- Genie: You've awakened the genie of Agrabah. You're entitled to three wishes, no more, no less. But you must know that magic has its limits. You cannot wish for life nor death, you cannot wish for love, you cannot wish for more wishes. And once spoken, a wish cannot be undone, no matter what the consequences. So - tell me your first wish.
- Sidney Glass: Sometimes doing a bad thing for a good reason is OK, right?
- Mary Margaret Blanchard: Yeah. I mean, maybe you're doing something wrong, but if it's what's meant to be, if it's what's right, does that really make you a bad person?
- Regina Mills: You see me as a villain, Ms. Swan. But that's just your perception, and you're wrong. Learn your place in this town, or soon enough, you won't be in it.
- Evil Queen: Well, looks like you got your wish. You *will* be with me - forever.
- [after the genie gets trapped inside the Queen's mirror]
- Sidney Glass: You wanna show this town who the mayor really is? I can help.
- Emma Swan: It's gonna be kinda hard to do from inside her pocket.
- [King Leopold has given his last wish to the genie]
- Genie: In my time, I have granted 1,001 wishes; and I have seen them end poorly 1,001 times. Making a wish comes with a price. And that is why I will *never* use this wish.
- Evil Queen: No matter how hard I try to please the king... he will never love me the way he loved his first wife. I'm trapped by the memory of the life they used to share.
- Genie: I know about being trapped, more than anyone. Maybe this will lift your spirits.
- [he gives her a mirror]
- Genie: So you... can see yourself... the way I see you.
- Evil Queen: And how do you see me?
- Genie: As the fairest in all the land.
