Rachel Dawes: The D.A. couldn't understand why Judge Faden insisted on making the hearing public. Falcone paid him off to get Chill out in the open.
Bruce: Maybe I should be thanking him.
Rachel: You don't mean that.
Bruce: What if I do? My parents deserve justice.
Rachel: Well, you're not talking about justice, you're talking about revenge.
Bruce: Sometimes, they're the same thing.
Rachel: No, they're never the same. Justice is about harmony. Revenge is about you making yourself feel better. Which is why we have an impartial system.
Bruce: Your system is broken.
Rachel abruptly turns the car down a side street, taking them through the poorer sections of Gotham:
Rachel: Look beyond your own pain, Bruce. This city is rotting. People talk about the Depression as if it's history, and it's not. Things are worse than ever down here. Falcone floods our streets with crime and drugs, preying on the desperate, creating new Joe Chills every day. Falcone may not have killed your parents, Bruce, but he's destroying everything they stood for. [comes to a stop outside a bar] You want to thank him for that, here you go. We all know where to find him, but as long as he keeps the bad people rich and the good people scared, nobody will touch him. Good people like your parents who will stand against injustice, they're gone. What chance does Gotham have when the good people do nothing?
Bruce: I'm not one of your 'good people', Rachel.
Rachel: What do you mean?
Bruce: All these years, I wanted to kill him. [shows her the gun he planned to use on Chill] Now I can't.
[Rachel slaps him twice]
Rachel: Your father would be ashamed of you.
