Batman Begins quotes
Page 8 of 9“Look around you, there's two councilmen, a union official, a couple of off-duty cops and a judge. Now, I wouldn't have a second's hesitation blowing your head off right here in front of them. That's power you can't buy. That's the power of fear."
Gotham isn't beyond saving.
I don't have the luxury of friends.
I gotta get me one of those. [Referring to the "Tumbler" aka the Batmobile]
I seek...The means to fight injustice. To turn fear against those who prey on the fearful.
I will not become an executioner.
I won't kill you.[pause] But I don't have to save you. [To Ra's al Ghul, just before leaving him to crash in the train]
I'm no rat. In a town this bent, who's there to rat to anyway?
It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me. [Quoting Rachel Dawes]
My anger outweighs my guilt.
People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy, and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man, I'm flesh and blood. I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol...as a symbol, I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting.
The first time I stole so that I wouldn't starve. I lost many... assumptions about the simple nature of right and wrong. And when I traveled... I learned the fear before a crime... And the thrill of success. But I never became one of them."
We start carrying semi-automatics, they buy automatics. We start wearing Kevlar... they buy armor-piercing rounds.
Well, a guy who dresses up like a bat clearly has issues.
