How do you do it? How do you stay sane? What's the secret?
Walter: Knowing when to lie, and when to tell the truth.
Nikita: To them?
Walter: To yourself. At night you go to bed knowing you live in hell. That's the truth.
Nikita: And the lie?
Walter: And you wake up in the morning thinking that this day may change everything…you'll escape, you'll fall in love, they'll close the place up and send everybody home.
Nikita: Then that night you have to face the truth again.
Walter: Yeah. But in the meantime, you've accomplished something that's truly remarkable. You've made it through another day.
