Arzt: You know what? I'm going back.
Jack: Hey. I thought you wanted to help.
Arzt: Yeah, I wanted to help, but that was before Montand lost his frickin' arm.

Ben: (about the heartrate monitor) If and when it beeps, you're gonna wanna relax yourself. Do some deep breathing. Some yoga.

Ben: (to the bunny) Hippity-hop, let's move it.

Ben: Do you believe in God?
Jack: Do you?
Ben: Two days after I found out that I had a fatal tumor on my spine, a spinal surgeon fell out of the sky. If that's not proof of God I don't know what is.

Ben: God, I hate needles.

Ben: Good morning. Let's go for a walk.

Ben: [referring to the handcuffs on the table] Sorry, I'm going to have to ask you to put those on, Kate.
Kate: And if I don't?
Ben: Then you don't get any coffee.

Ben: [Sees that Juliet holding the book, Carrie] So I guess I'm out of the book club.

Ben: A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. It don't make no difference who the guy is, as long as he's with ya. I tell ya, I tell ya a guy gets too lonely and he gets sick.
Sawyer: What the hell are you talking about?
Ben: It's from Of Mice and Men. Don't you read?

Ben: Alex... this is your mother.

Ben: Hello, Hugo.
Hurley: Ahh! [Throws Hot Pocket at him, misses and it hits wall] Get away from me. Get away!
Ben: Hugo, I know you're in trouble. And I can assure you, I've taken care of everything. I have a car waiting for us out back. The police didn't see me come in. I can get you out of here.
Hurley: No way, dude. Sayid warned me about you.
Ben: I'm taking you to Sayid. He's with Jack. That's why I'm here, Hugo. Jack called me. How else would I know that they're together?
Hurley: No. You're playing one of your mind games. They'd never trust you.
Ben: In their defense, I'm not an easy person to trust. But they came around when they realized that we all want the same thing.
Hurley: And what's that?
Ben: To go back to the island. Come with us, Hugo. And this'll be over. You can stop hiding. You can stop worrying about the stories and the deceptions. If you come with me, you won't ever have to lie again. Please... Let me help you.
Hurley: Never, dude.
[Hurley turns and runs]

Ben: Hello, Jack. [Ben startles Jack from behind him in the funeral home, while looking a "Jeremy Bentham's" body] Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you. Did he tell you that I was off the island?
Jack: Yes, he did.
Ben: When did you speak to him?
Jack: About a month ago.
Ben: And Kate?
Jack: Yeah. Yeah, he came to see her, too.
Ben: And what did he say to you?
Jack: He told me... that after I left the island, some very bad things happened. And he told me that it was my fault for leaving. And he said that I had to come back.
Ben: Yes, I heard that you've been flying on passenger planes... hoping that you'd crash. That's dark, Jack, very dark.
Jack: Why are you here?
Ben: I'm here to tell you that the island won't let you come alone. All of you have to go back.
Jack: Are you... Sayid--I don't even know where Sayid is. Hurley... is insane. Sun blames me for... and then Kate... she won't even talk to me anymore.
Ben: Perhaps I can help you with that. This is the way it has to be, Jack. It's the only way. You have to do it together, all of you.
Jack: How?
Ben: I have a few ideas. [Jack turns to leave] Jack... I said, all of you. We're gonna have to bring him, too.
[Both Jack and Ben look back down at the body, who is revealed to be John Locke] Season Five

Ben: I know you think you need to do this John, but if you blow up my submarine, I'll have a big problem with my people.
Locke: Is that supposed to be an incentive not to blow it up?
Ben: I was born on this island; not many of my people can say that. Most of them were recruited and brought here, and as much as they love this place, as much as they would do anything to defend it, they need to know that they can leave if they want to. The sub maintains that illusion.
Locke: So you're lying to them?
Ben: No... they're here because they want to be here. Some of them are just not ready to make a full commitment yet. But you John, you've already made that commitment. And now you have a choice, because if you stop and think, I can show you things. things I know that you want to see very badly. Let me put it so you'll understand: picture a box. You know something about boxes, don't you John? What if I told you that somewhere on this island there is a very large box and whatever you imagined, whatever you wanted to be in it, when you open that box, there it would be. What would you say about that John?
Locke: I'd say that I hope that box is big enough for you to imagine up a new submarine.
Ben: Why are you so angry John?
Locke: Because you're cheating. You communicate with the outside world whenever you want to, you come and go as you please, you use electricity and running water and guns. You're a hypocrite. You don't deserve to be on this island. If you had any idea what this place was you wouldn't be putting chicken in your refrigerator.
Ben: You have been on this island for 80 days, John. I have been here my entire life. So what makes you think you know this island better than I do?
Locke: Because you're in the wheelchair, and I'm not.

Ben: I think Desmond's gonna be okay.
Hurley:...Jack's gone.[Breaks down in tears]
Ben: He did his job, Hugo.
Hurley: But it's my job now! What the hell am I gonna do?
Ben: I think you'll do what you do best: Take care of people. And you can start by helping Desmond go home.
Hurley: How? People can't leave the Island.
Ben: That was how Jacob ran things. Maybe there's another way, a better way.
Hurley: Can you help me?
Ben: I'm sorry?
Hurley: I could sorta use someone with, like, experience. For a little while. So...will you help me, Ben?
Ben:...I would be honored.
Hurley: Cool...

Ben: Jack, I know you think you're saving your people, but you need to stop this.. It's a mistake.
Jack: Listening to you was the mistake.
Ben: This will be your last chance Jack. I'm telling you, making that call is the beginning of the end.
