"This would be a good death... But not good enough."

"This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle--broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would... But I'm a man of thirty--of twenty again. The rain on my chest is a baptism. I'm born again."

"It was tough work, carrying two hundred and twenty pounds of sociopath to the top of Gotham Towers--the highest spot in the city. The scream alone is worth it."

"I'll count the dead, one by one. I'll ad them to the list, Joker. The list of all the people I've murdered by letting you live."

"No, Joker. You're playing the wrong game. The old game. Tonight you're taking no hostages. Tonight I'm taking no prisoners."

"The Dump. It's a breeding ground for rodents. Some rodents fly."

"I want you to remember my hand at your throat. I want you to remember the one man who beat you."

"This will be a good life. Good enough."

"We could have changed the world. Now... look at us... I've become a political liability and you... You're a joke."

"Did I finally reach the limits of reason? And find the Devil waiting? And was that fear in his eye?"

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

"And as the sun, that had been too afraid to show its face in this city, started to turn the black into grey, I smiled. Not out of happiness. But because I knew... that one day, I wouldn't have to do this anymore. One day, I could stop fighting. Because one day... I would win. One day, there will be no pain, no loss, no crime. Because of me, because I fight. For you. One day, I will win."
