Whoa really thats awesome man . its mexrell <| sep |> That quote actually makes no sense . How are those two things even remotely similar ? <| sep |> I disagree with you but I totally understand where you are coming from . I love this speech and it has always been one that I remember . The way I see it is Bruce Wayne wasn ' t always batman , and when he dresses as him he puts on his costume to protect those close to him . A lot of batmans tactics are almost theatrical in the way he tries to induce fear and I think that the way he acts himself is also somewhat of an act . However as time passes he does get more obsessed with crime fighting and his personality is altered by being batman . It ' s hard to say what his true identity is . I think the heroes that do not hide their identity , like iron man , are not who Bill is referring to in this speech and that it is a simplified black and white view on superheroes .
