Rick Grimes Quotes

03x13 - Pale Horse Season 3 / Episode 13: - Pale Horse

The Governor: I thought you were a cop, not a lawyer.
Rick Grimes: Either way, I don't pretend to be a governor.
The Governor: I told you, I'm their leader.
Rick Grimes: You're the town drunk who knocked over my fence and ripped up my yard, nothing more.
The Governor: Didn't you ever misjudge someone? Hmm? Andrea told me about your baby. That it might be your partner's. But you're caring for her and I admire that. Restitution for your own lack of insight. For failing to see the devil beside you.
Rick Grimes: Oh, I see him, all right.
03x12 - Clear Season 3 / Episode 12: - Clear

Rick Grimes: We're eating his food now?
Michonne: The mat said "Welcome."
03x12 - Clear Season 3 / Episode 12: - Clear

Morgan Jones: Hey, your boy, is he dead?
Rick Grimes: No.
Morgan Jones: No? He will be. See, 'cause people like you, the good people, they always die. And the bad people do, too. But the weak people, the people like me... we have inherited the earth.
03x12 - Clear Season 3 / Episode 12: - Clear

Rick Grimes: Do you know who I am? Do you see who I am?
Morgan Jones: People wearing dead people's faces.
03x12 - Clear Season 3 / Episode 12: - Clear

Rick Grimes: We found a prison. The fences can keep 'em out.
Morgan Jones: Is that where your wife died? Just go. Don't go back. Don't stop. Just get yourself some more time.
Rick Grimes: Look, I can help you. You can come back with us. You can heal.
Morgan Jones: You're taking a lot of guns, Rick. No, I'm just saying that that all is a lot of guns. Why do you need the guns, Rick? 'Cause if you got something good, that just means that someone wants to take it. And that is what is happening, right?
Rick Grimes: We're gonna win. You can be there. You can help.
Morgan Jones: You will be torn apart by teeth or bullets. You and your boy. Your people, but not me. Because I'm not gonna watch that happen again.
03x12 - Clear Season 3 / Episode 12: - Clear

Michonne: You see something? I know you see things. People. I used to talk to my dead boyfriend. It happens.
Rick Grimes: You want to drive?
Michonne: Yeah.
Rick Grimes: Good. I see things.
03x09 - The Suicide King Season 3 / Episode 9: - The Suicide King

Daryl Dixon: Jackass.
03x09 - The Suicide King Season 3 / Episode 9: - The Suicide King

Rick Grimes: [to Michonne] Hey, do you know Andrea?
Merle Dixon: Yep, she does. Her and blondie spent all winter cuddling up in the forest. Mm-mmm-mmm. Yeah. My Nubian queen here had two pet walkers. No arms, cut off the jaws, kept them in chains. Kind of ironic now that I think about it.
03x08 - Made to Suffer Season 3 / Episode 8: - Made to Suffer

Glenn Rhee: Daryl, this was Merle. It was. He did this.
Rick Grimes: You saw him?
Glenn Rhee: Face to face. Threw a walker at me. He was gonna execute us.
Daryl Dixon: S-So my brother's this governor?
Maggie Greene: No, it's somebody else. Your brother is his lieutenant or something.
Daryl Dixon: Does he know I'm still with you?
Glenn Rhee: He does now. Rick, I'm sorry. We told him where the prison was. We couldn't hold out.
Rick Grimes: Don't. No need to apologize.
03x07 - When the Dead Come Knocking Season 3 / Episode 7: - When the Dead Come Knocking

Rick Grimes: We can tend to that wound for you, give you a little food and water, and then send you on the way. But you're gonna have to tell us how you found us and why you were carrying formula.
Michonne: The supplies were dropped by a young Asian guy with a pretty girl.
Rick Grimes: What happened?
Hershel Greene: Were they attacked?
Michonne: They were taken?
Rick Grimes: Taken? By who?
Michonne: By the same son of a bitch who shot me.
Rick Grimes: Hey, these are our people. You tell us what happened now!
Michonne: Don't you ever touch me again!
Daryl Dixon: [points crossbow at her head] You better start talking. You're gonna have a much bigger problem than a gunshot wound.
Michonne: Find 'em yourself.
03x07 - When the Dead Come Knocking Season 3 / Episode 7: - When the Dead Come Knocking

Carl Grimes: Daryl's been calling her Ass-Kicker.
Rick Grimes: Ass-Kicker? Has he, now?
Carl Grimes: I've been thinking, what we should really call her?
Rick Grimes: What do you think?
Carl Grimes: Remember my third grade teacher, Mrs. Mueller?
Rick Grimes: Of course.
Carl Grimes: Her first name was Judith. Do you think that's a good name?

Daryl Dixon: It's what we do.
03x04 - Killer Within Season 3 / Episode 4: - Killer Within

Rick Grimes: Are you serious? You want them living in a cell next to you? They'll just be waiting for a chance to grab our weapons. You want to go back to sleeping with one eye open?
T-Dog: I never stopped. Bring them into the fold. If we send them off packing, we might as well execute them ourselves.
Glenn Rhee: I don't know. Axel seems a little unstable.
Carol Peletier: After all we've been through? We've fought so hard for all this, what if they decide to take it?
Maggie Greene: It's just been us for so long. They're strangers, I don't - it feels weird all of a sudden to have these other people around.
T-Dog: You brought us in.
Maggie Greene: Yeah, but you turned out with a shot boy in your arms. Didn't give us a choice.
Glenn Rhee: They can't even kill walkers.
Carol Peletier: They're convicts, bottom line.
T-Dog: Those two might even less blood on their hands then we do.
Daryl Dixon: I get guys like this. Hell, I grew up with them. They're degenerates, but they ain't psychos. I could have been in there with them just as easy I'm out here with you guys.
03x04 - Killer Within Season 3 / Episode 4: - Killer Within

Rick Grimes: We'll give the prisoners a week's worth of supplies for the road.
T-Dog: They might not last a week.
Rick Grimes: Their choice.
T-Dog: Did they really have one?
Rick Grimes: Hey, whose blood would you rather have on your hands? Glenn's? Maggie's? Or theirs?
T-Dog: Neither.

Tomas: It was coming at me, bro.
Rick Grimes: Yeah, yeah, I get it. I get it. Shit happens.

Rick Grimes: We're awful grateful for what you did.

03x02 - Sick Season 3 / Episode 2: - Sick

Andrew: Let me back in man! Let me back in! Open that up man, open it up!
Rick Grimes: You better run.
03x02 - Sick Season 3 / Episode 2: - Sick

Rick Grimes: Do not leave his sight. If he dies you need to be there for that. You think you can do this? Maggie'll be there.
Glenn Rhee: I got it.
Rick Grimes: I can bring T-Dog in here...
Glenn Rhee: I got it!
Rick Grimes: Good.
03x02 - Sick Season 3 / Episode 2: - Sick

Rick Grimes: About what?

02x13 - Beside the Dying Fire Season 2 / Episode 13: - Beside the Dying Fire

Rick Grimes: You're a man of God. Have some faith.
Hershel Greene: I can't profess to understand God's plan, Christ promised the resurrection of the dead. I just thought he had something a little different in mind.
02x13 - Beside the Dying Fire Season 2 / Episode 13: - Beside the Dying Fire

Rick Grimes: Where'd you find everyone?
Daryl Dixon: Well, those guys' tail lights zigzagging all over the road - figured he had to be Asian, driving like that.
Glenn: [chuckles] Good one.
02x13 - Beside the Dying Fire Season 2 / Episode 13: - Beside the Dying Fire

Rick Grimes: We gotta keep moving. There have been Walkers crawling all over here.
T-Dog: I say head east.
Daryl Dixon: Stay off the main roads. The bigger the roads, the more Walkers, more assholes like this one. I got him.

02x13 - Beside the Dying Fire Season 2 / Episode 13: - Beside the Dying Fire

Carl Grimes: I'm freezing.
Lori Grimes: We'll build a fire, yeah?
Daryl Dixon: You go out looking for firewood, stay close. Only got so many arrows. How you doing on ammo?
Rick Grimes: Not enough.
Maggie Greene: We just can't stand around here with our asses hanging out.
Hershel Greene: Watch your mouth. Everyone stop panicking and listen to Rick.

Rick Grimes: We're all infected.
Daryl Dixon: What?
Rick Grimes: At the C.D.C., Jenner told me. Whatever it is, we all carry it.
Carol Peletier: And you never said anything?
Rick Grimes: Would it have made a difference?
Glenn: You knew this whole time?
Rick Grimes: How could I have known for sure? You saw how crazy that mo...
Glenn: That is not your call. Okay, when I found about the Walkers in the barn, I told, for the good of everyone.
Rick Grimes: Well, I thought it best that people didn't know.
02x13 - Beside the Dying Fire Season 2 / Episode 13: - Beside the Dying Fire

Rick Grimes: I killed him. I killed Shane. He came at me. He killed Randall to get me in the woods. He planned it. I had - I had no choice. I gave him every chance... and he kept leading me further out. He pushed me, and I let him. After awhile, I knew - I knew what he was doing, what he was up to. And I kept going. I didn't stop. I could have, but... I just wanted it over. Dogging me every step of the way. Acting like I stole you and Carl, like... like I was in the way. I just wanted it over. I wanted him dead. I killed him. He turned. That's how I knew Jenner - Jenner was right. Carl put him down.
