Memorable quotes for
"Bones" The Cinderella in the Cardboard (2009)


Special Agent Seeley Booth: Oh, I'm just saying that life is a lot more than what you cook up with your chemistry sets. Miracles do happen.

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Love is a chemical process which causes delusion. An intellectually rigorous person would never get married!
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Never say never.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: That's a paradox, makes no sense.
Dr. Marcus Scheer: Am I still needed here? Because if you two are having relationship issues, I should...
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: We're not a couple.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: We just work together. That's all.

Angela Montenegro: Where did this come from?
Wendell Bray: Egyptology Department.
Angela Montenegro: They let you borrow it?
Wendell Bray: Well, no one was using it.
Angela Montenegro: Tell me you're kidding.
Wendell Bray: No. I left a note.

Mrs. Lucia Bertolino: You know this veil would be perfect for you dear.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Oh, well, it's symbol of virginity and I've been sexually active since I was...
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Okay, Bones, we really have to get going.
[to Mrs. Bertolino]
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Thank you so much for your help.

Dr. Jack Hodgins: [after getting the remains off the cardboard] Okay perfect.
Wendell Bray: Now that's something I'd serve. Ha!... If she were a pizza, which she's not... So-so I'll stop now.

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Is that your reason? Because weren't you and Angela sexually compatible?
Dr. Jack Hodgins: [pause] It's not about the sex. I was looking for a meaningful connection.
Angela Montenegro: I get it Jack.
Dr. Jack Hodgins: You do?
Angela Montenegro: Yeah.

Wendell Bray: She was run over by a car.
Dr. Camille Saroyan: Seems like our victim was flattened before she was flattened.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: Why'd you tell Sweets? He's gonna come in here. He's gonna cry and stuff.
Dr. Lance Sweets: [Sweets stands at the doorway and knocks] Excuse me.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Oh, God.
Dr. Lance Sweets: Um, do you have a minute?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Of course.
Dr. Lance Sweets: I was talking to Agent Booth. I need a minute alone.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Sure.
[Bones leaves]

Special Agent Seeley Booth: If you were your own patient, what kind of advice would you give yourself?
Dr. Lance Sweets: Impressive. Turn the question back on me. It's a classic theraputic technique. It's really, really annoying.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Did it work?
Dr. Lance Sweets: Yeah. I should confront her. I should be candid. You're right. You're right. It's the only way. Thank you.

Dr. Camille Saroyan: Did you really tell Sweets that Daisy was cheating on him?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Everyone seems to think I've done something terrible. I don't want to lie!
Dr. Camille Saroyan: In this case, it was definitely the way to go.

Wendell Bray: So this guy ran her down, then backed up and ran her over again? That's a bad date.

Wendell Bray: What happened to your measuring tape?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I don't know. Missing. There was a Post-It note from the Egyptology Department.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: Look Bones, you can't go around telling everybody what's on your mind even though it's the truth. Okay? What if we were going out, right? And you were, you know, taking forever to get ready. You come out in this dress, and I told you I didn't like it. What are you gonna do?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I'd reevaluate. Change or ignore you.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Of course you would Bones. Good answer.

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I know intellectually jealousy is absurd, but I see that it's real for people... I even experience it myself.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: ...So, what are you jealous of?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Angela. Hodgins. Cam. You.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Why?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Because you all want to lose yourself in another person. You believe that love is trancedent and eternal... I want to believe that too.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Hey, you will... I promise. Someday you will.
