“And as the sun, that had been too afraid to show its face in this city, started to turn the black into grey, I smiled. Not out of happiness. But because I knew… that one day, I wouldn’t have to do this anymore. One day, I could stop fighting. Because one day… I would win. One day, there will be no pain, no loss, no crime. Because of me, because I fight. For you. One day, I will win.”
- Batman (Bruce Wayne)
“Stars aren’t measured by how long they burn, Lar… but by how brightly. You’ve already accomplished more than a hundred men in a hundred lifetimes. If there’s any consolation to be found… it’s in that.”
- Superman (Clark Kent)
“Well, maybe now Leslie will have a chance to find out. A second chance. That’s what America is about, really. That’s the American way. Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness— and second chances. None of us are forced into being anything we don’t want to be. When I was young, I knew that I would be someone differentwhen I grew up. I would leave home and make a new life for myself. A new start, a second chance. When I first went to Metropolis, it was filled with people who’d done the same thing. People from all over America— from all over the world— who went to the city to live the lives they wanted, to be the people they wanted to be. That’s the idea America that was founded on, but it’s not just for people born here. It’s for everyone. And it’s for people like me and Livewire, too.

“Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us. And on my soul, I swear… until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice becomes the reality we all share - I’ll never stop fighting. Ever.”
- Superman
“According to the legend, St. George was fighting a particularly fierce dragon. The battle between them raged on for days, and St. George was losing his strength. And his faith. So he took a piece of broken armor, and he made it into this box. Inside it, he put all his doubts and his fears… and he then he went out to face the dragon again. But when the dragon saw St. George coming to do battle with him again, it hesitated and drew back. And in that moment, St. George plunged his sword into the dragon’s heart, and it fell dead. So when people are cruel to you, you take all your fears and your doubts and you put them in here in this box. And then you lock it. Huh? You’ll find that you’re, uh, you’re stronger than you think you are.”
- Lionel Luthor
