Quotes 

• Dana Scully : I'm on my way. That was Agent Doggett again. They're waiting. Mom, I've got to go.

  Margaret Scully : It's the middle of the night, Dana. I just don't understand what can't wait 'til tomorrow.

  Dana Scully : Mom, it's important. I wouldn't go if it weren't.

  Margaret Scully : Yes, I know, Dana. You say it's about getting answers.

  Dana Scully : Answers about William, Mom.

  Margaret Scully : I know you're worried about him... that there are things about him that you just can't explain - but even if you were to get those answers what would it change?

  Dana Scully : Mom, he's my child.

  Margaret Scully : And you have to love him and raise him in spite of everything. Dana, god has given you a miracle. A child that wasn't supposed to be. Maybe it's not to question... just to be taken as a matter of faith.

  Dana Scully : Mom, I can't take this on faith. I need to know. I need to know if it's really God I have to thank.
