1- Dale Cooper: Nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup [claps his hands] collides with ham.
2- Dale Cooper: “Harry, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don’t plan it, don’t wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men’s store, a catnap in your office chair or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this.”
3- Deputy Hawk : “One woman can make you fly like an eagle, another can give you the strength of a lion, but only one in the cycle of life can fill your heart with wonder and the wisdom that you have known a singular joy. I wrote that for my girlfriend.”
4- Dale Cooper : “Black as midnight on a moonless night.”
5- Bobby Briggs : “She said people try to be good but they’re really sick and rotten, most of all and every time she tried to make the world a better place, something terrible came up inside her and pulled her back down into hell. Took her deeper and deeper into the blackest nightmare. Every time it got harder to go back up to the light.”
6- Log Lady : “My husband was a logging man he met the devil. Fire is the devil, hiding like a coward in the smoke.”
7- Dale Cooper : “That’s what you do in a town where a yellow light still means slow down, not go faster.”
9- Dale Cooper : All things considered, being shot is not as bad as I always thought it might be. As long as you can keep the fear from your mind. But I guess you can say that about almost anything in life. Its not so bad as long as you can keep the fear from your mind.
10- Log Lady: Sometimes my anger at the fire is evident. Sometimes it is not anger, really. It may appear as such, but could it be a clue? The fire I speak of is not a kind fire.
11- Dale Cooper : If we’re not at the right place at exactly the right time, we won’t find our way in.
12- Log Lady: Sometime ideas, like men, jump up and say ‘hello’. They introduce themselves, these ideas, with words. Are they words? These ideas speak so strangely. All that we see in this world is based on someone’s ideas. Some ideas are destructive, some are constructive. Some ideas can arrive in the form of a dream. I can say it again: some ideas arrive in the form of a dream.
14- Log Lady: Behind all things are reasons. Reasons can even explain the absurd. Do we have the time to learn the reasons behind the human being’s varied behavior? I think not. Some take time.
15- Albert Rosenfield : “Oh, I’ve got compassion running out of my nose, pal! I’m the Sultan of Sentiment! Dr Hayward, I have travelled thousands of miles and apparently several centuries to this forgotten sinkhole in order to perform a series of tests. Now, I do not ask you to understand these tests. I’m not a cruel man. I just ask you to get the hell outta my way, so that I can finish my work! Is that clear?”
16- Log Lady: A drunken man walks in a way that is quite impossible for a sober man to imitate, and vice versa. An evil man has a way, no matter how clever — to the trained eye, his way will show itself.
17- Dale Cooper : A little habit can provide a strong foundation.
18- Log Lady: There is a depression after an answer is given. It was almost fun not knowing.
19- Special Agent Dale Cooper : Secrets are dangerous things.
20- Log Lady: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Yet there are those who open many eyes. Eyes are the mirror of the soul, someone has said. So we look closely at the eyes to see the nature of the soul. Sometimes when we see the eyes – those horrible times when we see the eyes, eyes that … that have no soul – then we know a darkness, then we wonder: where is the beauty? There is none if the eyes are soulless.
21- James Hurley: I don’t want there to be any lies between us. It’s the secrets people keep that destroy any chance they have of happiness, and I don’t want us to be like that.
22- Agent Dale Cooper : “This must be where pies go when they die.”
23- Log Lady : The beautiful thing about treasure is that it exists. It exists to be found. How beautiful it is to find treasure. Where is the treasure, that when found, leaves one eternally happy? I think we all know it exists. Some say it is inside us — inside us one and all. That would be strange. It would be so near. Then why is it so hard to find, and so difficult to attain?
24- One-Armed Man : Through the darkness of future’s past, the magician longs to see. One chants out between two worlds… ‘Fire…walk with me.’
25- Log Lady : The mystery of the woods. The woods surrounding Twin Peaks. To introduce this story, let me just say it encompasses the All – it is beyond the “Fire”, though few would know that meaning. It is a story of many, but begins with one – and I knew her. The one leading to the many is Laura Palmer. Laura is the one.”
26- Dale Cooper : “Women were drawn from a different set of blueprints.”
27- Log Lady : There is a sadness in this world, for we are ignorant of many things. Yes, we are ignorant of many beautiful things — things like the truth. So sadness, in our ignorance, is very real. The tears are real. What is this thing called a tear? There are even tiny ducts — tear ducts — to produce these tears should the sadness occur. Then the day when the sadness comes — then we ask: ‘Will this sadness which makes me cry — will this sadness that makes me cry my heart out — will it ever end?’ The answer, of course, is yes. One day the sadness will end.
28- Dale Cooper : The time has come for you to seek the Path. Your soul has set you face to face before the clear light… and now you are about to experience it in its Reality, wherein all things are like the void and cloudless sky, and the naked, spotless intellect is like a transparent vacuum, without circumference or center… At this moment, know yourself and abide in that state.
29- Dale Cooper : Nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup collides with ham.
30- Donna Hayward : I believe you. I applaud your desire to do the right thing. But goodness in you is like a timebomb. And there’s nothing good about ruined lives.
31- Deputy Tommy “Hawk” Hill : You may be fearless in this world, but there are other worlds.
32- Log Lady : Letters are symbols. They are building blocks of words which form our languages. Languages help us communicate. Even with complicated languages used by intelligent people, misunderstanding is a common occurrence. We write things down sometimes — letters, words — hoping they will serve us and those with whom we wish to communicate. Letters and words, calling out for understanding.
