Need some good DD quotes.

Actually, DD's sometime ally Stone has made some truly memorable remarks. The most noteworthy: "Confronting the enemy head-on assures a purity of purpose. To wait is the true risk, the risk of the plight worsening." Meaningful, indeed.

DD's most humorous remark, incidentally, was uttered in DD Vol. #1 #110. On page 31, a mutant villan vowed that he was "going to overthrow the US government." DDs reply: "Uh-uh. You're going to the peanut farm where you belong!"

"I want you to come at me with everything you have. So when I totally and whole-heartedly put you down... I want there to be no doubt in your mind that it was complete and total."

I have other quotes, but because they would be retranslated in english from my language, I fear they would lose effectiveness.

"Turk, I could be deaf, dumb, and blind...I
could have my legs in traction and both arms tied behind my back...and
you'd still be too slow to tag me. Sweet dreams."

"Tried my best...to stop Hulk. Best wasn't...good enough. If I quit now, nobody would blame me...nobody would even know...Nobody, except me. I'd always know that I'd backed down...that I ran..."

I'm searching for the original version of the exchange of words between Matt and Yuriko Oyama at the end of the "Bullseye gets adamantium" arc. Anyone can help?

This one still moves me to tears, to this day. Seriously.

The fever grows in him. No earthly force can stop it. He has lost too much blood. His body cannot fight. He will die.

But he has so very much to do, my Lord. His soul is troubled. But it is a good man's soul, my Lord. He needs only to be shown your way. Then he will rise as your own and bring light to this poisoned city. He will be as a spear of lightning in your hand, my Lord.

If I am to be punished for past sins, so be it. If I am to be cast into Hell, so be it.

But spare him. So many need him. Hear my plea.

I knew you would dodge it. I knew it. That's why I never outted you myself. I knew the threat was alway stronger than the reality of it. I knew you'd spin around it somehow... deny it by sheer force of will.
I knew it. But I wonder... I wonder what the dynamic of our relationship will be now that you're a public figure. I wonder how we'll work with all this change.

No, Wilson. No. This is it. Right here. It's the end of the road for us. You're done.

You should know me well enough by now to know... it's done when I say it's done.

No, it's done. I'm sick of outwitting you. No more games. No more chessboard of life. Now I think I'm just going to beat the $%#@ out of you!!

The greatest DD quote comes from Born Again. I don't have this in front of me, but comes from the Kingpin when he is working out at the gym. I believe he is thinking to himself. "There is no body (when the cab is pulled from the water). What happens to a man who has lost everything, all hope. He becomes a man without fear." It goes something along those lines I think. Miller wrote some brilliant moments in there.

I propose to meld the current "quotes" topic with this one.

The Message Board is currently in read-only mode, as the software is now out of date. Several features and pages have been removed. If/When I get time I intend to re-launch the board with updated software.
