Morgan Edge quotes from Smallville

You've made quite a reputation for yourself. I set up this test so I could see with my own eyes if you were man or myth. And clearly, you're both.

Well, I'm glad I could clear it up for you... Mr. Edge.

I'd like to talk about a job opportunity.

Thanks. But I'm really not looking for work right now. I like to fly solo.

No matter how many bullets bounce off you, Kal, you're still a kid, and I'm the biggest crime boss in Metropolis.

Well, I would think you could afford better help.

That's why we're talking. I got this one job. It'll make you Midas rich. So when you are tired of playing the little league, you know where to find me.

I need you to break into a secure building. The office on the 60th floor has a very valuable package. It's in a titanium-reinforced steel safe. Not a job for mere mortals.

Sounds like easy money.

I haven't told you where you're going yet.

[reads a card] LuthorCorp Plaza. You want me to break into Lionel Luthor's office?

Will that be a problem?

No. It'll be my pleasure.

If we'd done it my way, you'd be dead by now.

Lex Luthor

What are you talking about?

You really believe you could have escaped if I wanted to kill you? It was your father's idea to make you look crazy instead.

Lex Luthor

You're lying!

It's true, Lex. Lionel's gone soft in his old age. He was willing to lose his parents, but he said he couldn't bear to lose another child.
