I don't feel anything, Regina...I'd rather have nothing than settle for less. Nothing is better than what we have. I need to feel something, Regina, and the only way to do that is to give myself a chance.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe the problem isn't with me, but with you?
Excuse me?
Henry came and found me. Graham kissed me. Both were miserable. Maybe, Madam Mayor, you need to take a good hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why that is. Why is everyone running away from you?
Two people with a common goal can do many things. Two people with a common enemy can do even more.
This is a juvie record! It was sealed by court order. I don't know how you got it, but that's abuse of power and illegal!
Oh, I'm sorry you didn't want people to know you cut his cord with a shiv?
I want to show him that good can actually win.
That's why you want to win it for him, but why do you want to win the election for yourself?
That is why. I want to show him that a hero can win, and if I'm not a hero and I'm not the savior, then what part do I have in his life?
ZZoso
My life was such a burden. You'll see. Magic always comes with a price. And now, it's yours to pay.
Why me? Why me?
ZZoso
I know how to recognize a desperate soul.
[after learning Mr. Gold planned everything that transpired during the election] Why did you do this?
We made a deal sometime back, Miss Swan. We established that you owed me a favor. I know that can be a bad feeling. Owing someone. Now that you're sheriff, I'm sure we'll find some way for you to pay back what you owe me.
I know it's a lot. Believe me, I know. A month ago a kid shows up on my doorstep, a kid I gave up for adoption, asking for help with something. I end up moving here, for him.
MTMichael Tillman
I heard about that. It's the mayor's son. Staying in town. That's a lot different than taking him in.
I don't have my kid because I don't have a choice. You do. Those kids did not ask to be brought into this world. You brought them into this world. You and their mother and they need you. If you choose not to take them, you are going to have to answer for that every day of your life. And sooner or later, when they find you, and believe me they will find you, you're going to have to answer to them.
I offered your children everything, whatever their hearts desired, and they still chose uncertainty because of their blind faith in you. Tell me why. Why did your children refuse me?
WWoodcutter
Because we're a family, and family always finds one another.
He comes here every morning at 7:15 A.M. to get coffee.
For him and his wife.
I know, I know, I know. I just like to come here to see him.
So you're a stalker.
No, not really. Maybe a little bit. I mean, it's not like I'm following him. I just know that he spends his mornings with Kathryn, gets coffee, drives to the animal shelter to start work at 7:30 and then he's home by 5:00.
Oh... Is that all?
Thursdays, they pick up Chinese for dinner.
How much for this?
Excuse me?
Your boat. Exquisite craftsmanship.
It's not for sale.
Of course it is, dearie! No one comes to see me without a deal in mind.
KGKing George
You're going to sneak in and tell him you received his letter. You're going to tell him why you're here, because you don't love him. It'll break his heart, and that'll cure him.
Or you'll kill me.
KGKing George
Oh, no. I'll kill him. Killing you would just make him love you more, and the marriage and the kingdom would ultimately crumble. But if he were to die at an assassin's hand, he would die a martyr. Midas will forgive, even laud, the death, and the merger would be complete.
You would do that to your own son?
KGKing George
He is not my son.
You above all people should understand. You've lost love. What if the pain could be erased?
I don't want my pain erased. As wretched as it is, I need my pain. It makes me who I am. It makes me Grumpy. Look around, Snow. You're not alone anymore. I promise you that's all the cure you need. If the pain is too much, you can always drink it, but for today... put it away.
SSidney
Sometimes doing a bad thing for a good reason is OK, right?
Yeah. I mean, maybe you're doing something wrong, but... If it's what's meant to be, if it's what's right, does that really make you a bad person?

In my time, I have granted 1,001 wishes. And I have seen them end poorly 1,001 times. Making a wish comes with a price. And that is why I will never use this wish.
