state of the body.
Claire: I'll take care of her.

Hiram: Ye sinned in the eyes of the Lord. Did yer wife forge ya for lyin' wi' a flower-faced Scottish lass? No, Mr. Fraser. Would ever man be swift to hear and slow to anger. Are we all to suffer on the Ridge because you regret marryin' a jealous English woman with a sharp tongue and even sharper knives? Did your wife forgive Malva?
Jamie: If you value your life, choose your next words wisely, Mr. Crombie.

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.
