I mean whenever I would do something crappy on Earth there would be A tiny voice in the back of my head that would say “Eleanor, don’t grab that handful of olives from the salad bar. You didn’t pay for that.” or “Eleanor, don’t spit those olive pits on the floor of the grocery store. That’s not cool.” “Eleanor, that old man just slipped on your olive pits and he fell down. Don’t use the fact that everyone is distracted to go back and still more.“ Michael: “I get it.” Eleanor: “This ethics stuff is hard…and it’s confusing and it is such a buzzkill.

My clients wanting me to be the hero. I can’t be all those things. I can’t be strong all the time. Now say something.”
2. Annalise: “Claudia, you’re a mother. I don’t want to expose you to more risk.” Claudia: “That’s what being a mother’s about. You think I was selling for fun. You’ve given me hope, something I ain’t had in a long time. So get out of here. You’ve got work to do.”

3. Ander: “Is this really what you wanted? Become a martyr for a hateful cause? You’re my oldest friend. After all we’ve been through, why did you betray me?” Edain: “I tried to reach you, but you wouldn’t listen, wouldn’t hear the pleas of your own people.
