Lost Quotes

Charlotte: I've been here before.
Dan: You've been...you've been here before?
Charlotte: I grew up here. On the island. There was this thing, this DHARMA Initiative, and then I moved away with my mum. Just my mum, and I never saw my dad again. Then when I got back to England, I would ask my mum about this place, but she would say that it wasn't real, and that I'd made it up. That's why I became an anthropologist. To find this island again. It's what I've been searching for my whole life.
Dan: Charlotte, why are you telling me this?
Charlotte: Because I remember something now. When I was little, living here, there was this man, this crazy man. He really scared me. And he told me that I had to leave the island and never ever come back. He told me that if I came back to the island, I would die.
Dan: Charlotte, I don't understand.
Charlotte: Daniel! I think that man was you.

Sawyer: You got in a fight over a necklace?
Horace: I know. But... It's only been three years, Jim. Just three years that he's been gone. Is that really long enough to get over someone?
Sawyer: I had a thing for a girl once. And I had a shot at her, but I didn't take it. For a little while, I'd lay in bed every night, wondering if it was a mistake. Wondering if... I'd ever stop thinking about her. And now I can barely remember what she looks like. I mean, her face... it's.. She's just gone, and she ain't never coming back. So... Is three years long enough to get over someone? Absolutely.
