The Dark Knight Saga/Quotes

Batman Begins
"Why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up."

- Thomas Wayne \ Alfred

"Dr Crane: Would you like to see my mask? (picks up his briefcase, takes it out) I use it in my experiments. Um, probably not very frightening to a guy like you, but these crazies? They can't stand it.

Falcone: So when did the nut take over the nuthouse?

[Crane presses a button in the case. Fear gas sprays into Falcone's face, and he immediately starts screaming]

Scarecrow: They scream and they cry. Much as you're doing now."

The Dark Knight
""Why so serious?""

- The Joker just before he kills someone

""You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.""

- Harvey Dent

"James Gordon: Why is he running, dad?

Commissioner Gordon: Because we have to chase him.

James Gordon: He didn't do anything wrong.

Commissioner 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 a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector...a dark knight."

The Dark Knight Rises
"You think this can last. There's a storm coming, Mister Wayne. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, 'cause when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us."

- Selina Kyle

"Bane: It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is our plan. No-one cared who I was 'til I put on the mask.

CIA Agent: If I pull that off, will you die?

Bane: It would be extremely painful.

CIA Agent: You're a big guy.

Bane: ...For you."

"When Gotham is ashes, you have my permission to die."

- Bane to Batman

"You are as precious to me as you were to your own mother and father. I swore to them that I would protect you, and I haven't."

- Alfred
