Brother Sam quotes from Dexter

Dexter

Sounds like you're trying to get me to go to church.

Brother Sam

So what? What? You afraid you gonna catch something?

Brother Sam

It's about, surrender to something greater than yourself.

Dexter

I don't get it.

Brother Sam

Man, just look around. You think you can make the sun come up in the morning? You think you can make the tide come in?

Dexter

No, but that's the Earth rotating on its axis, the pull of the moon.

Brother Sam

So you do believe in something greater than yourself.

Brother Sam

I'm glad little man is all right.

Dexter

Yeah - me too.

Brother Sam

I know. Thank God.

Dexter

That's just an expression.

Brother Sam

I know - just another marvel of modern science.

Dexter

Yeah, you put your faith in God, I put my faith in science.

Brother Sam

It's cool. We don't have to believe in the same thing, but you got to keep an open mind. You may say I can't prove that God exists, but you can't prove he doesn't.

Dexter

I'm gonna put him to bed. I'll just be a few minutes.

Brother Sam

All right. Good night, little man.

Dexter

Make yourself at home.

Brother Sam

Thank you.

Dexter

[Voiceover: And now, I guess, Sam and I are gonna hang.]

Dexter

Sam. I'm here. Don't worry. I know it was Nick who shot you. I'm gonna make sure he pays.

Brother Sam

No. Don't do that.

Dexter

I don't understand.

Brother Sam

I want you to...to give a Nick a message from me.

Dexter

Yes.

Brother Sam

Tell him that I forgive him.

Dexter

What?

Brother Sam

You're the only one that I trust to do it. I didn't tell anybody. The boys from the shop, they wouldn't... They... They're not ready.

Dexter

You're wrong, I can't do this.

Brother Sam

You can.

Dexter

You don't know me.

Brother Sam

Yes, I do. I know about your darkness. But I also see your light.

Dexter

If there's light in me, I don't feel it. I just wanna hurt Nick. You don't know how much I wanna hurt him.

Brother Sam

You need to forgive him.

Dexter

I don't know how.

Brother Sam

Just let it go. Can't live with the hate in your heart. Eat you up inside. We gotta find some peace in life.

Dexter

Nick doesn't deserve it.

Brother Sam

It ain't about him. Dexter, if you don't let that darkness go, it won't let go of you. Let it go. Let it go.
