Quotes 

• [Wonder Woman sees a mall for the first time] 

  Wonder Woman : It's like some kind of temple.

  Superman : [sarcastically]  Yes, for those who worship their credit cards.

• [trying to think of something to say to her mother after her long absence] 

  Wonder Woman : "You look more radiant than ever, Mother..." No. "Gone, mother? I didn't go anywhere. I was in my room... alone... for eight months..." Definitely not. "The world was in peril! Would you have me just stand by and do nothing...?" Hera give me strength.

• [Wonder Woman rescues little Cassie from a tree during a storm] 

  Wonder Woman : I've got you, little sister.

  Cassie : [confused]  You're not my sister.

• Wonder Woman : If you break your vow, no magic in the universe will save you from *me*.

• Wonder Woman : This is not your concern.

  Superman : When my friends start tearing up museums, it becomes my concern. I've already alerted the others. When they get here, they'll want an explanation.

• Wonder Woman : [Sees mannequins in a mall with fancy clothes on them]  How could any female wear such ridiculous garments?

  Superman : [amused]  You got me.

• Wonder Woman : How dare you defile this sacred ground!

  Felix Faust : Wait! Harm me, and the others will remain as they are; cold, hard stone.

  Wonder Woman : Who are you? Talk!

  Felix Faust : My name is Faust. Felix Faust. I am a humble student of the mystic arts.

  Wonder Woman : Why did you attack my sisters?

  Felix Faust : They left me no choice. I had to defend myself.

  Wonder Woman : By turning them to stone?

  Felix Faust : I came here in pursuit of ultimate knowledge. To gain this, I must find the fragments of an ancient sacred relic. The first piece was here on this island.

• Felix Faust : I'll make you a deal. I'll restore your sisters if you help me get the other fragments.

  Wonder Woman : Why should I believe you?

  Felix Faust : [conjuring a small stone disc]  A small demonstration.

  [pointing it at Hippolyta] 

  Felix Faust : Gravis vitae.

  Wonder Woman : [she's freed from the stone]  Mother!

  Queen Hippolyta : Diana? Athena heard my prayers and sent you.

  Wonder Woman : I'm so sorry, Mother.

  Felix Faust : Oh, what a touching reunion.

  Queen Hippolyta : The intruder. We must stop him. We must!

  Felix Faust : [pointing the disc at her again]  Patropa kistes.

  Wonder Woman : [she's turned back to stone]  You monster! Give me that!

  Felix Faust : [vanishing it]  I need your answer. Will you help me?

  Wonder Woman : [grabbing the front of his robes, she looks back at her mother and lets go]  What kind of man are you?

  Felix Faust : [conjuring an hourglass]  A practical one. You have 24 hours to bring me the rest of the fragments. Otherwise... your unfortunate mother will remain like this forever.

  Wonder Woman : And where will I find these relics?

  Felix Faust : [giving her three crystals]  These gems are attuned to the mystic vibrations of each fragment. They will lead the way.

• Wonder Woman : [fighting a hellish demon]  I won't ask again! Where's Superman?

  [it points behind her; seeing her reflection in a mirror, she realizes the demon is Superman] 

  Superman : I tried to tell you.

  Wonder Woman : [laying him down on the ground]  Superman, I'm so sorry. What kind of horror have we unleashed?

• Wonder Woman : [finding a vase on display]  Menalippe! Good for you. I always said your work was museum quality.

• Superman : [saving Diana from a falling street light]  You're usually more careful than that.

  Wonder Woman : I'm sorry. I was just... I don't know.

  Superman : What's wrong?

  Wonder Woman : My mother used to say the planets revolved around me. She called me her little sun and stars. You know, I left Themyscira against her wishes.

  Superman : Maybe you should go back and set things right.

  Wonder Woman : But what would I say to her?

  Superman : Try the truth.

  Wonder Woman : If only it were that easy. But you're right; I can't put it off any longer.

  Superman : [she turns to leave]  When will you be back?

  Wonder Woman : I don't know.

• Wonder Woman : Of course I don't trust this Faust, but what else can I do?

  The Flash : I say we go back and kick that would-be sorcerer's butt.

  Wonder Woman : No. Men are forbidden from ever setting foot on Themyscira.

  The Flash : Somebody should have told him that.

  Wonder Woman : Besides, I gave my word that I would find the other relics.

• Wonder Woman : Batman, it's Diana. I need some background information on a man named Faust; Felix Faust. He's some kind of sorcerer.

  Batman : Care to tell me what's going on?

  Wonder Woman : [one of the gems Faust gave her activates]  I'm sorry, I have to go.

  Batman : [she ends the call]  Computer, track coordinates on Javelin 7.
