Quotes 

• Batman : [Batman invades a dinner party of Gotham City's criminal elite and their corrupted government officials who thought the new superhero would never bother them]  Ladies, gentlemen, you've eaten well. You've eaten Gotham's wealth. Its spirit. But your feast is nearly over. From this moment on, none of you are safe.

• Batman : [to Jefferson Skeevers]  You can never escape me. Nothing harms me. But I know pain. I know pain. Sometimes I share it with someone like you.

• [first lines] 

  Bruce Wayne : Gotham City. Clean shafts of concrete and snowy rooftops. The work of men who died generations ago. From here, it looks like an achievement. From here, you can't see the enemy.

• Batman : Twelve years. And the ache is still fresh. Like a raw angry nerve. But this isn't about healing. I'm not looking for closure.

• Bruce Wayne : I've tried to be patient. I've tried to wait. But I have to know. How, Father? How do I do it? What do I use to make them afraid? If I ring the bell, Alfred will come. Another of your gifts, Father. But I'd rather die than wait another hour. I've already waited 18 years. Eighteen years since all sense left my life.

  [a bat crashes through his window, lands on his father's sculpture] 

  Bruce Wayne : Yes, Father.

• Barbara Gordon : [aiming Jim's gun]  Don't move! I'll shoot, I will!

  Bruce Wayne : [his face hidden in shadow]  Mrs. Gordon, I won't let your son die. Trust me.
