Dr. Hannibal Lecter : God's terrific. He dropped a church roof on thirty-four of his worshippers last Wednesday night in Texas while they sang a hymn.
Special Agent Will Graham : Did God feel good about that?
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : He felt powerful.

Special Agent Will Graham : Therapy is an acquired taste I have yet to acquire.

Dr. Hannibal Lecter : When you shot Eldon Stammets, who was it that you saw?
Special Agent Will Graham : I didn't see Hobbs.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : Then it's not Hobbs's ghost that's haunting you, is it? It's the inevitability of there being a man so bad that killing him felt good.
Special Agent Will Graham : Killing Hobbs felt *just*.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : Which is why you're here. To prove that sprig of zest you feel is from saving Abigail, and not from killing her dad.
Special Agent Will Graham : I didn't feel a sprig of zest when I shot Eldon Stammets.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : You didn't kill Eldon Stammets.
Special Agent Will Graham : ...I thought about it. I'm still not entirely sure that wasn't my intention when pulling the trigger.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : If your intention was to kill him then it's because you understand why he did the things he did. It's beautiful, in it's own way.
-
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : It wasn't the act of killing Hobbs that got you down, was it?... Did you really feel so bad because killing him felt so good?
Special Agent Will Graham : ...I liked killing Hobbs.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : Killing must feel good to God, too... He does it all the time, and are we not created in His image?
-
Special Agent Will Graham : I don't consider Hobbs my victim.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : What do you consider him?
Special Agent Will Graham : Dead.
-
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : The structure of a fungus mirrors that of the human brain an intricate web of connections.
Will Graham : So maybe he admires their ability to connect the way human minds can't.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : Yours can.
Will Graham : [laugh] Yep. Um yeah, not physically.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : Is that what your farmer is looking for? Some sort of connection?
-
Will Graham : I don't consider Hobbs my victim.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : What do you consider him?
Will Graham : Dead.

Will Graham : Jack says I need therapy.
Dr. Hannibal Lecter : What you need is a way out of dark places when Jack sends you there.
Will Graham : Last time he sent me into a dark place, I brought something back.
