Let the games begin! | |
Peace has cost you your strength! Victory has defeated you! | |
Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. | |
Batman has no limits. | |
You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! | |
I believed in Harvey Dent. | |
My mother warned me about getting into cars with strange men. | |
Theatricality and deception are powerful agents to the uninitiated... but we are initiated, aren't we Bruce? Members of the League of Shadows. And you betrayed us. | |
Torture? Yes. But not of your body, of your soul. | |
See, to them, you're just a freak... like me! | |
The only justice in an unfair world is chance. | |
But it's not who you are underneath. It's what you do that defines you. | |
It's not about money. It's about sending a message. | |
Why... so... serious? | |
Why do we fall, sir? So that we might better learn to pick ourselves up. | |
At this point, I would set you up with a chimpanzee if I thought it would get you out in the world again. | |
I'm Gotham's reckoning, here to end the borrowed time you've all been living on. | |
The world is too small for someone like Bruce Wayne to disappear. | |
I do fear death. I fear dying in here while my city burns and I'm not there to save it. | |
But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe one day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again. | |
We were in this together, but then you were gone. And now, there’s evil rising. The Batman has to come back. | |
You didn't think I'd risk losing the battle for Gotham's soul in a fistfight with you, did you? | |
You'll hunt me. You'll condemn me, set the dogs on me. Because it’s what needs to happen. | |
This conversation used to end with an unusual request. | |
If you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely. | |
The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules! | |
Gotham, take control... take control of your city. Behold, the instrument of your liberation! Identify yourself to the world! | |
Come with me. Save yourself. You don't owe these people any more. You've given them everything. | |
Only a cynical man would call what these people have 'lives,' Wayne. | |
Wanna know how I got these scars? | |
If you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely. | |
Bats frighten me. It's time my enemies share my dread. | |
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a city to destroy. | |
But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe one day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again. | |
Your compassion is a weakness your enemies will not share. | |
Why do we fall, sir? So that we might better learn to pick ourselves up. | |
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. | |
What chance does Gotham have when the good people do nothing? | |
A guy who dresses as a bat clearly has issues. | |
But it's not who you are underneath. It's what you do that defines you. | |
The world is too small for someone like Bruce Wayne to disappear. | |
I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you. | |
Always mind your surroundings. | |
Only a cynical man would call what these people have 'lives,' Wayne. | |
Let's put a smile on that face! | |
You'll hunt me. You'll condemn me, set the dogs on me. Because it’s what needs to happen. | |
It's not about money. It's about sending a message. | |
Because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector... a dark knight. | |
Wanna know how I got these scars? | |
Why... so... serious? | |
Batman has no limits. | |
You didn't think I'd risk losing the battle for Gotham's soul in a fistfight with you, did you? | |
Some men just want to watch the world burn. | |
Gotham needs its true hero. | |
I don't want to kill you. You complete me. | |
I took Gotham's white knight, and brought him down to our level. | |
Because sometimes, truth isn't good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve… to have their faith rewarded. | |
You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. | |
They'll hate you for it, but that's the point of Batman, he can be the outcast. He can make the choice that no one else can make, the right choice. | |
If you're good at something, never do it for free. | |
The only justice in an unfair world is chance. | |
See, to them, you're just a freak... like me! | |
It's simple: Kill the Batman. | |
The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming! | |
Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. | |
It's not about what I want, it's about what's fair! | |
The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules! | |
Spying on 30 million people is not part of my job description. | |
Torture? Yes. But not of your body, of your soul. | |
A hero can be anyone. Even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a little boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended. | |
Theatricality and deception are powerful agents to the uninitiated... but we are initiated, aren't we Bruce? Members of the League of Shadows. And you betrayed us. | |
So you came back to die with your city? | |
At this point, I would set you up with a chimpanzee if I thought it would get you out in the world again. | |
I believed in Harvey Dent. | |
When Gotham is ashes, you have my permission to die. | |
You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! | |
Gotham, take control... take control of your city. Behold, the instrument of your liberation! Identify yourself to the world! | |
There's a storm coming, Mr. Wayne. | |
This conversation used to end with an unusual request. | |
Peace has cost you your strength! Victory has defeated you! | |
Maybe it's time we stop trying to outsmart the truth and let it have its day! | |
It doesn't matter who we are... what matters is our plan. | |
I'm Gotham's reckoning, here to end the borrowed time you've all been living on. | |
We were in this together, but then you were gone. And now, there’s evil rising. The Batman has to come back. | |
I do fear death. I fear dying in here while my city burns and I'm not there to save it. | |

About the whole no guns thing... I'm not sure I feel as strongly about it as you do. | |
I don't know why you took the fall for Dent's murder, but I'm still a believer in the Batman. | |
