Spider-Man Power Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Spider-Man.

Quote #1

HARRY: Leave him alone.

FLASH'S CRONY (mocking): Or what?

[…]

FLASH: What's Daddy gonna do? Sue me?

Say what you will about Norman Osborn, but the dude does wield a lot of power thanks to his massive bank account. Harry, on the other hand, does not. Here, Flash is making fun of the fact that Harry doesn't fight his own battles—figuratively speaking, that is.

Quote #2

STROMM: We need to take the whole line back to formula.

NORMAN (hissing at Stromm): Back to formula?

SLOCUM: Dr. Osborn, I'm gonna be frank with you. I never supported your program. We have my predecessor to thank for that.

FARGAS: Norman, the general gave the go-ahead to Quest Aerospace to build a prototype of their exoskeleton design. They test in two weeks.

SLOCUM: And if your so-called performance enhancers have not had a successful human trial by that date, I'm gonna pull your funding. I'm going to give it to them.

Norman may be a rich and powerful scientist-businessman (you know the type), but he's not as powerful as the U.S. military. Gen. Slocum uses his powerful position to put the squeeze on Norman…and we know how well that turns out for all parties involved.

Quote #3

UNCLE BEN: Remember, with great power comes great responsibility.

Here it is. The line from Spider-Man. The one you've heard quoted by everyone from your mom to your algebra teacher. The reason why it's quoted so often is because it's true. Just look at Peter and Norman, two guys who both have huge amounts of power. One uses it responsibly, and he saves dozens of lives. The other doesn't, and he ends up impaled by his own flying boogie board.
