Bonnie Winterbottom quotes from How to Get Away With Murder

Bonnie

I want you to die. That's what I want. That it was you they killed in this house. Not Sam because he'd have never done this to me.

Bonnie

You know, we could stop. Let it all burn. We'll all go to jail. But is this really better than that?

Bonnie

That's you right now, not me.

Bonnie

Maybe I just made it all up. That we were the same. We were both abused. We both lost babies. But maybe that's what screwed us up, too. 'Cause she wanted a child, and I wanted to be what she wanted.

Bonnie

I was so desperate for someone who wouldn't rape me that I took what I could get, and that's not love. That's trauma. And that's what you should be telling me right now. That I am right to hate her, that I am right to want to hurt her.

Bonnie

It's just easier to hate her.

Bonnie

We're not the same. And that's what you've never understood. You made me into you. Or you tried. And so you brought home the sad, trashy, abused girl and dressed her up like you. Until you realized that she would never be who you wanted, so you just threw her out into the street like she was just another intern. Like everything she'd ever done for you meant nothing, because she's nothing.

Bonnie

It's not that I'm like you. It's that I love you. Isaac helped me see it, that all of this, every insane thing that we do to each other, it's a form of love!

Bonnie

This is me knowing what I want. And I know that I love you and that I need you, and maybe you can love me, too, and that's okay. It's all okay.

Asher

I object to working on this case on moral grounds.

Bonnie

Then you can go work at another law office.

Asher

Really? You're going to fire me when I can file a sexual harassment suit?

Bonnie

Do you trust me?

Asher

Yeah.

Bonnie

Then believe me when I say I will tell you when it's time to freak out. We're not there yet.

Bonnie

I am pathetic. I know.

You've been my patient a month now, and that is not a word that I would use to describe you.
