Gotham City. Clean shafts of concrete and snowy rooftops. The work of men who died generations ago. From here, it looks like an achievement. From here, you can't see the enemy.

More quotes by Frank Miller
A screenwriter is much like being a fire hydrant with a bunch of dogs lined up around it.
Frank Miller
I'm a comic book artist. So I think to myself, what do I like to draw? I like to draw hot chicks, fast cars and cool guys in trench coat. So that's what I write about.
Frank Miller
Alfred: Hmf. I suppose you'll take up flying next, like that fellow in Metropolis.
Frank Miller
Hollywood is a town it's not a medium. And cinema is a medium you can practice anywhere.
Frank Miller
A man without hope is a man without fear.
Frank Miller
I was always into noir. When I lived in Vermont I was drawing stuff that looked like an amateur doing 'Sin City'. When I first got to New York I was swiftly informed that they only did guys in tights.
Frank Miller
The noir hero is a knight in blood caked armor. He's dirty and he does his best to deny the fact that he's a hero the whole time.
Frank Miller
I always knew it would come down to you and the big blue school boy. Planet's too big for the BOTH of you. When it all comes down, I want a piece of him. A small piece, will do? For OLD TIMES, sake, you know..it still hurts when its cold.
Frank Miller
Comics are so full of amazing work. And I can’t look at a drawing of a woman without thinking of, for instance, Wallace Wood and his amazing way of capturing beauty.
Frank Miller
I'm not going to complain about the fact that people are paying attention to my work. I suppose that wouldn't be fair.
Frank Miller
I don't do a comic book thinking there is a movie. I just want it to be as good a comic book as it can be.
Frank Miller
I take away his weapon. Both of them.
Frank Miller
Mighty cultures never - are almost never conquered. They crumble from within. And frankly, I think that a lot of Americans are acting like spoiled brats because everything that isn't working out perfectly every time.
Frank Miller
What I want to bring back to superheroes with this project is a sense of play. Things have gotten so dreary. The heroes have gotten so ugly that even their muscles have muscles.
Frank Miller
The Dark Knight series is all from Batman's point of view. But if you look at Dark Knight 2, you'll see a Superman who's much calmer than the one in the first Dark Knight. Batman and Superman are dead opposites. I love Superman. Do I love Batman more? They're not people. They're only lines on paper.
Frank Miller
Sometimes the solitary voice can be the best one.
Frank Miller
In the world of comic books, troublemaker means someone who has some sense of dignity.
Frank Miller
Nancy's got a guardian angel. Seven feet plus of muscle and mayhem that goes by the name of Marv.
Frank Miller
When you have a brush in your hand, inking a beautiful woman is a lot like running your hands over her.
Frank Miller
In a way, 'Sin City''s designed to be paced somewhere between an American comic book and Japanese manga. Working in black and white, I realized that the eye is less patient, and you have to make your point, and sometimes repeat it. Slowing things down is harder in black and white, because there isn't as much for the eye to enjoy.
Frank Miller
