Lex Luthor Quotes (Page 2)
Chloe: How did he die?
Lex: Natural causes. Apparently his heart just gave out.
Chloe: And you believe that?
Lex: Given what he was looking into, I doubt there was anything natural about his death.
Chloe: How do I know you're not just playing me here?
Lex: [sarcastic] You're right, Chloe. I could be. I often bring high school girls to the morgue to show them what happens when trained professionals cross my father.
Chloe: Well, there's nothing in my files worth killing for.
Lex: We've got a corpse here that says you're wrong.
Chloe: You're a Luthor, so it's a given that you're unscrupulous, but I really thought that petty larceny was beneath you, Lex.
Lex: Can you be a little more specific with the charge?
Chloe: I caught some creep in my office trying steal one of my computers. I figured either you or your father hired him.
Lex: But you're accusing me.
Chloe: You're what they euphemistically call the lesser of two evils.
Lex: I admire your take-charge attitude. Barging in here and accusing me took guts... or sheer stupidity.
Lex: So you took the liberty of rewriting our family history?
Lionel: That's right. Why should I have to pay for the sins of my father?
Lex: Sounds familiar.
Lex: I always assumed my father's knack for taking people's money was inherited, but I hardly think petty crime runs in the family.

Lex: Sometimes Clark's faith in his fellow man outweighs his common sense.
Lex: I believe the psychological term for refusing to accept the inevitable is denial. And no amount of probing can uncover emotional issues that don't exist.
Dr. Foster: Now who's in denial?
Lex: You'll have to forgive me, Clark. I have a personal bias against psychotherapy.
Clark: You don't like letting people in your head.
Lex: Something like that.
Lex: Interesting theory, Clark.
Clark: I know it sounds crazy, but that's what happened.
Lex: Now you're saving people in your dreams, too. I bet a shrink would have a field day with that scenario.
Lex: How many times have I come face to face with death and walked away without a scratch? I've practically lost count.
Clark: Weirder things have happened.
Lex: All this time I thought the reason I survived that Porsche accident was because of you, Clark. Now I'm not so sure. See, I've always tried to explain everything by looking outside myself. But maybe the truth lies inside my own physiology. Maybe I am a freak.
