View Quote "I... missed. I NEVER miss!"

View Quote Franklin Nelson: Your client, Mister Lee, he made his first payment today.
Matt Murdock: That's great. You should be very happy.
Franklin: Yeah, it's fantastic. He paid in fluke. Fluke is a fish, Matt. Did you know that? Because I sure as hell didn't.
Matt: Mister Lee is a good man, and he-he doesn't have a lot of money, and he goes fishing on the weekends.
Franklin: Yeah, well, I go salsa dancing on the weekends, but I don't shake my ass to pay my phone bill, you know what I'm sayin'?
...
Franklin: We need some better clients. I'm tired of these pro bono cases.
Matt: What is your problem with our clients? We have good, honorable clients, decent people. What's your idea of better? Define "better". Huh? What would be a "better" client?
Franklin: "Better" means rich and guilty, okay? Remember how they taught us in law school how to create a moral vacuum, so you can represent people who aren't all necessarily innocent?
Matt: That was your best course, as I recall.
Franklin: Yeah, well, you don't have a moral vacuum, Matt. You're completely vacuumless.

View Quote "When it rains, it's like there's a rooftop on the world. Each raindrop makes a sound the first time it falls on a surface. Just then, it's like I-I... it's like I can see again. And I-I just want to... I just want to see you."

View Quote "Do you or do you not concede that there are alligators in the sewers? Please answer the question."

View Quote (A vigilante superhero in the confessional.)
Matt Murdock: Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It's been a week since my last --
Father Everett: What the hell are playing at, Matt? You didn't come here for forgiveness. You came for permission, and I can't give you that.
Matt: Justice isn't a sin, Father.
Father Everett: No, but vengeance is. You see it every day on the street: violence begets more violence. Is that how you want to live your life? A lawyer during the day, and then judge and jury at night. Is that what you want?
Matt: Somebody has to do something.
Father Everett: But why you?
Matt: Because I can. Because I'm not afraid.
Father Everett: Well, I'm afraid for you, Matthew. Look, a man without fear is a man without hope. May God have mercy on you for your sins and grant you Everlasting Life, Amen. (sighs) I'm not too crazy about the outfit, either.

View Quote "It's a shame you came here wounded. I would've loved to fight you in your prime."

View Quote "I was raised in the Bronx, Wesley. This is something you wouldn't understand."

View Quote "Matt, it's Heather. Are you there? Of course you're not there. You're never there. At least, not for me. Look, I didn't want to do this over the phone, but it's not like you've given me any choice. I mean, It's been three months, and I've never even seen your apartment. Every time we sleep together, I wake up in the morning alone. I mean, Jesus, where do you go at three o'clock in the morning?" ~ part of "Dear John" message on Matt Murdock's answering machine

View Quote "Stay with me. Stay."

View Quote "If there are no eyewitnesses -- you know, I mean, Bigfoot has eyewitnesses."

View Quote "You're good, baby, I'll give you that. But me? I'm magic."

View Quote Ben Urich: Matt, it's Ben Urich.
Matt Murdock: I know who it is. What do you want?
Urich: I got a lead on my story. I think that Natchios was set up by the real Kingpin.
Matt: Why are you telling me this?
Urich: They say the Kingpin doesn't just kill you. He kills your whole family. I think your girl's in trouble. I thought you might know somebody that could protect her.

View Quote Matt Murdock: Uh, I was just looking for some honey. Could you help me out?
Elektra (without looking up): Right in front of you.
Matt: Well... could you be a little more specific?
Elektra: What, are you --
Matt: Blind? Yeah.
Elektra: Oh, I am so sorry!
Matt: It's okay. (extends a hand) Matt Murdock.
'Elektra: (shakes hands) Nice to meet you, Matt Murdock.
Matt: Nice to meet you, uh... I didn't get your name.
Elektra: I didn't give it. (she exits the coffee shop.)
...
(Matt follows Elektra, tracking her by scent to a park.)
Elektra: What do you want?
Matt: I just wanted to get your name. I didn't want any trouble.
Elektra: Look -- I don't like being followed. So don't. (She turns to storm off.)
Matt: Uh, wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a second, take it easy! (He catches Elektra's hand.)
Elektra: And I don't like being touched! (She throws a punch; Matt counters and pins her arms.)
Matt: What don't you tell me what you do like, and we'll start there. Okay?
(Elektra throws more punches and kicks, which Matt dodges. The two separate, remove their jackets, and strike martial arts poses.)
Elektra: You sure you're blind?
Matt: Sure you don't wanna tell me your name?
...
(Later, during a pause in the fighting.)
Matt Murdock: Does every guy have to go through all this just to find out your name?
Elektra: Try asking for my number.
