Aunt Polly Gray

You have your mother’s common sense but your father’s devilment. I see them fighting. Let your mother win.

— ...he didn't come back. They don't. Why should they? You know the words. You're a whore. Baby's a bastard. But there's no word for the man who doesn't come back.

— Do you know a longer way back, Mr Gold?
— I know ways back that would take forever.

— Do you know, it was a fine speech you made in there, about this company believing in equal rights for women. But when it comes to it, you don't listen to a word we say. Maybe you don't trust us. She was one woman, Thomas. Well, maybe it's time you forgot about her.
— Forgot about who?

— Tommy... Of all of the people in the world, I want you to see it... as brave. <...>
— Brave is going where no man has gone before. And with Lizzie Stark, John, that is really not what you'll be doing.

— Some part of you...
— I have no parts.
— Some part of you wanted me as well. I know that, I felt it. And sure as hell some part of me wants you still. And no just that part, but... some part of my soul. Some part of my soul. Curious how that is to me and curious that it should be you. Opposites perhaps. Opposite, and that... That thing sticking in my heart, you own, you own part of that heart, you do. You do, Polly. You do.

— I am working... for the good of the company.
— You're grieving. And when you grieve, you make bad choices.

— The taking of any human life is a mortal sin.
— No. The unjust taking of a human life is a mortal sin.
