Batman Begins 2005
In the, uh, meantime, Sir, may I suggest you try to avoid landing on your head?
But a criminal is not complicated. What you really fear is inside yourself. You fear your own power. You fear your anger, the drive to do great or terrible things.
That's why you couldn't fight injustice and that's why you can't stop this train!
That impossible anger strangling the grief, until the memory of your loved one is just... poison in your veins.
I'm gonna show the people of Gotham their city doesn't belong to the criminals and the corrupt.
Justice is balance. You burned my house and left me for dead. Consider us even.
Look around you: you'll see two councilmen, a union official, a couple off-duty cops, and a judge.
But we underestimated certain of Gotham's citizens... such as your parents.
Surely, a man who spends his nights scrambling over the rooftops of Gotham wouldn't begrudge me dual identities?
If those are to be the first of many injuries to come, it would be wise to find a suitable excuse. Polo, for instance.
The price of leading a double life, I fear. Your theatrics made an impression.
A vigilante is just a man lost in the scramble for his own gratification.
I warned you about compassion, Bruce.

The Wayne legacy is more than bricks and mortar, sir.

Justice is about harmony. Revenge is about you making yourself feel better.
Of course. Over the ages, our weapons have grown more sophisticated.

Armed robbery, double homicide, has a taste for the theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card.
What makes you think *you* can decide who's running Wayne Enterprises?

Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

We are back to finish the job. And this time no misguided idealists will get in the way.

It's a... black... tank ?

He believed that his example could inspire the wealthy of Gotham to save their city.
If someone stands in the way of true justice... you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart.
And why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up.

And one day, you catch yourself wishing the person you loved had never existed, so you would be spared your pain.
You haven't thought about your lady-friend down at the D.A.'s office. You haven't thought about your old butler.
People talk about the depression as if its history, and it's not.

So, don't-don't come down here with your anger, trying to prove something to yourself.
I thought this might be a good opportunity for improving the foundations.
You're, uh, you're Bruce Wayne, the Prince of Gotham; you'd have to go a thousand miles to meet someone who didn't know your name.
What will it take to bring him down?

In the depression, your father nearly bankrupted Wayne Enterprises combating poverty.
Bats may be, but even for billionaire playboys, three o'clock is pushing it.
Mister Wayne, if you don't want to tell me exactly what you're doing, when I'm asked, I don't have to lie.
But I know the rage that drives you.

I analyzed your blood, isolating the receptor compounds and the protein-based catalyst.
Not at all, I just wanted you to know how hard it was.

This is a world you'll never understand. And you always fear what you don't understand.
Theatricality and deception are powerful weapons, Alfred. It's a good start.
I thought the point of solitary confinement was the solitary part.

Now, you think because your mommy and your daddy got shot, you know about the ugly side of life, but you don't.
And when I traveled, I learned the fear before a crime and the thrill of success.
You've never tasted desperate.

You're taller than you look in the tabloids, Mr. Wayne.

People from your world have so *much* to lose.

Their deaths galvanized the city into saving itself... and Gotham has limped on ever since.
You care about justice? Look beyond your own pain, Bruce.

I assume that as you're taking on the underworld, this symbol is a persona to protect those you care about from reprisals.
You expecting to run into much gunfire in these caves?

People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne.
Your parents' death was not your fault.

But if you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely.
Men fear most what they cannot see.

I lost many assumptions about the simple nature of right and wrong.

You really started something. Bent cops running scared, hope on the streets.

You start pretending to have fun, you might even have a little by accident.

Because you think you got nothing to lose. But you haven't thought it through.

In a way. Their murder shocked the wealthy and the powerful into action.

You cannot lead these men unless you are prepared to do what is necessary to defeat evil.

When a forest grows too wild, a purging fire is inevitable and natural.

You never learned to mind your surroundings!

Well, I just couldn't figure the legal ramifications of bringing you back from the dead.
Deep down you may still be that same great kid you used to be.

Strange injuries a non-existent social life, these things beg the question as to what exactly does Bruce Wayne do with his time and his money.
But it's not who you are underneath, it's what you do that defines you.
Taste of your own medicine, doctor?

Tomorrow the world will watch in horror as its greatest city destroys itself.

As a man, I'm flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed; but as a symbol... as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting.
I hope you're not a member of the fire brigade.
