Jennifer Jareau: Queen Elizabeth I said, "The past cannot be cured."

Emily Prentiss: [speaking to the Senate Committee about the BAU's recent actions] The only people I know who could accomplish that mission just walked out. They do their jobs with integrity, and, most importantly, they honor their oath: "I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter.
