--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

This girl was the daughter of the same Sportsmaster guy mom used to fight. Her mother and father hooked up in the Injustice Society. She probably felt she had big boots to fill. We could've started a support group if she hadn't been trying to kill me.

You and Oracle should hang out and trade obscurities. She's got a mess of 'em.

--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

I used to think fights followed me around. But Huntress seems to know trouble on a first-name basis. Forget that. She and trouble are conjoined twins.

Death by ice cream. Had to happen someday. Oh, man.

Oracle, I just want you to know, that terrified feeling in my bladder? That's all you.

I loved being part of the tradition, part of an elite. And it was my obligation to protect those who were less... able. Then when that man... cut me, I couldn't even scream. I was so... helpless. It wasn't supposed to be like this! I was supposed to be stronger!!

--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

Damn you, Oliver Queen. It's been almost a year. Where are you?

Some of us do have to work, Oliver. I mean, we don't all have closets full of money.

--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

Saturday night... you were supposed to pick me up at eight. You were late. The Tanetti hit happened at 7:45... across town. How long does it take to get from there to my place?

--Dinah Laurel Lance (New Earth)

You've changed, Oliver. If you ever wondered what makes a man like Fyres, you should look in a mirror. You have all the signs.
