Earn big money! Learn about computers at Metropolis School of Technology.
Jimmy Olsen
Clark, I want you to keep these people distracted so they don't know what I'm doing.
Clark Kent
What are you doing?
Jimmy Olsen
What am I doing? Remember what the chief said? A photographer always goes after a story.
Clark Kent
That could be dangerous, Jimmy.
Jimmy Olsen
Danger? Goes with the territory, Mr. Kent.
Perry White
I don't have to tell you, it isn't easy for me to lose one of my best reporters.
Clark Kent
Oh, that's okay.
Perry White
But you deserve the vacation, Lois.
Perry White
I don't understand you, Olsen. A boring banquet and you bring me three thousand boring pictures. Yet Superman saves a man from drowning on 3rd Avenue this morning while you stand there watching the whole thing and you don't even bring me one picture.
Jimmy Olsen
Chief, I didn't have my camera with me.
Perry White
A photographer eats with his camera. A photographer sleeps with his camera.
Lois Lane

You're a genius. You've invented a machine that can find anybody's weak spot. Congratulations, old buddy. You're going to go down in history as the man who killed Superman!
Gus Gorman
I'm - no. Superman! No!
Superman
Alright, Webster, the game's over.
Lorelei Ambrosia
Hi, honey.
Superman
I don't know you, lady.
Lorelei Ambrosia
[sad]
But the other night...
Superman
I'm sorry, but that wasn't me. That guy's gone. [to Webster] And you're next, Webster.
Ross Webster
Never underestimate the power of computers. How do you like it?
Superman
l think it's typical of people like you, Webster. Instead of helping others, the four of you just want to help yourselves.
Gus Gorman
[to Superman]
Four of you? You mean, Us? Four? Wait-- Hey, man!
Lorelei Ambrosia
That's his last name. He likes to be called Superman.
Gus Gorman
[to Superman]
Oh, I see, I'm not with them, Superman.
Superman
You could've fooled me, Mister.

They said I lost it on the subway, but it ain't the truth! It was a pickpocket took it!

It was one of them little insy-bitty two-inch screen Japanese jobs.

The only other employment you found was in a fast-food joint which lasted... twenty-eight minutes? Well, that's some kind of record. Talk about fast.
Gus Gorman

Unemployment Clerk
Mr. Gorman, the city of Metropolis is generous to a fault, but thirty-six weeks of chronic unemployment, thirty-six weeks of living off the taxes of hard-working citizens. Do you know what you are?

Don't call me a bum! I ain't no bum!
Unemployment Clerk
You are, I was about to say, no longer eligible.
Evil Superman
[after blowing acid on Clark Kent]
What's 'a matter, Kent? Too warm for ya'? Come on chicken! You've been on my nerves for a long time!

What are ya' looking at?! Huh?!
Gus Gorman
Both keys at the same time!
Ross Webster
He didn't die. I asked you to kill Superman, and you're telling me you couldn't even do that one, simple thing.
Gus Gorman
I don't want to go to jail because there are robbers and rapers and rapers who rape robbers!
Gus Gorman
I just do not believe a man can fly!
Ross Webster
Never underestimate the power of computers.
