Quotes 

• Wilson Fisk : I've done things that I'm not proud of, Vanessa. I've hurt people and I'm going to hurt more. It's impossible to avoid for what I'm trying to do. But I take no pleasure in it, in cruelty. But this city isn't a caterpillar. It doesn't spin a cocoon and wake up a butterfly. A city crumbles and fades. It needs to die before it can be reborn.

• Leland Owlsley : Where are the Smiley Twins? Sleeping off another kidnapping?

  Wilson Fisk : The Ranskahovs are no longer a part of this organization.

  Leland Owlsley : Since when?

  Wilson Fisk : Since I removed Anatoly's head with my car door.

• Vanessa Marianna : So why does a man like you feel alone?

  Wilson Fisk : Nature of my business, I suppose.

  Vanessa Marianna : And what kind of business is that?

  Wilson Fisk : Rebuilding this city. I want to carve something beautiful out of its ugliness, set free its potential.

  Vanessa Marianna : You sound like an artist.

  Wilson Fisk : I'm just a man with a dream.

  Vanessa Marianna : What do you think an artist is?

• Wilson Fisk : What I said about what I want for this city is the truth. But money and influence is not enough to usher change on such a scale. Sometimes it requires force.

  Vanessa Marianna : I know you're a dangerous man. That's why I brought a gun to a dinner date.

  Wilson Fisk : Would you like to leave?

  Vanessa Marianna : No. I'd like a reason to stay.

• Wilson Fisk : May I ask you something now?

  Vanessa Marianna : I'd say you've earned it.

  Wilson Fisk : What kind of gun is that you have in your purse?

  Vanessa Marianna : It's a .22.

  Wilson Fisk : Did you think you would need that tonight?

  Vanessa Marianna : We've been sitting here talking for hours and you're going to insult me like I have no idea what you really do?

• Wilson Fisk : A "rising tide " raises all boats, Leland.
