Mohinder Suresh Quotes

	Season 3 / Episode 25: - An Invisible Thread Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] There are nearly seven billion people on this planet. Each one unique, different. What are the chances of that? And why? Is it simply biology, physiology that determines this diversity? A collection of thoughts, memories, experiences that carve out our own special place? Or is it something more than this? Perhaps there's a master plan that drives the randomness of creation, something unknowable that dwells in the soul, and presents each one of us with a unique set of challenges, that will help us discover who we really are.
	Season 3 / Episode 25: - An Invisible Thread Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] We are all connected, joined together by an invisible thread, infinite in its potential and fragile in its design. Yet while connected, we are also merely individuals, empty vessels to be filled with infinite possibilities, an assortment of thoughts, beliefs, a collection of disjointed memories and experiences... Can I be me without these? Can you be you?
	Season 3 / Episode 25: - An Invisible Thread Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] And if this invisible thread that holds us together were to sever, to cease, what then? What would become of billions of lone, disconnected souls? Therein lies the great quest of our lives, to find, to connect, to hold on. For when our hearts are pure, and our thoughts in line, we are all truly one, capable of repairing our fragile world, and creating a universe of infinite possibilities.
	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] For every being cursed with self-awareness, there remains the unanswerable question: 'Who am I?' We struggle to find meaningful connections to one another. We are the caring friend, the loving father, the doting mother, the protected child. We fight and we love, in the hope that somehow, together, we can understand our significance in the universe. But in the end, no one can share our burden. Each of us alone must answer the question: Who am I? What does it mean to be alive? And in the vast infinity of time, how do I matter?
	Season 3 / Episode 23: - 1961 Mohinder Suresh: Fifty years ago, my father was a doctor here. I came to find out what he was doing. Now I'm not so sure I wanna know.
	Season 3 / Episode 23: - 1961 Mohinder Suresh: So what? My father was Dr. Mengele? Noah Bennet: You don't know what happened here. Mohinder Suresh: It's hard to ignore facts. Noah Bennet: Which are what? Mohinder Suresh: He worked here. Everyone died, he survived. The most obvious answer is usually the right one.
	Season 3 / Episode 23: - 1961 Mohinder Suresh: The storm covered the graves, they're all buried. Maybe it should remain that way.
	Season 3 / Episode 22: - Turn and Face the Strange Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] It is our nature to protect our children - for each generation to pass on their cautionary tales to the next. So it is with the myth of Icarus: the legend of a boy who fashioned wings from feathers and wax, daring to fly into the heavens. His father was fearful, and warned Icarus to be careful, begging him not to tempt fate by flying too close to the sun. But in the end, the boy couldn't resist. His wax and wings melted from the sun's rays, and he plunged... to his death.
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] Generations unfold, father to son, mother to daughter. Where one leaves off, the other follows, destined to repeat each other's mistakes, each other's triumphs. For how do we see the world, if not through their lens? The same fears, same desires - do we see them as an example to follow? Or as a warning of what to avoid? Choosing to live as they have, simply because it's what we know, or driven to create our own identity? And what happens if we find them to be a disappointment? Can we replace them? Our mothers, our fathers? Or will destiny find a way to drive us back, back to the familiar comforts of home?
	Season 3 / Episode 17: - Cold Wars Matt Parkman: You think you deserve this, to be hunted, after all that you've done. Mohinder Suresh: You're reading my mind? Matt Parkman: I don't have to read your mind. You're an open book!
	Season 3 / Episode 15: - Trust and Blood Mohinder Suresh: When did you learn to draw? Matt Parkman: I didn't. It just happened.
	Season 3 / Episode 14: - A Clear and Present Danger Peter Petrelli: You ever get the feeling like you're meant to do something extraordinary? Mohinder Suresh: [chuckles] I used to. Turns out I was mistaken.
	Season 3 / Episode 13: - Dual Mohinder Suresh: There is good, and there is evil, right and wrong, heroes and villains. And if we're blessed with wisdom, then there are glimpses between the cracks of each, where light streams through. We wait in silence for these times, when sense can be made; when meaningless existence comes into focus and our purpose presents itself. And if we have the strength to be honest, then what we find there, staring back at us, is our own reflection, bearing witness to the duality of life: that each one of us is capable of both the dark and the light, of good and evil, of either, of all. And destiny, while marching ever in our direction, can be re-routed by the choices we make, by the love we hold onto, and the promises we keep.
	Season 3 / Episode 12: - Our Father Mohinder Suresh: [after injecting the marine with the ability serum and the marine's initial reaction] How do you feel? Marine: I feel good!
	Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eclipse, Part 2 Arthur Petrelli: I think this eclipse showed us all exactly who we are - desperate, angry, and weak. Are you ready to get back to work? Mohinder Suresh: [showing signs of re-transformation] Look at me. Where else could I go? Arthur Petrelli: We'll find a cure. But that monster inside of you - that's something you're gonna have to take care of all by yourself.
	Season 3 / Episode 11: - The Eclipse, Part 2 Flint Gordon: Is this going to give me my powers back? Mohinder Suresh: It'll help track the changes your body's going through. Flint Gordon: You really think I'm that kind of stupid, Doc? Mohinder Suresh: Honestly? Yeah, I did.
	Season 3 / Episode 9: - It's Coming Mohinder Suresh: [voiceover] When the moon passes between the sun and the Earth, strange fascination takes root in the heart. And suddenly, anything is possible. Its power is undeniable; its beauty mesmerizing; its lure biblical; its meaning unknowable. And as quickly as it comes, it disappears, leaving us to dwell on our own insignificance, in the face of God.
	Season 3 / Episode 9: - It's Coming Mohinder Suresh: [voiceover] It starts with light, and it ends with light. And in between, there is darkness. Nothing there is beyond hope; nothing that can be sworn impossible; nothing left unimagined, since Zeus, father of the Olympians, made night from midday, hiding the light of the shining sun, and raining dark fear down upon men.
	Season 3 / Episode 8: - Villains Mohinder Suresh: A child is born to innocence; a child is drawn towards good. Why then do so many among us go so horribly wrong? -... - What makes some walk the path of darkness, while others choose the light? Is it will? Is it destiny? Can we ever hope to understand the force that shapes the soul? -... - To fight evil, one must know evil. One must journey back through time, and find that fork in the road where heroes turn one way and villains turn another.
	Season 3 / Episode 7: - Eris Quod Sum Mohinder Suresh: Do you know who this man is? Do you have any idea how many innocent people he's killed? Arthur Petrelli: I do. But he's also my son. And I've been waiting for him for a long time.
	Season 3 / Episode 7: - Eris Quod Sum Arthur Petrelli: I'm Arthur Petrelli. Mohinder Suresh: Everyone thinks you're dead. Arthur Petrelli: That was the idea. Mohinder Suresh: What could possibly drive a man to cause his children such grief? Arthur Petrelli: Have you met their mother?
	Season 3 / Episode 6: - Dying of the Light Daphne Millbrook: You know a lot about people like me. That's why they sent me to you. Mohinder Suresh: And what do they want with me? Daphne Millbrook: Access to your research, your database, contacts... Mohinder Suresh: Why on Earth would I give them that? Daphne Millbrook: It's not part of my job description; all I know is that they've already figured out how to do the thing that you're trying to do - to give people abilities... They need your help, you need theirs... Mohinder Suresh: Help to do what? Daphne Millbrook: [shrugs] Save the world...
	Season 3 / Episode 4: - I Am Become Death Neighbor: You stuck your nose where it didn't belong. Mohinder Suresh: So did you.
	Season 3 / Episode 4: - I Am Become Death Mohinder Suresh: The formula is transforming me. And I fear... I fear what I'm becoming.
	Season 3 / Episode 3: - One of Us, One of Them Mohinder Suresh: [voiceover] In the ongoing search for self, there are days when we learn something genuinely new. Something uncovered, hidden... that we never knew was there. Something that surprises us. And on that day of self discovery, a question remains: what kind of person are we? Does the hero or the villain inside us win the day?
	Season 2 / Episode 11: - Powerless Elle Bishop: Sylar's gone. My dad's gonna kill me! Mohinder Suresh: I doubt that very much. If you hadn't arrived, Sylar would have slaughtered us all. We owe you our lives. Elle Bishop: Really? Cool...
	Season 2 / Episode 10: - Truth & Consequences Bob Bishop: [on strain 138] This strain is locked safely away in our facility in Texas, and I can assure you, Doctor, this company is vigilant about security.

	Season 2 / Episode 9: - Cautionary Tales Elle Bishop: Do you know what happens when you change your plans mid-stream? Mohinder Suresh: No. Elle Bishop: Neither do I. Because we don't do it.
	Season 2 / Episode 9: - Cautionary Tales Mohinder Suresh: I'm here to ask you to give us Claire. We need her blood. Noah Bennet: You've gone native! Are you kidding me? Mohinder Suresh: She'll be returned to you safe - unharmed. You have my word. Noah Bennet: No offence, Mohinder, but your word isn't what it used to be. Mohinder Suresh: Claire is very important to the work we're doing. She can save lives. Noah Bennet: "The work we're doing." You sound like me ten years ago. This is what they do; they indoctrinate you. I couldn't have been more clear about this when you agreed to go in.
	Season 2 / Episode 8: - Four Months Ago... Mohinder Suresh: [voice-over] Is it man's ability to remember that sets us apart? We are the only species concerned with the past.
