‘Time of death - 11:59.’
‘I need that hope. I need to believe that no matter what happens in our lives, no matter how much darkness infects us, I need to believe that we can come back from that.’

Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 20 | Heroes
‘When I started this, I wanted to keep you as far away from it as possible. Because that has always been my instinct - to go at it alone. But the truth is that we won tonight, because I wasn’t alone. I thought that this crusade would only end with my death. But even if I had died tonight, it would live on. Because of you. And you.... Ah, and you.’ ‘It’s true. This city isn’t lacking masks.’ ‘Heroes. Which is why I no longer need to be one.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 20 | The Best Man I’ve Ever Known
‘John?’ ‘I’m happy for you, Oliver. Despite our issues, you deserve to be happy. You and Felicity. And you’re right, the city is in good hands.’ ‘Including yours.’ ‘I’m no superhero.’ ‘You’re a hero. For three years, you’ve been my rock. The city’s rock. My rock. For three years, you have been the person that I could count on. I’m still counting on you.’ ‘Oliver, I don’t know if I can get past what happened between the two of us.’ ‘I’m not asking you to.’ ‘I’ll think on it.’ ‘Ok. John? If you’re going to keep going, you may want to find a way to conceal your identity when you’re out there.’ ‘I’ll think on that, too. You be well, Oliver.’ ‘You too.’
‘You both almost got killed tonight because you didn’t have each other’s backs.’
‘If you’re gonna keep going out in the field, we should really design you some sort of-’ ‘Do not say “costume”.’ ‘Okay. Identity concealment.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 13 | Sara
‘It’s taking too long. Sara’s killer is still out there, which means that every minute we waste down here-’ ‘I know. You don’t need to tell me as if I don’t already know.’ ‘You’re right. And I apologize, I just need your A-game right now, Felicity.’ ‘I don’t have it. My friend, our friend, was shot with arrows and fell off of a rooftop. Her body is upstairs, right above us, in a freezer because we don’t know what to do with it... with her. So, I am so sorry, Oliver, if I have feelings, but maybe if you did too, we... I’m sorry, that was mean. But this is Sara we’re talking about. Your Sara. How can you stand there being so cold and rational?’ ‘Because I don’t have the luxury of falling to pieces. Everyone’s looking to me to handle things. To make the right decisions. Everyone is looking to me to lead. If I grieve, nobody else gets to.’ ‘You’re still a human being, Oliver. You’re allowed to have feelings. I know, sometimes, that it’s easier to live under that hood...’ ‘I’m not. Earlier today, I was looking at Sara. And I realized something. One of these days it’s going to be me. And this... This life that I’ve chosen... It only ends one way.’ ‘So, that’s it? You’re just going to spend your life hiding down here in this cave, waiting to die? I’m sorry. I’m not going to wait with you. Because, if there’s one thing that today has taught me, it’s that life is precious. And I want so much more out of mine than this.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 12 | Streets Of Fire
‘When you and Diggle brought me back to Starling City, I made a vow to myself that I would never let anything like The Undertaking happen again.’ ‘What’s happening now is not your fault.’ ‘Yes, it is. I have failed this city. Yao Fei. Shado. Tommy. My father. My mother. All that I have ever wanted to do is honor those people.’ ‘You honor the dead by fighting. And you are not done fighting! Malcolm Merlyn. The Count. The Clock King. The Triad. Everyone who is trying to hurt this city, you stopped them! And you will stop Slade.’ ‘I don’t know how.’ ‘Neither do I. But I do know two things. You are not alone. And I believe in you.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 8 | H.I.V.E.
‘That’s the thing about honor, John. You can’t turn it on and off. I’m just curious. How is you think your brother ended up dead?’ ‘You shot at a client that Andy was protecting, and you missed.’ ‘I don’t miss. Your brother was the contract.’ ‘Who would want to kill Andy?’ ‘Don’t know their names, just an alias: H.I.V.E. Food for thought, John. Food for thought.’’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode & geniewithwifi) Week 6 | City Of Heroes
‘Well, it looks like Starling is back to having only one man in a hood.’ ‘And the three of us are back in the archery business.’ ‘No. I spent the last year trying to avenge my father. If we’re going to do this, it has to be about honoring Tommy. I need to become the man he hoped I could be. And you two have helped me to take the first step.’ ‘So what’s step two? I’m game for anything, as long as it doesn’t involve skydiving. And I’m pretty down on landlines now too.’ ‘This city still needs saving. But not by The Hood. And not by some vigilante who’s just crossing names off a list. It needs... something more.’ ‘It needs a hero, Oliver.’ ‘Too bad the hoods kind of ruined your nickname.’ ‘No, it’s good, I never... I don’t want to be called The Hood anymore.’ ‘Okay. So what do you want to be called?’

‘You know, you can just say this isn’t working.’ ‘This isn’t working!’ ‘There has to be some other way we can find out where he’s keeping this device.’ ‘Unless I can waltz up to Merlyn’s mainframe and plug in my tablet directly, there’s no way of getting that location.’ ‘Then we waltz.’ ‘Excuse me?’ ‘You need direct access to the mainframe, so we get you direct access to the mainframe and figure out where the device is being kept.’ ‘Oliver, I did mention that the mainframe is located inside Merlyn Global Group’s headquarters. On the 25th floor. It’s only accessible through a restricted elevator.’ ‘I know. We’re going to have to break in.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (byolicityalamode&geniewithwifi) Week 4 | Original Team Arrow Is Born
‘I hope it’s alright. Your system looked like it was from the 80′s. And not the good part of the 80′s, like... Madonna... and leg warmers.’ ‘That’s a lot of work. Does that mean you’re in?’ ‘”In” as in, am I going to join your crusade?’ ‘Well, you’re practically an honorary member of the team already.’ ‘Oliver, I know you don’t want to hurt this girl and you didn’t have any choice in telling her who you really were. But we’re asking her to get involved in some pretty dangerous stuff.’ ‘We can protect her.’
Arrow Hellatus Project - Arrow Summer Rewatch (by olicityalamode &geniewithwifi) Week 1 | Original Team Arrow
‘You don’t think much of me, do you?’ ‘Actually, sir, I have a very high regard for how... perceptive you are.’ ‘Felicity Smoak? Hi, I’m Oliver Queen.’ ‘Of course! I know who you are, you’re “Mr Queen”!’ ‘No, Mr Queen was my father.’ ‘Right. But he’s dead. I mean he drowned. And you didn’t. Which means you can come down to the IT department and listen to me babble. Which will end in 3... 2... 1.’
‘Oliver... He’s gone. He joined the League. He’s not coming back.’
‘You can stare down death with something to life for or not. Something to life for is better.’
