Kerry Washington: Olivia Pope

Quotes 

• Olivia Pope : The truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a while, but it's not gonna go away.

• Olivia Pope : You're not going to die.

  Jake Ballard : [sitting on the floor badly beaten]  I think your father might disagree with you about that. Not to mention the President of the United States. He thinks I'm guilty, and I'm sure you do, too. So, I could sit here and rattle on about being framed, and your father being behind the whole thing. But, really, that's just my word, and why should you trust my word? I've been lying to you ever since we met, right? My word is not going to change anything. It can't. We both know, in the end, you're not going to choose me. And that's okay. Olivia, I want you to know I need you to know Not choosing me is okay.
