Peter White: Gene Gogolak

Quotes 

• Gene Gogolak : FBI? What did I do?

  Mulder : Let's start with the Klines. You're responsible for them being in little pieces in my front yard. You gave them that lawn ornament. The guy with the axe.

  Gene Gogolak : Whirligig.

  Mulder : Yeah, whirligig. It's tacky enough to break your rules and your CCRs - tacky enough to mark the Klines for death.

  Gene Gogolak : Won't that sound good in a court of law? When the judge asks you who killed the Klines, what exactly are you going to tell him?

  Mulder : [Looking around Gogolak's house he finds]  A tulpa. It's a Tibetan thought-form. It's a living, breathing creature willed into existence by someone who possesses that ability - an ability I think you picked up on your whirligig-buying excursions to the Far East. Why'd you do it? I mean, is it so damn important for everybody to have the same color mailbox?

  Gene Gogolak : It's important that people fit in.

  Mulder : But you didn't know exactly what you were getting into, did you? I mean, you can summon its existence, but... You can give it life, but you can't control it. The best you can hope for is to stay out of its way.

  Gene Gogolak : Son, my lawyers are going to make you sound so stupid that not only will I never see the inside of a jail cell, but you'll be signing all your paychecks straight to me.

• Gene Gogolak : Your new neighbors are FBI agents. But don't worry, not for long.
