"Some lame Batman wannabe is doing what a bunch of other villains have already tried to do for some reason... 'Remake the entire multiverse in their vision.' I feel like I've already read this story, but I understood it better. Everything in the universe is turned upside-down and jumbled like a greatest and worst hits album."
"I can't figure out what's going on. And the worst part about it all is...I don't care anymore."

"The Hunter didn't care in the slightest. He had his own way of living and everyone else had theirs, there was no point in trying to change anything. Even if he technically was capable of doing so, what was the point? Everyone suffers whether they wanted to or not."
"My name is Kyril Sutherland."
"I think this is the last page I will write. Dawn is coming and Gehrman awaits me at the great tree."
"I believe it is time to end things. Whether I wake from this dream or not, I'm honestly just too tired to care anymore."

Alan: Why would they close Parrish Shoes?
Hobo: Well... when his kid ran away, Sam put everything he had into finding him; his time, his money, everything. After a while, he stopped coming to work. He just quit caring. I don't think anybody loved his boy more than Sam did.

Poetry
My eyes are dry, I cannot cry,
I've got no heart for breakin',
But where it was in days gone by,
A dull and empty achin'.
My last boy ran away from me,
I know my temper's wearin',
But now I only wish to be
Beyond all signs of carin'.
Past wearyin' or carin',
Past feelin' and despairin';
And now I only wish to be
Beyond all signs of carin'.
I've got no heart for breakin',
But where it was in days gone by,
A dull and empty achin'.
My last boy ran away from me,
I know my temper's wearin',
But now I only wish to be
Beyond all signs of carin'.
Past wearyin' or carin',
Past feelin' and despairin';
And now I only wish to be
Beyond all signs of carin'.
— Past Carin' (Henry Lawson)

Beneatha: I wanted to cure. It used to be so important to me. I wanted to cure. It used to matter. I used to care. I mean about people and how their bodies hurt...
Asagai: And you've stopped caring?
Beneatha: Yes— I think so.
Asagai: Why?
Beneatha: (bitterly) Because it doesn't seem deep enough, close enough to what ails mankind! It was a child's way of seeing things— or an idealist's.

Carl: Just say smith again, it don't matter.
None of this matters.
