Christian Bale (back to the C list / B list)

Alice Evans: Ben Wade has a gang and they're out there tonight, somewhere.

Dan Evans: If I don't go, we gotta pack up and leave. Now I'm tired, Alice. I'm tired of watching my boys go hungry. I'm tired of the way that they look at me. I'm tired of the way that you don't.

Dan Evans: You say one more word, and I'll cut you down right here.

Ben Wade: I like this side of you, Dan.

Alice Evans: Don't do it, Dan. No one will think less of you.

Dan Evans: No one can think less of me.

Patrick Bateman: I don't want to get you drunk, but, ah, that's a very fine Chardonnay you're not drinking.

Patrick Bateman: Harold, it's Bateman, Patrick Bateman. You're my lawyer so I think you should know: I've killed a lot of people. Some girls in the apartment uptown, uh, some homeless people maybe 5 or 10, um, an NYU girl I met in Central Park. I left her in a parking lot behind some donut shop. I killed Bethany, my old girlfriend, with a nail gun, and some man, uh, some old faggot with a dog last week. I killed another girl with a chainsaw, I had to, she almost got away, and, uh, someone else there I can't remember, maybe a model, but she's dead too. And Paul Allen. I killed Paul Allen with an axe in the face, his body is dissolving in a bathtub in Hell's Kitchen. I don't want to leave anything out here. I guess I've killed maybe 20 people, maybe 40. I have tapes of a lot of it, uh, some of the girls have seen the tapes. I even, um... I ate some of their brains, and I tried to cook a little. Tonight I, uh, I just had to kill a LOT of people. And I'm not sure I'm gonna get away with it this time. I guess I'll uh, I mean, ah, I guess I'm a pretty uh, I mean I guess I'm a pretty sick guy. So, if you get back tomorrow, I may show up at Harry's Bar, so you know, keep your eyes open.

Patrick Bateman: You're a fucking ugly bitch. I want to stab you to death, and then play around with your blood.

Patrick Bateman: I'm on a diet.

Jean: What, you're kidding, right? You look great... so fit... and thin.

Patrick Bateman: Well, you can always be thinner... look better.

Jean: Then maybe we shouldn't go out to dinner. I wouldn't want you to lose your willpower.

Patrick Bateman: That's okay. I'm not very good at controlling it anyway.

Patrick Bateman: I like to dissect girls. Did you know I'm utterly insane?

Bruce Wayne: They told me there was nothing out there, nothing to fear. But the night my parents were murdered I caught a glimpse of something. I've looked for it ever since. I went around the world, searched in all the shadows. And there is something out there in the darkness, something terrifying, something that will not stop until it gets revenge. Me.

[The batmobile screeches to a halt.]

Lucius Fox: So what you do you think?

Bruce Wayne: Does it come in black?

Bruce Wayne: A guy who dresses as a bat clearly has issues.

Detective Flass: That's all I know, I swear to God!

Batman: SWEAR TO ME!

Alfred: Time to get up.

Bruce Wayne: Bats are nocturnal.

Alfred: That may be, but even for billionaire playboys, 3:00 is pushing it.

Bruce Wayne: I knew the mob wouldn't go down without a fight. But this is different. They crossed the line.

Alfred Pennyworth: You crossed the line first, sir. You hammered them. And in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand. Some men aren't looking for anything logical. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Harvey Dent: Rachel's told me everything about you.

Bruce Wayne: I certainly hope not.

Bruce Wayne: People are dying. What would you have me do?

Alfred Pennyworth: Endure. You can be the outcast. You can make the choice that no one else will face - the right choice. Gotham needs you.

Alfred Pennyworth: Know your limits, Master Wayne.

Bruce Wayne: Batman has no limits.

Batman: Why do you want to kill me?

The Joker: I don't want to kill you. What would I do without you?

Mary: Let me ask you something. Why are you alive?

John Preston: I'm alive... I live... to safeguard the continuity of this great society. To serve Libria.

Mary: It's circular. You exist to continue your existence. What's the point?

John Preston: What's the point of your existence?

Mary: To feel. 'Cause you've never done it, you can never know it. But it's as vital as breath. And without it, without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock... ticking.

John Preston: I'll do what I can to see they go easy on you.

Partridge: We both know they never "go easy".

John Preston: Then, I'm sorry.

Partridge: No, you're not. You don't even know the meaning. Its just a vestigial word for a feeling you've never felt.

John Preston: Then I have no choice but to remand you to the Palace of Justice for processing.

Mary: Processing. You mean execution, don't you?

John Preston: Processing.

John Preston: You're an offender!

Reading Room Proprietor: I'm not!

John Preston: No? Then why are you so scared of me?

Marie: Trevor, is someone chasing you?

Trevor Reznik: Not yet. But they will when they find out who I am.

Stevie: Are you okay?

Trevor Reznik: Don't I look okay?

Stevie: If you were any thinner, you wouldn't exist.

DMV Clerk: I'm sorry, sir, but we don't provide motorist information to the general public.

Trevor Reznik: I'm not just a member of the general public. This guy's a friend of mine.

DMV Clerk: But you don't know your friend's address?

Trevor Reznik: We just met. I don't know him that well.

DMV Clerk: Sir, this is the DMV, not a dating service.

Ivan: Looks like rain. Radio says there's a storm comin' in.

Trevor Reznik: Guess they're right.

Ivan: If you ask me, it's already here.

Ivan: Oh, no. You look like you seen a ghost.

Trevor Reznik: Funny you should say that. The guys at work don't think you exist.

Ivan: That's why I can't get a raise.

Alfred Borden: You went halfway around the world. You spent a fortune. You did terrible things. Really terrible things Robert. And all for nothing.

Alfred Borden: So... we go alone now. Both of us. Only I don't have as far to go as you. Go. You were right, I should have left him to his damn trick. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for a lot of things. I'm sorry about Sarah. I didn't mean to hurt her... I didn't. You go and live your life in full now, all right? You live for both of us.

Fallon: Goodbye.

Sarah: I know what you really are. And Alfred, I can't live like this.

Alfred Borden: Oh, you think I can live like this? You think I bloody enjoy, living like this? We have a beautiful house, lovely little girl, we're married, what is so wrong with your life?

Sarah: Alfred, I can't live like this!

Alfred Borden: Well, what do you want from me?

Sarah: I want... I want you to be honest with me. No tricks, no lies, no secrets. Do you... do you love me?

Alfred Borden: Not today. No.

Alfred Borden: The secret impresses no one. The trick you use it for is everything.

John Connor: I knew it. I knew it was coming. But this is not the future my mother warned me about. And in this future, I don't know if we can win this war. This is John Connor.

John Connor: If we stay the course, we are dead! WE ARE ALL DEAD!
