The Dark Knight

"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

"Why so serious?"

"Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos."

"I'm an agent of chaos."

"I’m like a dog chasing cars. I wouldn’t know what to do with one if I caught it."

"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

"The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming."

"Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded."

"Because he’s the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now."

"A silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight."

"Some men just want to watch the world burn."

"Madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push."

"Nobody panics when things go according to plan, even if the plan is horrifying!"

"You complete me."

"The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules."

"Whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you… stranger."

"I won’t kill you, but I don’t have to save you."

"You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with."

"This city just showed you that it’s full of people ready to believe in good."

"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

"Don't let me find you out here again."

"Former patient at Arkham - the kind of mind the Joker attracts."

"What do you expect to learn from him?"

"You're the symbol of hope I could never be."

"Your stand against organized crime is the first legitimate ray of light in Gotham in decades."

"If anyone saw this, everything would be undone."

"All the criminals you pulled off the streets would be released, and Jim Gordon will have died for nothing."

"You're going to hold a press conference, tomorrow morning."

"No one else will die because of me."

"That deep down, everyone's as ugly as you?"

"I hear you've got a hell of a right cross."

"Official policy is to arrest the vigilante know as "Batman" on sight."

"If you have problems with malfunctioning equipment, I suggest you take them up with maintenance, counselor."

"In this town, the fewer people know something, the safer the operation."

"If I didn't work with cops you'd investigated while you were making your name at I."

"I don't get political points for being an idealist."

"I have to do the best I can with what I have."

"I can give you the names of the banks."

"Harvey, I need to know which of my men I can trust."

"All tactical units will converge on the location in twenty minutes."

"You wanna know how I got these scars?"

"My father was a drinker, and a fiend."

"And one night, he goes off crazier than usual."

"Mommy gets the kitchen knife to defend herself."

"So, me watching, he takes the knife to her, laughing while he does it."

"He turns to me, and he says, "Why so serious?""

"He comes at me with the knife: "Why so serious?""

"He sticks the blade in my mouth: "Let's put a smile on that face!""

"To them, you're just a freak, like me."

"They need you right now, but when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper."

"If you can tell me the Russian for "Apply your own bloody suntan lotion.""

"You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation, and in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand."

"With respect, Master Wayne, perhaps this is a man you don't fully understand either."

"A long time ago, I was in Burma."

"My friends and I were working for the local government."

"They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones, but their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit."

"So we went looking for the stones, but in six months, we never met anyone who traded with him."

"One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine."

"Well, because he thought it was good sport."

"Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money."
