Quote1 Why do you keep acting as if he were some kind of homicidal maniac? He wanted to help people. But he went too far, and he knew it-- and he couldn't stand it. He wasn't a bad man. He was a good man...who did a bad thing. And if you can't tell the difference between the two--then what the hell are you doing here? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 You need to get off Earth for a while, and not just to the Moon. You need time to clear your head. I haven't spent enough time teaching you how to use your powers and how to not rely on them, but that's going to change. I just tossed you into this life and relied on other people to train you. I'm sorry for that, but I'm going to make it up to you. I've asked Power Girl to watch Metropolis for a week while we get away. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I may have been conceived out there in the endless depths of space... but I was born when the Rocket opened, on Earth, in America. I'll cherish always the memories Jor-El and Lara gave me... but only as curious mementos of a life that might have been. Krypton bred me, but it was Earth that gave me all I am. All that matters. It was Krypton that made me Superman... but it is the Earth that makes me Human! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Only two miles from the Daily Planet and it might as well be another planet! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I thought I had to leave to find out who I was...but it turns out I only needed to learn where I came from. Because I already know who I am. I'm a man who knows the benefit of hard work and honesty. A man who knows the difference between right and wrong. A man who can help people all over the world. I'm Clark Kent. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Use the Force, Luke. Oops, sorry! Wrong script! Use your brains! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I'm wondering the same thing...how are you shielding yourself? There's weakness against yellow in all Green Lantern rings. For that matter, Mongul's pigmentation is yellow. You shouldn't be able to affect him either. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Who is responsible for all of these amazing rescues? It could be no one else but — IMPULSE!! The greatest Justice Leaguer of all time!! Quote2

Quote1 I think I was wrong about the people of this world. They can't live together in peace... So how can outsiders like us possibly help them? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I can do many things but I can't protect you from yourselves. You have to believe in the good. You have to make sure you don't surrender your freedoms for security.

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Diabolical! Luthor knows I won't harm an old woman! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 What I think--? I think it's time people stopped worrying about what I think. John--I'm just a man. I'm honored that a brave and noble man like you would want to wear my emblem. I appreciated your concern over my reaction--but it was misplaced. And, since you asked my opinion--I think you took it off for all the wrong reasons. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 No matter what he throws at me, Luthor is going down. Quote2

Quote1 This is Kara Zor-El... my cousin from Krypton. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 There is no reason. Ever. Quote2

Quote1 I don't know what I believe anymore. Everything used to be so clear. Truth. Justice. The American Way. But now? Now, I'm not sure about anything. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Perhaps. But suppose I can't? However it happened, I've lost faith in those ideals. What if I don't find faith in them again? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Well, maybe now Leslie will have a chance to find out. A second chance. That's what America is about, really. That's the American way. Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness-- and second chances. None of us are forced into being anything we don't want to be. When I was young, I knew that I would be someone different when I grew up. I would leave home and make a new life for myself. A new start, a second chance. When I first went to Metropolis, it was filled with people who'd done the same thing. People from all over America-- from all over the world-- who went to the city to live the lives they wanted, to be the people they wanted to be. That's the idea America that was founded on, but it's not just for people born here. It's for everyone. And it's for people like me and Livewire, too. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 In my time I have come to be known as one of the most powerful beings on Earth. But before the threat of what I must now face, all my power is as nothing. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 My sin? Was to save the world. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I think about my life, about my loves, about my home, about my fight and about you…I will always be there to save you. Because I am Superman. Believe that, until the end. The end. I wonder, when it comes….who will save me? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 What I must do now is harder than anything I have ever done before. But as the last representative of law and justice on this world, it falls to me to act as judge, jury... and executioner. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 He put the entire world in danger. I'll decide when he's finished. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 My political beliefs are a private matter, and will remain so. As for Etrigan, his appeal is aimed at what is lowest in each of us. Seldom are the demons who vex us so obvious. Usually, it takes careful study to reveal them. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 People need to respect us-- and trust us. We're too powerful for them not to. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Must there be a Superman? Yes. And there always will be. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 So this is Trumadishu? I believe I flew relief supplies here a few years ago, during one of the juntas. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 He's my imperfect clone. He has most of my memories, but they're all mixed up. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Be at peace, Cleric... I won't fail you! As the stars are my witness, I will champion life over death for the rest of my days! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Sometimes, I admit, I think of Bruce as a man in a costume. Then, with some gadget from his Utility Belt, he reminds me that he has an extraordinarily inventive mind. And how lucky I am to be able to call on him. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 To use your analogy, Lois, a time comes when individuals have to leave the "family" to strike out on their own. If you set aside your emotions, you'd see how logilal this is for me. Now excuse me, I've got to go tell Perry. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 As I shed my earthly trappings, the masquerade of Superman shall end as well. I am simply Kal-El... The last son of Krypton. Quote2

Quote1 Another one who wants to kill me? Is there a factory somewhere mass-producing these guys or what? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 And don't think it's easy being Superman, Kelley. It's a struggle to live up to everyone's expectations! Quote2

Quote1 Buddy, you've had one heck of life so far... ...now welcome to the rest of it! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 As many times as I've crossed words with Intergang -- you should be aware that firing on me is more trouble than it's worth! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Let's just say... my fiancée thinks of me as her Superman! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I've got a little speech that I give to newly-arrived vigilantes. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not omniscient. I'm a busy guy, and I can't always give the street's the attention it needs. So, I can use the help. But I require in all instances that laws are obeyed and civil rights are observed. Anything less, and you'll be on the next train out. It's that simple. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Hammer? You should know better, Lois! I don't need no steenking hammer! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Don't worry about me. They raise 'em tough in Smallville. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 It doesn't matter who she is or what she's done. I'll do what I have to do to save her. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 So, from now on, whenever there are people who need my very special kind of help, it won't be a job for plain, ordinary Clark Kent... it'll be a job for Superman. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I may have been conceived out there in the endless depths of space... but I was born when the rocket opened, on Earth, in America. I'll cherish always the memories Jor-El and Lara gave me... but only as curious mementos of a life that might have been. Krypton bred me, but it was Earth that gave me all I am. All that matters. It was Krypton that made me Superman... but it is the Earth that makes me Human! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Another skirmish in the never-ending battle... another war... another crisis... but so different. So important. If I lose, everything dies. Quote2

Quote1 ...And the Prankster's still in town, and they've apparently hired him to distract me, to cover some of their activities. And I'm on a deadline. And I missed lunch. Mondays. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 To my friends and colleagues, I'm just a farm boy in the big city, trying to make his mark. To the rest of Metropolis, I've become a protector. A symbol of hope. Me? I just hope I don't screw up. It's been about two months now since I've started what Ma calls my "good work." Most of the time I get to help people in need. A week ago I was able to save a few hundred passengers in a crashing jet. They all think I'm indestructible. I wish that I were so sure. I've withstood bursting shells, thousands of volts of electricity, raging fires and countless other vicious acts of man and nature. I appear to be invulnerable. But am I? Or is it just a matter of time before I find the thing that can kill me? They think I'm fearless. But each new cataclysm gives me one sharp instant of mortal fear. Will this kill me? Am I dying right now? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 We can learn if a beautiful woman can suffer. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 A young boy fell from the sky. You took him home. You forged documents. You raised him as your own. Tell me how you did it. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 It's like I can't win. Like I'm two people, and neither one can be himself. I either have to be the indestructible hero or the shy co-worker. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 What would you do? You have a date with a woman you're madly in love with. But if you go on that date, a village full of innocent people will die a horrible death. Could you live with making that choice? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 I don't do 'yield,' Adam. I mostly do 'painful beatdown.' How many can I put you down for? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 A perfect world doesn't need a Superman. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Is that really the way people see me, Lois? Like a disaster waiting to happen? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 You've spent years trying to kill me, Luthor. You've unlocked every way to hurt me. You've built hundreds of weapons to do it. Mind if I borrow them? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Do I look like a Bizarro? Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 So much activity. So much life. So much to see. Kids. Everyday People. The natural green beauty of Metro Park. The hustle and bustle of progress. Soak it all in, Clark, ol' buddy... because this is where you definitely belong. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 "Superheroes" who don't mind killing to achieve their ends can be dangerous in the wrong hands ... these "no-nonsense" solutions of yours just don't hold water in a complex world of jet-powered apes and time travel. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 The Secret Society didn't endanger the people we love. We did. The minute we chose to spend our lives fighting for justice, we made targets out of everyone we love. And now we want to make the Society pay for the choices we've made? I don't think so. I vote no. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 Gone! Rocket was a decoy! Joker must've dropped through here instead! I hate when that happens...! Quote2

Quote1 You talk a good death scene, Metallo - but so far, its still just talk! Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 You're just a regular guy. No powers, no super-strength, no invulnerability. I know you must have good reasons for doing what you do... But I'd think twice about charging into a nasty situation if I stood a good chance of coming out of it with battle scars. Quote2

--Kal-El (New Earth)

--Kal-El (New Earth)

Quote1 We're going to finish this. Once and for all. You're different now. You can think for yourself. So think about this. Before, you were a mindless thing. Nothing could hurt you. You couldn't feel pain. Much less understand it. But, once you have felt it -- it changes you forever. And you'll begin to understand something new. Fear. I've lived with it all my life. You don't want to die again, do you? The agony of what's happened to you affects your speed -- your strength -- and that little bit of doubt -- that you cannot win today -- grows. You understand now, don't you? You will never hurt me again. You will never kill me again. NEVER AGAIN! Quote2

Quote1 You know, there are many who still think that the Batman is a psychotic vigilante, no better than the vermin he hunts down. I think they're wrong. I think the Batman is simply a very sane man who tries to bring justice to an often insane world. We are very different, you and I-- but I like to think that we're working for a similar cause. Quote2
