Quotes[]

....
- Eric Northman: Hello Governor!
- Truman Burrell: You took my Willa.
- Eric Northman: I did.
- Truman Burrell: She's still alive?
- Eric Northmanc: She is.
- Truman Burrell: Can you prove that to me?
- Eric Northman: I won't. Now here's why. Your Willa won't be alive for long.
....
- Tara Thornton: It's savage ass shit like that, that makes humans hate us.
....
- Sookie Stackhouse: I do know that Grandpa Niall, but you gotta realize I can barely remember the last time I wasn't in danger. Danger is a fact of life for me, so if I get worked up every time I'm in trouble it's like I'm crying wolf to myself. So I try to keep an even keel, I take regular danger in stride and that way I still have a real healthy fear inside me for when the shit really hits the fan.
....
- Sookie Stackhouse: Listen to yourself, you really believe you're god? You're not god Bill! You're just an asshole!
....
- Eric Northman: Are you daddy's little girl Willa? Does he love you more than his own life? So if I tear you apart, right down here, would that devastate him and would it rip his fucking heart out?
....
- Andy Bellefleur: Damn it girls! How many times I have to tell you? Hand lasers off!
