This isn't Metropolis, Ralph. It's not even Gotham. Tonight, you're in my city. Like what I've done with the place? 
- Superman? You should be so lucky.
- Wow! And me without my anti-tank arrow.
- You signed a full-year lease? And here I thought you were afraid of commitment--
- Touch him first, Green Lantern, and you'll have to touch me second... and I'll touch back! -- Believe it, chum!
- Is that so? Well, my absolute hatred of dog-ridin' totalitarian @$$#&%$ justifies this!
- I shoot him in the shoulder out of pure instinct. And in the solar plexus to get his attention. And in the trachea to see if he'd even feel it. And then I shoot him in the face. Just to piss him off.
- I'm a fair man. So I'm going to let you start running. When you're a dozen yards away, I'll try to bring you down. You could get lucky. I might miss.
- Here's how it works, guys -- you have until I count to ten to stop your boisterous mischief... or I'll hand you boys your respective heads! Okay? One... two... ten!
- Yeah, that's right... I'm shouting at this tin-plated, circuit-hearted, bloodless computer! It's got some information I want, somewhere in its silicon-chip guts... and I can't find it!
- Yeah, I'm gonna miss Vertigo... like ringworm!
- Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Green Arrow!
- I'm not kidding myself. I know the reality of the situation. The reality is that people like me don't have children. We are children. Dressed up and playing cowboys and Indians with real bullets and real arrows.
- Well, I think we can rule out a surprise attack.
- Well, that was exciting. My nipples are all kinda hard.
- Evenin', Ma'am. Team Arrow is pleased to offer a new service to all of our Star City subscribers. For no additional costs, you're free to administer a few strategic kicks to your would-be assailant here. And when I say strategic, I mean his crotch.
- Now, did you bring the lockpick arrow?
- I shoot him in the shoulder out of pure instinct. And in the solar plexus to get his attention. And in the trachea to see if he'd even feel it. And then I shoot him in the face. Just to piss him off.
- Kyle, it's like someone showing up at your house on Halloween dressed as your dead best friend.
- Yeah. You run most of the drugs, prostitution and racketeering in this city, and I'm the jerk here.
- Would you quit your babbling, you five-fathom fascist! Which reminds me -- when the Hell are you going to allow for some democratic elections down there?! Kings went out of style with religious persecution in this country -- a country you're a de facto part of, because water surrounds most of our borders!
- You're seeing me as a hero figure -- and I'm seeing you as a sweet young warm body -- and I do too much of this, boinking people without any feeling, just because I can.
- So unless you and all your little would-be corporate dictator buddies want to go to prison -- real prison, by the way. Federal prison. Sadies Hawkins Dance, and the-worst-part-of-Deliverance prison -- you'll do exactly what I say.
- I will never understand the appeal of the Hawaiian pizza.
- The big bad Dark Knight. You're a walking psychosis, and every damned manner of sociopathic fruit fly flits toward you.
- Well, you know the expression, 'Gutlessly haul ass in an S.U.V.... live to cravenly fight another day'
- Dinah Laurel Lance... will you marry me?
- Damn it... not only are you people murdering scum -- but you're just a bunch mindless worker bee gestapo.
- Man up, bear down and hit that thing.
- '

- All right, so maybe I don't know much about being a hero like Mister Robin Hood here -- but I am heroically drunk!
- The water is still hot. Oily. Tinged with rust and mud and things I don't even want to imagine. It's the best drink I've ever had.
- Anyone doesn't wanna be a human pin-cushion better make like a statue!
- You didn't expect me to waltz in, did you? My mama didn't raise any total idiots.
- That's right, Lantern... apologize. Grovel in front of that walking mummy. You call yourself a hero! Chum, you don't even qualify as a man. You're no more than a puppet... and the Guardians pull your strings. Listen... forget about chasing around the galaxy! And remember America. It's a good country... beautiful... fertile... and terribly sick! There are children dying, honest people cowering in fear, disillusioned kids ripping up campuses. On the streets of Memphis a good black man died... and in Los Angeles, a good white man fell. Something is wrong. Something is killing us all! Some hideous moral cancer is rotting our very souls. And you... sitting on your mudball, preening like a smug tomcat. How dare you presume to meddle in the affairs of humanity, when human beings are no more than statistics to you and your crew. Come off your perch. Touch, taste, laugh, and cry! Learn where we're at... and why.
- Maybe when we get you straightened out, we'll learn something... maybe we'll finally know how maniacs like Joshua can come to be... how they can seize the hearts of decent people and fill them with the poison to hate... of bigotry! Sure, the hypnotism was part of it... but there had to be a part of you that responded to his insanity -- you... me... all of us! Maybe now we can get rid of that part... forever.
- This is like some badly written parody of a trial.
- Look... sure, I'm ticked off at the pushers because they prey on weakness -- but that doesn't mean my heart bleeds for junkies. Life is tough for everyone. If you want to claim humanity, you don't crawl into a drugged stupor.
- Aliens. I said I never wanted to mess with aliens again.
- Maybe you should stop focusing on the family you can't have -- and start focusing on the one you can.
- Arrows won't work here. But this...this might. In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who...who...Crap. How the hell does the rest of that--
- You and your fancy rhetorical skills. Now I'm all hot and sweaty.
- I feel like I've been hit by the Magical Mystery tour bus!
- I know those looks. You're putting the band back together, aren't you? Hold on, I'll get my bow.
- I really hate this cosmic stuff.
- I'm sort of a specialist myself. I shoot green arrows. Therefore, instead of Captain Pectorals or the Incredible Moose, they call me... Green Arrow. And as such, I'm not exactly chopped liver.
- Let me guess... I forgot to put the lid down again.
- Yeah -- that's me!! Vigilante, mayor, playboy, hypocrite. And the guy with swords to your throat... now let's talk about limits...
- Now you know... You almost died... could have died... but most important -- you got your ass kicked. And don't forget... don't you ever forget, Mr. Brickwell... who was wearing the boots.
- Freeze, butt monkeys!!!
