Somebody Else's Problem/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Superman: Tell [the drug dealers] I plan to come back every few weeks. I'll [burn their stashes down] again and again until they leave.
Kid: Okay, but you know they're just gonna set up somewhere else, over there--
Superman: Yes, but they won't be here anymore, and that's a step in the right direction. See, in the end, all we can do is look at where we are, at where we're standing, and say we will not allow it here. Over there has to stand for itself, has to speak for itself. Because it's only when over there becomes here that we can stop this once and for all.
