Citáty Frank Miller
„For some reason, nobody seems to be talking about who we’re up against, and the sixth century barbarism that they actually represent.“
Interview on Talk of the Nation (NPR) as quoted in "NPR Interview with 300’s Frank Miller" The Atlasphere (10 March 2007) http://www.theatlasphere.com/metablog/612.php
Kontext: For some reason, nobody seems to be talking about who we’re up against, and the sixth century barbarism that they actually represent. These people saw people’s heads off. They enslave women, they genitally mutilate their daughters, they do not behave by any cultural norms that are sensible to us. I’m speaking into a microphone that never could have been a product of their culture, and I’m living in a city where three thousand of my neighbors were killed by thieves of airplanes they never could have built.
„Batman is a hero who wishes he didn't have to exist.“
— Frank Miller, kniha Batman: Year One
About Batman's motives, as quoted by David Mazzuccheli in his Afterword to Batman: Year One.
Kontext: He's clearly a man with a mission, but it's not one of vengeance. Bruce is not after personal revenge... He's much bigger than that; he's much more noble than that. He wants the world to be a better place, where a young Bruce Wayne would not be a victim... In a way, he's out to make himself unnecessary. Batman is a hero who wishes he didn't have to exist.
„My Sin City heroes are knights in dirty, blood-caked armor. They bring justice to a world that gives them no medals, no praise, no reward.“
"Frank Miller: I Stole From The Best!" COMICDOM interview (22 January 2006), edited by Dimitris Sakaridis http://www.comicdom.gr/interviews.php?id=17&lang=en
Kontext: My Sin City heroes are knights in dirty, blood-caked armor. They bring justice to a world that gives them no medals, no praise, no reward. That world, that city, often kills them for their brave service.

„She doesn't quite chop his head off.
She makes a Pez dispenser out of him.“

„Ladies. Gentlemen. You have eaten well. You've eaten Gotham's wealth. Its spirit. Your feast is nearly over. From this moment on… none of you are safe.“

„This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle - broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would…… but I'm a man of thirty - of twenty again. The rain on my chest is a baptism - I'm born again…“
