Jon Cryer: Lex Luthor

Quotes 

• Lex Luthor : Peace at last. It took a bit of persuading, but the prisoners have been pacified and neutralized. They're ready for the next round.

  Lena Luthor : [smashing a hard drive on the floor]  Non Nocere is dead. It doesn't work. It can't. It never could. Pain is a necessary part of being human, of... of life. And I was delusional to think that I could save people, or fix it. Humanity will always try to protect itself, to evolve. You can't stop that. You saw Steve, how helpless he was, all because of me.

  Lex Luthor : I was rooting for you, Lena. But I have to agree. Humanity can't be fixed. They need to be controlled. Leviathan may be our biggest threat, but they were right about one thing. Humanity needs to firm hand to guide it. To lead it. And not some arrogant alien. It needs to be human.

  Lena Luthor : You mean a Luthor.

  Lex Luthor : Think of all that we could accomplish together, if we just take our rightful place as humanity's saviors.

  Lena Luthor : Saviors? Of course. You never change. This was always all about you, your megalomania. You... knew my plan wouldn't work, that it was doomed. You were counting on it.

  Lex Luthor : HOW DARE YOU? I GAVE YOU THE WORLD! EVERYTHING! I supported you. I sabotaged *nothing*, touched *nothing*. I set aside my own goals for you. Because you needed to see your little project fail with your own eyes. To know the true depravity of humanity. To know that my way was the *ONLY WAY*!

  Lena Luthor : You're a monster. But that doesn't mean I have to be one, too.

• Lex Luthor : Eventful day, Director Dox?

  Querl Dox : I know. I disobeyed your direct order. I interfered with Leviathan and the Supers. I am responsible. For everything.

  Lex Luthor : [laughing]  Oh, Dox. Of course, I knew that you would rush in to help your little friends. You're all gooey hero on the inside. I don't have to be a genius to know that. But don't worry. Everything is right on track. Even the loss of the DEO is a tax write-off.

  Querl Dox : You wanted Rama Khan to be brought here. To get the kryptonite.

  Lex Luthor : I gave Leviathan a little trinket from the Fortress that, with kryptonite, will make Supergirl's life miserable. And they were very appreciative.

  Querl Dox : You got an invite to the ship.

  Lex Luthor : I told you, trust the process, save the world. Get some sleep. Big day tomorrow.

• Lex Luthor : Don't worry. I turned the sun red. I think we can fix one broken inmate.
