Merlin on BBC Merlin Quotations

heartmerlin2 posted on Apr 11, 2011 at 09:33AM
The show uses so many great lines, ranging from inspirational quotes to ones that can't help but make us laugh.

So I was thinking that it would be a shame not do anything for these truly amazing lines the BBC writers have dreamt up. Therefore I propose we gather up all our fav quotes up into one forum. :D

All quotes are welcome and you can add as many as you want...

"And you, you will go to hell Uther."
"Trust is a two-edged sword."

Isnt the Great Dragon just perfect? :D Of course, so is Morgana.

Arthur: You're hopeless at a lot of things, Merlin, most things in fact, but occasionally, quite by accident, you say something useful. [3x13]
een jaar geleden MISAforever said…
Arthur: A round table afforded no one man more importance than any other. They believed in equality in all things. And so it seems fitting that we revive this tradition now. [3x13]

Merlin: Arthur thinks he's so sharp, but when I tell him I'm a sorcerer he can't see it!"
Gaius: Sorcerers are very hard to spot
Merlin: Maybe I shuld go aroun with a pointy hat!

What's sad is it took me forever to think of one quote :( I know
*hangs head* I am ashamed....

Arthur: There are times....Merlin, when you display a sort of..I don't know...I don't want to say...it's not wisdom...but yes. That's what it is
Merlin: *surprised look*
Arthur: Don't look so pleased. You are a complete prat the rest of the time....

LOVE THAT!

Merlin: " You don't know where we're going."
Arthur: " No, Merlin, i know where we're going, i just can't tell you, that's all."
Merlin: " Right, 'cause if you do you'll have to kill me, i suppose."
Arthur: *seriously* " Immediately, and without hesitation."
Merlin: " ... Great. It'll be a surprise, i love surprises, who doesn't love a good ... surprise?"


ehehehe XD

Morgana: I couldn't sleep last night. My healing bracelet has been stolen.

Gaius: Oh tragedy. Who ever stole it should be hanged, flogged and hanged again.

Morgana: I was hoping you could give me a sleeping drought.

Gaius: A sleeping draught? Can't you count sheep like everyone else. Why are you bothering me with such things. Shoo!

Wow Cara, great idea :D Gahh, theres just TOO many to put all of them... XD
Well lets see,

Arthur: Yet you called me 'friend'.
Merlin: That was my mistake.
Arthur: Yes, I think so.
Merlin: Yeah, I'd never have a friend who be such an a**

"Merlin: Who do you think you are? The King?!
Arthur: No, I'm his son. Arthur."

"Merlin: I don't want to! If I cannot use magic, then what have I got? I'm just a nobody, and I always will be! If I cannot use magic.... I might as well die."

Arthur: I could take you apart with one blow.
Merlin: I could take you apart with less then that.

Arthur: I warn you, I've been trained to kill since birth.
Merlin: Wow. And how long have you been training to be a prat?
Arthur: You can't address me like that.
Merlin: Sorry. How long have you been training to be a prat... my lord? XDD

Gaius: But you're not meant to be here until Wednesday!
Merlin: It...it is Wednesday.

Gaius: You are a question that has never been posed before, Merlin.

Merlin: But I'm serious! If anyone wants to go killl him, they can go ahead. In fact, I'll give them a hand.
(The Great Dragon laughs)
Great Dragon: None of us can choose our destiny, Merlin. And none of us can escape it.
Merlin: No. No way. No. No, there must be another Arthur, because this one's an idiot.

..Thats all from the first episode... :O XD [1.1]

Merlin: "It doesn't have to be like this. We can find another way."
Morgana: "There is no other way."

Gwen: *To Uther* I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand."

Arthur: *too Merlin* "If I didn't know you better, I'd say you're... wise."

Merlin: Rise and shine!
Arthur: Can't you think of anything new to say?
Merlin: What?
Arthur: Every morning, it is the same thing.
Merlin: Oh, I'm sorry. How about... shake a leg? Up and at them? Let's have you, lazy Daisy? No, you don't like any of them, do you?

Arthur: I used to be afraid of these woods.
Gwen: I find that hard to believe.
Arthur: My father would bring me here when I was a boy. It seemed every falling leaf was a bandit, every puff of wind... was a ghost. You just get used to it in the end.
Gwen: I don't think I'd ever get used to it.
Arthur: You don't have to. You've got me (Gwen, Arthur and Merlin smile) What I mean is... in the event of an attack, we all watch out for each other. Morgana, I think I can rely on your protection.
Morgana: Of course.
Arthur: And, Gwen? You'll look after Merlin, won't you?

. "You're supposed to be a battle-hardened warrior, Merlin, not a daffodil" - Arthur
. "I swore one day I'd repay you, now is the moment" - Freya
. "Maybe we're heading for a new time" - Merlin

Some Gwaine and Merlin scenes here:-

Gwaine:This is it.On the other side of the forest lie the Perilous Lands.
Merlin:It dosen't look too friendly.
Gwaine:Thats because it's not!. Believe me. It's wretched.
Merlin:How do you know?. You've never been there!
Gwaine:I've travelled to many places,Merlin!.
Merlin:Not the Perilous Lands. I know that.
Gwaine:Why?
Merlin: There aren't any tavens.(Laughs)
Gwaine:(Laughing)I told you it was wretched.

(Sceeching)
Merlin:What was that?
Gwaine:A pheasent!
Merlin:A pheasent?
Gwaine:A very big one!

I love Gwaine's accent.

I know it's been 2 years since this post, but I just rewatched Merlin from beginning to finish and was refreshed with all the awesome quotes it contains. Here are just a few of my favorites:

Merlin: “You ever heard the word “sorry?””
Arthur: “No; is that another word you made up?”

Gwen: “In life, you always have a choice. Sometimes it's easier to think that you don't.”

Gaius: “ The future is as yet unshaped. It is we that shape it.”

The Great Dragon, Kilgarrah: “There is no right or wrong. Only what is and what isn't.”

Morgana: “I don't want to be brave. I just want to be who I am.”

Arthur: “Merlin, is there anything you're actually capable of doing?”
Merlin: “Putting up with you.”

Uther: “Have you some kind of mental affliction?”
Merlin: “Probably.”
Giaus: “I'm looking into it, sire.”

Arthur: “Describe dollop head.”
Merlin: “In two words?”
Arthur: “Yeah.”
Merlin: “Prince Arthur.”

Kilgarrah: “The story we have been part of will live long in the minds of men.”

Arthur: “Why are you doing this? Why are you still behaving like a servant?”
Merlin: “It's my destiny. It has been since the day we met.”
Arthur: “I tried to take your head off with a mace.”
Merlin: “And I stopped you. Using magic.”
Arthur: “You cheated.”

Gwaine: “I was having a dream about eating a cheese that tasted of apple pie.”

Percival: “What would you do if your sister had been banished?”
Gwaine: “My sister is an evil, old toad, so I'd be eternally grateful.”

Gwaine: “If I've learned anything from my father's life, it's that titles don't mean anything. It's what's inside that counts.”

Arthur: No man is worth your tears.

Merlin: If I don't know where we are going how I know how to pack? Willitbehotwillitbecoldwillitbewetwillitbe­dry­??
Arthur: Don't be such a girl, Merlin, we are not going on holiday.
Merlin: Holiday what's a holiday...

Arthur: Merlin?
Merlin: No, don't really fancy it.
Arthur: You don't have a choice, Merlin.
Merlin: Alright then.

Merlin: Um.
Arthur: Those are my sausages.
Merlin: Mm-hm.
Arthur: You took them.
Merlin: To keep you in shape!
Arthur: Are you saying I'm fat?!
Merlin: No! Well, not yet.
Arthur: Merlin!
Merlin: See? It's working! *grins*

Arthur: Merlin you should go with them.
Merlin: Nah I've seen the woods already.

Gwaine: What's that in your hair?
Merlin: It's stew.
Leon: Why do you have stew in your hair?
Merlin: Because he was reading!
Knights: O_O

Arthur: If only we had a horse.
Merlin: Or a pig.
Arthur: You can't ride a pig.
Merlin. No but we could eat it.

Arthur: Merlin! What are you doing here?!
Merlin: Why can't you just ever say thanks?
Arthur: Thanks?? For what, ruining the quest?
Merlin: Good thing I did otherwise you would be wyvernmeat right now!
Arthur: What I have to do to get into your _ thick _ skull: the quest must be completed _ ALONE _
*Gwaine appears*
Arthur: Great.. Just great.. Are Gwen and Morgana here, too? Are we gonna have a SURPRISE PARTY??

Arthur: So.. where are my flowers?
Merlin: Your...flowers?
Arthur: I heard Morgana got some.. I thought you would be putting them in all the rooms.. Or.. is she the only one to get a token of your affection..?
Merlin: Yes. Um. No! Um. What?

These I was able to remember now. There are probably some mistakes, though.

My personal favourite:
Merlin: "Do you think I sit around doing nothing? I haven't had a chance to sit around and do nothing since the day I arrived in Camelot, I'm too busy running around after Arthur, 'Do this, Merlin!' 'Do that, Merlin!', and when I'm not running around after Arthur, I'm doing chores for you, and when I'm not doing that I'm fulfilling my 'destiny' do you know how many times I've saved Arthur's life? I've lost count. Do I get any thanks? No. I have fought griffins, witches, uh, bandits. I have been punched, poisoned, pelted with fruit, and all the while I have to hide who I really am because if anyone finds out, Uther will have me executed. Sometimes I feel like I'm being pulled in so many directions I don't know which way to turn!"
