Hill: What does S.H.I.E.L.D. stand for Agent Ward?
Ward: Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.
Hill: And what does that mean to you?
Ward: That someone really wanted our initials to spell SHIELD.

I'm doing what we always do. We're going to fix this. Together.

Fitz

Skye: Sweet ride.
Coulson: I earned a little good will from Direct Fury when I got hit right before the battle of New York.
Skye: You took a bullet?
Coulson: "ish".

The name they gave me at the orphanage was Mary Sue Poots

Skye

Simmons is probably smarter, technically. But that’s because she like homework more than life itself.

Fitz

Ward: I know Director Fury felt he owes you after you scarified yourself.
Coulson: And my card collection.

We still need to iron out the kinks, but Ward you can speak 6 languages, Simmons you have 2 PHD's in fields I cannot pronounce, and Fitz you ARE a rocket scientist, so work it out.

Coulson

Coulson [to the tour group]

Coulson: Go ahead, say it.
May: I don't do petty.
Coulson: But you called it. I trusted my gut even though you said she was a risk.
May: When someone breaks into my house, I usually don't invite them to stay. But that's me.
Coulson: That's me too. Then that alien staff when through my heart.
May: Sure it didn't go through the brain?
Coulson: You really don't do comforting either do you?

If I come out, will you shoot me? 'Cause then I won't come out.

Coulson

As far as I'm concerned, you're just another redshirt, like so many others who tried to stop me from saving the world. So, cool original story, bro. But this means nothing to me.

Coulson [to Ivanov]
