Smallville Season 7 Episode 1

Lex: I was dead. And there was this light. And an angel. Why would she save me... after all I've done?

Clark: You want to tell me what really happened?
Chloe: Clark, as much as I would love to contribute to Lois' divine-intervention story, I was a little busy being unconscious.
Clark: Chloe, come on.
Chloe: I don't have time for 20 Questions right now, I've got to get out of here.
Clark: You just died and came back to life. Don't you think you should at least have your blood pressure taken?

Lex: A phantom. You took Clark's body.
Bizarro: Just a few cells. Clark's still alive. He's out there. And you will help me kill him. I need meteor rocks. A lot of them.
Lex: I'd never help you kill Clark.
Bizarro: Lex, redemption doesn't suit you. Why protect a Clark Kent who hates you when you can help the one who wants to be your ally? It's what you've always wanted. Isn't it, Lex?

(after crying over Lana's death)
Clark: There's a lot more people who could get hurt right now.
Chloe: Yeah. Denial should be our friend right now.

Chloe: This guy can fly? God, Clark, you got to get on that one.

Clark: When you left here, you were hurt pretty badly. How did you heal so fast?
John: I just had to leave the Earth's atmosphere. But in my absence, it appeared you did exactly what Jor-El was trying to prevent.
Clark: I unleashed a carbon-copy of myself. Only without my...
John: Humanity.
Clark: What was I supposed to do, let him kill every host he inhabited?
John: That is one of the hardest trials you will face, Kal-El. While your humanity is your greatest strength, it is also your greatest vulnerability.
Clark: Well it's part of who I am. And it's who I want to be. I'm proud I was raised to care for people. And I'm not going to apologize for it anymore.
John: I know. But this creature was discarded at birth as a poor imitation. He was shown no compassion, no conscience. Therefore, he has none. He knows only one thing--survival.
Clark: How do I stop someone who has all my powers and none of my weaknesses?
John: By opening your eyes to what you take for granted every day. Your faith in humans is not the only thing that gives you strength.
Clark: Yellow sun.

Lex: (aims ray gun at Bizarro) I may have tracked you around the globe, but clearly you're not a native. Where are you from and why did you only replicate Clark?
Bizarro: Now you got a decision to make, Lex. What's more important? Destroying me or solving the mystery of Clark Kent?

Clark: Chloe, when I heard about Lana, I went to find Lex. And I wasn't gonna let him leave there alive. The irony is I think it was the first time I ever really understood Lex. Loving someone is hard. It's difficult. But hate... hate is so... clean.
Chloe: Maybe you need to feel this right now. I mean, anger is a natural human emotion.
Clark: Well, that's just it. Cause when that phantom was trying to kill me and I was staring into my own eyes, I saw the monster that I could become if I wanted to. It was a reminder that I am not human.
Chloe: Tell that to every person you've ever saved. Clark, whether you wanna see it or not, you're one of us now. And the fact you're from a galaxy far, far away just... adds character. And you know I'm here, no matter what side of nature or nuture happens to be winning out.
Clark: It goes both ways, Chloe.

Lois: I forgive you.
Clark: For what?
Lois: Oh don't make me relive it. It was traumatizing enough the first time around.

Lois: (to Clark) Just trust me on this one. But if you ever grab my ass again, I will be taking your head with me when I go.

John: Your father would be proud. He did everything he could to prepare you. But bravery is not something you can learn.
Clark: How much bravery does it take when you're getting pummeled?
John: Kal-El...you could have ignored all the phantoms that escaped the Phantom Zone, but you chose to take responsibility and stop them. Even one more powerful than you.
Clark: In a weird way, he may have been right. Maybe I have allowed myself to become weak, caring too much about everything, everyone here.
John: You've learned a lot from your time in Smallville. These people have made you who you are.
Clark: They won't always be here. Losing Lana has made me realize no matter how close I get, someday they'll all be gone. And all the time I've spent ignoring my destiny, trying to be something I'll never be...human.

Bizarro: Man, how can a guy miss what's been right in front of him all this time?
Lois: Slow down there, tiger. A little personal-space breach.
Bizarro: Come on, I know you're looking for a guy who doesn't play by the rules.
Lois: And on what planet is that you, Smallville?
Bizarro: Whatever planet you want me to take you to.

Bizarro: Hey, Clark. You ever wonder what would happen to all these humans if you weren't here to play savior? I know you do. You just never admit it.
Clark: You don't know anything about me.
Bizarro: No, Clark. I know everything about you. I just didn't borrow your DNA, I have all your memories, all your thoughts, every last twisted one of them. When I'm living your life, I won't make those same mistakes.
