Quotes 

• Mulder : It's been said that fear of the unknown is an irrational response to the excesses of the imagination. But our fear of the everyday, of the lurking stranger and the sound of footfalls on the stairs, the fear of violent death and the primitive impulse to survive, are as frightening as any X-File; as real as the acceptance that it could happen to you.

• Mulder : You okay, Scully?

  Scully : Yeah. I've read about cases of desecrating the dead before but this is the first time I've seen it.

  Mulder : Nothing can prepare you for it; it's almost unimaginable.

  Scully : Why do they do it?

  Mulder : Well, some people collect salt and pepper shakers, fetishists collect dead things - fingernails and hair. No one quite knows why, though I've never really understood salt and pepper shakers myself.

• Agent Bocks : You're saying some human's been doing this?

  Mulder : If you want to call him that.

• Mulder : You know, people videotape police beatings on darkened streets. They manage to spot Elvis in three cities across America every day, but no one saw a pretty woman being forced off the road in a rental car.
