He went from a discount Elric of Melnibone to a household name across many generations of gamers.
His character has also done many feats both gallant and polarizing through the players.
So, to remind everyone that Geralt is his own character, here are his most stunning quotes.
Like the previous two seasons, Geralt provides several good quotes throughout the eight episodes.
That’s a difficult standard to reach because Geralt has had some wonderful lines in every Witcher project.
23"Hatred And Prejudice Will Never Be Eradicated.
And Witch Hunts Will Never Be About Witches.
To Have A Scapegoat Thats The Key."
The Witcher might be set in a fantasy world, but it shares some similarities to the real thing.
For instance, prejudice also rears its ugly head in Geralt’s universe.
Once they do, the Witch Hunters begin to target elves and dwarfs instead.
It’s at this point where Geralt delivers the powerful line about Witch hunts not being about Witches.
This is a quote that would still ring true in the real world.
22"Fear Is An Illness.
If You Leave It Untreated, It Can Consume You."
In season two of The Witcher Netflix series, Geralt teaches Ciri plenty of things.
One such occurrence comes when he attempts to help Ciri control her fear.
He does so by delivering an impactful line about fear being an illness.
It’s the sort of quote that is relevant to the viewer, too.
After all, fear isn’t just for those withElder Blood in their veins.
Everybody gets scared sometimes, and Geralt is right about how you have to deal with it.
Geralt in the books just hits differently.
He’s more stoic, more introspective, and more thoughtful there.
It’s also quite sad.
Being a Witcher is all he knows about and it’s all he was born into.
Nothing else comes close to giving him a sense of purpose.
20"I Run Into Dilemmas All The Time…
This Is Not One Of Them.
And Deserve To Die."
I run into dilemmas all the time.
Situations where it’s hard to judge, hard to know what’s right, make a decision.
This is not one of them.
And deserve to die.
He was even ready to combat Orianna on the spot at that very moment.
19"You Know F*ck All, Dandelion."
That’s the full quote.
They had this talk during a desperate Witcher job where Dandelion tags along.
Not much was happening on the road so Dandelion decided to open up his perception about Geralt.
He claims Geralt’s biggest problem is that he thinks he’s different.
To this, Geralt replies with a dismissive retort.
It also explains a lot of his frequent predicaments with his customers.
Some of them, from lowly country folk peasants to even rich fat nobles always venture to swindle him.
They’re quite lucky that Geralt gets rather creative and witty when he’s losing his temper.
16"Beware Of An Old Man In A Profession Where Men Usually Die Young."
This is the most badass Geralt quote there is as it sums up his skills and abilities.
The job of being a Witcher isn’t an easy ride.
Witchers frequently face monsters of all types and the danger is high.
This means an old Witcher is very rare.
Just the fact Geralt is still fighting shows that he possesses tremendous skills.
15"This World Doesn’t Need A Hero.
It Needs A Professional."
Being a hero comes with expectations.
Witchers aren’t liked but they are (usually) respected.
They don’t take sides or worry about what people think of them.
They simply do the jobs that need doing in exchange for coin.
14It Is Easy To Kill With A Bow, Girl."
It is easy to kill with a bow, girl.
The blood of that boy is not on my hands.
The arrow killed him, not I.
But the arrow does not dream anything in the night.
Geralt is recalling that detachment here before bringing in the stark reminder of consequences.
The lesson is to be aware of all your actions and verify you’re able to justify them.
