Quotes 

• Noah Bennet : Primatech had a system - one of us, one of them.

  Danko : Working alongside people with abilities?

  Noah Bennet : It helps to even the odds.

  Danko : Yes, I read your files. I think we'd be better served with one of us, and one of us.

  Noah Bennet : I'm sorry?

  Danko : Or ten of us - twelve of us, and none of them.

• Noah Bennet : This job is about understanding their humanity, not their ability. But you have to be human to do that.

• Danko : [about Claire]  She is the special one with the soft spot in the senator's soft heart.

  Noah Bennet : That's right.

  Danko : You're a dime a dozen. And eleven of the twelve are unreliable.

• Noah Bennet : You know you're going to be seen as a villain? Locking people away?

  Nathan Petrelli : I'll play whatever role I need to.

  Noah Bennet : Claire will never look at you the same way again.

  Nathan Petrelli : Claire never needs to know a thing.

  Noah Bennet : But she will - they all will, and they will blame you. They won't understand.

  Nathan Petrelli : I have gone so far off the rails with this, so far around the bend. I nearly killed my own brother. And I just want to have a chance to make things right.

• Noah Bennet : I joined the Company for a reason; and that reason doesn't disappear just because your mother decides to turn off the lights.

  Nathan Petrelli : I thought you'd enjoy the extra-time with your family.

  Noah Bennet : There's only so many crossword puzzles I can do.

• Danko : By your own admission, your way didn't exactly work. Prisoners escaping, loyalty issues - it was a mess.

  Noah Bennet : A mess? For twenty years I was successful in making sure that people like you never knew people like them even existed.

  Danko : You don't presume to know anything about me.

• Noah Bennet : I've read your files too, Mr. Danko. I've known men like you.

  Danko : Is that right?

  Noah Bennet : Sure. Simple, unconnected, take your work home with you, you're never off the job - you think that makes you perfect.

  Danko : Not perfect. Just better than you.

• Danko : All that time you worked at your Company, danced the fine line between Company man, family man... I'm not much for dancing.

  Noah Bennet : You're oversimplifying it.

  Danko : I think you're overcomplicating it - hunting them while harboring them... To win this war for good, it takes focus. And yours is just a little split right now.

• Angela Petrelli : There's no halfway anymore. You're gonna have to play the role, make tough choices to prove your loyalty to them, to their cause.

  Noah Bennet : You know me - I've always been comfortable with morally gray.
