I thought you'd like it.
What, hearing my name over and over again? Do you think I'm some kind of egomaniac?
JJalina
[long pause] No.
S2 E6If You Could See Her Through My Eyes
There are two types of friends in this world: kind that helps you hide a dead whore, and me.
[to Amanda] Even back when you were Mayor and repeatedly kicking the Earth Republic in the teeth, I knew you were acting on principle. You've got character.
It's in our nature to want to be other than we are. It's what makes humanity great. We are creatures of incredible curiosity. We envy the flight of birds, and we build wings. Born earthbound, we reach for the stars.
[singing] I have infinite potential / Your love can set it free / Give me something to be proud of / Give me something more than me / I want bigger, sleeker, faster / I want to hug the curves / I yearn for something greater / Than one like me deserves / Take this child of evolution / And raise him to the sky / Set free his inner beauty / Teach this boy to fly / And when I ascend in glory / The gods will know my name / We will blow apart this fiction / That all are built the same
S2 E7Slouching Towards Bethlehem
You're wrong.
I'm never wrong.
You're always wrong.
I'm occasionally wrong. But my heart's always in the right place.
Nolan. Such a unique man. There's a certain air about him. Leather, bourbon, gun grease.
I'm sorry, but I really don't know what this has to do with our investigation.
Not a thing. Simply that Miss Captain Rainier wears it well.
Nolan. Are you two dating?
JRJessica "Berlin" Rainier
God, no. We're just having lots of sex.
MGMahsuvus Gorath
I like you, Nolan. Perhaps in a different life, we could've been friends.
Doubt that, pal. But I might have been persuaded to buy you a drink.
S2 E8Painted from Memory
How long can a human being survive underground without air?
Do I look like a biologist?
You look like a pauper, but that's incidental.
S2 E9Bottom of the World
[to Olfin Tennety] I know you have history with Amanda. I also know you're a liar and a thief, and were you slightly more intelligent, you'd be a mass murderer too. Now, I can prove all these things. Toddle that well-marbled ass back over there and pick up your own damn bags.
I am a monster. You have no idea the things I've done.
S2 E10Doll Parts
The most we can hope for is that what we want is worth the evil we do.
I've just gone to a great deal of trouble to free our son from the lawkeeper's jail.
You're a good mother.
Is that sarcasm?
Oh, if you have to ask, it probably is. So Alak, did he do it?
I think we both know the answer to that.
Do we?
I know you placed the microphone under his bed. What I don't know is why.
What microphone?
Are you seriously trying to tell me you did not kill Deirdre?
Well, actually, I assumed it was you.
Then who - [Stahma realizes, and breaks into laughter]

If you want anything in this world, you have to fight for it!
