Who know? Maybe he don't. Maybe this fool's such a bad motherfucker, he don't got to worry about nothin', he just sit down, eat my Chinese, watch my TV." See? You ain't even sat down yet. On that TV there, since you been in the room, is a woman with her breasteses hangin' out, and you ain't even bothered to look. You just been clockin' me. Now, I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.

We're not negotiatin'. I don't like to barter. I don't like to dicker. I never have fun in Tijuana. That price is non-negotiable. What's in that envelope is for my peace of mind. My peace of mind is worth that much. Not one penny more, not one penny more.

Shen: And why on Earth would I do that?
Soothsayer: So your parents can rest in peace.
Shen: [bitterly] My parents... hated me. Do you understand? They - they wronged me. And... I will make it right.

[painfully, Dukhovich sits on the ledge. He looks at Kincaid and chuckles nastily]
Vladislav: [venomously] The look on your face. You're so proud. Darius Kincaid, about to be a hero, save the day. None of that matters. There is no redemption, no atonement for a man like you. Your whole life has been but a trail of corpses, and I will be just another dead body on the pile! Go ahead! Finish me! But don't think for a moment it will change what you are.
[Kincaid stares at Dukhovich for a moment, then bursts out laughing]
Darius: I don't give a fuck about all of that!

Jim: Bruce Wayne?

Shen: Greetings, panda. We meet at...

[holds up a picture of Harvey Dent]
Bane: Harvey Dent, who has been held up to you as the shining example of justice!
John: [to Gordon, at Blake's apartment] Commissioner, we need to keep you moving until we can get you in front of a camera.
Bane: You have been supplied with a false idol to stop you from tearing down this CORRUPT CITY! Let me tell you the truth about Harvey Dent from the words of Gotham's police commissioner, James Gordon.
[holds up Gordon's speech papers and begins to read]
Bane: "The Batman didn't murder Harvey Dent, he saved my boy then took the blame for Harvey's appalling crimes so that I could, to my shame, build a lie around this fallen idol. I praised the mad man who tried to murder my own child but I can no longer live with my lie. It is time to trust the people of Gotham with the truth and it is time for me to resign."
[calls to prisoners]
Bane: And do you accept this man's resignation? Do you accept the resignation of all these liars? Of all the CORRUPT?
[prisoners roar with approval]
John: Those men locked up for eight years in Blackgate, and denied parole under the Dent Act, based on a lie?
Jim: Gotham needed a hero...
John: It needs it now more than ever. You betrayed everything you stood for.
Jim: There's a point, far out there when the structures fail you, and the rules aren't weapons anymore, they're... shackles letting the bad guy get ahead. One day... you may face such a moment of crisis. And in that moment, I hope you have a friend like I did, to plunge their hands into the filth so that you can keep yours clean!
John: [disgusted] Your hands look plenty filthy to me, Commissioner.

John: I just can't take it. I mean, nobody will ever know who it was who saved an entire city.
Jim: They know who it was; it was the Batman.

Stansfield: You're a Mozart fan. I love him too. I looooove Mozart! He was Austrian you know? But for this kind of work,
[imitates playing the piano]

Old: [investigating the noise] What's happening out there?

Stansfield: I am calm.

Ivan: We'll get to that.

Bruce: Don't turn around. You're a good cop, one of the few.
Jim: What do you want?

Bruce: What will it take to bring him down?
Jim: Leverage on Judge Faden, and a DA brave enough to prosecute.
Bruce: Rachel Dawes.
Jim: Who are you?
Bruce: Watch for my sign.
Jim: You're just one man?
Bruce: Now we're two.
Jim: We?

Clarice: How did he end up at your house?
Mason: I invited him of course... to my pied-à-terre. I came to the door in my nicest come-hither outfit. I was concerned... that he'd be afraid of me. But he didn't seem to be. Afraid of me. That's almost funny now.

Dr. Zachary Smith: You can't do it can you? You can't kill the man without becoming the monster.

Shen: Call in the wolves. All of them! I want them ready to move. The year of the peacock begins now!
Wolf: Right now? Cause it's the middle of the year... so you'd only get like a half of the year of the peacock.
[Shen glares at him, raising a dagger]

Shen: Get the wolves ready. We're loading the ships now...
[shouts]
Shen: NOW! Now, now, now, now!

Dr. Zachary Smith: Never fear, Smith is here.

Dr. Zachary Smith: It's the world behind the world Dr. Robinson. Lie once, cheat twice, and everything becomes clear.

[to Lupin]
Professor: I told Dumbledore you were helping an old friend enter the castle and now here's the proof.
Sirius: Brilliant, Snape - once again you've put your keen and penetrating mind to the task and as usual come to the wrong conclusion. Now if you'll excuse us, Remus and I have some unfinished business to attend to.
Professor: [raises his wand at Black] Give me a reason. I beg you.
Professor: Severus, don't be a fool...
Sirius: He can't help it. It's habit by now.
Professor: Sirius, be quiet!
Sirius: Be quiet yourself, Remus!
Professor: Listen to you two, quarrelling like an old married couple.
Sirius: Why don't you run along and play with your chemistry set?
Professor: [puts his wand to Black's throat] I could do it, you know... But why deny the Dementors? They're so longing to see you.
[Sirius trembles]
Professor: Do I detect a flicker of fear? Ah, yes. The Dementor's Kiss. One can only imagine what that must be like to endure. It's said to be nearly unbearable to witness, but I'll do my best.

Soothsayer: A peacock... is defeated by a warrior of black and white. Nothing has changed.

Shen: Who?
Wolf: [enters] Lord Shen, I saw a panda!
Shen: A panda?

[triggers an explosion]

Grace: You said you were gonna release us.
Ivan: Forgive me. I lied.

Ivan: What do I want? When Mother Russia becomes one great nation again, when the capitalists are dragged from the Kremlin and shot in the street, when our enemies run and hide in fear at the mention of our name, and America begs our forgiveness on that great day of deliverance, you will know what I want.

Jim: [reading from the book "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens] I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss. I see the lives for which I lay down my life, peaceful, useful, prosperous and happy. I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence. It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.

Mason: So what do ya think, Cordell? Does Lecter want to fuck her or kill her or eat her alive?

Shen: My father's throne. He used to let me play here beside him, promising me someday this throne would be mine.
[Shen has his father's throne pitched out the window, and a heavy, ornate cannon put in its place]
Shen: A little to the left.
Gorilla: But it's so heavy, Master.
Shen: Thirty years I've waited for this moment. Everything must be exactly as I envisioned it. And I envisioned it... a little to the left.
[the gorillas grunt and move the cannon]
Shen: Perfect. With the weapon by my si... uh, a little bit more.
[the gorillas groan and move it again]
Shen: With the weapon by my side, none can stand in my way!

Dracula: I, who served the Cross. I, who commanded nations, hundreds of years before you were born.
Professor: Your armies were defeated. You tortured and impaled thousands of people.
Dracula: I was betrayed. Look what your God has done to me!

Shen: Are you willing to die to find the truth?
Po: You bet I am...! Although, I'd prefer not to.

Sirius: Get away from my Godson!
[punches Mr. Malfoy in the face]

Master: What do you want, Shen?
Shen: What is rightfully mine: Gongmen City!
Master: Gongmen is under the stewardship of the Council of Masters, and we will protect it. Even from you.
Shen: [laughs] I'm so glad you feel that way! Otherwise I'd have dragged... that all the way here for nothing.
[He motions to his wolf soldiers dragging a heavy crate into the courtyard]
Master: What's in the box, Shen?
Shen: You want to see? It's a gift. It's your parting gift... in that it will part you. Part of you here, part of you there, and part of you way over there, staining the wall!
Master: You insolent fool!

Dr. Zachary Smith: [to Will Robinson] Let me tell you a lesson about life, kid. There are monsters everywhere... I know, I am one.

Sirius: If anyone's got a right to know it's Harry. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't even know Voldemort was back! He's not a child, Molly!

Sirius: He's not your son.
Molly: He's as good as! Who else as he got?
Sirius: He's got me!

Ivan: You've been very busy downstairs, haven't you? Killing my men?
Ivan: [Slaps President Marshall's face after been tied with tape]
Ivan: [Punches President Marshall's stomach]
Ivan: [Lies down President Marshall against a desk and takes his gun and points it at his head]
Grace: NO!
President: You don't wanna do that. I'm what you came for, don't forget that.
Ivan: Then I'll kill them. Or just one? You pick. That's what you do in the White House? You play God.

Shen: How did you find peace? I took away your parents! Everything! I scarred you for life!
Po: See, that's the thing, Shen. Scars heal.
Shen: No they don't. *Wounds* heal.
Po: Oh, yeah. What do scars do? They fade, I guess?
Shen: I don't *care* what scars do!
Po: You should, Shen. You gotta let go of that stuff from past, because it just doesn't matter! The only thing that matters is what you choose to be now.
Shen: You're right. Then I choose *this*!
[Shen attacks Po with his knives; they fight until Shen accidentally dislodges his destroyed cannon and is crushed by it]

Stansfield: You don't like Beethoven. You don't know what you're missing. Overtures like that get my... juices flowing. So powerful. But after his openings, to be honest, he does tend to get a little fucking boring. That's why I stopped!
[laughs and sighs]
Stansfield: Toss the apartment.

CJCS: [to Fisk] You didn't just start a war... you just lost one

Ivan: When you talk to the President, you might remind him that I am holding his wife, his daughter, his chief of staff, his national security advisor, his classified papers - and his baseball glove! If he wants them back, he will prevail upon the puppet regime in Moscow to release General Radek. Fifty for one. It's a good deal. How's your blouse?
Vice: What assurances do I have that you'll keep your word?
Ivan: I'll wait for confirmation that General Radek has been released. Until then... I will execute a hostage every half an hour. You have my word.

Kreacher: [to Harry] Nasty brat standing there as bold as brass. Harry Potter, the boy who stopped the Dark Lord. Friend of Mudbloods and blood-traitors alike. If my poor mistress only knew...
Sirius: Kreacher! That's enough of your bile. Away with you!
Kreacher: [smiles] Of course Master. Kreacher lives to serve the noble house of Black.

Mathilda: You killed my brother.
Stansfield: I'm sorry. And you want to join him?
Mathilda: No.
Stansfield: It's always the same thing. It's when you start to become really afraid of death that you learn to appreciate life. Do you like life, sweetheart?
Mathilda: Yes.
Stansfield: That's good, because I take no pleasure in taking life if it's from a person who doesn't care about it.

Richard: I found the picture.
Joey: Picture? What picture?
Richard: Could you lower your script? I need to see your face so I can play off your reaction.

Richard: Well of course I have.
Joey: You know you've been spitting on me?
Richard: That's what real actors do! Enunciation is the mark of a good actor, and when you enunciate, you SPIT!

Sirius: We think Voldemort wants to build up his army again.
[everyone turns to look at Sirius]
Sirius: Fourteen years ago he had huge numbers at his command, not just witches and wizards but all manner of dark creatures. He has been recruiting heavily and we have been attempting to do the same. But gathering followers isn't all he's interested in...
[Moody coughs loudly from the corner]
Sirius: We believe Voldemort may be after something...
Alastor: Sirius!
Sirius: Something he didn't have last time.
Harry: You mean, like a weapon?
[Sirius opens his mouth to speak]
Molly: No! That's enough! He's just a boy, you say much more and you might as well induct him into the Order straight away.
Harry: Good! I want to join! If Voldemort's raising an army, then I want to fight!

Grace: Where is my husband?
Ivan: He has fled. The coward chose to save himself. But one can always... strike a bargain.
Grace: No, you listen to me. I don't know who you are or what you want, but you will never get it. He will not negotiate.
Ivan: Really? His wife. His daughter. A man could not live with himself. And it would be such... bad politics.
[putting his gun to her head]
Ivan: I think he'll negotiate.

[to Mina about the wolf]
Dracula: He likes you.

Stansfield: I have a lot of respect for your business, Tony. When you've killed for us in the past we've always been satisfied. And that's exactly why today is going to be very, very hard for me. I hope you'll excuse my mood.
[Shows a crime scene photo]
Stansfield: My man was killed, right here, on your turf. And the chinks tell me that the hit man was kind of the... Italian type. So we figured that, uh, Tony might know something.
[Tony motions to speak]
Stansfield: Wait - there's more. You're gonna love this. A few hours later, a little twelve-year-old girl comes to my office armed to the teeth, with the firm intention of sending me straight to the morgue. And do you know who came and got her in the middle of the afternoon right there in my building? The very... same... Italian hit man.
[Beat]
Stansfield: I'm dying to meet him.

Dr. Zachary Smith: Major West, I highly recommend you never breed. That, by the way, is my medical opinion.

Dracula: You will, I trust, excuse me if I do not join you. But, I have already dined, and I never drink... wine.
Jonathan: [looks at painting on the wall] An ancestor? I see a resemblance.
Dracula: The Order of the Dracul, the Dragon. An ancient society, pledging my forefathers to defend the church against all enemies of Christ. Their relationship was not entirely... successful.
Jonathan: Oh.
[chuckles]
Jonathan: Yes.
Dracula: [roars with rage as he draws a sword and points it at Harker's throat] It is no laughing matter! We Draculs have a right to be proud! What devil or witch was ever so great as Atilla, whose blood flows in these veins? Blood...
[laughs]
Dracula: Is too precious a thing in these times. The war-like days are over. The victories of my great race are but a tale to be told. I am the last of my kind.
Jonathan: I have offended you with my ignorance, Count. Forgive me.

President: You're not here for this, you want something. What is it?
Ivan: I want Radek.
President: How can I do that, I can't do that!
Ivan: Then you die the three of you.
President: I'll do anything to save my family DON'T ASK ME FOR SOMETHING I CAN'T GIVE!
Ivan: The most powerful man on the earth, and there certain things you cannot do. This is very curious, stop with your fuckin' LIES!

Dr. Zachary Smith: Black was always my colour.

[looking at the tapestry with the Black family tree]
Sirius: I hated the lot of them. My parents, with their pure-blood mania... my repulsive cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange...
[he points to a scorched hole in the tapestry over his name]
Sirius: My mother did that after I ran away. Charming woman.

Dracula: I... love you too much to condemn you.

Dracula: [to Jonathan Harker] They say you are a man of good... taste.

Carnegie: Is he staying?
Solara: We didn't do much talking.
Claudia: Solara honey, eat something.
Solara: Mom, give me your hand. Close your eyes. Mom, trust me... Dear Lord.
[Carnegie freezes where he is sitting, listening intently]
Solara: We thank you for our food. Thank you for my mother. Thank you for the roof over our heads and our new friends. And, uh... Well, I guess that's all for now.
Carnegie: Amen. That's the word you're looking for, Amen. That's how you stop. You said you didn't talk much. But did he do any reading?... I asked you a question.
Claudia: Bill, don't.
Carnegie: You, shut your mouth.
[Solara still says nothing. Carnegie grabs Claudia by her hair, pulling her head back until she screams in pain]
Carnegie: You're hurting your mother, Solara. He said he read every day. Did he?
Solara: Stop it!
Carnegie: [yanking Claudia off her chair and forcing her to her knees, still pulling her hair] Your mother would like you to tell me.
Solara: [getting very scared] I don't know! I don't know... Yes, okay! Yes, yes, he was reading.
Carnegie: What kind of book was he reading?
Solara: I don't know. I don't know! An old leather one.
Carnegie: And?
Solara: I don't know, it had some kind of thing on the front of it.
Carnegie: Show me.
Solara: I need you to let her go.
Carnegie: [shouting] Show me!
[Solara fearfully puts her fingers together into a cross]

Batman: [meeting Gordon carrying an unconscious Rachel out of Arkham] How is she?
Jim: [handing Rachel over] She's fading. We gotta go. I'll get my car.
Batman: I brought mine.
Jim: Yours?
[Batmobile blasts out and races by]
Jim: I've gotta get me one of those.

Harry: This connection between me and Voldemort... what if the reason for it is that I am becoming more like him? I just feel so angry, all the time. What if after everything that I've been through, something's gone wrong inside me? What if I'm becoming bad?
Sirius: I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You're not a bad person. You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.

Dracula: There is much to be learned from beasts.

Claudia: [brought in to Carnegie's office] Where's Solara?
Carnegie: Out there... her choice. I tried to... bring her back. She refused.
Claudia: What did you do that she refused?
Carnegie: [pushes the braille book toward her] Read it.
Claudia: What did you do to my daughter?
Carnegie: [raising his voice] Read it!
Claudia: [shouting and slamming her hands down on the desk] What did you do to my daughter?
[Claudia's hands brush the braille writing. She realizes why Carnegie needs her to read the book and smiles]
Carnegie: You can start any time.
Claudia: [pushing the book away from her] Sorry. It's been so long, I don't remember.
Carnegie: [pushes the book back to her] Read it...
Claudia: [smiling vindictively] Do I have to? Really?
Carnegie: [pleading now] No, you have to... please...!
Claudia: Your leg.
Carnegie: It doesn't hurt anymore.
Claudia: I can smell it.
[Claudia feels her away around the desk and stretches her hand out toward Carnegie, reaching to touch his head. He leans forward and touches his forehead to her hand]
Claudia: You worked so hard for that book. You sacrificed so much, so many men. More than you could spare.
[Claudia starts to lean her face in toward Carnegie, almost nose-to-nose with him]
Claudia: Now, all those people who were too scared to even say your name, they're downstairs, tearing up the bar right now, did you know that? And there's no one there to stop them. And you're *feverish.*
[she pushes his head away and straightens up, smiling in satisfaction]
Claudia: I can't imagine what it must feel like to have what you want so close, and it might as well be a million miles away.
Carnegie: [as Claudia starts to leave] Stop it!... are you leaving me? Claudia!
[Claudia keeps walking away, not answering]
Carnegie: Claudia!

Batman: [taps the Bat-signal] Nice.
Jim: I couldn't find any mob bosses.
Batman: Well, Sergeant?
Jim: Oh, it's Lieutenant now. You really started something. Bent cops running scared, hope on the streets.
Batman: But?
Jim: We still haven't picked up Crane or half the inmates of Arkham that he freed.
Batman: We will. We *can* bring Gotham back.
Jim: What about escalation?
Batman: Escalation?
Jim: We start carrying semi-automatics, they buy automatics. We start wearing Kevlar, they buy armor piercing rounds.
Batman: And?
Jim: And, you're wearing a mask. Jumping off rooftops. Now, take this guy.
[pulling out a file]
Jim: Armed robbery, double homicide, has a taste for the theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card.
[shows Batman a plastic evidence bag containing a Joker card]
Batman: I'll look into it.
[turns away and walks to the edge of the roof]
Jim: I never said thank you.
Batman: [looks back at Gordon] And you'll never have to.

Batman: [Hands over device] This blocks the remote detonator signal to the bomb. Get it onto it before sunrise. They might hit the button when it starts.
Jim: When what starts?
Batman: War.

Po: And now, to free the Five!
[takes off his hat]
Po: Disc of Destruction!
[He throws his hat... which doesn't go far and lands on a roof right in front of him]
Shen: Okay... take aim!

Sirius: Enough talk, Remus! C'mon, let's kill him!
Professor: Wait!
Sirius: I did my waiting! Twelve years of it! In Azkaban!
Professor: Very well, kill him. But wait one more minute. Harry has the right to know why.
Harry: I know why! You betrayed my parents! You're the reason they're dead!
Professor: No, Harry, it wasn't him! Somebody did betray your parents, but it was somebody who, until quite recently, I believed to be dead.
Harry: Who was it then?
Sirius: Peter Pettigrew! And he's in this room, right now! Come out, come out, Peter! Come out and play!

Sirius: You know the man you truly are, Remus! This heart is where you truly live! This heart! Here! This flesh is only flesh!

[last lines]
Mina: [narrating] There, in the presence of God, I understood at last how love could release us all from the power of darkness. Our love is stronger than death.
Dracula: Give me peace.
Mina: [impales him with the sword, then kisses him, then beheads him]

Léon: Stansfield?
Stansfield: At your service.
Léon: [handing him something] This is from... Mathilda.
Stansfield: [sees that it's a pin for a grenade] Shit.

James Gordon Jr.: Did Batman save you, Daddy?
Lt. James Gordon: Actually, this time I saved him.

Sirius: [to Harry] Nice one, James!

[last lines in the back of a factory]
James Gordon Jr.: Why's he running, Dad?
Lt. James Gordon: Because we have to chase him.
James Gordon Jr.: He didn't do anything wrong.
Lt. James Gordon: Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.

President: [after he is slammed by Korshunov against a computer] Petrov will never give up Radek!
Ivan: Petrov is a dog, eh. He does as you tell him to.
Ivan: [Slams President Marshall against the earphone plugs and points his gun at his neck] Tell him to do this.
President: [while holding a glass] Petrov used me, I just want to stop the bloodshed, he wanted a personal victory. Petrov hates Radek.
Ivan: Of course he hates Radek, Radek is everything he is not. A great man, A STRONG MAN. What are you saying? He will refuse you.
President: You'd be playing right in to his hands, are you an idiot, you'd make him into a hero, the man who stopped the terrorist. Or better yet, the man who stopped me.
Ivan: [Grabs Marshall's neck] You talk as you have nothing to do with this. This is all you are doing, this infection, you call freedom without meaning and without purpose. You have given my country to gangsters, and prostitutes. You have TAKENED EVERYTHING FROM US! There's nothing left.
[Spits on Marshall's face and puts his gun again at his neck and grabs a phone]
Ivan: Call him.
President: No. No!

Carnegie: And who are you?
Eli: Nobody.
Carnegie: Oh, I doubt that. The men you killed in my bar, now they were nobody.

Soothsayer: I see... I see... pain.
[plucks out some of Shen's feathers]
Shen: OW!
Soothsayer: And anger.
[chews on the hem of his robe]
Shen: How dare you! That is the finest silk in the province!
Soothsayer: Followed by denial.
Shen: This is not fortune-telling, you're just saying what's happening right...!
Soothsayer: Now?
[Shen glares]
Soothsayer: The most important time, is now.

Jim: [Gordon and his men have been brought into Crane's kangaroo court] No lawyer, no witnesses? What sort of due process is this?
Dr. Jonathan Crane: Your guilt has been determined. This is merely a sentencing hearing. Now, what will it be? Death or Exile?
Jim: Crane, if you think we're going to walk out on that ice willingly, you got another thing coming!
Dr. Jonathan Crane: So it's death then?
Jim: Looks that way.
Dr. Jonathan Crane: Very well. Death!
[smashes gavel]
Dr. Jonathan Crane: By exile!

Ivan: The President is safe - but then you must know that. He ran from here like a whipped dog! I'm sure you can't wait for him to get back to making the decisions so you can stop... sweating... through that silk blouse of yours!

Darius: You fucked up when you shot my bodyguard.
Vladislav: ...Who?
[Kincaid kicks Dukhovich off the roof to his death]

[about Hogwarts]
Sirius: It's beautiful, isn't it? I'll never forget the first time I walked through those doors. It'll be nice to do it again as a free man.
[about Pettigrew]
Sirius: That was a noble thing you did back there. He doesn't deserve it.
Harry: Well, I just didn't think my dad would've wanted his two best friends to become killers. Besides, dead the truth dies with him. Alive, you're free.

Carnegie: [about Eli] I love this guy. I love this guy.
[to Redridge]
Carnegie: Shoot him, please.

Dracula: [having just spotted Mina in the streets of London] See me. See me now.

Po: Shen! A panda stands between you and your...
[cut to Shen, who can barely hear Po say "destiny"]
Shen: WHAT?
[cut back to Po]
Po: Prepare yourself for a hot...
[cut again to Shen, who can still barely hear anything]
Shen: What?

Lt. James Gordon: [after Bruce saves Reese by blocking a truck with his car] It's mister Wayne, isn't it? That was a very brave thing you did!
Bruce: Trying to catch the light?
Lt. James Gordon: You weren't protecting the van?
Bruce: Why, who's in it?
[Reese steps out, sees Bruce, who nods slightly]
Bruce: Do you think I should go to the hospital?
Lt. James Gordon: You don't watch a whole lot of news, do you, Mr. Wayne?

Mason: [as Barney opens a pastry box] I might be able to get a cookie down. What do you think, Cordell?
Cordell: I think it would kill you.

Dr. Zachary Smith: Like the drip, drip, drip of blood...
Major: You really need to shut up.

Peter: What would you have done, Sirius?
Sirius: I would have died! I would have died rather than betray my friends, as we would have done for you!

Hoyt: [seeing two dead hijackers] It's like he's protected somehow. Like there's nothing that can touch him
Carnegie: Oh, he's just a fucking man. You put a bullet in him, he'll go down like any other.

[the Soothsayer chews on Shen's robe]
Shen: Will you stop that?

Dracula: Is this my reward for defending God's church?
Transylvanian: Sacrilege!
Dracula: I RENOUNCE GOD! I RENOUNCE HIM! I shall rise from my own death, to avenge hers with all the powers of darkness.

Dr. Zachary Smith: I loathe children.

[Jonathan accidentally had a cut while shaving]
Jonathan: I didn't hear you coming in.
Dracula: Take care how you cut yourself. It is more dangerous than you think.
[Dracula breaks the mirror]
Dracula: A foul bauble of man's vanity. Perhaps you should grow a beard.
[He licks the blood off the razor]
Dracula: The letters I requested, have you written them?
[Harker hands him the letters]
Dracula: Good. Should you leave these rooms, you will not by any chance go to sleep in any other part of the castle. It is old and has many bad memories. Be warned.

Shen: Why don't you tell me my...
Soothsayer: Fortune?
Shen: [annoyed] The future. I was going to say "future."

Marty: He's askin' about Alabama.
Drexl: Where the fuck is that bitch?
Clarence: She's with me.
Drexl: Who the fuck are you?
Clarence: I'm her husband.
Drexl: [laughs] Well, that makes us practically related.

Dr. Zachary Smith: Something you should abide by on this world or any other, never trust anyone. Especially me.

Mason: Cordell, shoot him! Get the gun and shoot him!
Cordell: Go into the pen?
Mason: Yes!
Cordell: No, I'm staying out of this.
Mason: You're involved, is what you are, in all of it! Now do it!
Cordell: No.
Mason: Yes!
Hannibal: [Cordell is standing behind Mason's wheelchair on a ledge overlooking the wild boar] Hey, Cordell! Why don't you push him in? You can always say it was me.

[Hannibal and Mason see each other for the first time in years]
Mason: Hylochoerus Meinertzhageni. Ring any bells from high school biology, doctor? No? Well, I could list its most conspicuous features if that would help jog the memory.
[wheels around the restrained Hannibal]
Mason: Three pairs of incisors, one pair of elongated canines, three pairs of molars, four pairs of pre-molars, upper and lower, for a total of forty-four teeth.
[stops to face Hannibal]
Mason: The meal will begin with an hors d'oeuvre tartare: your feet. The main course - the rest of you - won't be served until seven hours later, but during that time, you'll be able to enjoy the effects of the consumed appetizer with a full-bodied saline drip. I guess you wish now you'd fed the rest of me to the dogs, hmm?
Hannibal: [perfectly calm] No, Mason... No, I much prefer you the way you are.
Mason: [holding back anger] So... dinner at 8.

Shen: So, one panda lives. That does not make you right.
Soothsayer: You're right. Being *right* makes me right.
Shen: Then I will kill him, and make you wrong!

Dracula: I am the monster that breathing men would kill. I am Dracula.

[last lines]
Jim: I never said thank you.
Batman: And you'll never have to.

Dreyfus: [to Malcolm as they see the apes] That's a hell of lot more than eighty!

Drexl: Now I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.

The: Don't talk like one of them, you're not! Even if you'd like to be. To them, you're just a freak, like me. They need you right now. But when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper. See, their morals, their code... it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you, when the chips are down, these... these civilized people? They'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster, I'm just ahead of the curve.
Batman: [grabs Joker] Where's Dent?
The: You have all these rules and you think they'll save you!
Lt. James Gordon: [as Batman slams Joker into the wall] He's in control.
Batman: I have one rule.
The: Oh, then that's the rule you'll have to break to know the truth.
Batman: [getting impatient] Which is?
The: The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.
[mimicking Batman's voice]
The: And tonight you're gonna break your one rule.
Batman: I'm considering it.
The: Oh, there's only minutes left, so you're gonna have to play my little game if you wanna save one of them.
Batman: [softly, fearful] Them?
The: You know for awhile there, I thought you really were Dent. The way you threw yourself after her.
[Joker laughs, Batman throws Joker on table, barricades door]
The: Look at you go! Does Harvey know about you and his little bunny?
Batman: [slams Joker into mirror] Where are they?
The: Killing is making a choice.
Batman: [punches Joker] Where are they?
The: Choose between one life or the other. Your friend, the district attorney, or his blushing bride-to-be...
[punches Joker]
The: [laughs] You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with! Nothing to do with all your strength!
[grabs Joker]
The: Don't worry, I'm gonna tell you where they are. Both of them. And that's the point. You'll have to choose. He's at 250 52ND Street and she's on Avenue X, at Cicero.

[Shen enters the courtyard of his parents' palace]
Shen: Good afternoon, gentlemen... now that we've got the pleasantries out of the way, please leave my house.
Master: *Your* house?
Shen: Yes, didn't you see the peacock on the front door?

Dracula: Strigoi, Boloi!

Dr. Zachary Smith: You'll forgive me if I forgo the kiss, my sleeping behemoth. But the time has come to awake.
Robot: Robot is on-line. Reviewing primary directives. One, preserve the Robinson Family. Two, Maintain ship systems. Three
Dr. Zachary Smith: What noble charges my steely centurion. Sadly I fear you have far more dire deeds in store for you.
Robot: Robot is on-line. Reviewing primary directives. Two hours into mission destroy Robinson family. Destroy all systems.
Dr. Zachary Smith: Now that's more like it. Farewell my platinum-plated-pal. Give my regards to oblivion.
