Much like Ebenezer Scrooge, I realized that what I want more than anything is to live happily ever after. And do you know what the secret to living happily ever after is? Power. Money and power. See, once you have those two things, you can secure everything else... and keep it that way.

Lex

Oh, not to worry, Griff. We Luthors are made of pretty tough and definitely expensive material.

Lex

Clark, you've been hypnotized. How else could you throw me across the room like that?
