Thursdays on NetflixThe Witcher Season 2 Episode 1: "A Grain of Truth" Quotes
Fear is an illness. If you catch it and you leave it untreated, it can consume you.
Geralt
I think there's something wrong with me. Everywhere I go, people die. Sometimes, I feel like I could burn the whole world. I wouldn't mean to. It just makes me feel so afraid. All the time.
Ciri
Geralt: Love and blood. They both possess a mighty power. Learned men and mages have wracked their brains over it for years. And they've arrived at nothing except...
Nivellen: ... true love.
Vereena: Are you a monster because you are different?
Ciri: Monsters do bad things to people.
Vereena: Humans do bad things to everybody.
Horses, whores, and mages. All useful till we're not.
Yennefer
Ciri: You don't seem like a monster to me.
Nivellen: I appreciate that, my dear. Monsters are more than just horrid looks and claws and teeth. Monsters are born of deeds done. Unforgivable ones.
Ciri: What's it like? Being alone because of what you are?
Nivellen: It's what eats you alive. Loneliness.
Yennefer: You're on the run. We won.
Fringilla: A battle. The war's just begun.
Yennefer: The refrain of the defeated. How sad.
I know. I know you want to scream. But it's too soon. It's too soon because I haven't even started yet. If evolution has traced any groove at all in your brain, I will plough it somewhat deeper. And then you will know what a scream can really be!
Tissaia
It is not in my nature to be cruel, but you have taken someone from me. Someone I care about deeply. So now I will take your knowledge, your memories, your very being, and leave you cold and helpless, trapped in the eternal darkness of your own mind.
Tissaia
Cahir: Are you my inquisitor or executioner?
Tissaia: See where the night takes us.
Something has changed, Geralt. The world's acting of its own strange accord these days. For outside the reach of kings and men.
Nivellen
