Barry Allen quotes from The Flash

Barry

Hey, Ollie, um... look, I'm sorry that I laid all this on you. I know that it wasn't fair...

Oliver

That's okay. And I'm sorry if earlier I was a little --

Barry

Snippy?

Oliver

I have been called worse. No, but I'm glad that you're here, I'm glad you reached out. It shows a real maturity. And I would know that, because I've never been that mature. [Barry laughs at that.] Well, I'm always here for you.

Barry

Thank you. I gotta say, this isn't the same Arrow team I'm used to seeing, or the same Oliver Queen. You seem really...

Oliver

Happy?

Barry

Happy, yeah.

Oliver

I am happy. I finally have everything that I've ever wanted. Being with Felicity has given me a real sense of peace. Something that I haven't had in a long time.

Barry

Didn't you tell me that guys like us don't get the girl?

Oliver

Yep... I was wrong. [Departs quickly as Barry chuckles at Oliver's admission.]

Iris

I know I was so mad at you and my dad for not telling me that you were The Flash, but when I found out about this, I didn't know what to do.

Barry

What? What's going on?

Iris

When Francine came back, my dad told me not to trust her, and he was right. I didn't know how much. When my mother left us, she was pregnant. She had a son. Joe's son, my brother.

Barry

What's his name?

Iris

Wally. Wally West.

Cocoa isn't cocoa without the mini marshmallows, and you're out. I checked.

Barry

[Speeding Snart into the wall] Are you out of your mind?! Breaking into my home?!

Careful. I added an upgrade to the Cold Gun. If i release my grip on the handle the core goes critical. You might make it.... [gestures over to Iris] She won't.

Sorry, I'm not interested in being a hero.

Barry

You've done a pretty lousy job of being a villain this week.

Merry Christmas, Barry.

Barry

So the last time Mardon attacked, he generated a tidal wave that destroyed all of Central City.

Wells

So why are you not all sleeping with the fishes?

Cisco

Earth 2 has The Godfather?

Wells

Every Earth has The Godfather, Vito.

Barry

Who is the Turtle?

Caitlin

It's Cisco's white whale.

Jay

Half whale, half turtle.

Admit to me you're the Flash and I'll stay.

Barry

I can't do that. I'm not him.

[choking up] That's too bad, it would have been nice to stay. Fight crime during the... day, and be with... you at night. But I was... I was wrong. Take care, Barry.

Cisco

Who's the best hacker in the world, people?

[together] Felicity Smoak.

Cisco

What is wrong with you two? That's not friendship.

Barry

[about Wally] Yeah, but he just found the best dad he could wish for.

Joe

Oh, you say that now, you didn't always think that.

Barry

Well, you were pretty strict. That's for sure. But strict isn't always a bad thing, especially when you know it's coming from love.

Cisco

So, you can sync up all social media postings on all meta-human activity. Somebody sees something cray in Central City, I get an alert about it.

Barry

Yo, man, you have too much time on your hands.

Cisco

Oh, I thought you were gonna say it was cool.... I'm just saying, you can't judge me. Didn't your girlfriend just break up with you?

Barry

Again?

Cisco

Pretty sure she just did.

Barry

Hey, Harry.... Wait, so if that app gives you eyes and ears all over the city, then why won't you use it to find the next Miss Right?

Cisco

[realizing] Did I just make the metahuman Tinder?

Barry

Mm-hmm.

Cisco

Nope. Not staring that fetish.

Barry

Caitlin.

I haven't heard that name in a long time.

Barry

But that is your name, isn't it? Your real name? Please, look... I know you. Don't do this.

If you know me at all, you would know that I hate the name Caitlin. I'm Killer Frost.

Cisco

A lady speedster. It only took us two years, but we finally got one. A lady speedster. Hey, here's a question for you. Purely scientific. Was she good looking?

Barry

Yeah, I was a little busy getting my ass handed to me, so I didn't really notice.

Cisco

Right, right, right. But you know, next time. For science.

Barry

Okay, yeah. Next time she punches me in the face, I'll be sure to get her number.

Cisco

There you go.

Barry

If the game is already rigged, why can't I level the playing field? I mean, if everybody else is cheating, how can... I want to be fast enough to stop Zoom and any speedster that tries to hurt my friends. Shouldn't I use everything in my power to do that?

Wells

You want to take a shortcut? Is that right, you want to take a shortcut? Remember this: you'll lose a chunk of your humanity every time you compromise your values.

Barry

[scoffs] I'm sorry, that's really good coming from you.

Wells

So don't be like me. Be better. [turns and walks off] Be like Jay

Wally

[discussing an engineering project] Well, I really like to read the journals of the classic engineers. So, their engine designs and how they increased horsepower... learn from the best, I guess.

Barry

You read their journals?

Wally

I mean, it's not like I can just go and talk to Enzo Ferrari or Ferdinand Porsche 'cause... they dead. But, you know, doesn't mean they still can't teach me.

Barry

I didn't know what it was. I thought it was some sort of illusion. I don't know.

Caitlin

Okay, we need to find it before it hurts somebody.

Barry

Can you track it?

Cisco

What is it with you guys? It's like you think I have ESP or something. I can't just magically sense where things are.
