CHARACTER BEST:

DEXTER QUOTES
  • "Normal people are so hostile." (Episode 1: "Dexter")
  • "People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake them all, and I fake them very well, that's my burden, I guess."

  • "Ass en route"
  • "I will not kill my sister, I will not kill my sister, I will not kill my sister!"

  • "Blood. Sometimes it sets my teeth on edge, other times it helps me control the chaos"

  • "There's something strange and disarming about looking at a homicide scene in the daylight of Miami. It makes the most grotesque killings look staged, like you're in a new and daring section of Disney World: Dahmerland! "
