Why so serious? I believe whatever doesnāt kill you simply makes you⦠stranger. Itās not about money. Itās about sending a message. Everything burns. You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. Iām an agent of chaos. Do I look like a man with a plan? You know what I am? Iām a dog chasing cars. I wouldnāt know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just⦠do things. The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules. This city deserves a better class of criminal. Madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push. When you say one thing is right, youāre saying something else is wrong. Who decides? Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? You canāt make an omelette without breaking some eggs. Never rub another manās rhubarb. This town needs an enema. Where does he get those wonderful toys? I am the worldās first fully functioning homicidal artist. All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. Why donāt you make like a tree and get out of here? Iām not a monster. Iām just ahead of the curve. Is it just me, or is it getting crazier out there? I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, itās a comedy. The worst part of having a mental illness is people expect you to behave as if you donāt. For my whole life, I didnāt know if I even really existed. But I do. And people are starting to notice. Comedy is subjective, isnāt that what they say? All of you, the system that knows so much, you decide whatās right or wrong. The same way that you decide whatās funny or not. I hope my death makes more cents than my life. You wouldnāt get it. Letās put a smile on that face. You get what you fucking deserve. Iām an agent of chaos. Some men just want to watch the world burn. Itās simple. We, uh, kill the Batman. Iām not going to kill you because youāre too much fun. You complete me. Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight? I make so much money, I donāt know what to do with it all. Waitāll they get a load of me. Can somebody tell me what kind of a world we live in where a man dressed up as a bat gets all of my press? Iām the man whoās going to kill Batman. You could say Iām a little⦠unstable. Itās not about the money. Itās about making a point. Nobody panics when things go according to plan, even if the plan is horrifying. If I told you the truth about how I got these scars, you wouldnāt believe me. Wanna know how I got these scars? See, Iām not a monster. Iām just ahead of the curve. Madness is the emergency exit. We stop checking our hurts long enough to check our weapons. Iām not mad. Iām just differently sane. The world only makes sense when you force it to. I am the night. I am vengeance. No⦠thatās the other guy. Letās face it. The Joker is the only one who makes sense around here. I just want to watch the world burn. Chaos is fair. In a world this twisted, the only way to stay sane is to go a little crazy. You canāt kill me without becoming like me. Iām not locked in here with you. Youāre locked in here with me. Wait⦠wrong guy again. Smile, because it confuses people. Smile, because itās easier than explaining what is killing you inside. The only way to truly know yourself is to go a little crazy. Everyone is just a bad day away from becoming me. I am chaos. I am the unexpected. I am the Joker. You canāt reason with a man who has no reason. Life is a comedy to those who think, a tragedy to those who feel. I just laugh. If youāre good at something, never do it for free. Iām not a villain. Iām the hero this city needs⦠the one who shows them how broken it really is. They need you right now. But when they donāt⦠theyāll cast you out like a leper. Itās the laughter that kills. You want to know what I am? Iām the punchline. The jokeās on you. Why so serious? Letās put a smile on that face. I believe in a higher power⦠me. Nothing is permanent in this wicked world. Not even our troubles. Iām the reason Batman exists. Without me, heās just a man in a cape. The more you struggle, the more fun it is. You canāt save them all, Bats. In the end, weāre all just punchlines waiting for the setup. I am the laughing man. I am the end of the world as you know it. Smile for me.
