Jordie Bellaire knows how to tell a story with color.

You take the thing that is the worst thing that could have happened to you, the worst challenge in your life, and you turn it into fuel. You don't give up. And that's what Gotham is about.

A post-9/11, modern take being Batman training people to be the heroes they know they can be on their own.

Sometimes, all it takes is a few words to change your life.

I had to fight for wingdings. Batman needs to curse sometimes!

- If I tell you, will you let met go? - You bet, partner. [...] - You promised! - Nope. I said "you bet." You did ... and you lost.

Does it matter how long they were together that night? To lovers, an hour can last a century. But even for lovers, every hour ends.

Humans see what they want to see.

I never like things that don't look nice. It's really that simple.

I've written a lot of autobiography, which also involved listening.

I have very human responses to things, so I had to learn to just be still.

Leaders show respect for people by giving them time.

There's nothing wrong with a little fear. Being fearful can save your life-it's saved mine on more than one occasion-but too much fear can stop you from living.

Sometimes, the best answer is a more interesting question.

Nobody should pin their hopes on a miracle.
