― The Joker (Batman The Killing Joke)
"You didn't think I would risk losing the battle for Gotham's soul in a fist fight with you. No, you need an ace in the hole. Mine's Harvey. I took Gotham's white knight and brought him down to our level. It wasn't hard. See madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push."
