Quotes by J.M. DeMatteis (?)

“I watch them through the glass: specimens. Flies. I watch them. And I know. In ways normal men cannot: I know. I see thing: beyond things. I see the strands of fate that bind us: victims to victor. So let them scream; let them shout my name. My ears hear nothing but the weaving of the web.”
― J.M. DeMatteis

“Batwoman: "What was it like growing up with him?"

Nightwing: "When I was a kid, I idolized him. Hell... I wanted to be him. But the older I got, the more I realized that I didn't know him at all.
How could I? Bruce Wayne is as much a mask as Batman. And I think the only thing behind those masks is pain. A pain he refuses to share with anyone."

Batwoman: "So what was it like?"

Nightwing: "Lonely.”
― J.M. DeMatteis

“Writers like to believe they're in control of their material, but that's just a comforting lie. After more than twenty-five years of making my life as storyteller, it's become extremely -sometimes painfully- clear to me that I'm just a vehicle, a way for the story to get out into the world. But it's the story itself that does the telling.”
― J.M. DeMatteis, The Amazing Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt
