Lisa Winters : I've been going to church. I've been going a lot. It really helps.
Cody Winters : What helps?
Lisa Winters : God. You should let him help you.
Cody Winters : Nah, that's alright. Glad you found hope, though. Just don't make God another man that you abandoned your children for.

Lisa Winters : [referring to her son Cody] He actually said that he'd prefer to be in prison than be in my house. Yeah. I don't blame him.

Lisa Winters : [to Jashaun] Did you know I was born left handed? The nuns, they didn't like it. And so they made me right handed, right? It's a sign of evil. And I really had a hard time learning to tie my shoes. The day I learned how to tie my shoes, I was so happy. And I ran home. "Mom, I can tie my shoes!" It smelled like beer and she just, uh, looked at me and said, "Oh." That was the moment that I knew that I had to take care of my little sister. I was gonna have to be the grownup. And I don't want that for you. I don't. I don't. I'm sorry. I love you so much.
