Best Batman Quotes (Animation)

Batman: No! God almighty, no! It'd be too damned easy. All I've ever wanted to do is kill him. A day doesn't go by where I don't think about subjecting him to every horrendous torture he's dealt on to others, and then...end him. But if I do that, if I allow myself to go down into that place, I'll never come back.

Batman: I am vengeance! I am the night!! I am BATMAN!!!

Batman: And one other thing, I'm not sure what you are, or where you come from, but my instincts tell you're to be trusted. Make no mistake, though, I have a 70,000 dollar sliver of radioactive meteor to stop the one from Metropolis. With you, all I need is a penny for a book of matches.

Batman: 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: Joe Chill. You are the slinking coward who murdered Thomas and Martha Wayne.

Joe Chill: That was a lifetime ago.

Batman: Yes. My lifetime! You took them without mercy or regret and in cold blood, Chill!
Joe Chill: H-how do you know this? How could you possibly--

Batman: I know because I watched it happen! I know because I am the son of the man you murdered! I am Bruce Wayne!

Phantom Stranger: He is beaten. Let your devotion to justice temper your rage.

Spectre: He took your parents. Ruined your life. Become what you have trained to be: an agent of Vengeance. He knows who you are. If this man lives, Batman dies.

Batman: Batman may die, but Bruce Wayne...never.

Batman: I didn't have to go easy on you...a different binding agent...a stronger mix... I want you remember that. I wanted to remind you to stay out of my way... In all the years to come, in your most private moments, I want you to remember the one man who beat you.

Bruce Wayne: You're wrong! There is a way out!

Mad Hatter: Now, now wait just a minute! You don't want to do anything foolish! This isn't an ordinary dream! What if you're wrong?!

Bruce Wayne: THEN I'LL SEE YOU IN YOUR NIGHTMARES!!

Bruce Wayne: I never counted on being happy.

Batman: I've got some things to say. I should've said them while you were here, but despite our differences, I had nothing but respect for you. I hope you knew--know that. You showed me that justice doesn't always have to come from the darkness. I'll missed--[interpreted by sounds of nearby explosions]--what did you always Clark? The neverending battle?

Batman (DCAU): You grabbed power!

Batman (Justice Lord): And with that power, we've made a world where no eight-year-old boy will ever lose his parents because of some punk with a gun.

Batman (DCAU): [drops batarang] You win...

Villain: You wouldn't hit a lady, would you?

Batman: The Hammer of Justice is unisex!

Batman: Who are you working for?

Casnian Goon: [in native tongue, subtitled] You can't understand a word I'm saying and I wouldn't tell you anything if you could.

Batman: [in goon's tongue] I can...and you will.

Hawkgirl: So what are you saying? You'd sacrifice millions of lives just because you don't like this guy?

Superman: You don't know Darkseid like I do.

Batman: We know he used you, humiliated you, brainwashed you, wound you up like a tin soldier and turned you loose against Earth... Cry me a river. On the outside chance that this isn't one of his schemes, we have to take action--so I suggest you get over it.

Batman: I don't have time to pursue a relationship. My work is too important to allow any distractions. Diana's a remarkable woman, she's a valued friend, she's...standing right behind me, isn't she?

Wonder Woman: Don't let that stop you. [leans over Batman, flirtatiously] Keep digging.

Batman: All the people I've murdered...by letting you live!

Joker: I never kept count.

Batman: I did!

Joker: I know, and I love you for it.

Batman: Tonight I am going to maintain order in Gotham City. You are going to help me. But not with these. These are loud and clumsy. These are the weapons of cowards. Our weapons are precise and quiet. In time I will teach them to you. But for tonight, you will rely on your brains and your fists. Tonight, we are the law! Tonight, I am the law!

Batman: It wasn't easy to make, Clark. It took years and cost a fortune. Luckily, I had both.

Batman: It's over, Darkseid. Even you must realize the folly of being a king without a kingdom.

Batman: Nothing? What if Luthor does become President, like he did in their world? What would stop you from doing what that Superman did!?

Superman: There's always that Kryptonite you carry around...

Batman: YOU DON'T GET TO JOKE! Not today! (Points at him) I just took a bullet for you!

Superman: I'm sorry, Bruce. You're right. But you don't have to worry about the Justice League. Trust me. You know me.

Batman: Yeah, I do.

Batman: [in free fall, having bailed out of his plane] Batman to all points. I could use some air support. Since I can't fly. At all... Now would be good.

Wonder Woman: No. No dating for the Batman. It might cut into your bruting time.

Batman: One: dating within the team always leads to disaster. Two: you're a princess from a society of immortal warriors; I'm a rich kid with issues...lots of issues.

Green Lantern (John Stewart): The Green Lanterns have a legend. No one can see the beginning of time. It's a universal law!

Batman: Write him a ticket!

Zatanna: Don't underestimate yourself. Little secret, when goblins want to scare themselves, they tell Batman stories.

Hawkgirl: You always carry a piece of Kryptonite with you?

Batman: Call it insurance.

Hawkgirl: And they say I'm scary.

Batman: Your cousin just torched $50,000 worth of custom hardware.

Superman: Send me the bill.

Batman: On a reporter's salary?
