Alfred: When are you planning to be married? Tristan: Morning. Alfred: Damn you, Tristan. You will marry her. Tristan: And make a honest woman out of her? Alfred: Yes! God damn you to hell. Tristan: Yes, I will marry her if she'll have me. Alfred: If...

Bruce Wayne: [as Alfred opens the curtains] Bats are nocturnal. Alfred Pennyworth: Bats may be, but even for billionaire playboys, three o'clock is pushing it. The price of leading a double life, I fear. Your theatrics made an impression. [shows the ...

Alfred: If you're seriously considering going back out there, you should hear the rumors surrounding Bane. Bruce Wayne: I'm all ears. Alfred: There is a prison in a more ancient part of the world, a pit where men are thrown to suffer and die. But som...
