“Oh, my goodness gracious! I've been bamboozled!

-Jason Todd”
― Judd Winick

“Hey, it's going to be hard to learn a great many things about me, but one I'll you for free...
I am no one's son.”

“Jason Todd: Bruce, I forgive you for not saving me. But why? Why on God's Earth is HE still alive? Ignoring what he's done in the past. Blindly, stupidly, disregarding the entire graveyards he's filled, the thousands who have suffered, the friends he's crippled. You know, I thought... I thought I'd be the last person you'd ever let him hurt. If it had been you he beat to a bloody pulp, if he had taken you from this world, I would've done nothing but search the planet for this pathetic pile of evil death-worshiping garbage and sent him off to Hell.
Bruce: You don't understand. I don't think you've ever understood.
Jason: What? What, your moral code just won't allow for that? It's too hard to cross that line?
Bruce: No! God almighty, no. It'd be too damned easy. All I've ever wanted to do is kill him. But if I do that... if I allow myself to go down into that place... I'll never come back.
Jason: Why? I'm not talking about killing Penguin, or Scarecrow, or Dent. I'm talking about him. Just him. And doing it because... because he took me away from you.”
― Judd Winick, Batman: Under the Red Hood

“Batman can create as many crappy trophies as he wants. They don't change a thing. They’re built on lies and sand. And they will fall. Like his whole damn world. It’s important for me to stay on mission. No distractions. I’m here to make sure I can follow his moves throughout the city. Not get caught up in his imaginary nostalgia. There’s nothing to be gained getting caught up in his gravity. Nothing.”
― Peter J. Tomasi, Batman: Arkham Knight Genesis

“I am one hundred percent confident that you will screw up, Robin. You'll jump to conclusions. You'll make mistakes. You're bound to fail spectacularly, at least once. I didn't ask you to be Robin because I wanted someone perfect. I wanted someone who can do their best. Who can learn from their mistakes. Someone who makes me a better person just by being them. So tell me...is that you, Jason?”
― Scott Lobdell, Red Hood and the Outlaws, Vol. 1: Dark Trinity
