TV show quotes
Ever since that day on the bridge, you've always seen yourself as my savior; the one thing that would pull me off the dark path I'd started. See, that's why you cling to the idea that there's still some good in me. You don't want to face the fact that you might have failed.
Or maybe I just can't believe that someone would have so little willpower.
It's a little hard to compete with the iron willpower it takes to kill one of your best friends.
You have your father's eyes... hello, Kal-El.
Where's Lex?
Lex is dead.
Why are you here?
For the same reason as anyone who'd been imprisoned like a beast. Revenge. Your father banished me to an eternal hell, trying to save a doomed race. But, in the end, the only survivor of his pathetic crusade was his son.
Then this is between us. These people have done nothing to harm you.
No. But you feel no pain greater than to see others in agony.
I won't let you destroy this planet like you did Krypton.
You don't have a choice. Unless you join me.
I'll never join you.
I hope that's a decision you'll be able to live with... forever.
Every world needs its heroes, Clark. They inspire us to be better than we are. And they protect us from the darkness that's just around the corner.
I've lost my husband and now my son because of your games!
We have both lost much, Martha Kent. But you must put aside your anguish if you wish to save your world.
Zod is a soldier. He will kill you.
If there was a way for you to save everyone you loved, wouldn't you risk dying?
You truly are your father's son.
So easily beaten. Disappointing.
I won't let you destroy Earth, like you did Krypton.
Jor-El couldn't stop me, and neither will his son.
Then I'll die trying.
But you won't be the only one. These humans you care so much about... swear your allegiance to me, and I'll allow the ones you love the most to live...Kneel before Zod.
Look, I can never make up for what happened. All I can do is move forward and try to rebuild everything I've damaged.
That might not be easy.
Well, nothing worth it ever is.
Well I forgot what a concerned parent you are. That's why you're having me followed, isn't it? To make sure I don't destroy the rest of the world?
If I were having you followed, son, you would never know it. I can guarantee you that.
When you escaped from that Kryptonian Land of the Lost, I bet you didn't think that you'd be rewarded by having to save Lex Luthor while battling a raging head cold, huh?
Not exactly the goodbye gift I was expecting, no.
I guess heroes don’t get sick days.
Clark, with a sneeze like yours, that says a lot about your lung capacity. Now just take a really deep breath and blow it out as hard as you can.
That's a steel door, it's not a birthday cake.
I don't see anything else working. Come on, let's see what you got. Huff, puff, and blow this door down. [Clark blows] Good thing you didn't have garlic today.
You just take care of that cold. We've enough natural disasters around here without having to worry about Hurricane Clark looming off the coast.
Miracles really do happen: man walked on the moon, call waiting was created, and Lois Lane got her first by-line on the front page of the Inquisitor.
Hey, that's great, Lo. I don't know how I feel about the alien angle, but...
I wasn't too crazy about the E.T. spin, either, but my editor insisted it'd help sell papers, so...
Well, let's hear it for journalistic integrity.
Look, I swear, you guys, when I was writing that article, I don't know... I don't think I've ever been happier in my life. The thrill of discovery, the clacking of keys, the scent of fresh ink. Yeah, I think I've finally found my calling.
Happiness is just a feeling of euphoria. It's your brain chemistry going into overdrive. That's why so many relationships fail when the honeymoon ends and reality sets in.
Wow, have you always been such a romantic?
Hey, how goes life living with Lois?
Closer to coffee, further from sanity, but, you know, until Metropolis University reopens, I guess... what is it they say about a gift horse?
"Stay away from the mouth", which is difficult because Lois uses hers so much.
You've always had an eye for beauty. It's a Latin name, formositas falsus. "Beauty that belies a dark nature".
So, even your plants have hidden agendas.
Well, I guess it all comes down to survival of the fittest. Doesn't it?
A strange vine has cropped up over the ridge at Lone Pine. It's attacking people.
