Quotes 

• Ben Linus : You've been on this island for 80 days, I've lived here my entire life. What makes you think you know this island better than I do?

  John Locke : Because you're in the wheelchair, and I'm not.

• John Locke : Where did you get electricity?

  Ben Linus : We have two giant hamsters running in a massive wheel in our secret underground lair.

  John Locke : That's funny.

• Ben Linus : Picture a box. You know something about boxes, don't you, John? What if I told you that somewhere on this island there's a very large box and whatever you imagined, whatever you wanted to be in it, when you opened that box there it would be. What would you say about that, John?

  Locke : I'd say, "I hope that box is big enough to imagine yourself up a new submarine."

• John Locke : Man from Tallahassee? What is that? Some kind of code?

  Ben Linus : No, John, unfortunately we don't have a code for "There is a man in my closet with a gun to my daughter's head" although we obviously should.

• Locke : The Man from Tallahassee, what is that? Some kind of code?

  Henry Gale : No, John, unfortunately, we don't have a code for 'there's a man in my closet with a gun to my daughter's head.' Although, we obviously should.
