“I'm a spy, Cam. I was born to do this- to be this. It's in my blood. And I will do it until the day I die. It's who I am… The thing is I don't think you realise is… it's who you are too.”

“Your memory is your first and best weapon, ladies. Learn to use it.”

“Oh you’re heist-drunk Kitty Kat. And you have been since the Henley.”

“In a place where everyone knew my story, it was nice to know there was a chapter that ONLY I HAD TO READ. :)”

“Talent Katerina is a dangerous thing”

“Someday you will know that the heart is not always as wise as it is strong. - Uncle Eddie”

“What are they after?” Kat asked.

“The reason I wasn’t flirting with you,” Hale told her.”

"With your first being…" Kat prompted.

“So, your dad's hot."
"Thanks. He was that way when I met him, so I can't really take credit.”

“Of course. Because at the Gallagher Academy, "precautions" usually equals "voluntary shock therapy.”
