Quotes
-
Clark Kent : Mr. Reynolds, I don't understand. We just met. How could you judge me so quickly?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : How do you know Lex Luthor?
Clark Kent : Well, he's a friend of mine. Why?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : A person is judged by the company they keep. In my experience, Lex Luthor doesn't have friends. He sees people as a means towards an end.

Lex Luthor : Spare the rod, spoil the child. You haven't changed a bit. What's next, school uniforms?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : I'd appreciate it if you'd stay away from my school and my students, Luthor.
Lex Luthor : Listen, Mr. Reynolds, I know we had our share of run-ins at Excelsior, but I was fourteen. Don't you think it's a bit petty to be holding a grudge after all these years?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : Well, that's awfully noble coming from a Luthor.

Lex Luthor : Interesting choice. "The Count of Monte Cristo". Classic tale of a man whose past comes back to haunt him.
Principal Terrence Reynolds : Why are you here, Lex?
Lex Luthor : We're upgrading our computer system at the plant. Thought we might donate our old computers to Smallville High.
Principal Terrence Reynolds : You're not an alumnus.
Lex Luthor : Call it a thank you. You pushed me, and in hindsight I appreciate that. In some ways, you're responsible for the man I am today.
Principal Terrence Reynolds : I'm not sure that's a burden I care to take on. Besides the tax deduction, what's the quid pro quo?
Lex Luthor : Now, why do you think I want anything in return?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : Because I've learned there's always a price when dealing with the Luthors.
Lex Luthor : I want you to stop turning your antagonism towards me against Clark Kent.
Principal Terrence Reynolds : Lionel has taught you well.
Lex Luthor : My father?
Principal Terrence Reynolds : Yes. This meeting, it reminds me of the incident that almost got you expelled.
Lex Luthor : He had nothing to do with that.
Principal Terrence Reynolds : No. Only later. After receiving notice of your expulsion hearing, he generously offered the school's trustees a new library, with two conditions: that you were allowed to stay, and I was allowed to go. History has an interesting way of repeating itself, doesn't it?
