- Ned: You're the only one for me.
- Charlotte 'Chuck' Charles: I know you feel that way now, but there are things you want... there are things we both want.
- Ned: Oh, everyone wants stuff. We wake up, everyday with a list of wishes a mile long and maybe we spend our lives trying to make those wishes come true, but just because we want them doesn't mean we need them to be happy.
- Charlotte 'Chuck' Charles: What do you need to be happy?
- Ned: You.

- Emerson Cod: Ain't nobody making nothing for their polygamy cult.
- Ned: Everyone wants stuff. We wake up every day with a list of wishes and maybe we spend our lives trying to make those wishes come true. But just because we want them doesn't mean we need them to be happy.
