Ah, he’s not the first psycho to hire us, nor the last. You think that’s a commentary on us?
Mal
Been a long time since Patience shot me, and that was due to a perfectly legitimate conflict of interest. I got no grudge.
Mal
Don’t worry, I’m not gonna start any sword fights. I’m over that phase.
Mal
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone’s carryin’ a bullet for you right now, doesn’t even know it. The trick is, die of old age before it finds you.

Mal
I'm gonna show you a world without sin.

It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of sumbitch or another. Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.
Mal
Just once, I’d like things to go according to the gorram plan!
Mal
Let’s go get our wayward babes.
Mal
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That’s bound to make anyone a mite ornery.
Mal
Mercy is the mark of a great man. (He lightly stabs Atherton) Guess I’m just a good man. (He stabs him again) Well, I’m all right.
Mal
My work’s illegal, but at least it’s honest.
Mal
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character, so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.
Mal
Reavers ain’t men – or they forgot how to be.
Mal
Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill ’em right back!
Mal
The next time you decide to stab me in the back, have the guts to do it to my face.
Mal
This is the captain, we have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence, and then… explode.
Mal
We have done the impossible and that makes us mighty.
Mal
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.
Mal
We’re not gonna die. We can’t die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.
Mal
We’re not thieves. Well, we are thieves. Point is, we’re not takin’ what’s his. Now, we’ll stay out of his way as best we can from here on in. You explain that that’s best for everyone, okay?
Mal
You know, I do believe that woman is planning to shoot me again.
