Quotes:

Batman: [to John Jones] And one other thing, I'm not sure what you are or where you come from. But my instincts tell me you're to be trusted. Make no mistake, I have a $70,000 sliver of a radioactive meteor to stop the one from Metropolis. All I need for you is a penny for a book of matches.

King Faraday: All of you remember today, there are no Democrats, no Replicans, no hawks, no doves. Just the naked simplicity of an absolute: Mankind's survival. Good luck to us all.

Superman: I see I have your attention. We face a threat big enough to wipe us off the Earth. And still we bicker about a mask or a uniform. My best friend is lying upstairs right now. She would have given her life for this country and I could hardly look her in the eye. America was founded on the notion that a person should be free to follow his or her own destiny. But we can't do that if we're living in fear of our own government. We need to reclaim this country for free men and women everywhere.::The Flash: What about your government friends?::King Faraday: That's a fair question. Superman's right! The persecution and paranoia have to stop. From here on, we work together as free Americans.::[Superman and Faraday shake hands]::Superman: I'm gonna fly now and recon this thing. When I get back, we'll work out a strategy. ARE YOU WITH ME?::[the crowd cheers]

Lois Lane: America's champion, Superman, went down in defeat several hours ago. An exhaustive search has found no sign of him. Here at the Cape, the greatest minds in the free world, are now working on a plan to stop this monster before it reaches the coast. We cannot panic. We cannot let our sense of loss...::[stops the broadcast and starts crying]

Wonder Woman: All of you, fight on! To the last breath FIGHT ON!

The Centre: You won't be able to do it. It is the CENTRE that holds, not you!::Green Lantern: I can. I can!::The Centre: You do not have the will!::Green Lantern: No? Watch!

The Flash: Sorry to interrupt. There's something I have to get off my chest. I've always used my power to help people. But now the government's on my tail, hunting me. You just saw what happened to John Wilson. America needs people like him. But where are they going to come from if the government keeps acting this way? As for me, I'm quitting, giving it up. Breaks my heart, but there are people I love. I don't want anything to happen to them. So good night, everybody. And good luck!

J'onn J'onzz: I though I could make a life for myself here among you humans. I didn't think I had a choice. But there is one now. There's too much hatred here, too much ignorance, too much mindless conformity. I'm leaving.::Batman: Have a nice trip. Some of us don't have that luxury.

Superman: This is what the government's afraid of, Diana, us acting like vigilantes.::Wonder Woman: I have to do what I think is right.::Superman: That's what the others said at first, remember? And now Batman's a fugitive, the Justice Society's retired, and Hourman's dead. No matter how much good we do, deep down, people are always going to be scared of us. Isn't that why you and I signed those loyalty oaths?::Wonder Woman: Take a look around, Kal. Oaths don't mean much around here. All I see is suffering and madness.::Superman: But...::Wonder Woman: There's the door, spaceman.

King Faraday: Come on, level with me.::J'onn J'onzz: Very well. I have looked into your mind, and by extension, your heart. You honestly believe that there will be a better day when all this won't be necessary. To find that in you, Mr. Faraday, has filled my heart with hope... And I have no place else to go.
