15 Life Quotes As Told By Dexter Morgan

There is no doubt in my mind that anyone who has ever watched "Dexter" could find the power in their heart to stop after one, two, or even after the fifth season, of this glorious show. The main character, Dexter Morgan, can be considered anyone's alter ego. Even if he isn't, his wit, sarcasm and blunt honesty makes him one of the most relatable characters in television. Here are fifteen memorable life quotes spoken by the genius himself:

1. "Me, feeling. What a concept."

2. "If home is where the heart is, where do you go when you don't have a heart?"

3. "I don't do my job to catch the bad guys. Why would I want to do that? No, my job is to make order out of chaos."

4. "A man can only take so much. Even a phony man like me."

5. "How bad could things be if my hair was neat?"

6. "It's okay. Life doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be lived."

7. "They make it look easy, connecting with another human being. It's like no one told them it's the hardest thing in the world."

8. "I had killed out careful relationship by driving my tongue through its heart and pushing it off a cliff."

9. Why do so many people start their messages with, "It's me." Of course it is you. We all know that. But who the hell are you?"

10. "We create our own destiny every day we live."

11. "Anybody can be charming if they don't mind faking it, saying all of the stupid, obvious, nauseating things that a conscience keeps most people from saying. Happily, I don't have a conscience, I say them."

12. "I love Halloween. The one time of the year when everyone wears a mask, not just me."

13. "I can always see other people's problems more clearly than my own."

14. "It's like, everything really is two ways: the way we all pretend it is and the way it really is."

15. "I did not like this feeling of having feelings."


No matter bold, dark, and insensitive his beliefs are, at some point in our lives, we have all felt as such. Dexter Morgan is quite the character and his evolution throughout the eight seasons was amazingly unexpected.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
