I understand that you're hurting and I what it's like to want someone but not be able be with them. How you wish things could be different, but they can't. I can't be with you; I can't be with anyone. I have to be alone.

The Arrow

Roy: I'm going to miss this. I feel like I was just starting to get good at it.
Oliver: You are getting good at it.
Roy: That guy? He said I was just another weapon in your arsenal.
Oliver: Well maybe that's what we should call you, then. Arsenal.

Oliver: When I said I wouldn't train you, I was trying to protect you. But a homicidal former vigilante apprentice was not what I had in mind.
Laurel: I know you're trying to protect me, Ollie, but I'm not helpless.
Oliver: I've never seen you that way. But. Laurel, I'm always gonna watch out for you. And it's not because I think you're helpless, it's because I care about you.

Ted, your mistake wasn't cutting him loose. It was losing faith in him.

The Arrow

Roy: Don't abandon me.
Oliver: Never.

If Roy killed Sara, then we'll deal with it.

Oliver: You're playing a very dangerous game, Laurel.
Laurel: I can handle it.
Oliver: No you can't, because you haven't realized that it's not actually a game.

The Arrow: You cannot be serious.
Laurel: I am not on your team. I don't work for you.
The Arrow: Exactly. You're untrained.
Laurel: Oh. And whose fault is that?

The Arrow: We need another minute.
Ted: How do you two know each other?
Laurel: We used to date.

The Arrow: Who else knows about the locker?
Ted: No one. This is where I kept my supplies, a safe place separate from my day job. As I'm sure you got one just like it.
The Arrow: Mine's bigger.

The Arrow: I've never heard of another vigilante in Starling.
Ted: It was six years ago. I wasn't news; I stuck to the Glades.
The Arrow: And these are supposed to convince me? Masks are also useful for serial killers.
Ted: Says the guy currently wearing one.

The Arrow: That's the second time I've found you with a body.
Ted: I've never killed anybody. I'm being set up.
The Arrow: And why should I believe you?
Ted: Because I used to be a vigilante. I used to be you.
