Clark: What made you come to your senses?
Oliver: Actually, you did. This whole time, I just wanted to be like Clark Kent, you know? I wanted to... I wanted to have the ability to bring justice to the world without having to worry about getting killed in the process.

Chloe: [to Clark] Look, I understand that you feel like all these psychopathic space invaders are your fault, but you can't keep it all inside. You feel the need to carry the world on your shoulders, and that's noble. But there are other people out there who want to help you fight the good fight, and you need to let them in. Because sometimes even heroes need to be saved.

Chloe: Come on, Clark, you put a psycho killer away and you reunited a mother with her son. I mean, there are only so many hours in the day.

Lois: I don't get it. Of all the photographers in Metropolis, how is it that you end up with the first shots of our merry archer?
Jimmy: My connections.
Lois: No. Really.
Jimmy: Uh, well, the guy doesn't get out of the Suicide Slums much, so I just hung out there for a few weeks... in my car with my pepper spray and the doors locked.
Lois: This is it? A bunch of arms and legs? Nice work, hotshot. I mean, you didn't even manage to catch one shot of his face. All these tell me about Green Arrow is that he needs a band-aid.

Clark: People keep secrets for a reason.
Lois: I don't know. If you ask me, I think a secret is just a big loophole in the whole "thou shall not lie" clause.
Clark: There's just no gray area with you, is there?
Lois: Not when someone I thought I knew better than anyone has been keeping the biggest secret of all.
Clark: What are you talking about?
Lois: What would you do if one day you realized someone close to you had a serious hero complex?
Clark: Hero complex?
Lois: Hiding his true identity from everyone he supposedly cares about? You can't tell me you wouldn't find something wrong with that.
Clark: Who exactly are we talking about?

Chloe: Clark, before you unload your anger on me, can I just say that I think it is incredibly unfair that everyone trusts me to keep their secrets, and then they turn around and they throw me attitude for keeping someone else's secret! Look, I'm sorry that I had to take a two-second breather from hiding the fact that you are an alien from another planet to protect someone else for a change! God! [Clark hugs her] You had that coming, you know?
Clark: For the record... I prefer "intergalactic traveler" over "alien from another planet."

Chloe: The craziest part is he chucked a guy across an alley, right? [Lois: Oh yeah] And then supersped away. I mean, WHO does that?
Clark: Hmm. [pause] It's a good thing when Oliver showed up when he did. Then you know for sure.
Chloe: Oh, she knew before he showed up.
Clark: You did?
Chloe: Ask her how.
Clark: How?
Lois: I kissed him.
Chloe: Isn't that romantic? [Clark sighs and nods] Oh, I'm sorry Lois. Finish the story. [Clark tries to interrupt] This is the best part.
Lois: Hmmm. Well, he was holding me in his arms, and - Ollie's a good kisser, don't get me wrong - but that Green Arrow? He could teach Ollie a thing or two.

A.C.: Maybe he's starting to rust.
Clark: A.C., how'd you fall into all this?
A.C.: I got into a little trouble sinking a whaler off the coast of Japan.
Victor: A little trouble? That's what you're gonna go with? Ollie had to save your scaly butt from getting filleted.

Oliver: Ever since my parents died, I've jumped around from city to city, from continent to continent and in all those years, not once have I regretted leaving anyone. But then I met you.
Lois: Then stay.

Lois: Don't expect me to be waiting around for that when you get back.
Oliver: I'm not coming back, Lois. At least not any time soon. I'm sorry. I never wanted to hurt you.

Dr. Hudson: You suffer from paranoid schizophrenia. You have for a number of years... after the death of your birth parents in the Smallville meteor shower.
Clark: See, it's not true. My birth parents were out of town for the meteor shower.
Dr. Hudson: You were placed in the wonderful adoptive home of the Kents. But like many children, you invented a make-believe world to help you deal with the trauma you endured.
