Brothers & Sisters

As a follow-up to the recap, here are some memorable lines from the episode “An Act of Will.” Did I miss your favorites? Add them in the comments.

Paige: I can’t be Hawaii without a grass skirt!

Nora: You know, it is so funny, the minute the funeral was over, then virtually every single conversation over the past three weeks has contained some variation of “Are you keeping busy?” “Are you filling your days?” “Are you moving on?”
Kevin: So are you?
Nora: Yes, yes. Sometimes. And then sometimes it gets very, very quiet.

Kevin: And if and when Mom dies …
Nora: Thank you for the “if,” Kevin. It was really sweet.

Holly: Women don’t have affairs to be remembered in the will.

Kitty: Justin is who he is. I didn’t convince him to enlist any more than you convinced him to raid your medicine cabinet at age 16, or to get himself kicked out of college for selling shrooms out of the back of his car.

Noah: You have no idea what families can survive.

Sarah: Being in synch with a man who’s not your husband, is almost as bad as not being in synch with your husband.

Kitty: You blame everybody else. You go out of your way. It’s me. It’s Kevin. It’s Dad. Where were you in the picture? Do you ever think about that?

Sarah: It’s the minimum basic requirement that a party store always have Hawaii. Children have recitals and their parents, their mothers can’t do it all and we rely on our party store to keep up their end of the bargain so that our husbands, our children don’t despise us when we come home empty handed.

Justin: Kevin always does the right thing, except sleep with women.

Nora: Your father loved you more than anything on earth, you little spoiled brat.
Justin: You know what love means in this family? It means you suck. It means nothing you do will be good enough.

Justin: He hated me, Kitty.
Kitty: Is that what you think?
Justin: I could see it always, the look of somebody who doesn’t expect anything from you.

Kitty: He loved you with all of his heart.
Justin: They have to love you. It’s their job.

Kitty: He told me that out of all of his children, you were the only one who made him remember what being a kid was. You were the only one who could do that. He was so proud of you.
