Man in Black: Don't. I beg you don't do this. She burned them. She was crazy. She burned them all. You can't kill me Jacob. She's made it that way. You can't.
Jacob: Don't worry brother. I'm not going to kill you.
Man in Black: She brought you back here.
Jacob: Yes.
Man in Black: Why would she?
Jacob: Because I have to protect it now. You want to find the light? You want to leave this place brother? Go!
06x09 - Ab Aeterno Season 6 / Episode 9: - Ab Aeterno

Richard Alpert: There were other people here before me?
Jacob: Yes, many.
Richard Alpert: What happened to them?
Jacob: They're all dead.
Richard Alpert: If you brought them here, why didn't you help them?
Jacob: I wanted them to help themselves. To know the difference between right and wrong without me telling them. It's all useless if I have to make them do anything. Why should I have to step in?
Richard Alpert: If you don't he [referring to the Man in Black] will.
Jacob: [pauses, taken aback] Tell you what, would you like a job?
Richard Alpert: A job? Doing what?
Jacob: If I don't step in, maybe you could. You could be my representative and intermediary to the people I bring to this Island.
Richard Alpert: What would I get in return?
Jacob: You tell me...
Richard Alpert: I want my wife back.
Jacob: I can't do that.
Richard Alpert: Can you absolve me of my sins?
Jacob: I can't do that either.
Richard Alpert: Then I don't want to die... I want to live forever.
Jacob: [smiles, lays a hand on his shoulder] Now that, I can do.
06x09 - Ab Aeterno Season 6 / Episode 9: - Ab Aeterno

Jacob: Morning.
Man in Black: Morning.
Jacob: I see you got my present.
Man in Black: Don't gloat, Jacob. It doesn't become you.
Jacob: So you tried to kill me.
Man in Black: You expect an apology?
Jacob: I'd just like to know why you did it.
Man in Black: Because I want to leave. Just let me leave, Jacob.
Jacob: As long as I'm still alive, you're not going anywhere.
Man in Black: Then now you know why I want to kill you. And I will kill you, Jacob.
Jacob: Someone else will take my place.
Man in Black: Well, then I'll kill them too.
Jacob: [hands him a bottle of wine] Well, here's something to pass the time. See you around. [Jacob leaves]
Man in Black: Sooner than you think. [he smashes the bottle against the log, releasing the wine]
06x09 - Ab Aeterno Season 6 / Episode 9: - Ab Aeterno

Jacob: [to Richard] Imagine that this wine is what you keep calling hell. There are other names for it. Malevolence. Evil. Darkness. And it's all down here swirling at the bottom. Unable to get out, because if it did it would spread. Now, the cork is this Island. [puts a cork in the jug, trapping the wine] And it's the only thing keeping the darkness where it belongs.
05x16 - The Incident (1) Season 5 / Episode 16: - The Incident (1)

Jacob: You like it? I did it myself. It takes a very long time when you're making the thread, but, uh... I suppose that's the point, isn't it?
John Locke: Hello, Jacob.
Jacob: Well, you found your loophole.
John Locke: Indeed I did. And you have no idea what I've gone through to be here.
Ben Linus: Have you met before?
John Locke: In a manner of speaking. [Whispers] Do what I asked you to, Ben.
Jacob: Benjamin... whatever he's told you, I want you to understand one thing. You have a choice.
Ben Linus: What "choice"?
Jacob: You can do what he asked, or you can go, leave us to discuss our... issues.
Ben Linus: Oh... so now, after all this time, you've decided to stop ignoring me. 35 years I lived on this island, and all I ever heard was your name over and over. Richard would bring me your instructions - all those slips of paper, all those lists - and I never questioned anything. I did as I was told. But when I dared to ask to see you myself, I was told, "You have to wait. You have to be patient." But when HE asked to see you? He gets marched straight up here as if was Moses. So... why him? Hmm? What was it that was so wrong with me? What about me?
Jacob: [pause] What ABOUT you?

Man in Black: Do you have any idea how badly I want to kill you?
Jacob: Yes.
Man in Black: One of these days, sooner or later, I'm going to find a loophole, my friend.
Jacob: Well, when you do, I'll be right here.
Man in Black: Always nice talking to you, Jacob.
Jacob: Nice talking to you, too.
