Season one ღ

"You know the problem with drawing lines in the sand? With a breath of air, they disappear."
Red to Liz. Episode 1x07

"Have you ever sailed across an ocean, Donald? On a sailboat, surrounded by sea
with no land in sight, without even the possibility of sighting land for days to come?
To stand at the helm of your destiny. I want that, one more time.
I want to be in the Piazza del Campo in Siena. To feel the surge as 10 racehorses
go thundering by. I want another meal in Paris, at L'Ambroisie, at the Place des Vosges.
I want another bottle of wine. And then another.
I want the warmth of a woman and a cool set of sheets.
One more night of jazz at the Vanguard. I want to stand on the summits
and smoke Cubans and feel the sun on my face for as long as I can.
Walk on the Wall again. Climb the Tower. Ride the River. Stare at the Frescos.
I want to sit in the garden and read one more good book. Most of all I want to sleep.
I want to sleep like I slept when I was a boy. Give me that, just one time.
That's why I won't allow that punk out there to get the best of me, let alone the last of me."
Red to Ressler. Episode 1x09

"It was Christmas Eve. I pulled off to the side of the road, seemed like it'd been snowing for days.
No traffic. No cars to come help. Just me and a car full of gifts. It was more than 20 year ago.
I must have walked four miles. Five, maybe. It was so still. Just cold and white.
The whole time all I could think about was them in our house.
The warm light in the windows. The smoke from the chimney. The sound of my daughter
at the piano. The smell of the tree, and the fire, oyster stew on the stove.
I was so upset to think that I'd ruined Christmas for them, being late, leaving the gifts in the car.
But the closer I got, the more I realized how funny the whole thing was.
How much they'd love the story. Daddy running out of gas.
How every Christmas they'd get such joy from telling that story at my expense.
And then finally, I got there, I walked... I walked through the door.
And there was just blood. All I saw was blood. All there was was blood.
I can still smell the nape of her neck. Feel her little... fingers on my cheek. Her whisper in my ear.
That's why I didn't show up in Florence. It's why I haven't shown up in a lot of places over the years."
Red to Madeline Pratt. Episode 1x14

"There you are. What the hell happened to you? You just leave me stranded with awful Algerian.
He's been hitting on me for 20 minutes.
Well, not secure enough if you ask me, sister. You know what?
Why don't ask Rasil? We wouldn't even be here if it weren't for that troublemaker.
Always an agenda with him. Cultural attache. Culture, my ass.
The things I do for this one. Gallivanting around the globe for you little assignations
with you know, hmm-hmm. Carrying her furs and bikinis as if I wouldn't rather be back in Dutchess County with my shelties.
Hey, don't take anything for granted. Everything you have was bought and paid for by your boyfriend.
Do you have any idea who's horn this tr*mp is blowing?
Let's just say it starts with Bashiar, and ends with Assad,
gassing you faster than a Sunni. So let's get her out of the hot seat and into a limo.
Good God, crumbs up! Your cummerbund. Pleats up. You look like Bob Yashimura in eighth grade swing choir. It's upside down.
Red. Episode 1x14

"My greatest enemy brought her back and my best friend took her away."
Ressler to Bobby Jonica. Episode 1x16

”There is nothing that can take the pain away.
But eventually, you will find a way to live with it. There will be nightmares.
And everyday when you wake up, it will be the first thing you think about.
Until one day, it’s the second.“
Red to Ressler. Episode 1x16

I didn't know where else to go."
Liz to Ressler. Episode 1x20

Season two ღ

"When you love someone you have no control. That’s what love is. Being powerless."
Red to Liz. Episode 2x08

"I don't know who I am. I don't know if this is my birthday.
I don't even know my own name.
Liz to Ressler. Episode 2x17

“You could see to her education, health insurance, housing.
You can watch her or have her watched, keep her safe. Try and ascertain her hopes,
dreams, desires. Pull strings, call in the favours to discretely smooth the path.
And the first few years, it may work. You will grow some measure
of virtue from being her invisible benefactor. But that won’t last. It’s all a fraud.
That it’s not really about her at all. That its all about you.
And you are just going through the emotions to solve your own guilt.
With all the money, all the time and effort, all the favours in the world
can not possibly equal to what you took away from her.
Everything else is.. is just a nice gesture.”
Red to Liz. Episode 2x16

"I risked my life for you because I care about you. Deal with that."
Liz to Red. Episode 2x14

"Maybe you should stop thinking about it and do it."
Dembe to Red. Episode 2x15

]"Get well soon, b*tch. We have some partying to do."
Aram on Cooper's get well card. Episode 2x16

Don't ask me to feel your pain Liz. I've got more than enough of my own."
Ressler to Liz. Episode 2x13

You know, for what it's worth, I spent four months on that ship chained up and I never told her about us. Not one word.
Tom to Red. Episode 2x08

"The FBI is in the business of my business. Why else would I be in business with the FBI?"
Red to Liz. Episode 2x05

Thanks for the new thread, Miranda!

The third one already!

Proof for the amazing quotes we get week to week!

Miranda · 10-22-2015, 10:39 AM

You're welcome

It's all thanks to Red and everybody else that we are at the third one already!

Lauren Helen Graham · 10-22-2015, 11:53 AM

And the title is so funny. I don't even know who Nietzsche is

Miranda · 10-23-2015, 05:18 AM

I don't know either!

We got a couple really great quotes last night.

Aram: "I am so happy to see you."

Aram: "You look nice."

Lauren Helen Graham · 10-25-2015, 03:46 AM

I especially love the one from Red when he tells the blond woman: "It appears we're all good at reading people. What fun." and I was so wondering if that was a hidden message addressed on Liz.

Miranda · 10-25-2015, 10:20 AM

I think that was definitely a hint towards Liz but I don't know if she picked it up.

Lauren Helen Graham · 10-26-2015, 12:30 PM

I somehow really start to doubt that ever had a training as a profiler

If she doesn't even pick that up... It was as if he'd swing a fence on her.

Miranda · 10-27-2015, 08:47 AM

I doubt that sometimes as well. She is using the skills that she has been thaught and that is just sad. She could have used it to her advantage.

Lauren Helen Graham · 10-31-2015, 01:59 PM

Yeah... Somehow it's not nice to watch her do whatever she does.

So here are this weeks quotes:

"You know what I am? I’m scared because I thought for a moment that Keen was gone... I thought that I... "

Miranda · 11-01-2015, 06:22 AM

Amazing quotes again this episode! I really loved these as well:

Ressler: “Elizabeth Keen is not a terrorist.”

Lauren Helen Graham · 11-01-2015, 11:34 AM

The comment of Red's, when he told Aram that they would have to kill Lizzie made me really giggle... Especially Aram's and Lizzie's reaction

I loved that.

And Ressler and him telling Aram to never hug him like that again... Do you think that was meant in a bad way or him just trying to stand his ground.

Miranda · 11-04-2015, 11:29 AM

That was a really good one! But Red said it so serious that I was sure that Aram would take it the wrong way.

I don't think Ressler's "Don't hug me like that again" was meant in a bad way. He is a tough guy and tough guys don't hug other guys so I think that is why he said it.

Lauren Helen Graham · 11-05-2015, 08:24 AM

I need to bring that scene over here

x

Miranda · 11-05-2015, 02:03 PM

That was a great scene. "Wait bad connection."

Thanks for bringing it over here.
