Westworld quotes

  • Dr. Robert Ford: The hosts are the ones who are free. Free. Here. Under my control.

  • Dolores Abernathy: [to Stubbs] Some people choose to see the ugliness in this world, the disarray. I choose to see the Beauty. To believe there is an order to our days. A purpose. I know things will work out the way they're meant to.
