Michael Rosenbaum: Lex Luthor

Quotes 

• Lex Luthor : [to his father's unconscious body after element has caused him to have a seizure]  Dad, can you hear me? You did create the son you always wanted.

• Lex Luthor : Dad, don't you think your search for these three ancient stones is starting to border on the fanatical?

  Lionel Luthor : Let me remind, you, Lex... it was you who looted the ruins of Egypt to get your hands on one of those stones.

  Lex Luthor : Trust me, Lana Lang has nothing to do with this.

  Lionel Luthor : So chivalrous of you. You are the gallant hero trying to protect the damsel in distress. Hm?

  Lex Luthor : I'm warning you. Leave her alone.

  Lionel Luthor : All your life, you've had a tendency to let the damsel lead you straight into the mouth of the dragon. Your feeling for Miss Lang, don't let them cripple your common sense, son.

• Lex Luthor : Come on, Chloe! You're the town purveyor of all things unexplained. You damn well know about this cave and the stones.

  Chloe Sullivan : Lex, what's wrong with you?

  Lex Luthor : If you didn't break into my library, you know who did. Who are you trying to protect?

  Chloe Sullivan : No one.

  Lex Luthor : Is it Clark?

  Chloe Sullivan : Clark? Of course not. What does Clark have to do with any of this?

  Lex Luthor : You tell me. You've known Clark a lot longer than I have. In fact... you might know him better than anyone.

  Chloe Sullivan : You're right, Lex, I do. And the Clark I know is the last person to go super-thief on your library for some stupid piece of rock.
