Daredevil “Episodes 1-13”
1) Matt: “I know your afraid, you can’t give into the fear, if you do men like this win.” (Nirat Anop)
2) Matt: “I’ve been preoccupied of lately with questions of morality. Of right and wrong, good and evil. Sometimes the delineation between the two is a sharp line, sometimes its a blur and often its like pornography, you just know when you see it. A man is a dead, I don’t mean to make light of that but these questions, these questions are vital ones because they tether us to each other, to humanity. Not everyone feels this way, not everyone sees the sharp line, only the blur. A man is dead and my client, John Healey took his life, this is not in dispute. It is a matter of record, a fact and facts have no moral judgement, they simply state what is, not what we think of them, not what we feel, they just are. What was in my clients heart when he took Mr. Prohaska’s life, whether he is a good man or something else entirely is irrelevant. These questions of good and evil as important as they are have no place in a court of law, only the facts. (Nirat Anop)

2) Catherine Avery: "When one suffers an injury to his manhood, recovery is always challenging - sometimes hopeless. You all hold onto so much of your fragile little self-esteem down there. It's possible you may never bounce back." (Tonya)
3) Callie: "I believe we get more than just one thing to love. And one day something will click - and you'll know you've found it. I have to believe that." (Tonya)

You can't dress the way you do and expect..."
Joan: "How do I dress?" Peggy: "Look, they didn't take me seriously, either." Joan: "I don't dress like you because I don't look like you and that's very true." Peggy: "You know what? You're filthy rich. You don't have to do anything you don't want to!" (Darth Locke)
