Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  Alfred Pennyworth : [to Gordon]  Yet in the darkness there will be light. That's what you promised Master Bruce all those years ago in the alley. You saved him. Gave him hope.

  [a shadowy figure flies behind Gordon. Bullock notices it] 

  Harvey Bullock : Holy mother.

  [Gordon, Bullock and Alfred see the figure looking down at them] 

  Harvey Bullock : Who is he?

  James Gordon : A friend.

• Selina Kyle : So, this is Bruce's new Gotham. I like the old one.

  Alfred Pennyworth : Selina? How wonderful to see you again. It's been far, far too long.

  Selina Kyle : Where is he?

  Alfred Pennyworth : Well, I-I'm afraid travels abroad haven't increased Master Bruce's respect for punctuality, Miss Kyle.

  Selina Kyle : I came here to tell him to stop spying on me.

  Alfred Pennyworth : I don't understand.

  Selina Kyle : I was out the other night and I felt someone watching me. I know it was Bruce.

  Alfred Pennyworth : Oh, I see, right, well, that makes perfect sense. So you come here tonight dressed to the nines to tell him that you want nothing more to do with him. Is that the kind of gist of it?

  Selina Kyle : He left, Alfred. Everything we went through, and one day he's just gone. He doesn't get to come back after ten years and act like nothing's happened.

  Alfred Pennyworth : On this we, absolutely agree. I do, however, feel it might be something that you want to tell him yourself.

  Selina Kyle : He needs to stay away.

• Alfred Pennyworth : [to Bruce and Harvey]  Good evening, gentlemen. Master Bruce sends his profound apologies. He's otherwise engaged.

  James Gordon : He's been busy a lot since he came back.

  Alfred Pennyworth : Yes, indeed. And I hear that you're retiring.

  James Gordon : I may stick around a while yet.

• Lucius Fox : Alfred, when Bruce came to me the day he got back and told me what he was planning, I didn't hesitate. I believe in what he's doing, but he's going to need some help. Has he thought about telling Gordon?

  Alfred Pennyworth : Lucius, my old friend, whoever Bruce decides to take on his journey with him, it's his decision. Our role... is to serve.
