Hearts Still Beating

The Walking Dead 7×8

& Negan: Against the grain, kid. Always against the grain.

& Carol: Apparently, some people are having a hard time believing me when I say I just want to be left alone.

& Carol: How are you?
    Morgan: Good.
    Carol: Good. Now you can go.
    Morgan: I think you’re going soft.
    Carol: I think you’re going.

& Aaron: What we’re doing is gonna keep people living. We get to do that, it doesn’t matter what happens to us.
    Rick: Michonne doesn’t think this is living...
    Aaron: Well, committing to a choice like this, after living how we did— free— I get it. It’s hard. It’s giving up everything, right up until your own life. But either your heart’s beating, or it isn’t. We take what they give us so that we can live.

& Michonne: Let’s see what happens...

& Michonne: I’m not gonna kill him today. I’m gonna find the way that we win.

& Father Gabriel: But... why do you?.. No need to lie to me if... this is our last conversation.
    Rosita: If Abraham was alive, we could fight. If Glenn was, Maggie’s kid would have a father. Michonne and Carl can fight. They have Rick. Aaron has Eric. Eugene knows things. Daryl’s strong.
    Father Gabriel: What about Sasha?

& Father Gabriel: It shouldn’t have been you. It shouldn’t have been anyone. We’ll win, but we need to wait for the right moment or create it... together. And you’re a part of that together.

& Richard: You’re gonna choose to kill one day, Morgan, ’cause it will get that bad! Why not choose now, before you lose someone you care about?
    Morgan: There’s a peace now. I won’t be a part of changing that. And maybe we can build on that.
    Richard: Not with these people! When they turn on us — and they will— that blood is gonna be on your hands!.. But maybe you’re both used to that...

& Daryl: It ain’t just about gettin’ by here. It’s about gettin’ it all.

& Spencer: We haven’t officially met. I’m Spencer Monroe. Hi.

& Isabelle: That’s Negan...
    Michonne: Is he down there?
    Isabelle: Yeah. We’re all Negan.

& Isabelle: Whatever you’re trying to do, you can’t.

& Negan: Oh, Spencer, you may just be my new best friend.

& Negan: I could never do this with Rick. He would just be standing there, scowling, giving me that annoying side-eye he gives me...

& Aaron: My heart’s still beating, right?

& Negan: I’m thinking, Spencer. I’m thinking how Rick threatened to kill me, how he clearly hates my guts. But he is out there right now, gathering shit for me to make sure I don’t hurt any of the fine people that live here. He is swallowing his hate and getting shit done. That takes guts.

& Negan: I got to ask— if you wanna take over, why not just kill Rick yourself and just take over?

& Negan: Ohh! How embarrassing. There they are. They were inside you the whole time. You did have guts. I’ve never been so wrong in my whole life!

& Negan: ...how about a little credit? I just bent over backwards to show you how reasonable I am.
    Your kid— he hid in one of my trucks and machine-gunned a bunch of my men down, and I brought him home, safe and sound, and I fed him spaghetti.

& Eugene: It required one spent casing, one four-holed turret reloader, powder, one funnel for the powder—
    Negan: Shut up. I believe you.

& Negan: Lucille, give me strength.

& Michonne: We can fight them, Rick. We can find a way to beat them. We can do this. But... But... Only if... we do this.
    Rick: Yeah, I know that now. I know that now.
