Bruce and Ra's Al Ghul in “Avatar”

You've got a serious priority problem, Ra's. What can be in that tomb that's more valuable than the love of your daughter?

RSRa's Al Ghul

Power, detective. The power once held by almighty Thoth-Khepera, Queen of Two Continents.

You surprise me, Ra's. The world's oldest chauvinist chasing after a woman?

RSRa's Al Ghul

Thoth-Khepera was not simply a woman, detective, nor merely a ruler. Through her flowed the power of the gods. With no more than a gesture, she controlled the force of life and death, and with it, she kept a nation under her thumb for one thousand years.

You sound like a bad Saturday afternoon serial, Ra's. This is sheer nonsense.

RSRa's Al Ghul

No, detective - I know there is a power there to be tapped! My six hundred years of life are proof of that power.

[Bruce and Talia are trapped in a glass booth]

RSRa's Al Ghul

Farewell, detective. Farewell, Talia. It is said that one finds one's immortality in one's offspring. Alas, I know that to be a lie.
