Calvin: If I would have told you on our first day what happened that night when I was a rookie and that it's something that I have regretted every day since, would we have still had our time together?
Nova: No.
Calvin: Then I don't regret keeping it because I'm grateful for the love you shared with me and the time that I got.
Calvin: My world stops when I see you. Please don’t give up.
Nova: Give up? It’s already done. We can’t make it. We tried, and we tried, and then we tried some more.

Nova: Yes, I miss you. Yes, I think of you now and then, of what we had. But I had to face the facts; that we loved each other for a time, that we tried to turn our love into an actual life together more than once. More than twice. But that we just aren’t meant to be that for each other, and that’s okay. I’ve made peace with it.
Calvin: I have this recurring dream of you and I sitting on an old porch swing, old and gray and still in love. I don’t think I can make peace with that. I don’t know how to. The story keeps repeating in my head.
Micah: My Mom is just never going to forgive me.

We come from a long line of strong, powerful women. We got this.

You're not the first person to hit a rough patch. But there's a difference between passion and purpose and posturing and pretending. You're too good to be the latter. And when I saw what you did with that horrible, that hurtful NFT and with those people tonight, that is not you. That is not your spirit. That is not from your heart.
Lorna
I would never have appreciated a man like Hollywood when I was young and dumb.
Violet
I prefer to call our ancestors enslaved people instead of slaves. The word slaves continues to strip them of their humanity. They were people, not property. Not animals.
Nova
We've worked really hard to get to where we're at, and where we're at is shaky at best. It's already been so hard. I can't risk one more thing.
Darla
Art is meant to start a conversation. You can't please everybody, and if you do, you're probably not saying much.
Zane
Sometimes we get so caught up striving for our dreams that we forget we're living inside of them.
