View Quote [to Katherine] I’m sorry, but, I’m going to have to call you on that. It’s bullshit. That’s what everyone has been saying. “You’ll get better” and “It’ll be fine”. I don’t know why everyone is so **** scared to say it. “You’re dying, dude”...It makes it worse.

View Quote Lampwick: Hey, Slats, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. How come you didn't bust any of them cuckoo clocks? Any real kid would love to smash those clocks.
Pinocchio: It just didn't feel right.
Lampwick: [laughs] Listen to Mr. Goody Two-Shoes. Well, I guess you ain't transformed into a complete jerk yet. [chuckles]
Pinocchio: I don't want to be a jerk. I want to be a real boy.
Lampwick: [scoffs] The way you're going, you might make it to half a real boy. It looks to me like you still got a conscience inside of you.
[Jiminy chirps into the billiard hall]
Pinocchio: I wish I still did had a conscience.
Jiminy: Pinocchio!

View Quote [As Pinocchio and Jiminy return home during sunrise, they look through the window to see that Geppetto isn't home]

Pinocchio & Jiminy: [surprised] He sailed out to sea?!
Sofia: That's right. Sailed out to sea. Am I not speaking clearly?
Jiminy: How?
Sofia: How do you mean? In boat. He needed to get to Pleasure Island to lock for Pinocchio. So he sold all of his clocks and he bought a boat. Those clocks meant everything to him. It's his life's work.
Pinocchio: Gee. He sold his clocks to find me?
Sofia: That's right, kid. You mean more to him than his beloved clocks.
Jiminy: Moreover thanking anyone.
Pinocchio: [determined] Let's go!

View Quote Sabina: [gasp] Pinocchio! [chuckling]
Pinocchio: Sabina? I'm so glad it's you!
Sabina: [gasp] Look. [chuckling] You've got new ears!
Pinocchio: Uh yeah, and a new tail.
Sabina: Pinocchio, we, the members of the New Marionette Family Theater, have a very important proposition.
Pinocchio: You started your own puppet show?
Sabina: We sure did. Last night, the Carabinieri arrested Stromboli and put him jail.
[The scene quickly shows last night when Stromboli is thrown into his cell as he was arrested]
Pinocchio: Wow. The New Marionette Family Theater! I like it.
Sabina: But there's more, we would be honored if you want me and your show.
Pinocchio: Really? You want me in your show?
Fabiana: Yep, donkey ears and all.
Sabina: And we want you to be the headliner.
Pinocchio: Really? I can't think of anything more wonderful. But... Uh... I have to stay and find my father.
[His donkey ears and tail suddenly disappear]
Sabina: Pinocchio, something tells me the decision you made is the right one.
Jiminy: It sure is, Pinoke. I'm proud of you, kiddo. And look! Your donkey ears are gone!
Pinocchio: Yeah! My donkey ears are gone!
Sabina: And your tail!
Pinocchio: They're both gone!
Sabina: Well, we've got to get going. Perhaps I'll see you next year when we come back to put on a show in Siena?
Pinocchio: I hope so.
Sabina: Until next year. And, Pinocchio, please give my best to your father.
Fabiana: And mine, too.
Fabiana and Sabina: When you find him.
Pinocchio: I sure will.
Jiminy: Holy moly! I almost forgot. Sofia said Geppetto left about two hours ago, headed south. She agreed to airlift us so we can search for...
Sofia: Hold on one gosh-darn minute. Let's get something straight here, Mr. Cricket. I said I'd airlift you, not him. I can't carry a heavy block of wood. No offense, kid.
Jiminy: Well, what are we gonna do?
Pinocchio: I have an idea.

View Quote [Roger was about to drink his soda when he noticed Al was in his soda cup then spits him out and mumbling] Al: Shh. Shh-shh. This is between you and me, little guy. No one can see me but you. Remember?
Roger: [noticing the people, who're sitting behind him and waves to them] Hi.
[the people waves back] Al: Sit down, already. I left in a hurry yesterday. I forgot a few of the rules. Numero uno: don't tell anyone about us. Now, I heard you already told a little kid and El Capitan. But nobody else. We hate recognition. We're a very sensitive group. If people know we're around, I wouldn't be able to get an angel within a mile of this team.
Roger: Okay. Are you guys gonna help out today?
Al We'll see. We never make commitments. We go and come and come and go. We're a capricious crowd.
Roger: What's capri--[notices J.P. and David are coming back] What's capricious?

View Quote [Roger and J.P. are watching the game from a tree near the stadium and listening to the radio broadcast; on the field, George Knox starts walking out to the mound]
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio] With another example of his infamous temper, manager George Knox calls time out. He is going to have a word with his pitcher, Frank Gates.
Roger: I don't think it's going to be a happy word.
Ranch: And it looks like Knox is going to take Gates out. Gates doesn't look too, pleased about this.
[on the field]
George Knox: Give me the ball.
Frank Gates: It ain't my fault, you need a new outfield.
George Knox: [louder] You're out of here, GIVE ME THE BALL!!!
Frank Gates: Do you want the ball? Well, here you go. [starts to hand it over] GO GET IT! [throws it aside and starts to hand his glove over] Do you want my glove? WELL, GO GET IT. [throws it as well].
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio] Gates has thrown his ball and glove into the stands!
George Knox: [lunges at Gates] Oh, Go on, get out of here, you're finished Gates. [they begin fighting with each other]
Ranch Wilder: [on the radio] And now Knox has attacked his own pitcher!
Players: Uh-oh.
Ranch: This is outrageous! George Knox is fighting off his own players.
[in the tree]
Roger: [sighs] Surprise, surprise...

View Quote [Roger and J.P. plans to play baseball with the neighborhood kids around the block when George Knox is the pitcher. After J.P. bats the ball. After J.P. bats the baseball, George Knox chose a little boy named Marvin Vincent Archer]
George Knox: Have you played any ball, before, Marvin?
Marvin Vincent Archer: No, never played any ball.
George Knox: Well, this is the perfect time to learn. [picks up Marvin Vincent Archer] Come on. [places Marvin Vincent Archer on the Home Plate] Watch the ball and when I say, now, you swing. Just do exactly what I say. Get ready to swing. Now!
[Marvin Vincent Archer hits the ball]
Roger: [To Marvin Vincent Archer] Go, Marvin! Run to first base!
[Marvin Vincent Archer runs to first base]
George Knox: [to Marvin Vincent Archer] You stay on base and do just what I say.
Marvin Vincent Archer: [to George Knox] OK.
George Knox: [to the other kids] We got runners on first and second.
[A big boy comes to the Home Plate]
George Knox: And look who's coming to bat... Babe Ruth.
[George Knox throws the ball and the big boy hits the ball]
George Knox: [to Marvin Vincent Archer] Go, Marvin! Run home!
Marvin Vincent Archer: [to George Knox] Run home?
George Knox: [to Marvin Vincent Archer] Run home!
Marvin Vincent Archer: Run home. Run home.
[All the kids start laughing]
George Knox: [to Marvin Vincent Archer] Hey, Marvin, where you going?
Marvin Vincent Archer: [still running off] Run home, run home, run home.
George Knox: [to Roger] Hey, where is he goin'? And what happened?
Roger: [To George Knox] You told him to run home.
[Knox finally gets it and he laughs with Roger]

View Quote [about the Neo-Vipers] They feel no fear. Cortical nerve clusters show complete inactivity. They feel no pain. Concepts of morality are disengaged. They feel no regrets, no remorse. The nanomites join together as a fighting mechanism, first blocking, then expelling the cobra's venom

View Quote If we sold one warhead on the black market, I could continue my research.

View Quote The time has come for the Cobra to rise up and reveal himself. [dons a new mask] You will call me... Commander!

View Quote [Seeing Aaron and Christian kissing]

View Quote Gordon: I can't change your mind about quitting the force?
Blake: What you said about structures becoming shackles...you were right. I just can't take it. I mean, nobody will ever know who it was that saved an entire city.
Gordon: They know. It was the Batman.

View Quote [as he meets Bruce Wayne] Uh, he doesn't know or care who you are; but we've met before. It was a long time ago, I was a kid. Saint Swithin's used to be funded by the Wayne foundation; it was an orphanage. My mom died when I was small; it was a car accident, I don’t really remember it. But, uh, my dad got shot a couple years later over a gambling debt. And I remember that one just fine. Not a lot people know what if feels like to, uh, be angry... in your bones. I mean, they understand, your foster parents, everybody else understands... for a while. But then they want the angry little kid to do something he knows he can’t do. Move on. So, after awhile, they stop understanding. They send the angry kid to a boys home. I figured it out too late. You got to learn to hide the anger. Practice smiling in the mirror. It's like putting on a mask. So, you showed up this one day in a cool car, pretty girl on your arm. We were so excited! Bruce Wayne; billionaire orphan! I mean, we use to make up stories about you, man. Legends. And, you know, with the other kids, that's all it was, just stories, but... right when I saw you, I knew who you really were. I'd seen that look on your face before. It was the same one I taught myself. I don't know why you took the fall for Dent's murder, but I'm still a believer in the Batman. Even if you're not.

View Quote [Gordon and Blake watch Bane appear before Blackgate prison]
Bane: [addressing media at the gate] Behind you stands a symbol of oppression. Blackgate Prison, where a thousand men have languished under the name of this man, Harvey Dent, [holds picture of Dent] who has been held up to you as the shining example of justice!
Blake: Commissioner, we need to keep you moving until we can get you in front of a camera.
Bane: You have been supplied with a false idol [tears up picture] to stop you tearing down this CORRUPT CITY! Let me tell you the truth about Harvey Dent from the words of Gotham's police commissioner, James Gordon. [reads text of speech] "The Batman didn't murder Harvey Dent. He saved my boy, then took the blame for Harvey's appalling crimes so I could, to my shame, build a lie around this fallen idol. I praised the madman who tried to murder my own child. But I can no longer live with my lie. It is time to trust the people of Gotham with the truth, and it is time for me to resign." [calls to prisoners] And do you accept this man's resignation? [prisoners roar with approval] And do you accept the resignation of all of these liars?! Of all the corrupt?!?
Blake: Those men locked up for eight years in Blackgate and denied parole under the Dent Act, based on a lie?
Gordon: Gotham needed a hero.
Blake: It needs one now more than ever. You betrayed everything it stood for.
Gordon: There's a point, far out there, when the structures fail you. When the rules aren't weapons anymore, they're shackles, letting the bad guy get ahead... One day, you may face such a moment of crisis, and in that moment, I hope you have a friend like I did! To plunge their hands into the filth, so that you can keep yours clean!!!
Blake: [disgusted] Your hands look plenty filthy to me, Commissioner.
Bane: We take Gotham from the corrupt, the rich, the oppressors of generations who have kept you down with myths of opportunity, and we give it back to you - the people. Gotham is yours. None shall interfere, do as you please. [one of Bane's captured Tumbler Cannons blows a hole in the prison's gates, allowing his followers inside] But start by storming Blackgate and freeing the oppressed! Step forward, those who would serve! For an army will be raised. The powerful will be ripped from their decadent nests, and cast out into the cold world that we know and endure. Courts will be convened. Spoils will be enjoyed! Blood will be shed! The police will survive, as they learn to serve true justice. This great city... it will endure. Gotham will survive.

View Quote Richard Schultz: When you came to Chicago, were you hoping for a confrontation with the police? [pause] I'm concerned you have to think about it.
Abbie Hoffman: Give me a moment, would you, friend? I've never been on trial for my thoughts before.

View Quote Richard Schultz: Do you have contempt for your government?
Abbie Hoffman: I think the institutions of our democracy are wonderful things, that right now are populated by some terrible people.
Richard Schultz: Please answer the question.
Abbie Hoffman: Tell me again?
Richard Schultz: Do you have contempt for your government?
Abbie Hoffman: I'll tell you, Mr. Schultz, it's nothing compared to the contempt my government has for me.

View Quote Rennie Davis: ...you don't send a woman to... to ensorcel me!
Abbie Hoffman: What?
Rennie Davis: It means “to enchant”.
Abbie Hoffman: Oh.
Rennie Davis: ...only to have her crush my soul!
Richard Schultz: How long did you two know each other?
Rennie Davis: Ninety-three hours. Could have been a lifetime.
Richard Schultz: For a fruit fly; enjoy your weekend. (begins to walk away)
Rennie Davis: Is... is that even ethical? Aren't there ethics rules?
Richard Schultz: Did she engage with you sexually?
Rennie Davis: We were taking it slow.
