"Loosen up Corrigan, this is what happens in the bedroom now. No old fashioned fumbling and kissing. A lesbian rapes you while you dream about your mother. It's edgy."
David Mitchell as Mark Corrigan on Peep Show.
Biography:
Joker: Ask me how I can govern this state, Silver.
Silver St. Cloud: All . . . all right. How--
Joker: FEAR! Fear is what moves people. Politics is built on it . . .! And I am fear! "Vote for me or I'll kill you" is not just great marketing -- it's the God's honest truth, and everyone knows it. My face guarantees it. Look at that buffoon, the Scarecrow. He's not crazy, he's just paranoid, so his attempts at fear come from pharmaceuticals. Most times he's just a crank in a really bad suit.
You know what it's like to walk into a room and have men catch their breaths. Well, I get that from everyone. Darkness . . . solitude . . . stealth . . . makes your heart speed up . . . makes you sweat. It's like sex, and I'm its master. It's better than sex because I'm always in the mood. I LOVE murder! I love the look in their eyes -- looking only at me. In those moments, I am what I was meant to be -- THE COSMIC JOKE! THE ONE NO ONE UNDERSTANDS!
BUT--! to be the Joker, I must beat the Batman. That's where it becomes really fun! I am a force of nature -- a force of the mind! And I must have a counter-force-- only one man can stand against me-- make me work--
Silver St. Cloud: But you-- You try to kill him.
Joker: Of course I try to kill him! Because he's my perfect foe! If I ever killed him, he'd be my im-perfect foe! And then-- Who'd give a damn? It's only through my failure that I know I'm soooo PERFECT!
