Vince: I want to talk about how the Lions are going to win State.

Reporter: Is that a promise?

Vince: It’s a fact.

Julie: My Dad must’ve flipped when you asked him.

Matt: What do you mean?

Julie: When you asked his permission.

Matt: What? I thought that was an old wives’ tale.

Landry: Don’t mention that you work in an art gallery – it’s not real assuring to a football coach.

Landry: You know what the crazy thing is? A few years ago you and I were figuring out how to talk to Julie. Now you’re gonna marry her! So this is a little roadblock.

Tim (to Stevie): Boosters: they could be your worst enemy or your best friend.

Tim: You getting yourself another ring this year, aren’t you?

Coach Taylor: Got a damn good chance.

Coach Taylor: Matt Saracen asked for your daughter’s hand in marriage today.

Tami: Julie?

Coach Taylor: No, Gracie!

Coach Taylor: Marriage requires maturity. Marriage requires two people that will listen,  really listen to each other. Marriage most of all requires compromise.

Tami: It’s my turn babe. I have loved you and you have loved me and we have compromised, both of us, for your job, and now it’s time to talk about doing that for my job because otherwise what am I going to tell our daughter.

Becky: I’m finally over my crush. So what do you say, friends?

Tim: I’d say family.

Tim: I have dreams too. I’m going to build a house exactly where we’re sitting and I’ll get a job. And I’m never going to do anything illegal for the rest of my life. Guarantee it. Maybe one day our dreams can merge together.

Coach Taylor (hands Vince’s dad the ticket to State): A young man gets a chance at that maybe once in a lifetime.

Julie: You guys think I’m gonna drop out of college or something and that’s not me. This is about me getting to marry my best friend, and you can trust me.

Tami: We do trust you and we want you to be happy.

Tyra: I can’t do this again with you. I’ve got plans.

Tim: I don’t.

Jess: I’m moving to Dallas after this semester so I won’t be joining your super team after all. Being a part of the Lions has been the greatest experience of my life.

Coach Taylor: I think it’s been mine too.

Coach Taylor (to Tami): I turned the contract down. Will you take me to Philadelphia with you, please?

Coach Taylor: You may never know how proud I am of you.

Vince: You changed my life, Coach.

Coach Taylor: Dear Heavenly Father, keep us and protect us tonight. Please let us use the talents you have given us to the best of our ability as a family. As one.

Coach Taylor: We’ve got a long way to go, gentlemen. A long way to go. And you know what? I’m looking forward to it.

Coach Taylor: Clear eyes, full hearts…….well, we’ll work on the rest later.

Tami: They’d like to replace the current dean with me and I would like to do it.

Eric: Well that’s in Philadelphia.

Tami: Yeah.

Eric: That’s a long commute.

Tami: We’d have to move there.

Eric: We live in Texas.

Billy: What are you gonna do in Alaska? Sleep with some woodchucks?
Tim: They don’t have woodchucks.

Billy: Well moose then?

Tim: You’re going to State, right?

Luke: Yeah.

Tim: It’s never gonna be bigger than that. Play it like that. Lace up like it’s the last game you’ll ever play. And then move on. That’s the best advice I can give you.

Tyra: (Discussing Dillon) It’s kind of like this drug: when you get outside of it, you see it for what it really is. But when you’re in it, seems like there’s no other possible reality.

Julie: It’s a hard place to shake.

Tyra: Yeah. I didn’t see that coming.

Tyra (to Tim): I can’t imagine how much you love Billy to do what you did for him. So are you ready to lose him? Because he’s your family. He’s your only family. Not a lot of people believed in you Tim, but he did.

Tami: I could use a little support!

Eric: I’m taking you to the airport!

Tami: Like I’ve done for you a million times!

Eric: (sits in silence for a bit)…Did you get the window seat?

Tami: Don’t try to change the subject!

Eric: Well you’re kicking my ass!

Tim: Your pregnant wife is stripping, your son is being bottle fed by another stripper and you’re on your seventh beer.

Billy: You won’t hear me complain!

Coach Taylor: You feel that? There are about 5,000 people out there and they wanna take your dream away from you. You gonna let them take this dream away from us?
Lions: NO, SIR.
Coach Taylor: Are you gonna let our dreams be taken away?!
Lions: NO, SIR.
Coach Taylor: As one, gentlemen. Dear Lord, please allow these young men to safely pursue the height of their excellence tonight, and as a family, allow them to achieve their goals with the gifts with which you have blessed us. Amen.
Lions: AMEN.
Coach Taylor: Now, let’s go kick some ass!

Buddy: We’re in a fight here to keep Coach Eric Taylor.

Levi: You got all that from a crate of oranges?

Buddy: A man can’t leave if you erect a statue in his honor.

Levi: Of Coach Taylor?

Buddy: How about a plaque?

Levi: You got the money for that?

Buddy: I could get the money for a plaque.

Tinker: Coach, you going to Florida?
Coach Taylor: No Tinker, I’m actually going home, and you should too.

Coach Taylor (to Vince): You’re gonna have to work your way back. We don’t play hard to get you offers.

Coach Taylor (At Tim’s parole hearing): I’m a high school football coach, and I don’t think there’s a better job to judge the content of a young man.

Buddy (At Tim’s parole hearing): I’ve known this young man since before he hit puberty, and this young man has done a lot of things wrong. I’ve seen him do a dozen things wrong, but let me tell you something right now, he is not a bad young man, and he’s certainty not a criminal. He doesn’t need to be in this system. He dated my daughter for years, and we took him in like family. So he’s like family to me, and I can tell you this kid right here has got more heart than almost any person I know. And I can promise you that when you let him out, he will have a full time job working for me, and I can guarantee you that nothing like this will ever happen again. You have my word on that. It’s time for you to let Tim Riggins come home.

Regina: You’ve been on his back all week – all month! He needs a father, O! Not an agent!

Coach Taylor: It’s a hell of an offer. I’d own that program. Excellent funding. Actual recruitment dollars.

Coach Taylor: You know what I want more than anything? I want to take these kids to state. That’s what I want. They deserve it.

(Vince was just interviewed on the local news)
Vince: What, you didn’t like it?
Jess: Nah, it was cool, but you barely talked about anyone but yourself. I mean, you got a whole team out there…

(Hastings as a news anchor while Luke mocks Vince)
Hastings: Oh, there he is, the golden child Vince Howard. Tell us how you slaughtered the Panthers.
Luke: I threw the ball to myself, I caught it in the end zone, and then I kicked the extra point with my gold-plated schlong.

Buddy: It’s a hairline fracture. Why can’t they give us a simple answer? Either it’s broken or it’s not. And obviously it’s broken.

Luke: Becky, look, I like you so much, alright? When you want to go out give me a call, okay? Or email me, or send me a postcard from the post office…or carrier pigeon.

Mindy’s friend: Becky, when you win you have to sneak into your boyfriend’s room wearing only your tiara!

Mindy: Listen: life is gonna throw a bunch of crap at you, but all you can do is put it in the past and leave it there.
