Sylar Quotes

04x19 - Brave New World Season 4 / Episode 19: - Brave New World

Eric Doyle: Sylar, please. Listen to me. Please, Samuel made me do it.
Sylar: Really? 'Cause I thought you were the puppet master.
Eric Doyle: Oh, come on. What do you care about this girl, anyway?
Sylar: I am here to save her.
Eric Doyle: That's not you. You're like me.
Sylar: No. I'm a hero.
04x19 - Brave New World Season 4 / Episode 19: - Brave New World

Peter Petrelli: [reading Eli's mind] Samuel's gonna show the world his powers... New York City... Central Park... Tonight.
Sylar: What does he mean, show his power?
Peter Petrelli: He's gonna open up the ground, kill them all, bury 'em.
Sylar: That sounds like a plan I'd come up with back in the day.
04x19 - Brave New World Season 4 / Episode 19: - Brave New World

Sylar: Peter - your dream said I save her. Trust me.
04x19 - Brave New World Season 4 / Episode 19: - Brave New World

Peter Petrelli: [on Claire] What the hell does she think she's doing? She's gonna change everything.
Sylar: That's right. It's a brave new world.
04x18 - The Wall Season 4 / Episode 18: - The Wall

Sylar: [on Emma] It's time to face reality, Peter, that girl is gone, and if she was meant to kill thousands, they're dead too. Everybody's dead except us.
Peter Petrelli: The only thing that's *real* is us.
04x18 - The Wall Season 4 / Episode 18: - The Wall

Sylar: You wanna know something weird? Every time you pick that thing up I think you're gonna hit me with it really hard.
Peter Petrelli: [chuckles] That *is* weird, because every time I pick it up I feel like I'm gonna hit you with it too - really hard.
Sylar: Why?
Peter Petrelli: Because you are who you are. I wish I could accept your apologies, but if I f-forgive you, then I'm not doing right by him.
Sylar: Nathan... If you let go of your anger, you're afraid you'll lose him forever? So you've held on to it this entire time?
Peter Petrelli: I feel it slipping away, but... then I look at you, and I see you killing him. You took my brother away from me.
04x18 - The Wall Season 4 / Episode 18: - The Wall

Sylar: I can't bring Nathan back, Peter. But I can sure as hell swing a sledgehammer.
04x18 - The Wall Season 4 / Episode 18: - The Wall

Sylar: We've been here for I don't know how many years. Together. I've changed, I've repented. I'm never gonna hurt anyone ever again. And all this time, you were afraid to let me out.


Sylar: Peter!


Sylar: I'm not that guy anymore, Peter, you know that.
Peter Petrelli: I know. I know you're not.

04x18 - The Wall Season 4 / Episode 18: - The Wall

Sylar: How long has it been, really?
Peter Petrelli: [checks his watch] Half a day, maybe.
Sylar: Feels like we were in there for years.
Peter Petrelli: Yeah.
Sylar: Does that make it any less real?
04x17 - The Art of Deception Season 4 / Episode 17: - The Art of Deception

Sylar: Maybe you need a little more motivation. You will purge me of these powers, Parkman, or I will use them. I will use them all. And trust me, I can get really creative.
04x17 - The Art of Deception Season 4 / Episode 17: - The Art of Deception

Matt Parkman: How am I supposed to do that?
Sylar: Create a mental block, repress them, I don't really care, to be honest. All I know is that once I'm free from the temptation of my ability...
Matt Parkman: M-hm? You're gonna be normal? I'm sorry, that ship sailed, what, fifty murders ago?
04x17 - The Art of Deception Season 4 / Episode 17: - The Art of Deception

Sylar: I really do wanna change. But I'm insane - remember? And all I have to do is point.
04x17 - The Art of Deception Season 4 / Episode 17: - The Art of Deception

Matt Parkman: [referring to Janice] If you hurt her, I swear to God...
Sylar: That's the problem, isn't it? One cruel thought is all it takes. These powers make it so easy.
Matt Parkman: I understand that, believe me. But you don't have to use them like this.
Sylar: Except I do. The powers are me now. You've been there, dealt with the abilities, the constant temptation. Tell me, how do you compartmentalize? How do you keep them from overwhelming the rest of your life?
Matt Parkman: You start by accepting the fact that... you're more than just your abilities. Come on, we're people first.
04x17 - The Art of Deception Season 4 / Episode 17: - The Art of Deception

Matt Parkman: I know exactly what scares you, Gabriel. And it's being alone with your immortality.
Sylar: What did you do to me?
Matt Parkman: I have trapped you inside your twisted mind. You're gonna be alone, Sylar, very much alone, in this nightmare that will last forever. And the best part about it is that when I leave here, you're not gonna remember what I did, and you're gonna live every empty day like it's real.
Sylar: You said you would help me.
Matt Parkman: Yeah, well, I guess there's still a little of you left inside me. Because I lied.


Matt Parkman: Enjoy hell.
04x16 - Pass/Fail Season 4 / Episode 16: - Pass/Fail

Sylar: The indestructible girl, who can't put herself out there to get hurt.
04x16 - Pass/Fail Season 4 / Episode 16: - Pass/Fail

Claire Bennet: You're gonna slice my head open again?
Sylar: I've evolved way beyond that. My friend Lydia gave me a much more precise instrument. She could read someone, just by touching them - see into the very depths of their soul. Of course, her methods were a little hyper-erotic but... Oh, what the hell. It is college, isn't it?
04x16 - Pass/Fail Season 4 / Episode 16: - Pass/Fail

Sylar: I don't wanna be alone. And somehow, you're supposed to help me.
Claire Bennet: I wouldn't help you if my life depended on it.
Sylar: It's not your life you should be concerned about.
04x16 - Pass/Fail Season 4 / Episode 16: - Pass/Fail

Claire Bennet: I get it. Okay, we have a few arbitrary things in common. What is your point?
Sylar: My point is, they're not arbitrary. They're formative. The basic building blocks of our lives; and we have the same blocks. Yet here we are - content college co-ed... and me. How did we end up so different?
Claire Bennet: You want to know what the difference is? You're a psychopath! Mystery solved.
04x14 - Let It Bleed Season 4 / Episode 14: - Let It Bleed

Sylar: Been a while since my body and mind were together. Be a crisis for a lesser man having your soul ripped out of you, but not for me. I returned, with one simple, singular thought...
Samuel Sullivan: I know, wait, don't tell me. Fun.
Sylar: Feast!

04x14 - Let It Bleed Season 4 / Episode 14: - Let It Bleed

Samuel Sullivan: I got big plans for you. Kill me now and you'll never know what could be.
Sylar: Everybody has big plans for me. I think that's all people have.
04x14 - Let It Bleed Season 4 / Episode 14: - Let It Bleed

Sylar: Hello, cheerleader.
04x12 - The Fifth Stage Season 4 / Episode 12: - The Fifth Stage

Sylar: Listen, Peter. I'm pretty disappointed in you. Your plan was to syringe me in the neck with drugs. Wasn't that the old plan? I mean, don't get me wrong, congrats for... pulling it off in the first place. But fool me twice, you know?
Peter Petrelli: [coming from behind] Yeah, I know.

04x11 - Thanksgiving Season 4 / Episode 11: - Thanksgiving

Sylar: [getting his body back] It feels good to finally be me again. What's for dinner? I'm starved.
04x11 - Thanksgiving Season 4 / Episode 11: - Thanksgiving

Sylar: [to Angela] You have raised the evil incarnate bar to an entirely new level. Thank you, for giving me something to strive for.
04x11 - Thanksgiving Season 4 / Episode 11: - Thanksgiving

Sylar: I am not a religious man. But there is one thing I do believe in: blood. Time to carve the turkey.
04x10 - Brother's Keeper Season 4 / Episode 10: - Brother's Keeper

Sylar: Good things do come to those who wait.
04x10 - Brother's Keeper Season 4 / Episode 10: - Brother's Keeper

Sylar: I don't have time for all the five stages of grief. Let's go right from denial to acceptance.
04x09 - Shadowboxing Season 4 / Episode 9: - Shadowboxing

Matt Parkman: You just killed him!
Sylar: No, I didn't. You did.
04x09 - Shadowboxing Season 4 / Episode 9: - Shadowboxing

Matt Parkman: He was helping you.
Sylar: Exactly. In his death, he has helped me prove a point about the line.
Matt Parkman: What line?
Sylar: The one I can cross, and you can't. The one that says I can do anything I want, like killing people in cold blood.
Matt Parkman: No, you can't just...
Sylar: The world is my hostage, Matt. Anybody. Anytime.
04x09 - Shadowboxing Season 4 / Episode 9: - Shadowboxing

Sylar: Sucks, doesn't it? Being in the passenger seat of your own life?
