Barbara Gordon Quotes

And when their guard is down and their pride is rising... let me kick their butts up around their ears.”

“And he was the first crush I ever had that wasn't a scientist-- it's a different thing altogether. It made me a little peeved at myself, to be honest.

We were actually friends.”
