Favorite Villain Quotes/Monologues

Jack Ross

"I don't believe in good or evil."
Oh /r/AskReddit, you are just a giant copypasta with nothing all that original. Regardless I enjoy hearing responses for this question and thought I'd post it here. What are some of your favorite quotes and or monologues spouted by villains in movies, comics, or television?

My personal favorite.

"Now you know that evil will always triumph because good is dumb." -Dark Helmet
 

Evan Kenner

The Wrong Side of Heaven
"Savior, conqueror, hero, villian. You are all of these things, Revan... and yet you are nothing. In the end, you belong to neither the light nor the darkness. You will forever stand alone."

"Still... still spouting the wisdom the Jedi, I see. Maybe there is more truth in their code than I ever believed. I... I cannot help but wonder, Revan. What would have happened had our positions been reversed? What if fate had decreed I would be captured by the Jedi? Could I have returned to the Light, as you did? If you had not led me down the Dark Path in the first place, what destiny would I have found?"

"I wanted to be Master of the Sith and ruler of the galaxy. But that destiny was not mine, Revan. It might have been yours, perhaps . . . but never mine. And in the end, as the darkness takes me...

I am nothing..."



-Darth Malak
 
Edited for ease:

"Like most things, winning is a matter of perspective. You're a bard, right? How many stories have you heard in which a single hero vanquishes a wicked empire? What is the one thing they all have in common? The one thing they all have in common is this: the wicked empire exists. It has existed for some time, and it will continue to exist if no heroes intervene. Don't you see? The rules of drama to which you subscribe tell us that such tyrannies can exist- indeed MUST exist- and persist long enough that no one realistically thinks they can be defeated. Else, where's the drama in a hero opposing them? And if such kingdoms are necessary, why shouldn't I rule one?"

"If someone conquers an empire and rules it with an iron fist for thirty long years, and then some paladin breaks into his throne room and kills him, what do you think he's going to remember as he lays dying? That good triumphed over evil? No! That he got to live like a god for three decades! Sure, the last ten minutes sucked, but you can't have everything."

"Somewhere between "villain of the week" and "good triumphs over evil," there's a sweet spot for guys like me who get to rule the roost for years. As long as I go into this accepting the price I may eventually pay, then I win- no matter what actually happens."

"'This... stuff'? Oh. Okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select... I don't know... that lumpy blue sweater, for instance because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise. It's not lapis. It's actually cerulean. And you're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent... wasn't it who showed cerulean military jackets? I think we need a jacket here. And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. And then it, uh, filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room from a pile of stuff."
