Will Grimm

 * I made that armour! It's not magic... it's just shiny.
 * It seems that the music has turned horribly French.
 * Miss Krauss, perhaps you don't realize who we are. We're the Brothers Grimm, the men who vanquished the mill witch of Karlstadt, the frog boy of Glutenhof, and the cannibal chef of the Schwarzwald in the gingerbread house of terror.

The Mirror Queen

 * Truth is much more terrible than fiction.
 * What a beautiful bedtime story this will be!
 * Who's the fairest of them all?

 * Will Grimm: [getting angry] Bring back her sisters? [he kicks Jacob] Bring them back? Bring them back with what? Magic beans?
 * Jacob Grimm: Why do you say that?
 * Will Grimm: Magic beans don't work! They don't bring people back to life! They did not then and they will not now!
