The Joker
- Right Now...
They need you right now, but when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper! You see, their morals, their code, it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these... these civilized people, they'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve.
The Dark Knight Rises
- Mayor's Speech
That people put their faith in a murderous thug in a mask and a cape. A thug, who showed his true nature, when he betrayed the trust of this great man, and murdered him in cold blood.
