Once upon a time – Series Quotes [Season 1, Episode 2]

There is a town in Maine... Where every storybook character you've ever known... is trapped between two worlds. Victims of a powerful curse... That can only be
broken by one person.

— No, I think the curse is crazy. But that doesn't mean that it isn't true. It is a lot to ask anyone to believe in. But there are a lot of crazy things in this world. So what do I know? Maybe it is true.
— But you told my mom...
— What she needed to hear.

— When you bailed me out, you said that you trusted me. Why?
— It's strange. Ever since you arrived here, I've had the oddest feeling like we met before. And I know it's crazy.
— I'm starting to reevaluate my definition of crazy.
— For what it's worth, I think you're innocent.
— Of breaking and entering or just in general?
— It doesn't really matter what anyone thinks I did or didn't do. I'm leaving. Thank you for everything, but I think it's for the best. If I stay, Henry's only gonna keep getting hurt.
— What happens if you go? I think the very fact that you want to leave is why you have to stay. You care about him. Who will protect Henry if you won't?

— And all you need to know is that Miss Blanchard is gonna bail her out.
— You are? Why?
— I trust you.

You have no soul. How in the hell did you get like this?

— He's my son. It's what's best for him.
— I know that's what you believe, but if this escalates, it seems to me the only one who will get hurt is Henry.

— Revenge is a dark and lonely road. Once you go down it, there's no heading back.
— What is there for me to head back to?

She's the Mayor. She has her hands in everything.

His mother is a very complicated woman. Over the years, her attempts to try and bring Henry closer have only backfired.

— This fairy tale obsession. What is causing it? I mean, he thinks everyone is a character in his book. That's crazy.
— I hope you don't talk that way in front of him. The word "crazy" is quite damaging. These stories. They're his language.

— She is not a great people person. How did she get elected?
— She's been Mayor as long as I can remember. No one's ever been brave enough to run against her.

— It's good to see his smile back.
— I didn't do anything.
— You stayed.

— I knew you'd believe me.
— I never said I did.
— Why else would you be here?

I know the hero never believes at first. If they did, it wouldn't be a very good story.
