Aquaman: Honestly– I think we're gonna be dead way before that. And you know what? I don't mind. It's an honorable end. But we've gotta shut Steppenwolf down. Superman's a no-show. [Looks at Batman] You've got no powers, no offense. [Looks at Cyborg] This guy might be working for the enemy. We don't know. [Looks at Flash] You're tripping over your feet, and mine– [Looks at Wonder Woman] Whuf, you're gorgeous, and fierce– and strong.
[Everyone is surprised.]
Aquaman: I know we went to war with the Amazons, but that was before my time. You know what? I don't wanna die. I'm young. There's shit that I wanna do. I just feel like– I didn't really embrace the sea or the land. I've been a loner my whole life. But being part of something bigger, like this– maybe I'm scared because– I'm meant to–
[Batman gestures to Aquaman, who realizes he sat on Wonder Woman's Lasso of Hestia. He angrily tosses it back to her.]
Wonder Woman: I think that was beautiful.
Aquaman: [To Flash] You say a word about this, and you'll meet every piranha I know.
Flash: I honestly didn't hear anything after "we're all gonna die."

Arthur: Strong men are strongest alone, have you ever heard that?
Bruce: That’s not the saying. That’s the opposite of what the saying is.

Barry: Whoever you're looking for, it's not– [Bruce suddenly throws a Batarang straight at Barry, who uses his super-speed to step out of the way. As he glances at the Batarang, he looks at Bruce in shock, then catches it] You're the Batman?
Bruce: So, you're fast.
Barry: That feels like an oversimplification.
Bruce: I'm putting together a team of people with special abilities. See, I believe enemies are coming–
Barry: [Grins] Stop right there. I'm in.
Bruce: [Surprised] You are?
Barry: Yeah, I– I need– friends. People are difficult, they require a lot of focus. They, uh– they have a rhythm that I haven't quite been able to– like brunch! What is brunch? You wait in line for an hour for, essentially, lunch. I mean– I don't know. People are– a little slow.
Bruce: I'll try to keep up.
Barry: [Holds up batarang] Can I keep this?

Bruce Wayne: There is a stranger who comes to this village from the sea. He comes in the winter when people are hungry, he brings fish, comes on the king tide. That was last night.
Arthur Curry: Talk.
Bruce: I believe that an enemy is coming from far away. I’m looking for warriors. This stranger, others like him. I’m building an alliance to defend us. It’s very important that I see this man.

Bruce: [Hands Barry a surveillance camera photo of the Flash] Tell me about this.
Barry: [Pretends to study it] This is a person who looks exactly like me but who is definitely not me.

Bruce: [Sees the Flash suit] Silica-based quartz sand fabric. Abrasion resistant. Heat resistant.
Barry: Uh, yeah, I do– competitive ice dancing.
Bruce: It's what they use on the space shuttle to prevent it from burning up on re-entry.
Barry: I do– very competitive ice dancing.

Bruce: And that's what science is for: to do what's never been done. To make life better.
Diana: Or to end it. Technology is like any other power. Without reason, without heart, it destroys us.

Commissioner James Gordon: How many of you are there?
Batman: Not enough.
Commissioner James Gordon: Do you really think that– [He turns around to see only the Flash standing behind him, the others have disappeared]
Flash: Oh, wow, they just, they really just vanished. Huh? Oh. That's rude. [Speeds off]
Batman: Not enough.

Cyborg: Superman! We gotta pull these things apart. A couple more seconds, you'll see your opening.
Superman: Any blowback?

Diana Prince: They called him Steppenwolf, the end of worlds. He lived only to conquer. Millions fell before his blade, or rose again as his Parademons. Nightmare creatures who feed on fear.
Bruce Wayne: Yeah, I think I met one. We didn't hit it Off.
Diana Prince: Here in Gotham?
Bruce Wayne: They're all over. They're looking for his… boxes?
Diana Prince: The Mother Boxes.
Bruce Wayne: Mother Boxes. I guess Steppenwolf took the one your people were guarding. That leaves two more.
Diana Prince: I'm impressed.
Bruce Wayne: Don't be. I have no idea what's in them. A weapon? Some kind of power?
Diana Prince: They don't contain power. They ARE power. Carried from planet to planet, the Mother Boxes combine to form the unity. An apocalyptic power that not only destroys worlds, but transforms them into the primordial hellscape of Steppenwolf's birth world. We should have died. But we formed our own unity. Amazons, Atlanteans, all the tribes of men fought side by side. Warriors of legend, allies from other worlds, even the gods themselves all acted as one. Laying down their lives to drive Steppenwolf away. Some say it drove him mad. The disgrace of his first retreat. He swore our alliance would crumble. That darkness would cover the Earth. And that he would return when it did. Left behind, the Mother Boxes were too dangerous to be kept together. One was entrusted to the Amazons. One to the Atlanteans. Both sealed and guarded in secure strongholds. The Box of Men was buried in secret so that no tribe would be tempted to use its power over another. Such harmony out of such horror. It was truly an Age of Heroes.
Bruce Wayne: Something tells me we're not getting the band back together.
Diana Prince: The Atlanteans were forced undersea, and the Amazons to an island they can never leave.
Bruce Wayne: Well, I wouldn't count on the tribes of men. We tend to act like the Doomsday Clock has a snooze button. How long until--
Diana Prince: --Days. At most. Steppenwolf's mistake last time was attacking us. He wanted to make the Earth kneel before he destroyed us.
