passing next to some robots in a luthor base:

Wonder Girl: Gar, stop bothering the killer robots.
Beast Boy: Coming.

Underworld Unleashed:

*The Trickster's inner monologue as he notices the villains on hand, gathered by Neron*

Oh, nice going, Neron. Pick the one guy no one wants to be in the same room with. When super-villains want to scare each other, they tell Joker stories.
 
From Arkham Asylum

Mad Hatter(to Batman): Arkham is the looking glass and we are you.

Batman(after throwing an axe at Joker's feet): You're all free.
Joker: Oh, we know that but what about you.

Two-Face: The moon is a big silver dollar flipped by God. Look, it landed scarred side up and so he made the world.

Very nice. :D

I'll see if I can find something. In the meantime


From Starman"

Ted Knight - You're wearing that T-Shirt. The one you know I don't like.



Jack Knight -Yeah, i know. I forgot. Sorry, dad.

Ted Knight - .....Well, at least it was nothing malicious.

Jack Knight - I wasn't trying to get my old man riled. No, I have a lot on my mind. I forgot...you know how that can happen if anyone does.

Ted Knight - Yes, son. I know. I know.

Jack Knight - Dad, I'm Starman. Right? You say it. I'm....beginng...once in a blue moon at night, am beginning to say it myself even.

Ted Knight - That's good to hear.

Jack Knight - But if I am, and there are certain...shadows...secrets..in the past of Starman's lineage, I should be told them, shouldn't I? How do I know that this knowledge...being forewarned of it..won't save my life one day?

Ted Knight - I'll admit, you have a point.

Jack Knight - Then what is it? It's something that happened in your past, and this T-shirt, the symbol on it, it's all linked somehow, yeah? I should know dad...............................Dad? Are you listening?

Ted Knight - (Sigh) Yes, i'm listening. And I suppose i'm agreeing, too. It's just that...the event..there's...do you know what that image is on the T-shirt?

Many don't. They think it's Raggedy Ann or the Scarecrow from the Oz books. They wear the thing, oblivious. I stopped a woman once who had her little daughter wearing one for heaven's sake.

Jack Knight - I know, Dad. It's the Ragdoll. The costumed Villain. "Opal City's Charlie Manson" as he was called. But that's all past. His face...it doesn't meean anything. It's become a pop icon. No one remembers the facts or cares to. Like Manson. Axel Rose wore his face on a T-shirt in a video. It's just a hip image. Nothing more.

Ted Knight - Oh, there was more. i was there. I remember, and if that's your attitude, perhaps you should indeed be told. The Ragdoll. A petty thug turned killing messiah. The moment he started preaching his mad drivel, the followers gathered. The crimes they committed in his name....were savage and audacious and most without logic. August was a b***h, as I recall. Innocent blood ran in this city.

Jack Knight - When was this dad?

Ted Knight - Thirteen years gone.



The situation grew to a head with the slaughter of that actor and his family. There were the kid-napped twins...little girls..they'd been gone for days. And the Ragdoll's gang was building up..preparing for some big, violent event. I never did find out exactly what, come to think of it.

The city was scared. You could taste and smell it. The Fear. I didn't want that. Not for Opal. My friends came in. There were five of us. Jay, Allen, Rex, Chuck, and me.

Chuck and Rex went off into the night. they fought the Ragdoll's minions. Chuck found the twins. Saved them. And Rex...He fought an army. That night he was a God. Son, I was so proud of him...proud to know him.

Jay, Allen, and Myself, we went in search of Ragdoll. We had a lead. We knew where we thought he might be. And sure enough, we found him there.

Jack Knight - So? What? Yeah, you found him?

Ted Knight - He said he'd rule his minions from prison. He said he'd have Joan killed...Jay's wife, this is. Allen had employees, and me...He knew who I had. He said he'd have you killed, Jack. You and your brother.

Jack Knight - So, what happened?

Ted Knight It wasn't as cold-blooded as it might sound, what we ultimately did. there was confusion. Danger. Not much time to think. But....(sigh)...we killed him, in the end. that's what it boils down to.

I've Lived in shame for a lot of things Jack. You know how I helped make the A-Bomb. You know all the times i've been in Sanitariums. Well, now you can add this to the list.

{Jack Stairs at Starman Statue}

Ted Knight - Jack, I have work to do. Michael's in his room sleeping, but i'd like to run more tests on him in a while. Would you mind leaving? I'd like some time alone.

Jack Knight Sure, dad. Sure. I...I.. And i'll burn the shirt when I get home.

Hey pop,I got a new recipe for steamed crab in ginger and garlic. How about in a day or two you come over and i'll cook it? You can make fun of all the old stuff i have in my apartment. I can get mad and yell at you. It'll be like old times. Bring Michael too?

Ted Knight - That...err..yes, i'd like that.

Jack Knight - 'Kay, i'll buzz you in the A.M. bout it. Dad...one last thing. I promised Myself i'd never kill again...after I snuffed Davey's Killer. But..if I learned someone threatened you with death..if I thought they were serious and they had a chance of succeeding...i'd break my promise in an opal city heart beat.
 
"My mom made it for me."
Superman : for all seasons. :up:
wonder girl: ...wait a second... you just LIED to STARFIRE?!
robin: I lie to BATMAN
I remember this one. It's excellent. One of the few I can remember without re-treading the book.
 
Wars are never won, regardless of who might be the victor. The very act of war is itself a horrible defeat.
- Green Lantern #127

In this world, there is right and there is wrong, and that distinction is not difficult to make.
- Kingdom Come #3

..nobody's got so many friends that he can afford to start losin' 'em.
- Avengers #88
 
I've always liked Batman and Darkseid's interaction from the Supergirl arc.

Darkseid: I could DESTROY you with a single blast of my Omega Beams
Batman: Yes. But that would not stop the bombs.
Darkseid: You WILL disarm the lot.
Batman: Release the girl -- and give your word to leave her be.

*Darkseid slams Batman up against a wall*

Batman: Disavow Kara Zor-El......Say. It.
Darkseid: Well played.
 
I'll see if I can find something. In the meantime

That gave me nightmares about the original Ragdoll. Good quote.
 
But when they showed what happened that night later on in the series, it made the original Hourman one of my all time favs.

HA HA HA HA! I'm sorry sometime I just kill me...especially when I think about killing you.- The Joker
 
I did once consider resigning from my position in the Wayne Household.
"I need a disguise" he said and I thought he'd finally gone mad with grief especially those next words... "I shall become a Bat".
But when I saw what meant, when I watched how he surrendered himself to an ideal. How he used each heartache and failure, to become a better man, in the service of others.
What could I do but stand in humble awe? And keep his wounds clean and his uniform tidy and send him safely on his way.
"Alfred" he said not long ago. "If anyone asks for an obituary, tell them Batman's big secret was the classic whodunnit."
"Only, its not about who killed Batman but who kept him alive all these years."
And he stopped there, leaving the rest to me.
The Whereabouts of Batman remain unknown.
And yes I can see him now, in the grip of implacable forces, innumerable foes. Somewhere without hope. In a place where all seems lost. And I know this...
The enemy will look away for just a moment, underestimating him for that single fraction of a second to long
And no matter how dark the night...
There will be no hiding place for evil.
 
What is that from its AMAZING!

I've been pretty lukewarm on RIP, but that speech made the whole damn thing worthwhile. I hope it ends up at the end of Batman 3 somehow. :woot:
