Quotes from westworld

Robert Ford: So our creatures have been misbehaving, and you haven't yet isolated the bug? That's so unlike you, Bernard. Unless, of course, you have and are simply embarrassed by the result.
Bernard Lowe: It's the code you added, sir. The reveries. It has some, uh...
Robert Ford: "Mistakes" is the word you're too embarrassed to use. You ought not to be. You're a product of a trillion of them. Evolution forged the entirety of sentient life on this planet using only one tool: the mistake.
Bernard Lowe: I flattered myself we were taking a more disciplined approach here. I suppose self-delusion is a gift of natural selection as well.
Robert Ford: Indeed it is. But, of course, we've managed to slip evolution's leash now, haven't we?

It means that we're done. That this is as good as we're going to get. It also means that you must indulge me the occasional mistake.
Bernard Lowe[lighting her cigarette] QA will fine you for this. And that woman in charge is quite formidable.
Theresa Cullen: You can just say "bitch." I hear it enough.
Robert Ford: "The coward dies a thousand deaths. The valiant taste of death but once." Of course, Shakespeare never met a man quite like you, Teddy. You've died at least a thousand times. And yet, it doesn't dull your courage. Tell me, is that all you aspire to, Teddy?
Teddy Flood: There's a girl, Dolores. Better than I deserve. But maybe someday soon we'll have the life we've both been dreaming of.
Robert Ford: No, you never will. Your job is not to protect Dolores, it's to keep her here, to ensure that the guests find her if they want to best the stalwart gunslinger and have their way with his girl. Tell me, has it never occurred to you to run off with her?
Teddy Flood: I got some reckoning to do before I can be with her.
Robert Ford: Ah, yes, your mysterious backstory. It's the reason for my visit
