Arthur Mitchell:
[after being captured by Dexter] Look at you. I never took pride in what I did.

Dexter Morgan:
No, you're a very special kind of monster. You destroyed your own family.

Arthur Mitchell:
I gave them everything!

Dexter Morgan:
No, you took everything. Their future, their dignity, their hope. Christina... even killed herself.

Arthur Mitchell:
[shocked] No!

Dexter Morgan:
Because of you.

Arthur Mitchell:
S-she was weak!

Dexter Morgan:
I can't believe there was a time when I actually thought I could learn something from you.

Arthur Mitchell:
You think you're better than I am?

Dexter Morgan:
No... but I want to be.

Arthur Mitchell:
You can't control the demon inside of you any more than I can control mine.

Dexter Morgan:
Did you ever actually try?

Arthur Mitchell:
Oh, my God, yes. I prayed to be changed, to be made different.

Dexter Morgan:
That's not trying. That's waiting to be stopped.

Arthur Mitchell:
It worked, didn't it? Case in point.

Dexter Morgan:
So what's the alternative, Arthur? Leave? Disappear? Fake my own death and start over again?

Arthur Mitchell:
No. You'll still be you.

Dexter Morgan:
I have a family, too, Arthur. I'm good for them.

Arthur Mitchell:
[chuckles] You're like a child.

Dexter Morgan:
A child with a big knife.

Arthur Mitchell:
You dream of a heaven you'll never see.

Dexter Morgan:
I don't believe in heaven.

Arthur Mitchell:
Oh, but you do. This isn't your doing. This is God's plan. I accept that now. You have to do the same.

Dexter Morgan:
I accept nothing. Nothing is inevitable.

Arthur Mitchell:
It's already over. [Dexter looks quizzically at him] It's already over.
