"Why do you try to escape what you fear, Noah? You will be punished for resisting my message. You will bring another creature on the boat. You won't notice it at first, just wait Noah. Wait until you start to feel something. A change happening in your mind. You won't even realize that it had taken form until you see it. When you see it, there is no return. It will give you a message. It will be your last message."

—Mark Heathcliff's last documented words, mandelapolice.com
"You know what they say!"
—Mervin Marshall's character catchphrase, a subtle reference to Saul Goodman's catchphrase.
"Afraid of your own reflection...Lieutenant? Dead or alive, you're no use to these people. A man without a purpose, in a world that doesn't need him. A scared boy with a gun. Sound familiar?"

O'Brien...?: Stay... Still...

Dave: You're not real... You're not gonna accomplish anything.
