When I first met Mr. Gates and he asked me my name, I feared the man I was about to create.

It was as if the sea had conjured that man out of nothing, and then taken him back for some unknowable purpose. When I first met Mr. Gates and he asked me my name, I feared the man I was about to create. I feared that someone, born of such dark things, would conceal me were I not careful. And I was determined to wear him only for a while, and then dispose of him when his purpose was complete. And I thought of that story.

Black Sails Season 2 Episode 9 Quotes

I can not stand before you and claim to be without sin. When we received that letter from you informing us of Thomas' death, the damage wrought by Alfred Hamilton was too much for us to bear. We were angry, and we allowed that anger to drive us to a dark deed. But I ask you not to judge me by that one deed. Judge me by the ends that I have come here in service of. The redemption of Nassau, in accordance with the principles that you, and I, and she, and Thomas Hamilton committed ourselves to all those years ago.

Max: She was something else entirely.
