Dick Grayson quotes from Batman

Dick

[reading in the library] Gosh, Bruce. That Genghis Khan was quite a guy.

Dick

Oh, heck! What's the use of learning French anyway?

Bruce

Dick, I'm surprised at you! Language is the key to world peace. If we all spoke each other's tongues, perhaps the scourge of war would be ended forever.

Dick

Gosh, Bruce, yes. I'll get these darn verbs if they kill me!

Dick Grayson

What's so important about Chopin?

Bruce Wayne

All music is important, Dick. It's the universal language. One of our best hopes for the eventual realization of the brotherhood of man.

Dick Grayson

Gosh Bruce, yes, you're right. I'll practice harder from now on.

Dick

Wow! The rings of Saturn! This is sure some fun, Bruce.

Bruce

Astronomy is more than mere fun, Dick.

Dick

It is?

Bruce

Yes, it helps give us a sense of proportion. Reminds us how little we are, really. People tend to forget that sometimes.

Dick

Gosh yes, that's right. I'll bet I see those rings a little differently this time!

Bruce

When we have more time, I'll acquaint you with the various processes of sculptoring. It's a fascinating art to which I have devoted many hours of study.

Dick

I sure would like to hear about it, Bruce.

I'll have nightmares all my life, Mr. Wayne. If it hadn't been for that power failure, where would Robin be? And where would Batman be?

Dick

Where would Dick Grayson be?

What?

Bruce

Forget about it, young people. Just be thankful that life is filled with unanswered questions, that's all. Goodbye, Suzie.

Goodbye.

Bruce

Most Americans don't realize what we owe to the ancient Incas. Very few appreciate they gave us the white potato and many varieties of Indian corn.

Dick

Now whenever I eat mashed potatoes, I for one will think of the Incas.

Dick

[working on a jigsaw puzzle] It's so much harder with the pieces upside down.

Bruce

Of course. Think of what excellent training it is for your visual memory.

Dick

Gosh yes, I guess that's true.

Dick

[after seeing Commissioner Gordon apparently shot to death on TV] Holy homicide! Tell me I'm having a nightmare!

Bruce

Steady, Dick. It happened all right.

Dick

Commissioner Gordon - killed!

Bruce

This is one time we DON'T wait for the Batphone!

Dick

Gosh Bruce, Greek is still Greek to me.

It's Greek to a lot of Greeks too. It's one of the world's oldest, most important, most beautiful languages.

Dick

It may be, Aunt Harriet, but can't we take a breather and work out in the gym for a while?

But the mind needs exercise too, Dick.

Dick

Well, my mind is getting muscle-bound.

Bruce

Ahhh, there is an old saying, Dick. A sound mind and a sound body. A worthy goal.

Dick

Gosh, Economics is sure a dull subject.

Bruce

Oh, you must be jesting, Dick. Economics dull? The glamour, the romance of commerce... Hmm. It's the very lifeblood of our country's society.

Dick

Bruce, let me ride Waynebow. I'm light enough.

Bruce

No, Dick, I couldn't allow my own ward to ride my own thoroughbred. People might think it was funny.

Bruce

Just because we're traveling, I don't think that Dick should neglect his studies, so we brought along one thousand key works of literature, his biological specimens, and also his own desk.

Dick

Yes, I expect to study hard.

To the Batpoles!

To the Batcave!

To the Batmobile!

Holy (subject), Batman!
