- John Murphy: There are a million ways to die out there.
- Thelonious Jaha: If it's not your time, nothing can kill you. If it is your time, it only takes one.
- Lexa: [a fierce beast pounding on the door] Don't worry, Clarke, death is not the end.
- Clarke Griffin: We're not dying here. I need your spirit to stay where it is.
- Thelonious Jaha: [at his son's grave site] What happened to him?
- John Murphy: A twelve year old girl stabbed him in the neck with my knife.
- Thelonious Jaha: Why would she so that?
- John Murphy: Because she couldn't kill you.

- Bellamy Blake: Okay, we make it to the intake door without any of the real Reapers seeing us. What happens then?
- Lincoln: We kill everyone.
- John Murphy: No one gives anything without expecting something in return.
- Thelonious Jaha: That's a cynical way to go through life, John.
- Thelonious Jaha: I know you don't wanna hear this but sometimes, you have to sacrifice the few to save the many. Like I said... good can come out of even the darkest acts.
- John Murphy: Then you can take it from me that no good has come from any of this.
- Quint: She says she has a plan. I say, waiting for one man to get inside is not a very good one.
- Penn: I agree with Quint. We have an army, let's use it.
- Clarke Griffin: We will. After Bellamy lowers their defenses, turns off the acid fog. I don't care how many men you have. If you can't get to your enemy, you can't win.
- Quint: You are the enemy.
- Clarke Griffin: I'm sorry. Have I done something to offend you?
- Quint: Yes. You burned my brother alive in a ring of fire.
- Clarke Griffin: He shouldn't have attacked my ship.
- Quint: You're very brave under the commanders protection.
- Lexa: Enough.
- Octavia Blake: Okay. I know. I got my ass kicked. That should make you happy.
- Indra: It does. Because you did not give up. Strength of spirit like that is rare. It must be guided. Do you know what a warrior's second is?
- Octavia Blake: An apprentice.
- Indra: I can make you a great warrior, Octavia of the sky people, if you're willing to do what it takes to become my second.
- Octavia Blake: What's in it for you?
- Indra: First lesson: never question me.
