Samuel quotes from Heroes

Samuel

You were stalling. You kept me talking.

Claire

You seem to like to talk.

Claire

Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you.

Samuel

Sounds deep.

Claire

Sartre. College.

Samuel

[chuckles] I always thought freedom was just another word for 'nothing left to lose'.

Claire

That too.

Samuel

Do you know how powerful I can really be? If I brought them all here? My brother said I could move mountains, cities. I wonder, is it true? Can I change the world?

I hope to God we never find out.

Samuel

Claire, you will inherit this new world; it's your legacy. And you will remind them what I've done long after I've gone. That's why it's so important for you to be a part of our family.

Claire

You are desperate. And you're small. I will never be a part of your family.

Samuel

I see you've found my power!

Peter

Funny how that works isn't it? I'm not gonna let you hurt anyone now.

Samuel

Peter, you of all people should know they have to fear us! That's the only way they'll respect us. All you've ever wanted is respect. We both know what it's like to live in the shadow of a brother. Joseph destroyed my potential, kept me down, just like your brother.

Peter

My brother didn't let me down. He built me up.
