Until a man is twenty-five, he still thinks, every so often, that under the right circumstances he could be the baddest motherfucker in the world. If I moved to a martial-arts monastery in China and studied real hard for ten years. If my family was wiped out by Colombian drug dealers and I swore myself to revenge. If I got a fatal disease, had one year to live, and devoted it to wiping out street crime. If I just dropped out and devoted my life to being bad.
Hiro used to feel this way, too, but then he ran into Raven. In a way, this was liberating. He no longer has to worry about being the baddest motherfucker in the world. The position is taken.
-- Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash
On another Avengers-related moment, from Avengers 1, when Cap, Nat and Tony are in the Quinjet with Loki. There is a foreshadowing thunderstorm outside, and Loki looks nervous.
Cap: "What's the matter? Scared of a little lightning?"
Loki: "I'm not OVERLY fond of what follows."
"Stark tell you anything else?"
"That you're wrong. You think you're right. That makes you dangerous."
