- Steve Miller: Do you even know what PMS is, Jonah ?
- Jonah Miller: Of course I do dad, I'm not a little kid anymore. It's the Pissed At Men Syndrome.
- Steve Miller: Sometimes you have to be apart from the people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes it makes you love them more.

- Will Blakelee: Because I thought you would like her as much as I do, scars and all.

- Veronica 'Ronnie' Miller: You lied to me dad.
- Steve Miller: I didn't lie.
- Veronica 'Ronnie' Miller: Yes you did. You said you were fine. You're not fine! That was a lie!
