- Death is the enemy. I spent 10 years of my life singlemindedly studying, practicing, fighting hand to hand in close quarters to defeat the enemy, to send him back bloodied and humble and I am not going to roll over and surrender.
- Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, First Snow, 1993
- Time is just something that we assign. You know, past, present, it's just all arbitrary. Most Native Americans, they don't think of time as linear; in time, out of time, I never have enough time, circular time, the Stevens wheel. All moments are happening all the time.
- Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, Northern Exposure, Hello, I Love You, 1994
- That's the secret of entertaining. You make your guests feel welcome and at home. If you do that honestly, the rest takes care of itself.
- Barbara Hall, Northern Exposure, Northern Hospitality, 1994
- You're confusing product with process. Most people, when they criticize, whether they like it or hate it, they're talking about product. That's not art, that's the result of art. Art, to whatever degree we can get a handle on (I'm not sure that we really can) is a process. It begins in the heart and the mind with the eyes and hands.
- Jeff Melvoin, Northern Exposure, Fish Story, 1994
- You've got your phenomenon on one hand. Concrete and knowable. On the other hand you've got the incomprehensible. You call it God, but to me, God or no, it remains just that, the unknowable.
- Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, Northern Exposure, A Wing and a Prayer, 1994
- See, that's all you're thinking about, is winning. You're confirming your sense of self- worth through outward reward instead of through inner appreciation.
- Barbara Hall, Northern Exposure, Gran Prix, 1994
- Gravity. It keeps you rooted to the ground. In space, there's not any gravity. You just kind of leave your feet and go floating around. Is that what being in love is like?
- Josh Brand and John Falsey, Northern Exposure, The Pilot, 1990
- Pride is a powerful narcotic, but it doesn't do much for the auto-immune system.
- Stuart Stevens, Northern Exposure, Brains, Know-How, and Native Intelligence, 1990
- If you're here for four more years or four more weeks, you're here right now. I think when you're somewhere, you ought to be there. It's not about how long you stay in a place, it's about what you do while you're there, and when you go, is that place any better for your having been there?
- Karen Hall and Jerry Stahl, Northern Exposure, Soapy Sanderson, 1990
- After you've been in a place for a while, everything starts to look... I won't say better, there's no need to go to extremes...but your everyday life does start to become...familiar.
- David Assael, Northern Exposure, Russian Flu, 1990
