These are my favorite quotes from the past week, mostly from shows currently on the air, but also other random things I happen to be watching.

Black Sails
Madi: It will be difficult, but since when did we expect it to be anything else?

Israel: You don’t know, hmm? You don’t know? Why should I follow you if you don’t know? Why would anyone? I don’t give a shit what goes on in there. Fuck Flint. Don’t fuck Flint. Fuck Billy. Don’t fuck Billy. I don’t give a shit what you choose, but fucking choose! And don’t make me suffer the thinking. Worry ain’t a good look for a king. Not in a kingdom like this, where loyalty is in short supply.

Big Little Lies
Madeline: I love my grudges. I tend to them like little pets.

Supergirl
Winn: Holy Cadmus creme egg!

Mon-El: What do we do?
Kara: We get up.
Mon-El: Yeah, we do.

The Flash
Joe: Hold on. Y’all want to put a bunch of magnets against my skull to look into the mind of a psychotic, murderous ape?
Wells: Yeah.
Joe: …Fine.

One Tree Hill
Clay: Sometimes I think that we waste our words and we waste our moments and we don’t take the time to say the things that are in our hearts when we have the chance.

Arrow
Curtis: These are two inventions of mine, two autonomous mini-drones.
Rene: So, what, you can’t handle yourself on the field, you gotta give yourself a pair of balls? …That was too harsh, wasn’t it?
Curtis: It was, yeah, but you know what, you recognized it.
Rene: I’m trying to work on it.
Curtis: It’s progress.

The Vampire Diaries
Alaric: We’ve all made terrible mistakes in our lives. Done things that no apology can heal. But you just have to keep going, try to find some new happiness, no matter how much you’ve lost. Strange thing is, losing those people was what brought us together. It’s how we found each other. It’s what made us family.
