- Athena Grant: I got married because my biological clock was ticking. I stayed married for the kids. I'm getting divorced for myself.
- Henrietta 'Hen' Wilson: You had me, Eva. You had me. I loved you. I would've done anything for you. That wasn't enough. I wasn't enough. See, you have this fantasy of us playing house, as if I hadn't already lived through that. I know how it goes. I know how it goes. It's me trying over and over and over to build a life for us, and you tearing it down brick by brick by brick until I'm left alone, heartbroken, in a hole that I don't even know how to climb out of. I survived you, Eva. And I'm sure as hell not gonna let you put Denny through this.
- Abby Clark: People are resilient. I think we're designed that way. It's embedded in our DNA to forge ahead, soldier on. It's a whole lot easier to do with an army at your back.
- Evan 'Buck' Buckley: See, I feel like anyone else -most people - if they were dealing with the stuff you have to deal with every single day, they would see it as a cage, but you don't. You find a way to break free. You find a way to be yourself. You find life. And if the price I have to pay for being close to a woman like you is yeah, whatever, a couple of cancelled dates, then you know what? That's a heck of a good deal. And I'm in. I'm not going anywhere.
- Bobby Nash: Look, all those things that you feel when you're with Abby: the closeness, intimacy, and trust, those things don't come for free. Any woman of substance and experience has lived a life, and she's going to come with some baggage.
- Howie 'Chimney' Han: Come out to the coast, get together, have a few laughs.
- Evan 'Buck' Buckley: What's that, Chim?
- Howie 'Chimney' Han: [sighs] You make me sad, Buck, very sad.
- Evan 'Buck' Buckley: I'm starting to think maybe this kind of relationship isn't for me.
- Bobby Nash: You mean a real one.
- Evan 'Buck' Buckley: I don't suppose you do a lot of pull-ups.
- Marjorie Daniels' Son: What?
- Evan 'Buck' Buckley: That's that I thought.
