Why do we dream? Perhaps we would be better off not looking at all. Not delving. Not yearning. But that's not human nature. Not the human heart. That is not why we are here.

Touch our hearts. And share the pain of trying.

Monica: I don't know. Maybe God's punishing me.
Camille: Now why would he do that?
Monica: For being selfish. I pray for it every Sunday in church, for God to find me a way out of here. Everybody else is praying for the community, to put things back together, to give them strength. Not me. I'm just praying for a way out.

Mr. Bennet: I'm not who you think I am, I'm just a paper salesman.

Mr. Bennet: It means that an old friend isn't quite as dead as we thought he was.

Mr. Bennet: People are fragile. Like teacups.

Nathan: (giving a speech to a crowd of reporters in Texas) Good afternoon. Most of you have no idea who I am. My name is Nathan Petrelli and I was elected to Congress in the state of New York. It seems like a long time ago. I lost my position. I lost my brother. I lost my family. I'm sad to say that I lost my way. But while I was gone, I've had the chance to see the world through newly-humbled eyes. Witnessed amazing things, seen ordinary people among us trying their best each day to be heroes. These ordinary people... like you, like me, are capable of extraordinary things. You have no idea... how extraordinary. But there are other people; organizations who don't want you to know the truth. I myself kept secrets. But last year, something incredible happened to me... and it changed my life. At first, I was afraid. But I'm... I'm not afraid anymore. I'm here to tell you the truth.

Peter: My brother can't walk through walls. Who are you?
Sylar: (morphs to Sylar's form.) An old friend. The guy they blamed for blowing up New York, but we know the real story, don't we Pete?
Peter: You're gonna pay for what you did to Nathan. What you did in his name!
Sylar: What I did? (activates his ice ability) When I killed Nathan he'd already turned against his own kind.
Peter: Liar! (Peter activates his fire ability and the two charge at eachother)
