circumstances have taught me that a man's ethics are the only possessions he will take beyond the grave. you measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you. let me tell you something my friend. hope is a dangerous thing. hope can drive a man insane. i don't think they tried to market it to the billionaire, spelunking, base-jumping crowd. bruce... i'm god. the man likes to play chess; let's get him some rocks. that tall drink of water with the silver spoon up his ass. mister wayne, if you don't want to tell me exactly what you're doing, when i'm asked, i don't have to lie. but don't think of me as an idiot. it only took me six days. same time it took the lord to make the world. boxing is about respect. getting it for yourself, and taking it away from the other guy. cities fall but they are rebuilt. heroes die but they are remembered. i once heard a wise man say there are no perfect men. only perfect intentions.
