Clark Kent: Lana, I always thought that if I ever did meet my mother, she wouldn't live up to the idea that I had of her. But she did.
Lana Lang: Clark, I will never be as strong as your mother. And after everything I've done, I'm not sure I'm as good a person as you deserve.
Clark Kent: Lana, we all make mistakes. I'm living proof of that. It's how we come back from the mistakes that's what matters.
Lana Lang: How do you come back when you feel like you're at the point of no return?
Clark Kent: Lana, look at everything you went through to help my mother. You're not that far gone.
