The painful truth is vampires are the antithesis of unity.

Klaus

Klaus: Not a fan of cerulean blue?
Elijah: Not a fan of your continued indifference.

Marcel: I think you're here 'cause you don't want to leave your home. I sure as Hell don't want to leave mine. A battle is brewing, T. While everyone's busy choosing sides, I'm going to find a way to take back our city. So, you with me?
Thierry: You were always great with words, Marcel. But it's going to take more than a pretty speech this time.

Marcel: I want you and all the guys who walked out on Klaus to join me.
Thierry: Rounding up an army?
Marcel: Can't take back the city without one.

Davina, what are you doing out here? I would have met you anywhere you wanted. I mean, not anywhere Klaus or Marcel might be, which could be pretty much anywhere, but...

Josh

[to Cami] Well, New Orleans breeds nothing if not strange bedfellows.

Klaus

[to Klaus] I saw the light from the courtyard and took a chance that--you weren't with a half-naked psychowitch. Seems I gambled and lost.

Cami

There is not gonna be a peace if the werewolves are excluded. They want a seat at the table, and if they don't get one, I can guarantee that you'll all regret it.

Hayley

Elijah: We must work together, Niklaus. Let's make the city whole again.
Klaus: Perhaps it is too broken to mend.

[to Genevieve] I trust you can find your clothing and the door.

Elijah

They say the passage of time will heal all wounds, but the greater the loss, the deeper the cut and the more difficult the process to become whole again. The pain may fade, but scars serve as a reminder of our suffering and make the bearer all the more resolved never to be wounded again. So as time moves along we get lost in distractions, act out in frustration, react with aggression, give in to anger, and all the while we plot and plan as we wait to grow stronger, and before we know it, the time passes. We are healed. Ready to begin anew.

Klaus

Goodbye, Marcel Gerard. Do try to stay alive.

The Originals Season 1 Quotes

I may be old, Elijah, but I'm hardly senile.

Rebekah

Over the course of my long life, I have come to believe that we are bound forever to those with whom we share blood. And while we may not choose our family, that bond can be our greatest strength, or our deepest regret. This unfortunate truth has haunted me for as long as I can recall.

Elijah
