Many of these have already been posted by various poeple in various forms. The number in parens is the episode number. I haven't had the time to tie all quotes to an episode. The filename after the ">" is the SparcStation sound file I use to play the particular quote. I beleive the quotes are fairly accurate, however, no guarantees are given. If you find a mistake, please don't hesitate to let me know. "Great.

I don't know where this is headed, but the only one of us with the coordinates for this destination in his hardware is you. Go on whatever vision quest you require. Stand on the rim of the volcano, stand alone and do your dance.

"Well, if you don't want two black eyes on a regular basis, I suggest you make some kind of peace with a rural life." "Great. After the square dance maybe we can all take a hay ride." -- Agents Rosenfield and Cooper (2001) "Agent Cooper, I am thrilled to pieces that the Dharma came to King Hohoho.

"Color me amazed." -- Agents Rosenfield and Cooper "Who shot me, Albert?" "My men are interrogating the hotel guests, the usual bumper crop of rural know-nothings and drunken fly-fishermen.

You were shot by a right-handed person, 5'6 to 5'10" tall, at a distance of less than three feet. I'll have ballistics later this afternoon." -- Agents Rosenfield and Cooper (2001) "Coop, about the uniform." "Yes, Albert?" "Usually, replacing the quiet elegance of the dark suit and tie for the casual indifference of these muted earthtones is a form of fashion suicide.

That's a way of living I thought had vanished from the Earth, but it hasn't, Albert; it's right here in Twin Peaks."
