"You know what, Bones? It might be all anthropology to you,
but there are certain people that you just can’t sleep with. I mean,
you can pretend that it’s just sex. You can lie to yourself,
and you can say that it’s all good. But, um, there’s just..
There’s too many strings and too much at stake, you know?
Too much to lose"

Brennan: I’m afraid my best isn’t good enough.
I can read bones, not people.
Booth: Well, you had no trouble seeing through me..

"Yes Bones, he’s handsome and she’s beautiful..
and maybe that’s all they see at first...
But making love? Making. Love..
That’s when two people become one."

Brennan: "Do you need time and space?"
Booth: "Just some time"

Brennan: "You all want to lose yourself in another person.
You believe that love is transcendent and eternal.
I want to believe that, too."
Booth: "Hey.. you will. I promise.
Someday you will.."

You love someone, you open yourself up to suffering, that's the sad truth.
That's the burden.
Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs,
but they are a burden that lifts us.
Burdens which allow us to fly.

Booth: I’m glad that we don’t have any secrets between the two of us.
Brennan: Yeah, I like that.
Booth: I mean if we have something on our mind we just we just share it.
Brennan: Sure. Even with all the financial and intellectual contradictions I still feel close to you.
Booth: Because none of that really matters anyway.
Brennan: Sometimes looking at it through your eyes I believe that.

"what goes on between us..should just be ours"

. . .

Booth: One year from today,
we meet at the reflecting pool on the mall.
Right by the..
Brennan: ..coffee cart. I know.
One year from today.

Booth: Just give it a chance, that's all I'm asking.
Brennan: I'm not a gambler; I'm a scientist.
I can't change. I don't know how. I don't know how.

I got the signal, Booth.
I don't want to have any regrets..
I missed my chance

"I’m standing right beside you Booth..
Like always, like I always will.."

"You look great!"

Brennan: I realize that this is just one of many unforeseen situations
that I might find myself in now that we're starting a family.
And since I can always depend on you to assist when needed,
whether practically, emotionally or sexually..
being in close proximity would facilitate that.
And if the only way for that to occur is by finding another dwelling,
I'm willing to do that..
even though it's a foolish investment in this market.
Booth: Well, I was hoping for something a little bit more romantic,
but I'll take what I can get.
