The Watchmen
Dr. Manhattan/Jon Osterman: Blake, she was pregnant. You gunned her down.
Edward Blake/Comedian: Yeah, that's right. Pregnant woman. Gunned her down. Bang. And y'know what? You watched me. You could've changed the gun into steam or the bullets into mercury or the bottle into snowflakes! You could've teleported either of us to goddamn Australia, but you didn't lift a finger. You really don't give a damn about human beings, do you.
Adrian Veidt/Ozymandias: Speaking of The Comedian, you must be joking right?
Edward Blake/Comedian: Watchmen, that's the real joke.
Dan Dreiberg/Nite Owl: What about the American Dream?
Edward Blake/Comedian: What about it? It came true! You are looking at it. ***Dammit (No Comedian)
Rorschach/Walter Kovacs: I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up.' Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor... I am Pagliacci.' Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.
Rorschach/Walter Kovacs: Men get arrested. Dogs get put down.
Adrian Veidt/Ozymandias:“Dan, I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago.”
Dr. Manhattan/Jon Osterman: I have walked across the surface of the Sun. I have witnessed events so tiny and so fast they can hardly be said to have occurred at all. But you, Adrian, you're just a man. The world's smartest man poses no more threat to me than does its smartest termite.
Adrian Veidt/Ozymandias: Dan? Grow up.
