Ryan: We are nothing alike.
Roman: We both wear masks. We avenge the wrongs perpetrated against us. I must say I feel that given the right push, together, we could give this city its soul back.
Ryan: Yeah, and all I have to do is give up mine.

Tavaroff: I just can't shake the suspicion that I'm the same cog in a different machine. First, Jacob Kane's. Now, yours. What's the difference? What's in this for me?

Mary

Roman: Tough call. It's a good zit cream.

Batwoman Season 2 Quotes

Ryan: You make it sound like these are all my choices.
Stevens: They are your choices, Ryan. You have the power to turn this around.
