[voiceover] Chasing after the world brings only chaos. Allowing it to come to be brings only peace. Retreat from the world and it will pursue you. To exist, to allow the world to exist, all things at once, all things as one. This is the path to serenity, to balance, see yourself as part of the world.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
[voiceover] The greatest mistake is to be continually fearful of making one. A stumble may prevent a fall. To say that we have made mistakes is to say that we are alive. When we cease to make mistakes that is the moment when we cease to be. The Buddha was once asked if he'd ever made a mistakes, he answered "I am making a mistake even now, nothing more."
RRachel
Even after what I saw, I thought you did it.
You want to know something? For a few years, when I was in prison, Rachel, I thought I did it too.
RRachel
Is that the absolute truth you tell a total stranger?
Yeah, I guess it is.
It is not what we carry with us but what we let go that defines who we are.
There are naked women in the pool.
Ted, I have made a decision.
What's that, Charlie?
I'm going swimming.
No man would hold that against you.
MRMickey Rayborn
I think this is a kidnapping.
"Kidnapping." What does that really mean? We're not kids. No one's napping. We're just two guys talking, that's all.
MRMickey Rayborn
No, no. You misunderstand me. This isn't kidnapping. This, detective, is kidnapping.
[observing a beekeeper] 30% of our food supply is dependent on bees for pollination. Fruits, nuts, vegetables, all need bees.
Well, I'm pretty sure you don't need bees to make a bacon cheeseburger.
RSRachel Seybolt
You don't have to drive around in a car full of bullet holes, you know.
Yeah I do. Maybe just for a little while longer.
TTidwell
Oh, you must be the grown up.
BBodner
Special Agent Bodner, FBI.
Are you all Special Agents? Because if you're all special, then none of you are really special then, right?
BBodner
Trust me, I'm special.
DDoctor
Here you are. It's an unusual request, detective. Most people wouldn't want to have the bullet that shot them.
Well, someone gave it to me. It would be rude just to throw it away.
[voiceover] When I wish to forgive another, what do I mean? I mean I wish to forgive myself. When I wish to harm another, what do I mean? I mean I wish to harm myself. Close your eyes and think of the world as seen from space. From that distance it is calm, silent, at peace. One.
[holding up the bullet he has just melted down and re-cast] Calm, silent, at peace. One.
You ever have a nickname?
Nope. I never did.
Would you like one?
No!
Come on, I'm real good at 'em. Want me to give you one?
Crews...
That's my name. It would be confusing if your nickname was my name.
The Buddha said we live our lives pretending to be someone else.
Oh he said that, did he?
Who did the Buddha pretend to be? He was the Buddha! …Okay, I know you’re pretty sure you’re not pretending to be someone else, but maybe Reese, maybe you’re pretending to be yourself!
How could I pretend to be myself?
Maybe the Buddha was pretending to be the Buddha. That makes sense.
Most likely, these companies didn't do anything. Let's go find out who these companies didn't do anything to.
Who these companies didn't do anything to? Do you have to talk like that?
Like what? I don't think I talk differently than anyone else does. Maybe, sometimes, I don't not say things that other people don't not say, but most other people don't not say the same things I don't. You know what I'm saying?
FAFlight Attendant
Is there anything else you need?
Well, if it's a specific question, I don't need anything. If it's a more general question...
ECErin Cordette
Excuse me. [leading him away]
...Sometimes I think I don't need anything, but I do, and just don't know it.
