The Hood: You have failed this city. And you know why.
Oliver: Because I got away from you.
The Hood: You were never supposed to have partners. There was never supposed to be a John Diggle. A Felicity Smoak. A Team Arrow. There never was supposed to be a Green Arrow! There was only the mission!
Oliver: I lost sight of that.
The Hood: You lost your city! And now, you know what you have to do to get it... back.

Oliver: On the bight side, if I get impeached, you get promoted.
Quentin: I'm not much of a politician, Oliver.
Oliver: With Diaz running the city, it's not really politics, is it?

Oliver: John. What do you need?
Diggle: Well, Felicity said she need to update the code on my chip. She also said that you would be at City Hall.
Felicity: Well, I said he might be. I didn't say he would be. And yeah, I "Parent Trapped" you, but it was a little naïve of you to think I wouldn't, considering how well you know me. You know?

Look, what I'm trying to say is I know what it's like to do a bad thing for a good reason.

Lance

Hey, John, you ever think about dropping the ARG and joining us?

Curtis

Diaz: Like I said, life isn't fair.
Oliver: You. You have failed this city, and I'm going to take it back.

Handcuffs would've been fine.

Oliver

I just thought I could count on you to be the man that I knew. That man was my friend.

Oliver

Ms. Loring: At the end of this trial, I'm going to ask you what is most likely: that our city's government is compromised or that we elected a superhero.

Rene: He was here. Are you just gonna let him walk?
Felicity: We're not just letting him walk.

You know, if it's any consolation, my team IS going to extract me before I ever make it to prison, so...

Tommy

It means I might be going to prison, OK? If that happens, Felicity has assured me that she is going to ensure that you grow into the man that I know you can be.

Oliver

Arrow Quotes

I thought you took that book off your father's dead body. How could he have been so chatty?

Diggle

She was my sister. I couldn't be angry because she was dead. I couldn't grieve because I was so angry, that's what happens when your sister dies while screwing your boyfriend.

Laurel
