“they tell their children to stay close to the light. their light, their reason, their judgment. because in the darkness there be dragons. but it isn’t true. we can prove that it isn’t true. in the dark, there is discovery. there is possibility—there is freedom in the dark, once someone has illuminated it. and who has been so close to doing that as we are right now?”

”they took everything from us. then they call me a monster? the moment i sign that pardon, the moment i ask for one-i proclaim to the world they were right. this ends when i grant them my forgiveness, not the other way around.”

max’s apology to anne in season 4 but specifically “i’m so sorry for working so hard to protect the wrong things. for failing to see that there is nothing important that does not include you.”

”i want to watch this city—this city that you purchased with our misery—burn. i want to pull the lever with my own two hands.” :( so good though

”these men who brought me here today do not fear me. they brought me here today because they fear you. and they know that my voice, my voice that refuses to be enslaved, once lived in you…but know this. to fear death is a choice. and they can’t hang us all. get on with it, motherfucker.” (I FORGOT THE MIDDLE IM SORRY)

special shout-out to anne’s “it ain’t fear to want to do a hard thing smart” and max’s “this place is just sand eleanor it cannot love you back” and flint’s “everyone is a monster to someone. if you are so convinced that i am yours, i will be it.” and silver’s “are you FUCKING kidding me?”
