Quotes

Meg:I had a sister. A little sister. She worshipped me. You know how little siblings are, right? How they'll do anything for you? She was never the same after I disappeared. She just got...lost.
Meg: You saw how I suffered for months. I thought you must have learned something. I thought I died for something. But what you're doing with that demon, Ruby? How many innocent bodies has Ruby burned through for kicks? How many girls just like me? And you don't send her back to Hell? You're a monster!
Sam: You built a panic room??

Bobby: I had a weekend off.

Dean: Bobby, you're awesome.
Castiel: The rising of the Witnesses is one of the 66 seals.
Dean: I’m guessing that’s not a show at SeaWorld.


Castiel: You should show me some respect. I dragged you out of Hell. I can throw you back in.
