THE DARK KNIGHT (2008) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ Look at you. What do you believe in, huh? ❜
❛ I believe whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you…stranger. ❜
❛ What gives you the right? What’s the difference between you and me? ❜
❛ Whenever you stitch yourself up, you do make a bloody mess. ❜
❛ Did you get mauled by a tiger? ❜
❛ That wasn’t exactly what I had in mind when I said I wanted to inspire people. ❜
❛ Who [name] spends her time with is her business. ❜
❛ We all know how much you like to say “I told you so.” ❜
❛ They’re trying to kill you, means we’re getting to them. ❜
❛ You’re not getting shot at, you’re not doing your job right. ❜
❛ But, you know, if you said you were rattled, we could take the rest of the day off. ❜
❛ I don’t get political points for being an idealist. I do the best I can with what I have. ❜
❛ How could you want to raise children in a city like this? ❜
❛ You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. ❜
❛ If I were sneaking out every night, someone would’ve noticed by now. ❜
❛ For obvious reasons, I couldn’t wait for your permission. ❜
❛ And I thought my jokes were bad. ❜
❛ I mean, what happened? Did your balls drop off? ❜
❛ If it’s so simple, why haven’t you done it already? ❜
❛ If you’re good at something, never do it for free. ❜
❛ You think you can steal from us and just walk away? ❜
❛ If I get him to you, can you get him to talk? ❜
❛ I knew the risk when I took this job. ❜
❛ We wouldn’t wanna make things too easy, now, would we? ❜
❛ If you can tell me the Russian for “apply your own bloody suntan lotion.”. ❜
❛ You wanna know how I got these scars? ❜
❛ Let’s put a smile on that face. ❜
❛ I think a simple phone call might have sufficed. ❜
❛ Oh, you mean, when they find out that you’ve helped us, they’re gonna kill you? ❜
❛ They’re all gonna come after you now. ❜
❛ Look at me. Look at me! ❜
❛ People will die. Starting tonight. I’m a man of my word. ❜
❛ Any psychotic ex-boyfriends I should be aware of? ❜
❛ [name] may not know you well enough to understand you’re making fun of him, but I do. ❜
❛ You can’t ask me to wait for that. ❜
❛ You can’t leave me alone with these people. ❜
❛ It makes you think about things you couldn’t stand losing, about who you wanna spend your life with. ❜
❛ Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We are tonight’s entertainment. ❜
❛ You know, you remind me of my father. I hated my father. ❜
❛ Well, hello, beautiful. ❜
❛ You look nervous. Is it the scars? ❜
❛ Now I see the funny side. Now I’m always smiling. ❜
❛ You got a little fight in you. I like that. ❜
❛ You can’t protect me. You can’t even protect yourselves. ❜
❛ Criminals aren’t complicated. We just need to figure out what he’s after. ❜
❛ Some men aren’t looking for anything logical, like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. ❜
❛ Some men just wanna watch the world burn. ❜
❛ Whatever you’re gonna do, do it fast. ❜
❛ You brought this craziness on us. You did! You brought this on us! ❜
❛ Is there someone, is there anyone in this town we can trust? ❜
❛ From one professional to another, you’re trying to scare somebody, pick a better spot. From this height, the fall wouldn’t kill me. ❜
❛ Heads, you get to keep your head. Tails…not so lucky. ❜
❛ You’d leave a man’s life to chance? ❜
❛ You’re the symbol of hope I could never be. ❜
❛ No one else will die because of me. ❜
❛ You once told me that if the day came when I was finished, that we’d be together. Did you mean it? ❜
❛ Don’t make me your one hope for a normal life. ❜
❛ If you turn yourself in, they’re not gonna let us be together. ❜
❛ People are dying. What would you have me do? ❜
❛ Accomplice? I’m gonna tell them the whole thing was your idea. ❜
❛ The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming. ❜
❛ He’s not being a hero. He’s being something more. ❜
❛ This is your life. You can’t leave something like that to chance. ❜
❛ You can’t stop here. We’re like sitting ducks! ❜
❛ Come on. I want you to do it, I want you to do it. Come on, hit me. Hit me! ❜
❛ You do like to play things pretty close to the chest. ❜
❛ I’ve got a date with a pretty upset girlfriend. ❜
❛ No matches on prints, DNA, dental. No name. No other alias. ❜
❛ Nothing in his pockets but knives and lint. ❜
❛ I’m sorry, I couldn’t risk your safety. ❜
❛ Does it depress you, to know just how alone you really are? ❜
❛ If we’re gonna play games, I’m gonna need a cup of coffee. ❜
❛ Never start with the head. The victim gets all fuzzy. He can’t feel the next… ❜
❛ You wanted me. Here I am. ❜
❛ I wanted to see what you’d do. And you didn’t disappoint. ❜
❛ But I know the truth. There’s no going back. You’ve changed things. Forever. ❜
❛ I don’t wanna kill you. What would I do without you? ❜
❛ Don’t talk like one of them. You’re not. Even if you’d like to be. ❜
❛ When the chips are down, these civilized people…they’ll eat each other. ❜
❛ See, I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve. ❜
❛ You have all these rules, and you think they’ll save you. ❜
❛ The only sensible way to live is without rules. ❜
❛ You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with. Nothing to do with all your strength. ❜
❛ How many of your friends have I killed? ❜
❛ It’s gonna be fine. It’s gonna be all right. They’re coming for you. ❜
❛ Do you wanna know why I use a knife? Guns are too quick. You can’t savor all the little emotions. ❜
❛ You see, in their last moments, people show you who they really are. ❜
❛ I’m sorry to let you down. If you lose your faith in me, please keep your faith in people. ❜
❛ Things always get worse before they get better. ❜
❛ Why should I hide who I am? ❜
❛ This town deserves a better class of criminal, and I’m gonna give it to them. ❜
❛ Tell your men they work for me now. ❜
❛ Why don’t we cut you up into little pieces and feed you to your pooches? Hm? And then we’ll see how loyal a hungry dog really is. ❜
❛ It’s not about money, it’s about sending a message. ❜
❛ Do I really look like a guy with a plan? ❜
❛ You know what I am? I’m a dog chasing cars. I wouldn’t know what to do with one if I caught it. ❜
❛ Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. ❜
❛ Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? It’s fair. ❜
❛ Don’t watch a whole lot of news, do you? ❜
❛ Shouldn’t you be out there, you know, doing something? ❜
❛ This is too much power for one person. ❜
❛ I’ll help you this one time. But consider this my resignation. ❜
❛ Look, if I tell you, will you let me go? ❜
❛ What exactly did you think they were gonna do? ❜
❛ It’s not that simple. It never is. ❜
❛ Ah, you made it. I’m so thrilled. ❜
❛ You don’t wanna die, but you don’t know how to take a life. ❜
❛ We really should stop this fighting, otherwise we’ll miss the fireworks. ❜
❛ Can’t rely on anyone these days. You gotta do everything yourself. Don’t we? ❜
❛ You just couldn’t let me go, could you? ❜
❛ This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. ❜
❛ I think you and I are destined to do this forever. ❜
❛ Madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push. ❜
❛ You wouldn’t dare try to justify yourself if you knew what I’d lost. ❜
❛ Have you ever had to talk to the person you loved most, tell them it’s gonna be alright, when you know it’s not? ❜
❛ It’s not about what I want, it’s about what’s fair! ❜
❛ You thought we could be decent men in an indecent time. But you were wrong. ❜
❛ People will lose hope. ❜
❛ A hero. Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed. ❜
❛ Because sometimes the truth isn’t good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. ❜
❛ He’s the hero we deserve, but not the one we need right now. ❜
