He said: 'I give you a mausoleum of all hope and desire which will fit your individual needs, no better than it did mine and my father before me. I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you may forget it. For a moment, now and then, and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it.'", a nod to all five titles.
Bloopers[]
- In the scene immediately following the opening credits, there are two dead walkers on the ground. The one on the right can clearly be seen breathing.

Quotes[]
- Abraham Ford: I am a large man, and I have had many beers to make up for that.
....
- Rick Grimes: We need to do it sooner or later. Right now they're not watching us. Not worrying about meetings like this. We may need the guns, we may not.
- Carol Peletier: We will whatever way it goes.
- Rick Grimes: They're the luckiest damn people I ever met. And they just keep getting luckier.
- Daryl Dixon: How's that?
- Rick Grimes: We're here now.
....
- Aaron: I know you're feeling like an outsider. It's not your fault, you know. Eric and I, we're still looked at as outsiders in a lot of ways. We've heard our fair share of well-meaning, but hilariously offensive things from some otherwise really nice men and women. People are people. The more afraid they get, the more stupid they get. Fear shrinks the brain. They're scared of you and me for different reasons. They're less scared of me because they know me. It's less and less every day. So, let them get to know you.
....
- Rick Grimes: I don't know if this is some kind of play, handing authority to strangers.
- Michonne: The authority to break up fistfights.
- Rick Grimes: If it was just that, she should've given one of these to Daryl.
- Michonne: I don't know if it's for us or for them. Or maybe Deanna's trying to get rid of us and them. You put these jackets on me and you, have the people see it. If that's the play that'd be smart. And she seems smart.
- Rick Grimes: Smart for then or smart for now?
- Michonne: This is now.
