Quotes 

• Lao Ma : The entire world is driven by a will - blind and ruthless. In order to transcend the limitations of that world, you need to stop willing, stop desiring, stop hating.

  Xena : How do I do that?

  Lao Ma : Heaven endures, and the Earth lasts a long time, because they do not live for themselves. Therefore, she would live a long time, should live for others, serve others.

• Gabrielle : Can we talk? Of course not. I betrayed you. The pathetic thing is... I thought I was saving you. My reverence for life kept a brutal tyrant in power, and led to my best friend's execution. I know you hate me, Xena... no more than I hate myself.

  Xena : Scratch my nose, will you?

• Xena : Come on. I know you only did what you thought was right. I was angry with you, but I didn't hate you. I never could.

  Gabrielle : I think I understand why you thought you had to kill Ming Tien. It was Lao Ma's last request... and she saved your life.

  Xena : Not just my life. She saved my soul, my spirit, my entire being.
