“All my father ever told me was “don’t get caught” and “don’t cause a scandal.” That’s not love, it’s public relations. You have no idea how lucky you are. When my father dies, kings will come to his funeral but when yours does, his friends will come.”
― Lex Luthor, Smallville

“Clark, love isn’t about playing it safe, it’s about risks. Unless you’re willing to put yourself out there, you’ll never know.”
― Lex Luthor, Smallville

“I’m the only sane inmate of Asylum Earth. I’m not eager to hand tomorrow over to an interplanetary extremist with laser eyes. There’s only room on this world for one leader, Superman.

― Lex Luthor, Birthright

“Lois, Superman is what I can do. Clark is who I am.”
― Clark Kent
