Kate Quotes
"I prefer those cool bars that are hard to get into, but I can't get into them."
- Lonely Hearts
"Well, the answer is no, I don't need rescuing. I gave up on the knight in shining armor concept a while ago."
- Lonely Hearts
"Well, I'll tell you what: I can go where ever I want and ah, you can go to hell."

- Lonely Hearts
Kate: This guy could go to jail tomorrow, Angel, and still kill her in her dreams every night. I've put a few of these creeps away and the hardest thing is knowing that he's still winning. She's still afraid. He took this girl's power away and no one can get it back for her but her.
- I Fall to Pieces
"Hello everybody. Welcome to the end of an era. Now the old man would like us to believe he couldn't care less about all this attention and free booze. But I know him better than that. He put a lot of years in on the job, and he made a difference in a lot of lives. And now it's over. It's a huge deal, no matter what he says.
In fact I don't really know what he's going to do with himself. He forgot how to be anything but a cop a long time ago. And maybe, maybe that's why I became a cop too. After Mom died, you stopped, you know? It was like you couldn't stand the sight of me. Her face, her eyes looking up at you. But big girls don't cry, right? You said, gone's gone, and there's no use wallowing. Worms and dirt and nothing, forever. Not one word about a better place.
You couldn't even tell a scared little girl a beautiful lie! God, I wanted to drink with you. I wanted you to laugh once with me, the way you laughed with Jimmy here, or Frank.
My best friend Joanne, her Mom was soft, and she smelled like macaroni and cheese, and she'd pick me up on her lap and she'd rock me. She said she wanted to keep me for herself. That I was good and sweet. Everybody said I was. Do you realize that you’ve never told me that I'm pretty? Not once in my life?
Well, I can't anymore, Dad. I can't campaign for the office of your beloved daughter. You closed your heart after mom left us and that's it."
- Sense and Sensitivity
"Some of your more inconsiderate serial killers often fail to leave us any clues."
- Somnambulist
"Please. Now there's a word I imagine you heard quite a lot in your time. Please... no... don’t? Thanks for the offer, but I don’t need your help. I know what to do. Drive a stake right through the son of a bitch’s heart. And when that happens I suggest you don’t be there. Because the next time we meet I’ll do the same to you.
- Somnambulist
"So, do I call the coroner or hazardous materials?"
- The Prodigal
"Got to face those demons sometime, right?"
- The Prodigal
Kendrick: Kate. What are you doing here?
Kate: I'm a detective, Kendrick. See? I'm detecting.
-Five by Five
Kendrick: Come on, Kate. Everybody knows you've gone all Scully. Any time one of these weird cases crosses anyone's desk, you're always there. What's going on with you?
Kate: Scully's the skeptic.
-Five by Five
Kate: Why should I listen to anything you have to say? I despise you. You and everything you represent. And when I say 'represent' and 'thing'... I do mean your clients.
Lindsey: Well, be that as it may, I believe I have some information that will be of interest to you. Because -- while it is true we do differ on a great many issues -- we do have one thing in common.
Kate: Um, our bodies are both 80% water?
-Five by Five
"Did you think I would just forget about that? I don't forget anything."
-To Shanshu in L.A.
"The fact that while you're fighting your big battles of Good and Evil the innocent are the ones that get caught in the crossfire. Those are the ones that I care about. Like that man tonight, or like the real owners of that house if what you say is true. And those are the ones that I chalk up to your boss.
-Dear Boy
Angel: Hi. I thought you might want to know I took care of our little cop problem.
Kate: Crime reports from that precinct. Up until three months ago there was a murder every two weeks, a rape every two days, a robbery every hour and a half. And that's what we just gave back to the people of that community.
Angel: I can live with that.
Kate: You learn to live with a lot of things, don't you?
-Thin Dead Line
Kate: I'm very grateful. I never thought you'd come for me, but... I got cut a huge break and I believe... I don't know what I believe, but I have faith. I think maybe we're not alone in this.
ANGEL: Why?
KATE: Because I never invited you in.
