David Shepherd Quotes
![]() | Season 1 / Episode 13: - The New King Part 2 King Silas Benjamin: You *can* drink with people you hate; life's taught me that much. Come on - might be your last. David Shepherd: [sitting down opposite Silas]... So that's it, then - we die tomorrow. King Silas Benjamin: Odds are not in our favor... Not like the old days - then I was sure. I'd ask the outcome of a battle, and He'd answer in thunder and the answer would always be "yes". David Shepherd: No answer tonight? King Silas Benjamin: Not for some time. King Silas Benjamin: [heavenward] Hey, maybe we can help You out a little. King Silas Benjamin: [pouring a third shot glass at the table] Just let us know You're listening out there, and that You exist and that You care a little for the back-and-forthings of we tiny men, and that success - or death - in the outcome of battle mean a little out there in the sparkly quintessence... Just knock the glass over. An infant could do it; a breeze... No?... I guess we're on our own. David Shepherd: Maybe He doesn't talk to bastards. King Silas Benjamin: And here I thought we were getting along so well. David Shepherd: I know you - too well now. I'll help you tomorrow; I'll probably die, too... But I'll do it, because the people need you. They have a chance at peace with you. King Silas Benjamin: [as they get up to leave] If we do survive, I owe you more than apologies - I wronged you. David Shepherd: The minute I see you in your chair, I'm outta here. I don't wanna see any of you again. King Silas Benjamin: ...Do that. David Shepherd: Just promise me one thing: If God ever does speak to you again, you'll listen. |
