When you look in her eyes... and she's looking back in yours... everything feels... not quite normal. Because you feel stronger and weaker at the same time. You feel excited and at the same time terrified. The truth is, you don't know what you feel... except you know what kind of man you want to be. It's as if you've reached the unreachable...

— Spider-Man! This is why only fools are heroes. Because you never know... when some lunatic will come along with a sadistic choice: Let die the woman you love or suffer the little children. — Spider-Man! Make your choice, Spider-Man and see how a hero is rewarded.
— Don't do it, Goblin!

I could squash you like a bug right now. But I'm offering you a choice. Join me. Imagine what we could accomplish together. What we could create. Or we could destroy.

What is he, shy? If we can get a picture of Julia Roberts in a thong, we can surely get a picture with this weirdo. Put an ad on the front page. Cash money for a picture of Spider-Man. He doesn't wanna be famous? I'll make him infamous!
