Gossip Girl Season 5 Episode 5: "The Fasting and the Furious" Quotes
The problem with hiding your sins is they always come back. On the day when some have atoned for past transgressions, a once-pure Prince can't help but commit a new one. XOXO —Gossip Girl
Gossip Girl
But the most difficult part can be admitting there was a sin to begin with. Most people find it too hard to face their crimes and find it easier to pretend nothing ever happened.
Gossip Girl
Everything you said to me was true. I don't need another notch on my belt. I need help. I knew it last week — hell, I knew it last year. I know it now. I'm ready to be serious if you'll have me.
Chuck
As challenging as atoning can be, the rewards make it worth the sacrifice.

Dan: Without you inspiring me from the beginning I wouldn't have been able to write anything, so I owe you one. And despite the events of the day, you know, I trust you. I do have one condition: I want to write the screenplay.
Serena: When you told me you were pregnant I said that I would be there for you, no matter what, and I haven't been. And I'm sorry.
Blair: Well you had a work crisis.
Serena: Yeah, but the truth is I was jealous.
Blair: Well if it makes you feel better marrying a prince isn't what fairytales would lead you to believe.
Serena: No, that's not what I was jealous about. You're the star of Dan's book.
Blair: Well as I said, it's pure fiction.
Lily: Well I bet you never thought you'd hear such good parenting advice from Blair Waldorf.
Rufus: It's time to let my anger go and return Dan's calls. I mean if he didn't piss me off it would just mean he wasn't growing up.
Lily: That is the Rufus Humphrey that I love.
Eleanor: I have to confess that I may have been the one to put the idea of a contract in Beatrice's head. I was just bragging about you and it didn't matter where you lived. No one can keep you from being your own person. And that is part of why you will be a wonderful mother.
Blair: Thank you for saying that. I know this isn't what you wanted for me. At least not yet.
Eleanor: These things happen when they happen. That's the first lesson of being a parent. Children don't do what you want them to do all the time, when you want them to do it. But you love them anyway.
Charlie: And thanks again for helping me do nothing.
Nate: Well it was fun breaking into the safe.
That's the thing about writing what you know. Soon everybody else knows it too.
Gossip Girl
Serena: I finally finished the book.
Dan: I told you, it's not you. Yes, there are parts of you. And Daisy Buchanan. And Amy March. And Gwyneth Paltrow. Five different roles she's played. But it's a novel. It's inspired by a lot of things. It isn't speaking to some deeper truth.
Serena: Are you sure? Because I know this may sound crazy or selfish or... like I'm living in the past or something. But you were the love of my life, Dan. I don't know, I just thought I was yours too.
Serena: I followed Jane all the way done to her town car apologizing, and even then I don't think it was enough. Thank you for waiting.
Dan: I didn't want to. You scared away everyone, and now no one wants the book.
Serena: Dan—
Dan: Your apology this morning was just strategic, wasn't it?
Serena: Yeah. Pretty much.
