Dexter Morgan quotes from Dexter

Dexter

[voiceover] The babysitter doesn't trust me because of the lies; Lumen doesn't trust me because of the truth. There must be a name for that. Oh, right, Dexter Morgan.

Dexter

[To Harrison] Ten months old and you've had your first cigarette. Sorry about that.

Dexter

[voiceover] We all have something to hide, some dark place inside us we don't want the world to see. So we pretend that everything's okay, wrapping ourselves in rainbows. That's all for the best, because some of these places are darker than others.

Dexter

[voiceover] I want to believe that smile, that watching your mother die hasn't changed you the way it changed me.

Dexter

[voiceover] Not even a year old and you're already destroying evidence. And having to flee the scene of the crime.

Dexter

I think his little black book has a few blank pages.

Dexter

Dexter

[on Boyd] From the outside, a normal home is indistinguishable from the home of a monster who puts women in barrels.

Dexter

[voiceover] Rainbows are an illusion, refracted light to make us think there's something there and there's really not. Is there darkness in Harrison or is it just my own fear being reflected back?

Dexter

[voiceover] Another part of my life packed away.

Dexter

[voiceover] Lumen didn't witness her mother's murder, but she was born in blood like me. Some experiences are so big they change your DNA.

Dexter

[on Jordan Chase] If that's the watch Lumen heard, I'll make sure it accompanies you to the bottom of the Atlantic.

Dexter

[voiceover about Harrison] He doesn't need Saint Brigid; he has father Dexter.

Dexter

[voiceover] That's either a saint or the most boring action figure I've ever seen.

Dexter

[voiceover as he watches Lumen play with Harrison] Sometimes partners find us, and as much as we try to push them away, they work their way into our lives, regardless - until we finally realize how much we need them.
