Bones

Sweets: If you combine your "Don't get between women" rule and your "like sisters" observation, you know what I come up with? You dated sisters. Booth: (abashed) They were identical twins. Oh yeah, it was all wrong.

Brennan: Saving one pig is an irrational act. Are you suggesting that I point that out to Angela more clearly? Because that would make this conversation very much like a professional consultation. Sweets: No, I'm suggesting, in a very friendly, conversational way, that you help her save that one pig. Brennan: But we agreed that that's a meaningless act. Sweets: Meaningless by your definition, not by Angela's. Brennan: My definition is correct. Sweets: Yes, and if life were simply a debate, you would win, hands down, but we know that it isn't a debate. It's something much tougher.

Angela: I wanna save this little piglet. Brennan: That particular, specific piglet? Angela: Yes. It's gonna be $1,500. Are you in? Brennan: No. (chuckles) Angela: Yeah but, look at his face. How can you resist this face? Brennan: Saving one pig or chicken is symbolic at best, Angela. Angela: This is not a symbol. This is a face. It worries me that you can look into these eyes and be so cold. Brennan: I'm sure he's a fine piglet, but ... Angela: How are we friends? H- how is it possible? I mean, we have nothing in common. Brennan: What, you don't wanna be friends anymore because the pig is cute?

Brennan: (after Booth sees Wendell caress Angela's arm) Angela's very happy. Booth: I can see that. Brennan: You say that in a funny way. You noticed something. See? You still got it! Booth: You're not gonna ask me what I saw? Brennan: Do I wanna know? Booth: No. (chuckles) Do you wanna know anyway? Brennan: Nope! It can wait. I trust you.

Booth: Listen, Bones, I would do anything for you. I would die for you, I would kill for you, but I am not getting in between two best friends.

Sweets: You know our very work shows us that, that those people, that call the world an abattoir -- a slaughterhouse -- they have a point. Now you handle that knowledge by imposing this, gossamer web of rationality ... over the ugliness. Angela has a very different way of handling. Sometimes you don't save the world, Dr. Brennan. (pauses) Sometimes you just make your friend happy.
