Trampled Quotes

Clark Kent: Civil liberties are being trampled on in your city; good people living in fear.
Bruce Wayne: Don't believe everything you hear, son.
Clark Kent: I've seen it, Mr. Wayne. He thinks he's above the law.
Bruce Wayne: The Daily Planet criticizing those who think they're above the law is a little

hypocritical, wouldn't you say? Considering every time your hero saves a cat out of a tree, you write a puff piece editorial about an alien who, if he wanted to, could burn the whole place down. There wouldn't be a damn thing we can do to stop it.
Clark Kent: Most of the world doesn't share your opinion, Mr. Wayne.
Bruce Wayne: Maybe it's that Gotham

City and me... we just have a bad history with freaks dressed like clowns.

Writer: So, you were raised in a zoo?
Adult Pi Patel: Born and raised. In Pondicherry, in what was the French part of India. My father owned the zoo, and I was delivered on short notice by a herpetologist, who was there to check on the Bengal monitor lizard. Mother and I were both healthy, but the poor lizard escaped and was trampled by

a frightened cassowary. The way of karma, huh? The way of God.

General: [Riding in a truck full of troops on its way to deal with Kong] Listen up. This is New York City, and this is sacred ground. You hear me? It was built for humans, by humans. Not for stinking lice-infested apes. The thought of some mutant gorilla crapping all over the streets of this fair city fills me with disgust. So this is how it's going to be: We find it. We kill it. We cut its ugly

head off and we ram it up...
[the truck is immediately trampled by Kong]

Hiccup: [narrating] This is Berk. A bit trampled and busted and covered in ice, but it's home. It's our home. Those who attacked us are relentless and crazy, but those who stopped them - oh-h-h-h-h, even more so! We may be small in numbers, but we stand for something bigger than anything the world can pin against us. We are the voice of peace, and, bit by bit,

we will change this world. You see, we have something they don't. Oh, sure, they have armies, and they have armadas, but we... we have...
[Toothless roars]
Hiccup: ...OUR DRAGONS!

Doctor: We cannot wait any longer, Tribune!
Messala: [shouts] He will come! He will come. I have sent for him, and

he will come!
Doctor: If you wish us to keep you alive, we have to go to work *now*, Tribune. Do you understand?

[struggling] NO!
[Judah appears in the doorway]

[he convulses with pain]
Messala: You think they're dead, your mother and sister? Dead, and the race over? It isn't over, Judah. They're not dead.
Judah Ben-Hur: [leaning closer] Where are they?
[pause]

Judah Ben-Hur: Where are they? WHERE ARE THEY?
Messala: [with grim satisfaction] Look... look for them... in the Valley... of the Lepers! If you can recognize them!
[Judah doubles over with grief]
Messala: It goes on. It goes on, Judah. The race... the race... is not... over!

Aidan Hall: Well don't call her Dollface... Moron.
