“It’s intriguing to speculate how much latent (or blatant) homophobia lay behind that vote. Did the fans decide to kill off Jason Todd so as to redeem Batman for unproblematic heterosexuality? Impossible to say.”

“Look at me. Do you see terror? Do you see fear? Or is it just your own reflection?"

"You're right. I see my reflection in your eyes--And it's kicking your ass!”

“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

“Cinderella? Snow White? What's that? An illness?”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
