从剧本摘的，自己喜欢的一些
Christopher Nolan & David S. Goyer
BANK MANAGER: Criminals in this town used to believe in things…
"BATMAN" (CONT' D): What gives you the right?! What's the difference between you and me?!
WAYNE: But I learn about my mistakes.
ALFRED: Know your limits, Master Wayne.
RACHEL: I’m serious, Harvey, you don’t leave things like this to chance.
DENT: I don't. (sincere) I make my own luck.
GORDON: If I didn't work with cops you'd investigated while you were making your name at I.A.- I'd be working alone. I don't get political points for being an idealist- I have to do the best I can with what I have.
DENT: Gotham's proud of an ordinary man standing up for what's right.
NATASCHA: Gotham needs heroes like you elected officials, not a man who thinks he's above the law.
DENT: When their enemies were at the gate, the Romans would suspend democracy and appoint one man to protect the city. It wasn't considered an honor. It was considered public service.
DENT: Well, I guess you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
THE JOKER: A guy like me… I know why you're holding your little group therapy ~, session in broad daylight. I know why you're afraid to go out at night. Batman. He's shown Gotham your true colors. And Dent's just the beginning. (Indicates Lau) And as for his so-called plan Batman has no jurisdiction. He'll find him and make him squeal. (Smiles at Lau) I can tell the squealers every time.
GORDON: We're going after the mob's life savings. Things will get ugly.
THE JOKER (CONT ): Why so serious?
THE JOKER: Starting tonight. I'm a man of my word.
WAYNE (shakes his head) I meant every word.
WAYNE: Gotham needs a hero with a face.
DENT: Compared to this, the mob doesn't scare me. Although, I will say: them gunning for you makes you see things clearly.
DENT: Yeah. It makes you think about what you couldn't stand losing. And who you want to spend the rest of your life with ...
ALFRED: Because he thought it was good sport. Because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money ... they can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. (grave) Some men just want to watch the world burn.
BATMAN: You're the symbol of hope that I could never be.
ALFRED: Endure, Master Wayne. Take it. They'll hate you for it, but that's the point of Batman ... he can be the outcast. He can make the choice no one else can face. The right choice.
DENT: Yes. They are. But the night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming. (the crowd quiets) One day, the Batman will have to answer for the laws he’s broken but to us, not to this madman.
ALFRED: Perhaps both Bruce and Mr.Dent believe that Batman stands for something more important than a terrorist's whims, Miss Dawes, even if everyone hates him for it. That's the sacrifice he's making to not be a hero. To be something more.
THE JOKER: Those mob fools want you gone so they can get back to the way things were. But I know the truththere's no going back. You've changed things. Forever.
THE JOKER: I don't want to kill would I do without you? ripping off Mob dealers?
Kill you? you. What Go back to No you… (points) You. Complete. Me.
THE JOKER: Don't talk like one of them- you're not, even if you'd like to be. To
them you're a freak like me… they just need you right now.
THE JOKER (CONT'D): 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. You'll see- I'll show you … when the chips are down, these civilized people… they'll eat each other. (grins) See, I'm not a monster ... I'm just ahead of the curve.
THE JOKER: Then that's the one you'll have to break. To know the truth.
THE JOKER: (smiles) The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.
Tonight you're going to break your one rule…
THE JOKER
Killing is making a choice…
THE JOKER:…you choose one life over the other. Your friend, the district attorney. Or his blushing bride to be.
THE JOKER (CONT'D): I'm a dog chasing cars ... I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it. I just do things. I'm just the wrench in the gears. I hate plans. Yours, theirs, everyone's. Maroni has plans. Gordon has plans. Schemers trying to control their worlds. I'm not a schemer, I show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are. So when I say that you and your girlfriend was nothing personal, you know I'm telling the truth…
THE JOKER: It's the schemers who put where you are. You where a schemer You had plans. Look where it got you. I just did what I do best I took your plan, and I turned it on itself. Look what I've done to this city with a few drum of gas and a couple of bullets. Nobody panics when the expected people get killed. Nobody panics when things go according to plan, eve if the plan is horrifying. If I tell the press that tomorrow a gangbanger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics. Because it's all art of the plan. But when I say that one little old mayor will die, everybody loses their minds! Introduce a little anarchy, you upset the established order and everything becomes chaos. 1 'm an agent of chaos. And you know the thing about chaos, Harvey?
THE JOKER: Maybe we can share it need to double up, the city's inhabitants are minds…They'll rate this losing their
THE JOKER: Till their spirit breaks completely. Until they find out what I did with the best of them. Until they get a good look at the real Harvey Dent, and all the heroic things he's done. (indicates ferry) Then those criminals will be straight back onto the streets and Gotham will understand the true nature of heroism.
THE JOKER: I took Gotham's white knight. And I brought him down to my level. It wasn't hard- madness is like gravity. All it takes is a little push.
DENT: It's not about what I want. It's about what's fair. (to Gordon and Batman) You thought we could be decent men in an indecent world. You thought we could lead by example. You thought the rules could be bent but not break. you were wrong. The world is cruel (shows his coin) And the only morality in a cruel world is chance. Unbiased. Unprejudiced. Fair.
BATMAN (CONT'D): You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. I can do those things because I'm not a hero, like Dent. I killed those people. That's what I can be.
GORDON: ... a hero. Not the hero we deserved- the hero we needed. Nothing less than a knight.
Shining…
BATMAN (v.o.) (CONT'D) Because sometimes the truth isn't good enough ... sometimes, people deserve more.
GORDON (V.O.)… he's the hero Gotham deserves …but not the one it needs right now.
So we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero ...
