Harvey：You have killed people before.
Jim: That was war.
Harvey: This is war. We’re at war with scumbags like him. Sometime in war you got to do a bad thing to do good, right? So do you do this bad thing or do you die and maybe your girl dies? I might be lackadaisical, hmm? But that’s not a tough call.

Bruce: “A new Arkam Asylum will serve the mentally ill of Gotham in the ways the present asylum never can. Those poor, sick souls deserve our help” My mother wrote that she and my father fought for years to get a new asylum built. They thought that if they can help the city’s least fortunate（贫苦百姓）, it would there hope for everyone. I just don’t want my parent’s dream to die with them.
Jim: … This isn’t just about the asylum. If there is a fight between Falcone and Maroni, This could be the spark that ignites a citywide gang war. Innocents will die. Whatever little faith people have that the police can protect them, it will be crushed.
