- Hudson: Must you humans name everything? Nothing's real to you 'til you've named it, given it limits.
- Elisa Maza: It's not like that. It's just that, well... uh... things need names.
- Hudson: Does the sky need a name? Does the river?
- Elisa Maza: The river's called the Hudson.
- Hudson: Fine, lass. Then I will be the Hudson as well.
- Elisa Maza: [chuckling as she's walking in the park with Goliath] We're probably the only couple in the park who don't have to worry about muggers.
- Elisa Maza: [after Hudson leaves] Well looks like it's just you and me. So what do you want to see?
- Goliath: The dangers that threaten me and my kind.
- Elisa Maza: Lighten up, will you. You're starting to bring me down and I'm a cop.
- David Xanatos: The truth is that my men repelled an invasion by a rival corporation trying to steal some of our new technology.
- Elisa Maza: "Repelled an invasion"? You're a private citizen, Xanatos. Not a country.
- Goliath: [after rescuing two-would be victims from a gang, the couple runs from Goliath] Human gratitude?
- Elisa Maza: I guess... You know Goliath, you could be the *best* thing to happen to the city in a long time.
- Goliath: I see no walls to guard this city. How do you protect it from invaders?
- Elisa Maza: Well our biggest worries aren't from outside, they're from inside.
- Goliath: *That* I'm all *too* familiar with.
- Elisa Maza: Who... what are you?
- Goliath: My kind have no names, but you humans call me Goliath.
- Elisa Maza: Your kind? You mean there's more than one of you?
- Goliath: [deep breath] Barely.
