Robin: "Holy metronome! What a fate - punched into player piano  
           rolls!"
Batman: "True, Robin. Scarcely an end I'd rather anticipate. Life -            a cupful of surprises to the last drop!"
 
Robin: "Boy! That was our closest call ever! I have to admit that I
           was pretty scared." 
Batman: "I wasn't scared in the least."
Robin: "Not at all?"
Batman: "Haven't you noticed how we always escape the vicious
           ensnarements of our enemies?" 
Robin: "Yeah, because we're smarter than they are!"
Batman: "I like to think it's because our hearts are pure."
