Green Arrow quotes from Arrow

Arrow

I understand that you're hurting and I know what it's like to want someone but not be able be with them. How you wish things could be different, but they can't. I can't be with you. I can't be with anyone. I have to be alone.

Green Arrow

[broadcasting on the emergency channel] Six months ago, the Arrow died. What he stood for didn't. It lived on and heroes took up his mantel. People who believe that this city should never descend into hopelessness. Who believe although life is full of darkness, that darkness can be fixed by light. And tonight I am declaring my intention to stand with them. To fight for this city! To be the symbol of hope that the Arrow never was. I. Am. The Green Arrow.

They still won't see you as anything more than the enemy. You'll never be anything but a criminal to them. Which means you'll never be a hero.

Arrow

As long as this city is safe, it doesn't matter.

Quentin

What the hell are you doing? I thought you were done killing people!

Arrow

He'll live.

Quentin

Yeah, but he'll report me to my lieutenant!

Arrow

He won't talk to anyone.

Quentin

What makes you so sure?

Arrow

Because he has another shoulder. [digs the arrow deeper into Daniel's shoulder]

Arrow

Who are you?

Merely a follower.

Arrow

Of who?

My brother.

Arrow

Did he give you the Mirakuru? Did he inject you with it?

No. He saved me with it.

Tommy

[a hallucination] Get up, Oliver.

Arrow

Tommy?

Tommy

You're not gonna die down here.

Arrow

I'm sorry, Tommy. I let you die...

Tommy

You didn't let me die, Ollie. You fought to save me, because that's what you do, what you have always done. You fight to survive. I know I called you a murderer, but you are not. You are a hero. You beat the island. You beat my father. So fight, Oliver. Get up and fight back.

Brother Cyrus told me he killed you.

Arrow

Guess he's not as strong as you'd hoped. Where did you get the Mirakuru? Who gave you the formula?

Blood

It was a gift. A gift I would use to save this city from itself.

Arrow

Hello Laurel.

Laurel

You're late.

Arrow

I had to circle around to make sure there wasn't a SWAT team waiting for me again.

Arrow

Again!

Roy

You know, I slapped water out of a bowl yesterday. And I slapped water out of a bowl the day before.

Arrow

You must be getting pretty good at it.

Roy

Yeah, well I can't wait to get attacked by a dog dish.

Arrow

Now you. Go slowly! [Roy starts punching the pole quickly] Stop! This is not about learning to throw a punch! This is about learning to control your strength.

Roy

First water slapping. Now this. When are you gonna run out of ways to make me looks STUPID?!? [punches and breaks the pole] All I'm learning is new ways to get pissed off, and in case you haven't noticed, I'm already pretty good at that.

Arrow

There is nothing wrong with anger Roy. Anger is energy, but you need to learn to channel it in a positive way.

Arrow

[talking about Roy] Slade, he's just a kid!

Slade

Who's here only because you pushed him away. You're the one person he looked up to, and for that you crushed his soul.

Arrow

Send his photo to Roy. Get me Felicity.

Diggle

Got it.

Felicity

I can't talk right now, I'm at work. Could I ask you guys to wait one moment? Someone's calling for tech support! You're going to get me so incredibly fired. Okay, I'm hacking into the city's database, I am running facial recognition now.

Arrow

Do you like Italian?

Felicity

What?

Arrow

For tonight. You like Italian right? Everyone likes Italian.

Felicity

Oliver, you're in the middle of a high speed chase.

Arrow

I'm multitasking!

Arrow

What is it, detective?

Quentin

You okay? You look like someone peed in your cornflakes.

Arrow

You're playing a very dangerous game, Laurel.

Laurel

I can take care of myself.

Arrow

No you can't, because you haven't realized it isn't actually a game.

Ted

This is where I kept my supplies. A safe place separate from my day job. I'm sure you've got one just like it.

Arrow

Mine's bigger.
