Quotes 

• Vince Masuka : Step away from the incense. This is America, buddy. Freedom of religion.

  Dexter Morgan : I didn't realize you were a buddhist, Vince. Japanese are traditionally shinto.

  Vince Masuka : Really? Oh, whatever. I bought all this shit off my manicurist. Need all the luck I can get. Got a crucifix up there too.

  Dexter Morgan : Because it did so much for Jesus?

• Dexter Morgan : [voice-over]  We're supposed to see hope in children. But right now,all I see are little bundles of uncertainty. And germs.

• [first lines] 

  Dexter Morgan : [narrating]  We're supposed to see hope in children. But right now all I see is bundles of uncertainty. And germs, but that's another matter. I love kids. I can play with them, enjoy them. And leave. I don't have to worry about what they'll become. An Nobel Prize Laureate?

  [little girl reading] 

  Dexter Morgan : A drunk?

  [little girl with sippy cup] 

  Dexter Morgan : President of the United States?

  [nose-picking boy] 

  Dexter Morgan : Or someone like me. Why do parents take the chance? I've never felt compelled. But why would I? I'm not in the business of *giving* life.

  [Rita emerges from her pregnancy appointment] 

• Dexter Morgan : [noticing family pictures]  Strong family resemblance.

  ADA Miguel Prado : My father. He was a drunk and a bastard. But he had a distinctive chin. Some people just shouldn't have kids, ya know?

  Dexter Morgan : I wish there were a test.

• Dexter Morgan : [Almost chanting in his thoughts]  If my first stab at Freebo has gone as planned / Oscar Prado might still be alive, / Miguel wouldn't know who I was, / Teegan would have lived to ho another day, / and Deb wouldn't be chasing a Jane Doe. / And I wouldn't be watching the clock, / counting the minutes till darkness comes, / trying to get the jump on my friends in blue.
