“I've spent more than four decades cultivating a life of stealth. I have over twenty passports, twice as many identities. I pride myself on being no one. The vague shape of a man sitting acoss from you on the train. An outline, a charcoal sketch.

Forty years of creating a life in the shadows...

All to find myself driving down Broadway on the hood of giant bat-themed dump truck. And it suddenly occurs to me...

That I might actually hate Batman.”
― Scott Snyder, Absolute Batman, Vol. 1: The Zoo

“There is no possibility that any perceptible change will happen within our own lifetime. We are the dead. Our only true life is in the future. We shall take part in it as handfuls of dust and splinters of bone.”

“How Shesheshen wanted one of the hunters to stop this. For one of them to stand up for common sense, if not for the rights of a young damsel. A damsel who had offered them a perfectly good reason to get lost for a few weeks.

But humans never stood up for the right thing. They stood around feeling uncomfortable, and later pretended that feeling uncomfortable meant they were virtuous. Now Malik stood to one side, only slightly obstructing Wulfyre's path. Surely he'd feel awful about this tomorrow when he was spending his blood money, before running of with his partner to the next kill.

And they called her monstrous.”
