Peter: I'm not going to let you throw away this marriage because you have some idealized notion of a marriage that you're not even sure cared about you!
Alicia: You're a bastard!
Peter: And you're a selfish bitch! But you know what? We're all that we have.
Alicia: No. Not anymore. Don't worry, I'm not going to divorce you. You're too valuable to me professionally, just like I am to you. But we're not going to see each other anymore.

Peter: Oh my God. How many times do I have to tell you when I cheated it didn't mean anything?!
Alicia: Well, then. That was a waste. Because when I cheated, it did!

Peter: Alicia, the way you're handling this Will thing...
Alicia: I'm doing my best.
Peter: Oh well, if this your best then I think we need to talk.

Finn: Will really mattered to you.
Alicia: Yes.

David Lee: You're no Will Gardner. You'll only hurt yourself trying to be.
Diane: Well then fasten your seat belts. We're in for a lot of hurt.

Alicia: Oh dear God. Would everyone just stop thinking I'm falling apart at the frickin' seams?
Peter: Everyone? When did I become everyone?

David Lee: Diane, I have some advice for you. When in mourning, don't make big decisions. At least for a year.
Diane: Really?! Aggression, move David Lee out of his current office and into that office -- back there.
David: You can't do that.
Diane: Yes I can. I'm on the infrastructure committee. Too bad you're not. Is that a big enough decision for you?

David, I have some advice for you. Whenever you're tempted to bring up Will's death and credit my behavior to it, resist.

Diane

I'm so alone there. Partners look at me like I'm a gazelle on the savanna.

Diane

Alicia: To Will.
Diane: To Will. A real man. He shall be missed.

Diane: We were like the two mistresses at the Irish funeral.
Alicia: Yep.
Diane: I'm sorry, I meant that metaphorically.
Alicia: I know.

Alicia: If I die before you, please don't let them read "Wind Beneath my Wings" at my funeral.
Diane: Who knew it had so many verses?
