On this thread, post quotes from comic characters. Any quote by a comic character that has relevance to you. It could be a funny quote (SpiderMan), an awesomeness quote (Doctor Doom), or just a plain profound quote (Captain America).
I will start with several of my favorite quotes.
"I am Moon Knight, the bearer of the mantle of Khonshu. Khonshu the justice bringer. I am vengeance." --Moon Knight
"But I am called the Martian Manhunter. I am Mars' sole survivor. There is a reason for that." --Martian Manhunter
"Two there should be. No more, no less. One to embody the power, the other to crave it." --Darth Bane
"Sgt. Essen informed me that Wayne's parents were murdered by a mugger when he was eight years old. That's enough motive, I suppose, to make a man dress up like Dracula and assault criminals." --Commissioner Gordon
"I am Exar Kun. I am the greatest Dark Lord of the Sith." --Exar Kun
"His parents, circus acrobats, had been murdered. And I..wanted to make a difference in his life." --BatMan
"Before I became Captain America, I was a civilian, and I suppose there's still a part of me that wants to enjoy the liberties I fight for in that same way. Just like every other man." --Captain America
"In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, beware my power, Green Lantern's light." --Green Lantern
"Dick, I remember you swinging down to the ground as your parents climbed the ladder. Your mother was first; your father followed. And then it happened. Their trapeze rope snapped, and they fell. I turned away. I couldn't watch. Then I heard you crying, and I turned back and saw your holding onto them. And I began crying too." --Tim Drake
"When a person lies, his heartbeat accelerates. And my hearing, is sensitive enough, to detect that change." --Daredevil
"I live as energy. I am the dark side." --Darth Sidious
"I decided early that I would never take a life, right around the time time I decided that I wanted to live. It wasn't an arbitrary decision, and it was more than just moral. It's about identity. As long you can choose that, choose who you are in the world, you can choose to call yourself sane." --BatMan
"Rivals... No one rivals Doom! No one! Doom is supreme! There is no power on earth, no intellect in all creation to equal mine!" --Doctor Doom
"But a good death is better than a life enslaved to hatred, and peace is better than anguish." --Luke Skywalker
"All my life, I fought to become a symbol. A symbol of all the things that were right about this country. All the things I loved. And now, they're trying to turn that symbol into whatever's most convenient, whatever will best serve the political agenda of one side or another. I can hear them talking nonstop. The media. The press. They don't understand. It was never about politics. It was never about me. It was about the country. But they can't hear that truth above their own voices." --Captain America
"Tell me what you regard as your greatest strength, so I will know how best to undermine you; tell me of your greatest fear, so I will know which I must force you to face; tell me what you cherish most, so I will know what to take from you; and tell me what you crave, so that I might deny you." --Darth Plagueis
"Black Adam mows through wave after wave of my friends. In spite of their fear, no matter the pain, one sentiment echoes through their minds. 'Get up. Stop Black Adam.' It is a mantra of courage. I am humbled by their determination. This is no longer a battle defined by human nature. The time for thought has long since passed. It is about who I am, and what I choose to be. It is not about thought. It is about what I do." --Martian Manhunter
"T'Challa thinks that he has set a trap for me, tricked me into the open. But in his arrogance, he has played into my trap, and as a result, I have done what no one else has managed in ten thousands years. I have conquered Wakanda." --Doctor Doom
"Yes, you knew, didn't you. You've grown very strong in the Force since last we met, but then so have I. It was not the first time I died, nor will it be the last. Such are the mysteries of the dark side of the Force. You see, my friend, flesh does not easily support this great power. For many years, I have been under a dire necessity. My body has decayed again and again, and each time, I have needed to take another. A humble clone of the man I once was. Yes, young Skywalker. The dying is painful, the transition is not an enjoyable experience. But the suffering is a small price to pay for eternal life. After all, I exist primarily as energy and power." --Darth Sidious
"People think it's an obsession, a compulsion. As if there were an irresistible impulse to act. It's never been like that. I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day, and tomorrow won't be either." --BatMan
