The Good Wife, Season 4

Diane:
If you go nuclear, don't leave missiles in your silo.

Judge Thomas Politi:
Come on, Miss Pine. When the law is an ass, someone has to kick it.

Diane:
You know why I was made partner? Jonas Stern was sued for sexual harassment, and he needed to show that he had a female partner. That's all. When the door that you have been knocking at finally swings open, you don't ask why, you run through. That is the simple fact. No one is here to make it comfortable for you. No one is here to appreciate your moping, so this is my advice to you, take a minute for yourself, put on your best gracious voice, find a way to wear a smile, and then come into the conference room ready to thank the equity partners for giving you this opportunity. Because what is given can quickly be taken away.

Clarke:
We? When did we become a we?

Canning:
You're right, I'm being presumptuous. Lockhart/Gardner is a good firm with good people who are being mismanaged. Now, if you agree with that, then we are a we.

Clarke:
I'm not here to destroy it.

Canning:
I know. You're here to make sure the firm's creditor, myself, gets paid, and to put a good firm on firmer footing. That's what I want, too.

David:
That concession was damaging. We can't afford any more giveaways.

Alicia:
David, she's a woman in love, it's gonna be hard to motivate her.

Kalinda:
Do you need dirt?

David:
Yes. But that's the challenge about prenups, you need to throw enough dirt on the spouse to get something, but not too much to kill the wedding.

Kalinda':
I'll be delicate.
