the witcher (show) starters
â victimhood is not your colour. â
â you canât outrun destiny just because youâre terrified of it. â
â your job is to control chaos, not to succumb to it. â
â you donât deserve the air you breathe. â
â not a single person alive looks in the mirror and doesnât see some form of deformity. â
â you lie, you keep secrets. you succumb to emotion and weakness. â
â not answering questions is part of your brooding pillar of charm. â
â youâre just mad because you lost your chance to be beautiful. â
â you smell of death and destiny, heroics and heartbreak. â
â thereâs no power in puppeting fools. â
â iâll leave that for someone who gives a shit. â
â i need to get back to my horse. â
â your will to live is strong. â
â iâm still not enough. even for you. â
â need a hand? iâve got two. â
â my men will kill you. â
â iâm here to drink alone. â
â go. on your own or at the end of a rope, your choice. â
â do you know how many people wouldnât blink if you died? â
â you werenât taking control. you were losing it. â
â people call you a monster too. â
â iâve waited all these years for you to admit weâre made for each other. â
â if only you could tell between friend or threat. do you even know the difference anymore? â
â when you live as long as i do, all the names sound the same. â
â were you in love? â
â this place isnât safe when youâre alone. â
â the only thing you do quickly is flee. â
â even if you were a beauty, still, no one would love you. â
â not a happily ever after after all. â
â hm, doesnât rhyme. all good predictions rhyme. â
â you are making me uncomfortable. â
â unchecked kings and queens start massacres. â
â i just want some damn peace. â
â i dreamed of becoming important to someone someday. â
â the only thing special about you is the crown on your head. â
â what do you long for? fame? money? power? â
â what? no one mentioned the impending doom part. â
â true words are rare words. â
â i want more. i have to be more. â
â do other women find this coarseness charming? â
â love casts long shadows. â
â if she runs, kill her. â
â donât give me that look, shitling. â
â today isnât your day, is it? â
â how come when my life comes to shit youâre the one shoveling it? â
â i know who you are. what you are. â
â i envy you. to live, and to have no love. â
â youâd leave a man bound to die in such a dignity? â
â i loved your mother. â
â donât you know who i am? â
â so thatâs all life is to you? monsters and money? â
â thereâs a vortex of fate around us. â
â is history a wheel doomed to repeat? â
â the sword of destiny has two edges. â
â iâve considered your company and conversation payment enough. â
â this isnât who you are. â
â will you be joining me? â
â no amount of power or beauty will make you feel worthy of either. â
â i donât believe anyone has that power. â
â nobody smart plays fair. â
â i wonât listen to a man who pimps the world as some romantic adventure. â
â a true man would state his desires. â
â donât turn this on me. â
â i want to be powerful. itâs what iâm owed. â
â that makes sense just as much as it doesnât. âÂ
â youâre smart, arenât you? you know everything. â
â i feel something out there waits for you. âÂ
â please donât hurt me. iâm lost. âÂ
â i wonât kill youâŚbut you cant stay here. âÂ
â thereâs no âusâ. thereâs only me. âÂ
â iâm asking for a teeny-weeny little favor. âÂ
â yeah, youâre probably right. but what if youâre not? â
â iâm not your friend. âÂ
â you and destiny can both fuck right off. âÂ
â i love the way you just sit in the corner and brood. â
â i will not suffer tonight sober. âÂ
â pretty ballads hide bastard truths. â
â i will not involve myself to petty menâs squabbles. â
â happy childhood makes for dull company. â
â itâs impossible to be prepared for every battle. keep your sword close, and keep moving. â
â i see a lot of myself in you. â
â you canât change the world this way. â
â i donât need anyone. & the last thing i want is someone needing me. â
â alright, stand close to me and pretend youâre mean. â
â why are you dressed like a sad silk trader? âÂ
â only one of us will be alive to find out. âÂ
â i stole rather than starve. i killed rather than be killed. âÂ
â i haveât only done good in my life either. âÂ
â itâs like ordering a pie and finding out it has no filling. âÂ
â when i cut my finger i bleed. thatâs human, right? âÂ
â theyâre rough around the edges but theyâre earthling like me. âÂ
â royalty is best endured in small doses. âÂ
â i thought the world needed me too. âÂ
â sometimes, the best thing a flower can do for us is die. âÂ
â handy with a blade. handy with women too. â
â are you trying to hurt my feelings? â
â you look like youâve been through hell. â
â i canât do this without you. â
â you know cautionary tales wonât work on me. â
â you talk nonsense while making wise and meaningful faces. â
â the apple never falls far from the tree. â
â when i go it will be far more dramatic than this. â
â try not to get any daggers in your back before dawn. â
â you have your motherâs blood. youâll be alright. â
â a great ruler always chooses mercy. â
â it took two strikes to kill him. they werenât clean. but they were spectacular. â
â if i have to choose between one evil and another, iâd rather not choose. â
â i would do anything to forget who i was. â
â i have no doubt blood will be spilled here tonight. â
â thereâs a grain of truth in every fairy tale. â
â people look at you for who you are, not what you can give them. â
â do you believe in destiny now? â
â we can leave. we can find a way out. â
â lovers? fun for a bit, iâll admit, but all eventually disappoint. â
â letâs face it, youâre a girl. weâre just vessels. and even when weâre told weâre special, weâre still just vesselsâŚfor them to takeâŚand takeâŚuntil weâre emptyâŚand alone. â
â people like to invent monsters and monstrosities. then they seem less monstrous themselves. â
â every time iâm around you i say more in five minutes than iâve said in weeks. â
â maybe someone out there will want you. â
â if you must kill me, iâm ready. â
â people linked by destiny always find each other. â
â thank the gods. i might live to see another day. â
â i was having a rather lovely dream which then turned into a nightmare. â
â you desperately need money for new clothes. â
â more and more, i find monsters where i go. â
â life is too short. do what pleases youâŚwhile you can. â
â gods youâre pretty. â
â my lady, i would never degrade your honor in such a way. â
â my world is cruel. you enter, you survive, you die. â
â i feel i shall die a broken hearted man. â
â who slits a manâs throat while heâs relieving his bowels? â
â why help those who donât listen? â
