Logan Roy quotes from Succession

Logan Roy

That was your best shot. You lost.

Logan Roy

[to his daughter Shiv] You're marrying a man fathoms beneath you because you don't want to risk being betrayed. You're a fucking coward.

Logan Roy

Oh, here he is! Mr. Potato Head! My plastic adversary.

Logan Roy

You're such fucking dopes. You're not serious figures. I love you... but you are not... [sighs] ...serious people.

Logan Roy

I wanna make what-- I think is-- fairly a historic-- announcement. I'm-- convinced-- that-- Roman Roy-- has-- a-- micro-- dick, and-- always-- gets it wrong.

Logan Roy

[receiving a gift from Connor] Oh, wonderful. What is it?

Connor Roy

Well...

Roman Roy

Oh yes, yes, it's a goo. It's a fucking goo?

Shiv Roy

It's perfect.

Connor Roy

It's sourdough starter. I thought that you might like to make something.

Logan Roy

Ohh... great.

Connor Roy

Yeah, okay. You shouldn't have opened it. Never mind. Forget it. It was an idea. I thought you might like it.

Logan Roy

I do, I do. I just don't know what the fuck it is!

Kendall Roy

I wasn't about to get into a fucking big dick competition, okay?

Logan Roy

I hear you bent for him.

Kendall Roy

Wha... I what?

Logan Roy

I hear you bent for him, and he fucked you.

Kendall Roy

Well, no, actually.

Logan Roy

You know, I know that you've read a lot of books about business management and this and that, but you know what?

Kendall Roy

What?

Logan Roy

Sometimes, it is a big dick competition.

Logan Roy

It's my fucking company.

Kendall Roy

Yeah you're right, it is your fucking company. And you know what? You're running it into the fucking ground.

Frank Vernon

Is it wise to fire the board with the share price this weak, heading into a political fight?

Logan Roy

Take it like a fucking man. You're out. You're fucked. You tried to kill me, but you failed. And you're dead. Now, fuck off!

Logan Roy

I don't like being outside the U.S. for too long.

Gil Eavis

Doesn't sit well.

Logan Roy

And there's a mercilessness I miss.

Gil Eavis

I'm not used to these squalid little deals.

Logan Roy

Yeah, living with the safety catch off, fuckin' without a rubber. Everywhere else feels so soft. I mean, look at this fuckin' place.

Gil Eavis

Yeah, well, it-- it's all quite refined.

Logan Roy

Refined? Ahh. Slaves. Cotton, and sugar. This country's nothing but an off-shore laundry for turning evil into hard currency.

Gil Eavis

[laughs] Is this where you tell me you're working for the communists?

Logan Roy

And now it just lies here, y'know, living off its capital, sucking in immigrants to turn it and stop it from getting bed sores.

Logan Roy

Tell Sandy you're out. Tell Stewy the thing looks like shitshow. Go to the desert, dry yourself out. You have not been yourself.

Kendall Roy

[tearfully] There's nothing... I don't, I don't think, um... I wasn't there, so...

Logan Roy

This could be the defining moment of your life. It'd eat everything. A rich kid kills a boy, you'd never be anything else. Or, y'know, it could be what it should be: nothing at all. A sad, little detail at a lovely wedding where father and son are reconciled.

Logan Roy

[hugging Kendall] You're my boy. You're my number one boy.

Logan Roy

[finding out that Roman tried to betray him] Roman, did someone get at you?

Roman Roy

Dad, I didn't betray you.

Kendall Roy

[holding Roman's phone] Then what's this call from today? Why are you talking to her? [Naomi Pierce]

Roman Roy

[nervously] Come on, man. [to Logan] I wasn't trying to fuck the deal. I was trying to land the deal. I was trying to help. I... I thought it would be a nice surprise.

Logan Roy

[short pause] Roman, you're a moron.

Kendall Roy

[to Logan on Roman] Boar on the Floor, wouldn't you say?

Roman Roy

[to Kendall] Fuck you. [to Logan] I am not a moron, dad.

Logan Roy

[short pause] How much is a gallon of milk?

Roman Roy

What?

Logan Roy

How much is a gallon of milk?

Roman Roy

I don't know. I mean, who the fuck knows, dad? Literally no one knows. Who gives a shit?

Logan Roy

Ray!

Yeah.

Logan Roy

How much is a gallon of milk?

Uh-- Uh, wh-- I mean, like regular milk, or, uh...

Logan Roy

I am surrounded by snakes and fucking morons! You're a bunch of silk-stocking fucks! [pause] Who backs me on Pierce?! Hmm?! Who?!

Kendall Roy

None of them do, dad. They're all against it, okay? Karl's lying, Ray's lying, Gerri's playing both sides.

Logan Roy

[pause] Well, [laughs] here's news: We are going after it. And what's more. [pointing to everyone in the dining room, in furious anger] I. Will. Win!

Greg Hirsch

Well, I j-- I gotta say, well done. You won.

Logan Roy

Yeah. Yeah. Money wins.

Hugo Baker

And Roman, the safe place is the three R's, okay?

Roman Roy

Yeah.

Hugo Baker

Regret. It happened a long time ago. Responsibility. Belongs to individuals and not corporations. Remedy. Super tough, super vague. The move is condemn and move on. Got it?

Roman Roy

Yeah, got it.

Hugo Baker

Okay.

Gerri Kellman

Right, and if you need to smash glass in case of emergency, it's enough of that and back to the session: "Family Ownership & Corporate Continuity in the Digital Age."

Logan Roy

Whatever the fuck that means.

Shiv Roy

Don't like the past too much, huh?

Logan Roy

I do. I do. It's, uh... it's just... there's so much of it. The future is real, but... the past, well, it's... Yeah. Um... it's all made up.
