I know how much you care about Grace. You're trying to make the world a better place for her. She didn't choose to be a meta, but she is. Does that mean she deserves to die?
Because I'm a father, too. My daughter, I love her more than I ever thought possible. I would do anything to make the world a better place for her. And I think you would, too. So do it.
I used to think that keeping secrets from people for their own good was a noble decision. That it would protect them. But when you do that, you just rob those people from making their own decisions. I even did it with you.
Mm hmm. I didn't want you to see how painful things got for me as the Flash, or how bad things got for your mom. But secrets are like walls, and... you can't really know someone with walls between you.
[over the Flash Museum's speaker] Thank you for visiting the Flash Museum today. The building will be closing in five minutes. All guests should make their way to the exit now. And, Nora West-Allen, your mother called. Please, for your sake and mine: call her back.
Nora. I don't have much time. [an explosion in the background] If you're watching this, it means you're like me. You have powers. It also means I wasn't there to help you learn how to use them. I wasn't there for a lot of things. Remember, ... my sweet Nora,... always remember: I love you. And I always will.
You can't blame the little runner, Barry. She just wanted to spend some time with her Dad. Don't hold that against her. Consider it a condemned man's last request.
The right choice? What the hell are you talking about? You lied to me for twenty years and told me my father was dead. How the hell is that the right choice?!

Your father is trapped inside an ice monster, Caitlin. What was I supposed to do? Split custody with him on the weekends?
Listen to me, Nora. Breathe. Breathe. You're reaching out and nobody's there. The loneliness is pain. Pain racing through your mind. Crushing you, wrecking you, shattering your soul into a million, little, pieces. And suddenly, you are no longer you. You are part of something different now. Part of a negative force.
Do you know what it's like to want something more than anything else in your whole life? [starts crackling with yellow, purple, and red energy] To know your father? To do your best to follow in his footsteps? To make him proud? [more energy crackles]How could he leave me?
