Smallville Quotes (Page 19)
Lex: Clark, I understand what you're going through, but sometimes, no matter how much you want to save someone, there's nothing you can do.
Clark: I'm not gonna let Ryan down.
Lex: When my mother got sick, I spent all my time researching the best doctors and treatments. The most important thing I could've done was spend time with her. By the time I realized that, it was too late. I wasn't at her side when she passed, Clark. Don't make the same mistake I did.
Clark: I'm not going to let him die, Lex.
Lana: I decided to tell Nell that I wasn't moving with her to Metropolis.
Chloe: Wow. That's very Erin Brokovich of you. How did Nell take it?
Lana: One, she's my legal guardian, two, I'm a teenager, and three... I don't have any say in the matter.
Chloe: That pretty much covers all your bases.
Lex: Ryan, real life is not a comic book. Sometimes you have to get your hands dirty, make compromises.
Ryan: That's what your father told you. That doesn't mean it's right.
Clark: Don't go... I mean don't go to Metropolis.
Lana: Or what, you're going to kidnap me too?
Lex: So you staged a one-man prison break? How did you manage to get him out without anybody stopping you?
Clark: Just lucky, I guess.
Lex: You're the luckiest guy I've ever met. Lets hope it doesn't run out before tomorrow.
Clark: I appreciate you taking Ryan in. If I took him home, my parents would've freaked.
Lex: Yeah, kidnapping has that effect on people.
Lionel: Lex? That you?
Lex: Still alive and kicking, Dad. No thanks to you.
Lionel: You're a survivor, son. I knew she wasn't going to kill you.
Lex: Not for lack of trying.
Lana: I have done pretty well without a father this long. I don't know why I thought I needed one now.
Clark: I do. Lana, we're different. We don't get to see our biological parents every day, and see a little piece of who we are, who we may become. If I had a chance to get to know my birth parents, I wouldn't give up just because the first meeting didn't go the way I hoped.
Lex: Ever wish you had a big brother to help you with your jump shot?
Clark: I think I've managed to become a pretty decent player on my own.
Lex: Rachel Dunleavy came to see me. She says you and I have a few chromosomes in common. My father's chromosomes to be exact.
Clark: You mean...
Lex: Personally, I think I got all the looks in the family.
Lana: What's wrong?
Chloe: Clark and I just had a massive blow-out.
Lana: About what?
Chloe: His secrets, privacy... my pathological inability to curb my curiosity.
