Spike Spiegel
- Spike Spiegel: Hey, Jet, did you know that there are three things that I particularly hate?
- Jet Black: Really?
- Spike Spiegel: Kids... animals... and women with attitudes...
- Jet Black: Oh?
- Spike Spiegel: So tell me, Jet, why do we have all three of them neatly gathered in our ship?
- Spike Spiegel: Look at my eyes, Faye. One of them is a fake because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I've been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So, I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture. I felt like I was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it, the dream was over.
- Faye Valentine: Why do you have to go? Where are you going? What are going to do, just throw your life away like it was nothing?
- Spike Spiegel: I'm not going there to die. I'm going to find out if I'm really alive. I have to do it, Faye.
- [Session #8, during the Preview of Session #9: Jamming With Edward]
- Ed: Ed will introduce Ed. Full name - Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky the 4th.
- Spike Spiegel: That's a long name.
- Faye Valentine: Who the hell's this?
- Ed: Ed made up that name for Ed, isn't it cool?
- Spike Spiegel: If you made it up, how can you be the 4th?
- Julia: It was raining that day as well.
- Spike Spiegel: And so you didn't come because of the rain?
- Julia: I was supposed to kill you. It was all set up. If I had, I would have been free.
- Spike Spiegel: So why didn't you? You chose to be hunted. Why?
- Julia: Why did you love me?
- Spike Spiegel: Uh, listen Jet. You said "bell peppers and beef." There's no beef in here. So you wouldn't really call it "bell peppers and beef," now would you?
- Jet Black: Yes, I would.
- Spike Spiegel: Well, it's *not*!
- Jet Black: It is when you're broke!
- Frog: This is the stairway to heaven. You know that, don't you?
- Spike Spiegel: Obnoxious little frog.
- Jet Black: When you and I first met, you told me something. You said that you had died once, that you had seen death. Why can't you just let it go? Forget the past.
- Spike Spiegel: There was a woman, first time I'd found someone who was truly alive. At least, that's what I thought. She was... the part of me I'd lost somewhere along the way, the part that was missing, that I'd been longing for.
- Vicious: So you are finally awake. I told you before, Spike... that I am the only one who can kill you.
- Spike Spiegel: I'll return those words back to you, Vicious.
- Vicious: Either way, we were destined to end up like this.
- Jet Black: You think it's all right to leave them alone?
- Spike Spiegel: You worried about her?
- Jet Black: I just thought that she might let him go.
- Spike Spiegel: Does she have that much sympathy in her heart?
- Jet Black: Women as insistent as her tend to be the ones who get emotionally swayed by their exes.
- Spike Spiegel: Is that so?
- Jet Black: Women don't work on reason.
- [after finishing up her flashback to Ein]
- Faye Valentine: Spike! How long have you been listening for?
- Spike Spiegel: Too long. Your story needs editing.
- Vicious: You should see yourself. Do you have any idea what you look like right at this moment, Spike?
- Spike Spiegel: What?
- Vicious: A ravenous beast. The same blood runs through both of us. The blood of a beast who wanders, hunting for the blood of others.
- Spike Spiegel: I've bled all that kind of blood away.
- Vicious: THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?
