	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Emile Danko: The past five years, I've lived... eight different lives, had wives and girlfriends, spoke six different languages, but at the end of the day, I still know who I am. Sylar: What's your point? Emile Danko: Whatever you're going through, this... identity crisis... you can survive. Sylar: How? Emile Danko: Find an anchor - something that reminds you of you. That way, when you're feeling lost, you'll have something to hang on to.
	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Sylar: Agent Taub's a nothing. I don't like being a nothing. Emile Danko: Think of it this way: as Agent Taub, you can come and go, kill who you want to kill. If you're Sylar, I have no choice but to hunt you down - make your life a living hell. It's up to you.
	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Sylar: I went to see my real father. He was so alone, so pathetic. I didn't want to become him, so I took this power, and now I can be anyone I want to be, anyone in the world. So tell me, mom - why do I feel so lost? Virginia Grey: You are not lost. You're my son! Maybe I didn't give birth to you, but I loved you. I wanted you right from the start. I saw how special you were. Sylar: But I killed you! Virginia Grey: And there was no one left to love you anymore. But now... I'm back.

	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Nathan Petrelli: I don't need to defend myself to you. You're pathetic. You're a psychopath. People like you are the reason I went to the President in the first place. If you think for one minute anybody's gonna believe you're me, you're wrong. Sylar: I'm not gonna be you - I'm gonna be better than you.
	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Sylar: That hurt.
	Season 3 / Episode 24: - I Am Sylar Sylar: [as Nathan Petrelli, giving a speech] I know a way to bring real purpose back to the White House, back to this country, and I promise you that when the President agrees to meet with me, when he agrees to shake my hand, real change will come to this country, and nothing... will ever be the same.
	Season 3 / Episode 22: - Turn and Face the Strange Emile Danko: I didn't know you could bleed like that. Sylar: I squeezed a little extra - for show.

	Season 3 / Episode 22: - Turn and Face the Strange Emile Danko: This is not about you finding some clever way to kill Noah Bennet! Sylar: I'm not gonna kill him. I'm gonna destroy him.
	Season 3 / Episode 21: - Into Asylum Emile Danko: How the hell did you get in here? Sylar: Well, you'd be amazed what you can do with a lifted I.D. badge, a four-dollar tie and a West Baltimore accent.
	Season 3 / Episode 21: - Into Asylum Emile Danko: So how did that feel? Zipping up that body bag? Sylar: Cathartic. Poetic. And tactically fortunate. It'll be a lot easier for us to operate... if everybody thinks I'm dead. Emile Danko: If we do this - if we succeed - you'd be the only one left. Sylar: Funny how that works.
	Season 3 / Episode 21: - Into Asylum Sylar: Maybe I'm the goose who lays the golden egg. I can round them all up. Emile Danko: You suggesting that I can't? Sylar: You chased a shape-shifter. You don't chase a shape-shifter.
	Season 3 / Episode 21: - Into Asylum Sylar: Why does anybody want power? To screw with people? Or to simply screw people?
	Season 3 / Episode 21: - Into Asylum Emile Danko: What's he up to? Why me? Sylar: He's after power. He thinks that's something you have - trying to convert the power into love. Doing a pretty good job of it too. He's a better you than you!
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Samson Gray: You have the same thing - taking people's abilities. Am I right? [laughs hoarsely] Samson Gray: I guess the apple didn't fall too far from the tree. Sylar: I'm not your apple. You don't know anything about me.
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Sylar: I guess, not everybody gets old. Not everybody dies. Samson Gray: Then you just have that much longer to suffer, don't you?
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Samson Gray: Please - I need... that power. I don't wanna die! Sylar: No, no, no, of course not. Of course you don't. Samson Gray: It won't kill you if I ta... take it. You'll... heal. You'll be fine. Sylar: Yeah. But so will you.
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Sylar: You're the hunter. I thought you would know when someone was playing possum; when the prey isn't so weak - so easy.
	Season 3 / Episode 19: - Shades of Gray Sylar: I'm sorry. You're just small game.
