gptkbp:notable_quote
|
I am not a hero.
I am the night.
The world doesn't need a Batman.
This isn't a game.
This isn't a mud hole. It's an operating table.
You don't get it, son. This isn't a mud hole. It's an operating table.
The world doesn't need a hero.
You can't take the law into your own hands.
I will not let you destroy this city.
It's time to put on a mask.
The Joker is a monster.
The city needs me.
