{{quote|'''Richard Nixon:''' That's our tragedy, you and I, Mr. Frost. No matter how high we get, they still look down at us.
'''David Frost:''' I really don't know what you're talking about.
'''Richard Nixon:''' Yes you do. Now come on. No matter how many awards or column inches are written about you, or how high the elected office is for me, it's still not enough. We still feel like the little man. The loser. They told us we were a hundred times, the smart asses in college, the high ups. The well-born. The people whose respect we really wanted. Really craved. And isn't that why we work so hard now, why we fight for every inch? Scrambling our way up in undignified fashion. If we're honest for a minute, if we reflect privately, just for a moment, if we allow ourselves a glimpse into that shadowy place we call our soul, isn't that why we're here? Now? The two of us. Looking for a way back into the sun. Into the limelight. Back onto the winner's podium. Because we can feel it slipping away. We were headed, both of us, for the dirt. The place the snobs always told us that we'd end up. Face in the dust, humiliated all the more for having tried. So pitifully hard. Well, to ''hell with that!'' We're not going to let that happen, either of us. We're going to show those bums, we're going to make 'em choke on our continued success. Our continued headlines! Our continued awards! And power! And glory! We are gonna make those mother fuckers ''choke!''...Am I right?
'''Frost:'''...You are. Except only one of us can win.

{{quote|''(Terry as Batman knees Joker in the stomach)''
'''Joker''': ''(Groaning)'' What are you doing?
'''Batman''': Fighting dirty.
'''Joker''': The 'real' Batman would never...''(Groans as he gets kneed in the stomach again)''
'''Batman''': Told ya you didn't know me.
'''Joker''': Funny guy.
'''Batman''': Can't say the same for you.
'''Joker''': ''(Growling)'' Impudent brat. Who do you think you're talking to?
'''Batman''': Not a comedian, I'll tell you that.
'''Joker''': Shut your mouth!
'''Batman''': The 'real' Batman never talked to you much, did he? That's probably why you were so fixated on him.
'''Joker''': Don't play psychoanalyst with me, boy!
'''Batman''': Oh, I don't need a degree to figure ''you'' out. ''(Takes out the lights)'' The real reason you kept coming back was you never got a laugh out of the old man.
'''Joker''': I'm not hearing this!
'''Batman''': Get a clue, clowny! He's got no sense of humour. He wouldn't know a good joke if it bit him in the cape... not that you ever had a good joke.
'''Joker''': Shut up... Shut up!
'''Batman''': I mean, joy buzzers? Squirting flowers? LAME! Where's the A-material? Make a face, drop your pants, something!
'''Joker''': Show yourself!
'''Batman''': You make me laugh. But only because I think you're kinda pathetic. ''(Starts laughing)''.
'''Joker''': Stop that!
'''Batman''': ''(Still laughing)'' So you fell in a tank of acid, got your skin bleached and decided to become a supervillain. What, you couldn't get work as a rodeo clown?
'''Joker''': Don't you DARE laugh at me!
'''Batman''': Why? I thought the Joker always wanted to make Batman laugh!
'''Joker''': ''[[Villainous Breakdown|(enraged as he starts throwing grenades)]]'' YOU'RE NOT BATMAN!

{{quote|'''Miko Miyazaki:''' Vile unnatural abomination! You shall never succeed in your evil quests!
'''Xykon:''' Meh. As last words go, I've heard better. Time to die, paladin! [[Beat|...]] Hey, just a tip: if you want to start begging for mercy, now's probably the time to go for it.<br />
'''Miko Miyazaki:''' I shall not give you the satisfaction. I have no fear. The blessing of the Twelve Gods has removed all traces of fear, magical or otherwise, from their paladins. Death does not scare me.<br />

{{quote|'''Annie:''' "Britta's right; you're the most selfish person alive! And all that is going to end right now, because I'm telling him what kind of friend you ''really'' are."
'''Jeff:''' "Maybe you should tell him you're hopelessly in love with him. ''[Annie is stunned]'' High school must have been tough, huh? Waiting for a superstar to notice you. But ''here'', he's all alone, and he needs ''so much'' help! Did you enroll in ''all'' of his classes, or were you worried [[Stalker with a Crush|that might freak him out]]? The important thing is that you are ''there'' for him. The ''important'' thing is that you are the ''only'' one there for him. And you don't really care what he wants, just as long as you don't have to share him with the rest of the world. Because ''really'', you're just as selfish as I am. You're just not as good at it yet."<br />
'''Annie:''' ''[Hurt]'' "You're right. [[Shut UP, Hannibal|I could never be as good as you. Probably because I actually care.]]"<br />
'''Jeff:''' ''[Flippantly]'' "Profound, but technically meaningless. ''[Upset, Annie storms off]'' And don't bother trying that thing that women do when they walk away and make the guy feel like crap because it's not going to happen! Yeah! ''[Guilty]'' Damn it!"

{{quote|"You're really getting worked up over this, aren't you? Quit trying to kid yourself into thinking you can help any of them. You know that they're going to wind up dead no matter what you do. And then what happens? You're left with nothing, that's what. The smart thing to do - the ''only'' thing - take whatever's important to you and run as far away as you possibly can. You act like you have a conscience, but you're just being sentimental. Isn't that right, ''Hohenheim?'' You think you can change things? You honestly believe that one act of caring will make you human? How could it - look at your own face! Humans are nothing but a resource, and if we don't use them they'll spread like weeds. You can't change reality, only your perception! Tell me what you think you could actually change, the nature of their ''species?'' They will ''always'' be weak and frightened creatures!"

{{quote|'''Ed''': Shut up! Do you really think you'll get away with this?! Messing around with someone's ''life'' like that! ''Your own daughter!!''
'''Tucker''': Someone's life? ''HAHAHAHAHAAA!'' Fullmetal alchemist, look at your leg! Your arm! Your ''brother!'' Those things are also the result of 'messing around' with somebody's life, aren't they?
'''Ed''': SHUT UP! *WHACK*
'''Tucker''': [[Not So Different|We are the same!]] We're the same, you and me!<br />
'''Ed''': WE'RE NOT!<br />
