"Take it from someone who was beaten to death with a crowbar...Some crimes require a permanent solution."

― Jason Todd/Red Hood to Bruce Wayne/Batman (DC Comics)

"Beating heart...breathing lungs.. positive hit point total...I'M BACK IN THE GAME!"

― Roy Greenhilt (The Order of the Stick)

"Your name was Cyrus Gold: An evil man who performed many evil deeds, until the day you aroused an evil as great as your own. They ended your life, cursed you with a powerful grigri and dumped your remains in a swamp… redolent with mystical properties of its own. These magics did not sit well together. And so it was that decades later… the swamp gave birth to a walking dead man, soulless and empty. Always seeking… never knowing why."

― Dr. Fate to Solomon Grundy (Justice League)

"She's alive! Horace!? How did you do that? Only Caduceo can bring people back to life."

― Oliver to Horace (Mighty Med)
