The Best Dr. Carlisle Cullen Quotes

Kate: [taking Bella's hand and zinging her with an electric charge] Oh yeah, she's a shield, all right. Should have put her on her ass.
Garrett: Or your voltage has been exaggerated.
Kate: [holds her hand out to Garrett] Maybe it only works on the weak.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Garrett, I wouldn't.
[Garrett touches Kate's palm and falls to his knees from the electric shock]
Garrett: [looks at Kate, promptly smitten with her] You, are an amazing woman.

Rosalie: [after Edward asks her to put on Bella's coat to distract James] Why? What is she to me?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [Hands her the coat] Rosalie. Bella is with Edward. She's part of the family now. We protect our family.

Rosalie: Is she even Italian?
Emmett: Her name's Bella.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I'm sure she'll love it no matter what.
Rosalie: [sniffs] Ooh... get a whiff of that. Here comes the human.
[Esme flashes a big grin just before Bella and Edward walk around the corner]
Esme: [runs up to Bella] Bella! We're making Italiano for you.
Edward: Bella, this is Esme, my mother for all intents and purposes.
Isabella: Buon Giorno?
Esme: Molto Bene!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: It gives us an excuse to use the kitchen for the first time.
Esme: I hope you're hungry.
Isabella: Yeah, absolutely!
Edward: She already ate.
Rosalie: [crushes the salad bowl she's holding] Perfect!
Isabella: Yeah - it's just that I know... I know you guys don't eat.
Esme: Of course. That's very considerate of you.
Edward: Just ignore Rosalie. I do.
Rosalie: Yeah! Let's just keep pretending like this isn't dangerous for all of us.
Isabella: I would never tell anybody anything.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: She knows that.
Emmett: Yeah, well the problem is... you two have gone public now so...
Esme: Emmett!
Rosalie: No, she should know. The entire family will be implicated if this ends badly.
Isabella: Badly as in... I become the meal.
[Carlisle and Edward struggle to suppress laughs]

Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Rosalie, after she is tagged "out"] "Nice kitty!"

Alice: They'll be here in four days.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: This could turn into a bloodbath.
Edward: Who's behind it?
Alice: I didn't see anyone I recognized... maybe one.
Edward: I know his face. He's a local. Riley Biers. He didn't start this.
Alice: Whoever did is staying out of the action.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: They must be playing with the blind spots in your vision.
Jasper: Either way, the army's coming and there aren't enough of us to protect the town.
Jacob: Hold up. What damn army?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Newborns. Our kind.
Embry: What are they after?
Alice: They were passing around Bella's scent. A red blouse.
Jacob: They're after Bella? What the hell does this mean?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: It means an ugly fight. With lives lost.
Jacob: [looking at his pack mates, then back at Carlisle] All right. We're in.
Bella: No... you'll get yourself killed. No way.
Jacob: I wasn't asking for permission.

Bella: You all know what I want. And I know it's a lot to ask for. The only fair way I can think of is if we put this to a vote.
Edward: Bella, you don't know what you're doing.
Bella: [to Edward] Just... shut up.
Bella: Alice?
Alice: I already consider you my sister... Yes!
Bella: Thank you.
Jasper: I vote yes. It would be nice not to want to kill you all the time.
Rosalie: I'm sorry. I'm really sorry to both of you for how I've acted. And I'm really grateful that you were brave enough to go save my brother. But this isn't a life I would have chosen for myself. And I wish that there had been someone to vote no for me. So no.
Emmett: I vote hell yeah! We can pick a fight with the Volturi some other way.
Esme: I already think of you as part of the family. Yes!
Edward: Why are you doing this to me? You know what this means.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: You've chosen not to live without her, which leaves me no choice. I won't lose my son.

Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [while Edward is sucking the venom and blood out of Bella] Edward, stop. Her blood is clean. You're killing her. Stop. Find the will.

Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Vladimir. Stefan. You're a long way from home.
Kate: What are they doing here?
Vladimir: We heard the Volturi were moving against you, but that you would not stand alone.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: We didn't do what we were accused of.
Vladimir: [dismissively] We do not care what you did, Carlisle.
Stefan: We have been waiting a millennium for the Italian scum to be challenged.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: It's not our plan to fight the Volturi.
Vladimir: Shame. Aro's witnesses will be so disappointed.
Stefan: They enjoy a good fight.
Eleazar: Aro's witnesses?
Vladimir: Aw. Still hoping they'll listen?

Edward: [as the Volturi arrive] Aro is looking for ALice.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Aro, let us discuss things as we used to. In a civilized manner.
Aro: Fair words Carlisle. But a little out of place given the battalion you've assembled against us.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I can promise you, that was never my intent. No laws have been broken
Caius: We see the child. Do not treat us as fools.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: She is not an immortal! These witnesses can attest to that. Or you can look. See the flush of human blood in her cheeks.
Caius: Artifice!
Aro: I will collect every facet of the truth. But from someone more central to the story. Edward, as the child clings to your new born mate, I assume you are involved.
Aro: [after reading Edward's thoughts] I'd like to meet her
Aro: [Face to face with Bella and Renesmee] Ah young Bella, immortality becomes you.
[Regarding Renesmee]
Aro: Hahahahaha. I hear her strange heart
Renesmee: Hello Aro
Aro: [after experiencing her power] Magnifico! Half mortal, half immortal. Conceived and carried by this newborn while she was still human
Caius: Impossible!
Aro: Do you think they fooled me brother?
Caius: Bring the informer forward.
[to Irina]
Caius: Is that the child you saw?
Irina: I'm not sure
Caius: Jane
Irina: She's changed. This child is bigger.
Caius: Then your allegations were false
Irina: The Cullens are innocent. I take full responsibility for my mistake. I'm sorry.
Edward: [after Caius orders the death of Irina] Caius no!
[to Tanya]
Edward: Tanya this is what they want. If you attack now we'll all die.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Aro you see there's no law broken here.
Aro: Agreed. But does it then follow that there is no danger? For the first time in our history humans pose a threat to our kind. Their modern technology has given birth to weapons that could destroy us. Maintaining our secret has never been more imperative. In such perilous times only the known is safe. Only the known is tolerable. And we know nothing of what this child will become. Can we live with such uncertainty? Spare ourselves a fight today, only to die tomorrow.

Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Jacob. Do you think Sam would agree to... an understanding?
Jacob: So long as we get to kill *some* vampires.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Jasper?
Jasper: They'll give us the numbers. The newborns won't know they even exist. That'll give us an edge.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: We'll need to coordinate.
Bella: Carlisle! They're gonna get hurt!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: We'll all need some training. Fighting newborns requires knowledge Jasper has. You're welcome to join us.
Jacob: All right. Name the time and the place.
Bella: Jake, you don't know what you're getting yourself into.
Jacob: Bella, this is what we do. You should be happy. Look at us, working together. You are the one who wanted us to get along, remember?

[Alice and Jasper come in through the window]
Alice: Hi Bella! I'm Alice.
[Alice walks up to Bella and hugs her]
Alice: Oh, you do smell good.
Edward: Alice, what are you - ?
Alice: It's okay. Bella and I are going to be great friends.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Sorry, Jasper's our newest vegetarian. It's still a little difficult for him.
Jasper: Pleasure to meet you.
Alice: It's okay Jasper, you won't hurt her.
Edward: [to Bella] All right, I'm going to take you on a tour of the rest of the house.
Alice: Well, I'll see you soon.
Isabella: Okay.
Esme: [gushing] So CUTE!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I think that went well.
Esme: [to Rosalie] Clean this up. Now!
