Dean Winchester quotes from Supernatural

Sam

If you had just let me go in there, I could have ended all this.

Dean

Sam, the only thing you would have ended was your life.

Sam

You don't know that.

Dean

So, what, you're just willing to sacrifice yourself, is that it?

Sam

Yeah. Yeah, you're damned right I am.

Dean

Yeah, well, that's not gonna happen — not as long as I'm around.

Sam

What the hell are you talkin' about, Dean? We've been searching for this demon our whole lives. It's the only thing we've ever cared about.

Dean

Sam, I wanna waste it. I do, okay? But it's not worth dyin' over.

Sam

What?

Dean

I mean it. If huntin' this demon means you gettin' yourself killed, then I hope we never find the damned thing!

Sam

That thing killed Jess! That thing killed Mom!

Dean

You said yourself once...that no matter what we do, they're gone. And they're never comin' back.

Sam

Don't you say that! Don't you — not after all this, don't you say that!

Dean

[emotionally] Sammy, look...the three of us — that's all we have. And that's all I have. Sometimes I feel like I'm barely holdin' it together, man. Without you and Dad...

Dean

To tell you the truth, I wasn't sure if we should come.

Bobby

Nonsense. Your daddy needs help.

Dean

Yeah, but last time we saw you, I mean, you did threaten to blast him full of buckshot. Cocked the shotgun and everything.

Bobby

Yeah, well, what can I say? John just has that effect on people.

Meg

No more crap, okay? [demonically throws Dean against the wall] I want the Colt, Sam — the real Colt. Right now.

Sam

We don’t have it on us. We buried it.

Meg

Didn't I say, "No more crap"? I swear, after everything I heard about you Winchesters, I've got to tell you, I'm a little underwhelmed. First, Johnny tries to pawn off a fake gun, and then he leaves the real gun with you two chuckleheads. Lackluster men. I mean, did you really think I wouldn't find you?

Dean

Actually, we were counting on it. [gestures to the demon trap above her] Gotcha.

He's gonna taste the iron in your blood.

Dean

Let him go, or I swear to God...

What? What are you and God gonna do? You see as far as I'm concerned, this is justice. You know that little exorcism of yours? That was my daughter.

Dean

Who, Meg?

The one in the alley? That was my boy. You understand?

Dean

You've got to be kidding me.

What? You the only one that can have a family? You destroyed my children. How would you feel if I killed your family? Oh, that's right, I forgot I did. Still, two wrongs don't make a right.

Dean

You son of a bitch.

Sam

I wanna know why. Why'd you do it?

You mean why'd I kill Mommy and pretty little Jess?

Sam

Yeah.

[to Dean] You know I never told you this, but Sam was going to ask her to marry him. Been shopping for rings and everything. You wanna know why? Because they got in the way.

Sam

In the way of what?

My plans for you, Sammy — you, and all the children like you.

Dean

Listen, you mind just getting this over with, because I really can't stand the monologuing.

Funny. But that's all part of your M.O., isn't it? Mask all that nasty pain, mask the truth.

Dean

Oh, yeah? What's that?

You know you fight, and you fight for this family — but the truth is, they don't need you, not like you need them. Sam, he's clearly John's favorite. Even when they fight, it's more concern than he's ever shown you.

Dean

I bet you're real proud of your kids, too, huh? Oh wait, I forgot, I wasted them.

I just think, whatever's going to happen is going to happen. It's out of my control; it's just fate.

Dean

That's crap. You always have a choice. You can either roll over and die or you can keep fighting, no matter what.

Sam

Hey. I think maybe you're around, and if you are, don't make fun of me for this, but, um, there's one way we can talk.

Dean

Oh, you've got to be kidding me.

Sam

Dean? Dean, are you here?

Dean

God, I feel like I'm at a slumber party.

John

How you feeling, dude?

Dean

Fine, I guess. I'm alive.

John

That's what matters.

Sam

Where were you last night?

John

I had some things to take care of.

Sam

Well, that's specific.

Dean

Come on, Sam.

Sam

Did you go after the Demon?

John

No.

Sam

You know, why don't I believe you right now?

John

Can we not fight? You know, half the time we're fighting I don't know what we're fighting about. We're just butting heads. Look, Sammy I've, I've made some mistakes. But I've always done the best I could. I just don't want to fight anymore, okay?

Sam

Dad, are you all right?

John

Yeah... Yeah, I'm just a little tired. Hey, Sam, would you mind, uh, do you mind getting me a cup of caffeine?

Sam

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

Dean

What is it?

John

You know when... when you were a kid, I'd come home from a hunt. And after what I'd seen, I'd be... I'd be wrecked. And you... you'd come up to me and you, you'd put your hand on my shoulder and you'd look me in they eye and you'd... you'd say 'It's okay, Dad.' Dean, I'm sorry.

Dean

Why?

John

You shouldn't have had to say that to me. I-I should've been saying that to you. You know, I put- I put too much on your shoulders. I made you grow up too fast. You took care of Sammy, you took care of me. You did that. And you didn't complain, not once. I just want you to know that I am so proud of you.

Dean

This really you talking?

John

Yeah. Yeah, it's really me.

Dean

Why you saying this stuff?

John

I want you to watch out for Sammy, okay?

Dean

Yeah Dad, you know I will. You're scaring me.

John

Don't be scared, Dean. [whispers something in his ear]

Dean

Stop it, Sam.

Sam

Stop what?

Dean

Stop askin' if I need anything, stop askin' if I'm okay. I'm okay. Really. I promise.

Sam

All right. Dean, it's just... we've been at Bobby's for over a week now and you haven't brought up Dad once.

Dean

You know what, you're right. Come here. I'm gonna lay my head gently on your shoulder. Maybe we can cry, and hug and maybe even slow dance.

Dean

[looking around Harvelle's, the barrel of a rifle is placed against his back] Oh, God, please let that be a rifle.

Jo

Nah, I'm just real happy to see you.

You two have never worked a show in your lives before, have you?

Dean

Nope. But we really need the work. So... and ah, Sam here's got a thing for the bearded lady.

Dean

I just think it's really interesting, this sudden obedience you have to Dad. It's like, "Oh, what would Dad want me to do?" Sam, you spent your entire life sluggin' it out with that man. I mean, hell, you picked a fight with him the last time you ever saw him, and now that he's dead, now you want to make it right? Well, I'm sorry, Sam, but you can't. It's too little, too late.

Sam

Why are you sayin' this to me?

Dean

Because I want you to be honest with yourself about this! I'm dealin' with Dad's death! Are you?

Sam

You were right.

Dean

About what?

Sam

About me and Dad. I'm sorry that the last time I was with him, I tried to pick a fight. I'm sorry that I spent most of my life angry at him. I mean, for all I know, he died thinkin' that I hate him. So, you're right. What I'm doin' right now - it is too little. It's too late. [pause] I miss him, man. And I feel guilty as hell. [He is on the verge of tears.] And I'm not all right. Not at all. [pause] But neither are you. That much I know. I'll let you get back to work. [He leaves.]

Sam

You know, if you two wanna get a room, just let me know, Dean.

Dean

[to the Impala] Oh, don't listen to him, Baby. He doesn't understand us.

Dean

Did you check out that Barker farm?

Gordon

It's a bust. Just a bunch of hippie freaks. Though they could kill you with that patchouli smell alone.

Gordon

You know why I love this life?

Dean

Hmm?

Gordon

It's all black and white. There's no maybe. Find the bad thing, kill it. You see, most people spend their lives in shades of gray. "Is this right, is that wrong?" Not us.
