Quote

He's one kind of person, you're another. When life is going along normally, you're sort of the same. But when life turns strange and scary, when there's a crisis, suddenly you're completely different people.

Sometimes I think He looks down and says, Wow, look what those idiots are up to now. I guess I better help them along a little.

Things will be different this time, Caine said. There was too much contention, too much violence the last time. I tried to be a peaceful leader. But thing went badly. I wonder why, Diana muttered. These people, Caine said grandly, sweeping his arm towards the town, need more than a leader. They need...a king.

Quinn sat back down. He leaned forward, elbows on knees. Man, don't you remember taking tests in school? Multiple choice: A, B, C, D, or E, all of the above. Yeah? Dude, sometimes the answer is 'all of the above.' This places needs you. And it needs Astrid. And it needs Sam. It's all of the above, Albert.

Sam was starting to feel anxious. Nutella and noodles were fine. Great in fact. Miraculous. But he'd been hoping for more food more water more medicine something.

No. I believe in free will. I think we make our own decisions and carry out our own actions. And our actions have consequences. The world is what we make it. But I think sometime we can ask God to help us and He will. Sometime I think He looks down and say, 'Wow, look what those idiots are up to now. I guess I better help them along a little'.

I came up with myself. FAYZ. Spelled F-A-Y-Z. It stands for Fallout Alley Youth Zone. Fallout Alley, and nothing but kids. Howard laughed his mean laugh. Don't worry, Astrid, it's just a FAYZ. Get it? Just a FAYZ.

Sam, there comes a time when the world no longer needs heroes. And then the true hero knows to walk away.

In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king. In the darkness the man with a candle is an easy target.

It takes me a while to figure things out, doesn't it? Edilio grinned. Do me a favor. When you find Astrid, repeat that to her, word for word, the part about how it takes you a while. Then remember her exact reaction and tell me.

It's not about who's got powers, morons. It's about who's not afraid. And who's going to do what has to be done.

And then the turbines generate electricity that goes into the whole town. You mean they aren't powered by giant hamsters on wheels? I was misinformed.
