[Batman breaks into a room, subdues the last mercenary and aims the man's machine gun at Knyazev.]
Anatoli Knyazev: [holding a flamethrower on Martha Kent] Drop it. I said drop it! I'll kill her! Believe me, I'll do it!
Batman: I believe you.
[He fires a single shot from the machine gun, piercing the napalm tank on Knyazev's back. Before Knyazev can trigger the flamethrower, Batman throws himself on Martha, shielding them both from the flames as the tank explodes, killing Knyazev.]
Batman: It's okay. I'm a friend of your son.
Martha Kent: I figured. The cape.

[Batman is suddenly in front of an imprisoned Lex, he has a knuckleduster with a burning bat shaped brand]
Batman: Whatever you do, wherever you go, I'll be watching you!
[Ultimate Edition dialogue begins]
Lex Luthor: [Unfazed] Oh. Look at us. This is how it all caves in. Civilization on the Wayne Manor's– out the window. Hmm. [Lex briefly chuckles] But who would believe me? I– Ahh– I'm insane. I'm not even fit to stand trial.
Batman: That's right. We have hospitals that treat the mentally ill with compassion. [Lex giggles] But that's not where you're going. I arranged for you to get a transfer to Arkham Asylum in Gotham. I still have some friends there. They're expecting you.
[Ultimate Edition dialogue ends]
Lex Luthor: [Sneers, unfazed] But the bell's already been rung. And they've heard it. Out in the dark, among the stars– ding dong, the god is dead.
[Batman grabs Lex and lashes out, but at the last second strikes the wall next to him and leaves a burning bat symbol, then is suddenly gone]
Lex Luthor: [Alone in his cell] But a bell cannot be un-rung! He's hungry. He's found us. AND HE'S COMING!

[From the Ultimate Edition, after Superman appears in front of Luthor and tells him he's lost] I don't know how to lose. [Superman tells him he'll learn] Ha! I'll learn. I don't hate the sinner. I hate the sin. And yours, my friend, is existing.

[giving speech] Books are knowledge and knowledge is power, and I am... no. Um, no. What am I? What was I saying? The bittersweet pain among men is having knowledge with no power because... because that is paradoxical and, um... thank you for coming.

[looks at a picture of angels vs. demons] That should be upside down. We know better now, don't we? Devils don't come from hell beneath us. No, they come from the sky.

Now you don't have to use a silver bullet. But if you forge one, well then, we don't have to depend on the kindness of monsters.
