- Piper Chapman: I believe in science. I believe in evolution. I believe in Nate Silver and Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Christopher Hitchens. Although I do admit he could be a kind of an asshole. I cannot get behind some supreme being who weighs in on the Tony Awards while a million people get whacked with machetes. I don't believe a billion Indians are going to hell. I don't think we get cancer to learn life lessons, and I don't believe that people die young because God needs another angel. I think it's just bullshit, and on some level, I think we all know that, I mean, don't you?... Look I understand that religion makes it easier to deal with all of the random shitty things that happen to us. And I wish I could get on that ride, I'm sure I would be happier. But I can't . Feeling aren't enough. I need it to be real

- Piper Chapman: No! You are great the way that you are!
- Suzanne 'Crazy Eyes' Warren: I know! Because the answer is, you're not a nice person. You're a mean person. And I used to think you was a yellow dandelion, but psshh... you're all dried up with the puff blown off. And it's not your fault. You are who you are, like I am who I am.
- Piper Chapman: You want me to be angry? Well, guess what, I'm really fucking angry because I love you, Alex. I love you and I fucking hate you.
- Piper Chapman: Miss Claudette, I want to apologize to you for everything that Larry said. I had no idea it was gonna...
- Miss Claudette Pelage: I know the stories they say about me, Chapman. I wish you'd thought enough of me to ask for the truth.
- Cal Chapman: I'm gonna go ahead and assume that one of the issues here is your need to say that a person is exactly anything.
