Superman quotes from Superman: The Animated Series

Flash

Unusual weather we're having.

Superman

You had to say it.

Superman

That's enough, Miss Willis.

Leslie Willis

Not "Miss Willis" anymore! Meet her replacement: [transforms her hospital gown into an electricity-themed suit] Livewire! Neat, huh? I ionized the air around me. Pretty form-fitting, don't you think?

Lois Lane

I wasn't sure you'd really come. [the shadow figure comes out revealing to be not Superman, but Bizarro]

Bizarro

Me remember. [Lois is shocked at the sight of Bizarro] Me need Lois help. Don't be afraid, me never hurt you. [Superman arrives]

Superman

I heard about our date, Lois. Problem is you've made it with the wrong guy.

Bizarro

Imposter! Stay back, Lois! Me protect you! [pushes Superman to the Daily Planet statue causing it to break off the stand and fall off]

Lois Lane

Do you think he survived?

Superman

I don't know. I've never been in a half kiloton blast. I hope he did. He turned out to have a good heart.

Lois Lane

Well, naturally. He came from good stock.

Lois Lane

Someday though it'd be nice to see you when I wasn't about to be killed.

Superman

Someday...

Superman

I can't even say your name forward. How am I supposed to say it backward?

Mr. Mxyzptlk

No, dope! You don't have to say it backwards! You've got to get me to say it!

Superman

Say what?

Mr. Mxyzptlk

KLTPZYXM! Gosh, you're thick! Now, for the last time- [realizes his mistake] Ah, nuts. [disappears]

Livewire

Well, what do you know? The boy scout brought protection.

Parasite

That ain't fair!

Superman

I didn't realize there were rules.

Livewire

Tear it off!

Luminus

Getting weaker, I see. You must be at—what? Half strength by now?

Superman

Wanna try me?

Superman

And how are holograms suppose to kill me?

Luminus

Well, we might only be made of light, but so are lasers.

Luminus

Get those lights out of my eyes!

Superman

[turning him over] You heard him. Put him somewhere nice and dark.

Lois Lane

So, I am Lois Lane, but I'm not the Lois Lane that you knew...

Ever since you- she died I've wondered if there were other dimensions out there. Other versions of me... and you.

Lois Lane

Hold it! I may be a lot like your Lois, but you're nothing like the Superman I know! He's no tyrant.

I had to take control, there was no other way. For too long I fooled myself into thinking I was just doing a simple clean-up job. And if I did enough good, people would follow my example. I didn't realize it was a war. And suddenly you were a casualty of that war. And I knew I had to stop it by whatever means possible.

You never knew what I felt about you. I never knew, till you were gone.

Lois Lane

[slaps him] You could've said something. We could've talked about it and figured it out! Now look at you... married to Luthor...

I never thought I'd lose you... twice.

Lois Lane

Will it change anything?

For me, but not for Metropolis. Not this time.

Superman

So that was me?

Lois Lane

Yes. And... no. It-it's complicated. I could explain it over dinner.

Superman

Dinner? Are we getting a little personal?

Lois Lane

Better now than never...

Superman

Stop, there's an innocent man!

Kalibak

How naïve you are. On Apokolips, we are taught, even as children, that no one is innocent.
