Quotes
-
Ra's al Ghul : [using Superman to rejuvenate himself] The power. I've never felt anything like it. More. I must have more!
Talia al Ghul : Father, your body.
Ra's al Ghul : Don't stop. I want every ounce, every fiber of his strength.
[a batarang is thrown into the controls]
Ra's al Ghul : What?
Talia al Ghul : [Batman swings in and takes the staff] Beloved.
-
Ra's al Ghul : You're foolish to have come here, detective. Give me the staff.
Batman : I think you've had your workout for today.
-
Ra's al Ghul : Mesa De Oro. A lost city defended with honor for centuries.
Talia al Ghul : Father led the conquistadors who finally vanquished it. The spoils of that victory formed the foundation of his vast fortune.
Ra's al Ghul : Time is short.
Talia al Ghul : Secure him.
[the brace around Superman's neck is secured; he uses his heat vision to break a stalactite, which forces Talia to drop the staff]
Ra's al Ghul : No! Stop him!
-
Ra's al Ghul : I'm sorry we must meet under such circumstances.
Superman : You're not exactly what I pictured.
Ra's al Ghul : I'm not the man I was.
Talia al Ghul : [putting an oxygen mask over his mouth as he coughs] Father, you should rest.
Ra's al Ghul : Old age, Superman. It truly is a shipwreck. One that I have survived more times than I can remember. For centuries, I've kept myself alive by immersing my body in Lazarus Pits. Their wonderous powers rejuvenated me. But each time, the effects were more and more short-lived. Now they can no longer sustain me.
Talia al Ghul : [putting the oxygen mask on again] He's dying.
Superman : What do you want from me?
Ra's al Ghul : Your strength.
-
Talia al Ghul : Father, stop. You'll kill him.
Ra's al Ghul : Stay back. I must have it. Farewell, detective.
Superman : Ra's, you're forgetting something.
Ra's al Ghul : [as he drops Batman and advances on Superman, Superman breaks the staff] No!
Superman : [the room begins to collapse] The room won't hold up much longer. Punish me or save your daughter. Your choice.
