Quotes[]

  • Rick Grimes: They - they're all dead.
  • Sasha Williams: Yeah. I know. And it's okay.
  • Rick Grimes: How can it be okay? How can - How can this be okay?
  • Sasha Williams: Because you did your part. Like I did mine. Like the others did before us.
  • Rick Grimes: How?
  • Sasha Williams: They gave us the strength that we needed. To do what we had to do for the others. And the others draw strength from us. We change each other. We help each other. We make each other better. And it never ends.
  • Rick Grimes: It feels like it's the ending.
  • Sasha Williams: Little things do end. But it's never the end of everything. Because we don't die. It's not about you or me or any one of us. It's about all of us. And I don't think it just evens out. I think it always crosses over. Toward the good. Toward the brave. Toward love... Your family - You're not going to find them, because they're not lost. And you are not lost. What you need to do is -- wake up.
