Pan: Lyra, the rules are simple.
Lyra: We know the rules, Pan.
Pan: You don't obey the rules. 
Lyra: It doesn't mean I don't know them.

Roger: You know I hate it down here! These coffins have got skeletons in them.
Lyra: All coffins have got skeletons in them, Roger. That's sort of the point.
Roger: Yeah, but I can see these skeletons.
Lyra: Only the ones with the open caskets. Makes you wonder what's inside the ones that are closed.

Lyra: Someone tries to kill you and you just destroy the evidence?
Asriel: Keep your voice down! Someone probably tries to kill me and, yes, I destroy the evidence.
Lyra: Surely you should be doing something.
Asriel: I am doing something. I'm wondering why the Master would want to do that to me. I'm sure he had a good reason.

Mrs. Coulter: What will you eat?
Lyra: I don't care about food.
Mrs. Coulter: Well, you might care about food if you were starving.

Mrs. Coulter: Lyra, look around this room. How many women do you see? In every room, there are those that would belittle you. With my help, they won't lay a scratch on you. For you will have knowledge that they won't. I can teach you to wield power over all of them, but you must let me mould you. You must trust me.

Mrs. Coulter: Lyra, I think you can be extraordinary. But being extraordinary takes application. It means being prepared to change.

Mrs. Coulter: There always has to be a "but" attached to a compliment.

Mrs. Coulter: Our origins don't define us. It's what we do with what we have.

Master: I wouldn't expect Boreal to understand scholastic sanctuary, but you-
Mrs. Coulter: No, no, Master, I never, never understood it either. Why does scholarship need protecting?
Master: You don't believe original thinking should be protected?
Mrs. Coulter: Well, if the thinking was clever enough, it would find a way to obscure itself from the Magisterium, wouldn't it? Scholastic sanctuary is just another way of protecting bloated privilege. Tired old men, talking in a tired old way about tired old things.

Hester: An armored bear is nothing without his armor.

Faa: Go see the witches' consul, get whatever help you can, and we leave here as fast as possible.
Coram: It's been 40 years since I saw Serafina last. She might not like what she sees.
Faa: I remember you as a younger man, Coram. You weren't much to look at even then.

Lee: Say what you like about the North, wherever you go is guaranteed to be a bar full of men who should be at home but aren't.

Lee: Well, at this point, you're either being ignorant or willfully obstructive.

Lyra: You're bleeding.
Lee: Hazard of the job.
Lyra: And what job do you do?
Lee: I'm in aeronautics. 
Lyra: What part of being an aeronaut? 
Lee: Let me give you a tip, kid. Never upset a seagull.

Lee: Some look good naked. You do not.

Hester: It worries me that bacon is more important to you than survival.

Faa: Lyra, you cannot constantly be disobeying me.
Lee: I agree. Who wants a disobedient kid?

Faa: Who's this?
Lee: You told me he'd asked for me.
Lyra: No, I told you he'd be grateful for you.
Lee: Yeah, I was working on him already being grateful. You've entirely messed up my sales pitch.

Lyra: Mr. Scoresby, you're not walking?
Lee: Three reasons. One: I struggle terribly with bunions. Two: Someone's got to protect this balloon.
Lyra: I can protect your balloon.
Lee: Protection requires a certain expertise.
Lyra: I've got expertise.
Lee: You got some, kid, I'll give you that. Number three: Why walk when you can ride?

Lyra: We're going to win this one, aren't we? We're going to get those children back.
Lee: Well, if I was a betting man, I'd say no. And I am a betting man. But I can tell from your face you want me to say yes, so yes.
Lyra: You're not an easy man to like. You know that, Lee?
Lee: So people tell me.

Faa: You call me Lord Faa when you want something and John Faa when you don't.

Lee: Ghosts - I heard you're going to find a ghost?
Lyra: I think so. 
Lee: Is that a sensible thing to do, look for ghosts?
Iorek: I've never heard Lee Scoresby talk about being sensible before.

Iorek: Hold tight. I won't be gentle.

Lyra: What a wonderful mustache!

Lee: Who are you and what do you want?
Mrs. Coulter: Is that how you greet visitors?
Lee: Did you bring food?
Mrs. Coulter: No.
Lee: Then who are you and what do you want?
Mrs. Coulter: You are not endearing yourself to me, Mr. Scoresby.

Lee: You love [Lyra].
Mrs. Coulter: Of course I do.
Lee: It's not enough though - love. It doesn't mean you won't hurt her. It doesn't mean she's safe with you.

Lyra: What is this?
Will: Popcorn.
Lyra: It's disgusting. It tastes like wood shavings.
Will: Then stop eating it.
Lyra: I can't!
