Vartan: Hm... Agrivar. I seem to remember some old stories about a spellcaster in the north named Agrivar. Oster… Osprey. Ostus! He was supposed to have been fooling around with other dimensions. Eaten by a demon. Just as well. Humans dabbling in such matters...
Priam Agrivar: Ostus Agrivar was my father.
Vartan: Umm...
Priam: For your information, he was disintegrated before my eyes by an evil wizard from another dimension. An act that I have only recently avenged.
Vartan: I'm... I'm sorry.
Priam: As am I.

"If you say so. I was only managing a C-minus average in Algebra because my teacher was bumping my grade up to keep me on the basketball team for most of high school," I admitted. "Of course, then I got infested and suddenly I was getting all A's, but I still wasn't exactly learning anything."
Collette laughed. "What, and your parents were never even a little suspicious?"
I froze, I guess. Stopped blinking. Stopped making the necessary effort to form facial expressions and make eye contact.
I know because Collette's eyes went wide, her skin paling.
"Shit, shit, I put my foot in that one, didn't I? Fuck," she was muttering to herself.

The Tenth Doctor: And d'you know how I know you're a fake? Because you're such a bad copy. It's not just the smell. Or the unconvincing hair, or the atrocious teeth, or the eyes — just a bit too close together. Or the breath that could stun a horse! It's because my Elizabeth — the real Elizabeth — would never be stupid enough to reveal her own plan! Honestly, why would you do that?
Elizabeth: Because it's not my plan. And I am the real Elizabeth.
The Tenth Doctor: ...okay. So. Backtracking a moment just to lend some context to my earlier remarks...

P.S. I'm drinking, to drown the failure
'cause I've fucked up again like you would not believe!
Guilt like an anchor, pulling me under
My foot's so far inside my mouth it's hard to breathe!

Simmons: (referring to Grey's rescue of Alex and Rick) C'mon, I saw that one of the officers was female, and a cute one at that—I know you, Grey.
Grey: Her?! Please, she's way too uptight. I don't have time for girls like that.
Simmons: What, you think you even stand a chance?
Grey: Give me a break. She may have an attitude, but if I wanted her, I could have her by the end of the night.

"But wait, I thought Madonna thinks that she’s the black Madonna, which is why she thinks it’s cool to throw around “#disnigga”...Never mind that the only button Madge has been pushing lately is the one marked “eye roll inducer,” she’s kind of right about Kanye and her being cut from the same cloth. I mean, both of them live in an out-of-touch fart bubble of delusion and their heads are currently taking up permanent residency up their asses. So yeah, they’re kind of the same. But Kanye isn’t going to like being called the black Madonna. To Kanye, Kanye isn’t the black Madonna. Madonna is the white Kanye, just like Jesus is the Jewish Kanye and the Sun is the star Kanye and the moon is the satellite Kanye and God is the cloud Kanye!!"
