Quotes

Chuck: I don’t need a balcony and I don’t need a sunset. We have each other and that’s all that matters.

Sarah: (to Chuck) I didn’t fall in love with James Bond. I fell in love with you.

Chuck: I was gonna propose to her, Casey.
Casey: You know, I proposed once. (He lights a cigar) To Kathleen. We had plans to go to Niagara Falls. I was about to ship out. But we were young, and I was stupid, and things got screwed up, so I ended up proposing in a Buffalo bus station. Not exactly the most romantic spot in the world. But I’ll always have that day. I’ll always have that look on her face. You know, the truth is, there’s no such thing as a perfect moment or perfect spot. So…forget about the balcony, Bartowski. All you need is the girl.

Morgan: Holy hell, Sarah, you just scared me to death. I thought you could have been somebody deadly.
Sarah: I am somebody deadly.

Morgan: Okay. Don’t you want to be surprised?
Sarah: I’m a spy. I hate surprises.
