Ra's and Oliver in “Unfinished Business”

Surely men have branded you a murderer, a torturer. But see, I would never shame you with such bluntness. Because I see it in your eyes. The struggle you have with your dual identity. Oliver Queen and the Arrow. Neither are giving you what you crave.

Oliver

But becoming Ra's al Ghul will?

Oliver Queen is a man destined to be alone. He loves a woman he knows he cannot have.

Oliver

You don't know me.

But I know the Arrow. Al Sah-him. You will never be anything more than a vigilante for those whose lives you save at the risk of your own. And the city will turn on you, and your closest allies within the police department will call you a criminal. You will be scorned and hunted, and then killed. Dying as you began your crusade. Alone.
