Clark Kent quotes from Smallville

Trust me. This kid is more David Blaine than he is Wall of Weird.

Clark Kent

All right, well, that still doesn't explain how he cured Tyson.

Yeah, I haven't figured that one out yet. But I'd be willing to bet that he faked that one too somehow.

Clark Kent

No, I was there. It was real.

Okay, well, I'm not discounting the possibility that he may have some magic healing power. But if he does, it's probably byproduct of meteorite poisoning. He is no more extraterrestrial than you are.

Clark Kent, convict.

Yeah, I know, when do you get fit for that orange jump suit? Or is it one size fits all?

Clark Kent

Forty hours of community service is not funny... it's an orange vest.

Oh, no! It's gonna clash with the plaid!

Welcome to Smallville, where you stop the crime, you do the time.

Sheriff Nancy Adams

Very pithy. Maybe I should use that as my campaign slogan?

You did throw him into that car, Clark.

Clark Kent

Maybe this is where it all starts. Remember what it said in the spaceship? "They're a flawed race. Rule them with strength".

Son, I got into a lot of fights when I was your age too, believe me. But, Clark, these are not alien feelings. What you have to remember under these circumstances is that there are consequences.

Martha Kent

Your father's right. You don't make decisions in a split second that you have to live with for the rest of your life.

Clark, it's true. We are a flawed race, sure. But we're a flawed race that raised you. You're a lot more human than you think.

Lex has a way of bringing out a side of me that's both scary and liberating at the same time.

Clark Kent

Well, you know the first rule of self defense is to avoid conflict.

Relax, Clark, I'm not about to go prowling the night fighting crime. I'll leave that to the expert.

Clark Kent

Well, you can trust me, there's no future in fighting crime unless you enjoy being sued.

Clark Kent

My article about the debate team. Oh, Chloe, I'm really sorry. I'll give it to you first thing tomorrow morning.

Well, unfortunately Clark, I needed it tonight. To fill in the hole, I had to blow up the lunch menu to a 60-point type. I'm sure the student body is going to find that fascinating.

Clark Kent

What are you doing out of jail?

EMEric Marsh

Seems I've got friends in higher places that I didn't even know about. And suddenly, you're not so anonymous.

Clark Kent

I'll testify, if that's what it takes to put you away.

EMEric Marsh

Oh no, I'd think about that Kent. I mean, I know you're unbreakable, but people that you care about aren't. I'd sure hate to think something happened to those wholesome parents of yours.

Clark Kent

Dad, look around. Look at what they did to this place. You said yourself I can't protect you. You have to think of Mom. You have to think about the baby.

I am thinking about Mom. I am thinking about the baby. I'm also thinking about you.

Clark Kent

Dad, please! Please.

All right, I'll take your mother to a doctor in Metropolis, and maybe stay with your grandfather for a couple days. Son, I'd feel a whole hell of a lot better if you'd agree to come with us.

Clark Kent

I can't.

Clark, I'm not going to stand here and ask you to do nothing because you and I both know that I would not do nothing. But I want you to remember something son. They have your strength, but they don't have any of your other abilities. You make sure you give yourself a fighting chance.

Clark Kent

If this is the mysterious Lana, I like it. What is this all about?

Us, kind of. I just wanted to thank you for yesterday. There were a few minutes there when I really thought I might be losing it. But, you never doubted me. Not for a second. You always believe in me. Thanks a lot.

Clark Kent

Lana, what is this all about?

It's just that sometimes I feel like you've created this perfect picture of who I am.

Clark Kent

That's what I see.

This might sound silly... but I have this fear that-- that one day you'll finally get a good look at me and... I'm going to disappoint you. That you'll see that I'm not as strong or as good as you think I am. And I'm afraid that it'll change the way you feel about me.

Clark Kent

Nothing could ever do that.

Clark, couldn't the bone yard visit have waited till after the rain stopped?

Clark Kent

It's the only way to disprove the zombie theory.

Yeah. Well, if this Emily girl really is a ghost I really don't think she'd appreciate you scoping out her coffin.

Okay. I know it's not your birthday for another seven minutes, but I wanted to surprise you.

Clark Kent

You did.

I get the feeling it's not in a good way.

Clark Kent

It's just it's not really my birthday. It's just some date that my parents picked off the calendar for the adoption papers.

Maybe some of us want to celebrate the day you came into our lives.

Clark Kent

I never thought of it that way.

Clark Kent

I'm going to rule the world? He's obviously nuts.

Lex Luthor

Of course he is. Unfortunately my father was there. He heard the whole thing.

Clark Kent

But he didn't believe him, did he?

Lex Luthor

He quoted one of his favorite Elizabethan poets. "'Twixt truth and madness lies but a sliver of a stream". He's not just gonna let this drop. I thought I'd warn you.

I am Jor-El, your father.

Clark Kent

I thought you died!

I am his memory, his will. I am to fulfill his promise and guide you all the days of your life. You are the last son of Krypton. When you traveled through the cosmos, you carried the hopes and dreams of your people. They now live through you, Kal-El. It is time.

Clark Kent

Time for what?

Time to accept your destiny.

Clark Kent

I don't know what you have in mind for me, but I--

By the setting of the sun Sol, you will return to me. Your destiny will be fulfilled. Your thoughts are not a mystery to me, Kal-El. These people have served their purpose. It is time to leave them.

Clark Kent

Please! Everything and everyone I love is here! In Smallville!

You must let go of your past. I will guide you to your future.

Clark Kent

No, I don't want your guidance! I want to create my own future!

You have no choice, Kal-El.
