Elizabeth Webber Lansing: Look, Courtney, I understand you're upset, but, Ric had nothing to do with what just happened to your brother and Carly, OK?

Edward Quartermaine: Dillon?
Dillon Quartermaine: Why am I here?
Edward Quartermaine: So that I can apologize to you.
Dillon Quartermaine: For what?
Edward Quartermaine: For not spending enough time with you during your mother's recent absence.
Dillon Quartermaine: My Mom's been back for six months.
Edward Quartermaine: Dillon, what you need to understand, son, is that Lila and I practically raised Ned, and I thought that with your mother as your only role model that you were going to turn out to be a viper, like she is, but I - I was mistaken, you have potential.
Dillon Quartermaine: OK, now you're freaking me out.
Edward Quartermaine: No, no.
Dillon Quartermaine: Yeah.
Edward Quartermaine: You stand for what you believe. You're young. You got a lot to learn. But you do. You stand for what you believe and you have a strength of convictions, and you have that in spades.
Dillon Quartermaine: Yeah, and I thought you had no use for me.
Edward Quartermaine: Well, you thought wrong you give me a few years, and you could be C. E. O. of E. L. Q. huh?
Dillon Quartermaine: E. L. Q. ?
Edward Quartermaine: Well, sure. It's your legacy. Providing you keep your mother away form the helm. You see, I can revise my will so that you could get the lion's share of my estate, hmm?

Lois Cerullo-Ashton: I'm not defending Sonny.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Lois, Don't.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Just hear me out.
Lorenzo Alcazar: You're going to tell me how Sonny loss his temper, that he didn't mean it, he's really a good guy, and I know you believe that because you're generous enough to believe the same thing about me. You know what? You may be right. There may be some thin veneer of decency in both of us. But Sonny will kill to get his way and I will kill to survive. So at the end of the day, one of us is going to be eliminated.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: My daughter would kill me for being here. She's right. You're dangerous. And I could end up getting killed in the crossfire.
Lorenzo Alcazar: That's true.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: At the very least, I'll probably end up with a broken heart. But, I can't seem to stop myself. Because I want something with you.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Look, if you're frightened, you should run. You should listen to your instincts.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: What was I thinking? Showing up at your door, trying to reach out to you, one human being to another in your time of grief?
Lorenzo Alcazar: You came here because you feel guilty for asking me to sign over the rights to my dead niece's poem before the dirt is even fresh on her grave.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: You really are the heartless bastard that everybody warned me about!
Lorenzo Alcazar: And all those warnings just made you want to fly closer to the flame. Don't blame me if you got burned.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Why are you doing this? I wanted you, you wanted me back.
Lorenzo Alcazar: And now I've had you. Let's just say we satisfied our curiosity and just leave it at that, all right?
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Gladly.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Yeah, I know your type, Mr. Lorenzo Alcazar. Beautiful manners, not hard to look at. There is something very fundamentally decent about you that marches hand in hand with something very fundamentally dangerous. Which is what makes gangsters bad boyfriends and even worse business partners.
Lorenzo Alcazar: I'm not a gangster.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Because even with the best of intentions, which I'm sure yours are, their lives depend on secrecy and lies. They're used to getting whatever they want at any cost. They are basically spoiled, overgrown 6-year-olds running around with guns. And what sensible woman would want any part of that?
Lorenzo Alcazar: What if I told this sensible woman that I have a master's from oxford?
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Well, then I would say congratulation on your intellectual pursuits. But that a well-read gangster is still a gangster. And I have learned something in my life.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Mm-hmm.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Yeah - I don't accept money from shady characters.
Lorenzo Alcazar: You know, I don't think I've ever been called a shady character before.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Well, then, you're long overdue - no offense.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: You scare me, Lorenzo. And not in the violent sense. I'm scared of you - your heart, the look in your eyes, and the way I'm starting to feel.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Look, if I was a good person, I would ask you to leave. I'd freeze you out. You'd be a lot safer that way. And I'm sure, happier in the end. But I think it's obvious by now I'm not a very good person.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: Alexis Davis got away with Luis murder. Mary Bishop is not going to do the same with his daughter's. One way or the other, every person responsible for her death is going to pay.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: Carly is irrelevant.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Yeah, and I'm the Queen of England.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: Hey, glad you called. Your timing was perfect. My plane just touched down. I had to go to South America on business. This isn't social, is it? What happened?
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: You need to brace yourself, Lorenzo.
Lorenzo Alcazar: OK.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: This isn't going to be easy to say, so I'll just say it. Your niece is dead.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Sage is dead?
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Lorenzo, I am so sorry.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Tell me what happened.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Brooke Lynn called me. When that phone rang in the middle of the night, I knew it couldn't be good. Sage was over at the Quartermaine house with Brookie and Dillon and Georgie and their friend Trent, too. They were trapped there because some truck crashed and blocked the main gate. Some maniac got in the house and started killing people. First Sage, then Trent, rest their souls. Apparently, this woman is a total nut job.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Woman?
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Someone named Mary Bishop.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: I owe you a profound apology.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Gee, I wonder why. Maybe because you used me for sex and then pitched me out into the night like yesterday's garbage?
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: Look, I know you and Sonny are old friends, but this is a long way from Bensonhurst, and he's grown up to be a killer.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: And what are you?
Lorenzo Alcazar: The same, as I've tried to warn you. Sonny and I can be alike. I guess.
Lois Cerullo-Ashton: Well, that much you got right. Yeah, you both waste your talent and gifts on a brutal, ugly profession that doesn't get you anything but money and an early death.
Lorenzo Alcazar: You'd think it would work out that way, wouldn't you? But it's the people around me who keep dying - something else I happen to have in common with Sonny - although he still has some family left.
TV Show: General Hospital
Lorenzo Alcazar: So do you hate me now?
Carly Corinthos: You know, it'd be a lot easier if I did. But even now, after everything, no. Look, Lorenzo, honestly, I wish you well. I just - why don't you go somewhere else and just start over, start fresh?
Lorenzo Alcazar: Carly, if I left, now, I'd be running, and I refuse.
Carly Corinthos: But there's nothing left for you here.
Lorenzo Alcazar: Well, having nothing left can be very liberating. You can pretty much take any risk you want when you have nothing left to lose. But I don't expect you to understand you've got a lot at stake - Your children, your husband, even a father now.

Ned Ashton: Alan, how is he?
Dr. Alan Quartermaine: We almost lost him in the ambulance.
Tracy Quartermaine: He's not going to die.
Dr. Alan Quartermaine: You'd like nothing better, would you?
Tracy Quartermaine: What a terrible thing to say.
Dr. Alan Quartermaine: Why? You almost let him die at your feet before, didn't you?
Tracy Quartermaine: Oh, Alan, please.
Ned Ashton: Let's not talk about this right now.
Dr. Alan Quartermaine: Except this time he has medicine, doesn't he?
Tracy Quartermaine: That is uncalled for.

Georgie Jones: Dillon, what did the killer look like?
Dillon Quartermaine: I told you already. He had a white - a white mask, black clothes.
Georgie Jones: Really - really terrifying?
Dillon Quartermaine: I was so scared, I could barely move.
Georgie Jones: That's probably how Sage felt right before she died. Because I locked her in the freezer!
TV Show: General Hospital
Georgie Jones: I've been thinking about Sage. She thought she had forever. Do you know what I mean? And she didn't. And if she knew this was her last year on earth, would she have lived it differently?
Dillon Quartermaine: Probably.
Georgie Jones: OK, I know the chances are not very good that I'm - are good that I'm not going to die in a year, but if I did, would it matter that I got straight A's? No. I think what matter is who you love and how you show it.
TV Show: General Hospital
Georgie Jones: Maxie, you did everything you could for Zander.
Maxie Jones: No, I did everything wrong. I left him in a room where he burned to death.
Georgie Jones: Maxie, that was not your fault.
Maxie Jones: No, Zander - Zander would still be alive if I'd only told Mac where he was, If I had been honest. Lies are not the easy way out. They get people killed.
