• [Mr. Chandler comforts Vanessa to bed] 

  Ethan Chandler : The first time I picked up a gun and decided my life was more important than anyone else's. You never come back from that.

  Vanessa Ives : And are you sure that wasn't part of His plan?

  Ethan Chandler : You've never killed anyone. Talk to me then.

  Vanessa Ives : Whatever you have done... whoever you have made yourself... I'm here to accept you. We're together for a reason.

  Ethan Chandler : God's plan?

  Vanessa Ives : Yes.

• [Mr. Chandler tells Vanessa what he believes in] 

  Ethan Chandler : I believe we make ourselves who we are, the blood is on our hands, not God's.

• [Vanessa is haunted by the witches at night, when she enters into Mr. Chandler's bedroom] 

  Vanessa Ives : [in frightful tears]  I thought I saw them, but they weren't there. I can't tell the difference whether they're real or in my head. I can't live with this anymore. But they're in my prayers now.

  Ethan Chandler : Shh. It's okay. You're safe here.

  Vanessa Ives : Safe? I wish I were going mad. Then the doctors could lock me away and cut out the madness. Anything to make it end. You know the true path to freedom? Open any vein.

• [Mr. Chandler is questioned by Inspector Rusk about the murders at the Inn] 

  Ethan Chandler : I'm not quite sure what I'm doing here, Inspector Rusk.

  Bartholomew Rusk : Because... you're a mystery.

  Ethan Chandler : And you don't like mysteries.

  Bartholomew Rusk : I like order. And peaceable streets upon to walk.

  Ethan Chandler : As do I.
