Quotes

Jonathan Kent : [Getting out of the truck having just pulled up telling a joke to Martha] ... come on you liked it.
[Sees Clark walking out of the barn]
Jonathan Kent : Hey I thought you were going to meet us at the polls.
Clark : I have something to tell you guys.
[Jonathan and Martha both wait in eager anticipation]
Clark : I told Lana everything...
Martha Kent : [In shock] What?
Clark : ...right before I proposed to her in the Fortress.
Jonathan Kent : Clark have you really thought this thing through?
Clark : If I was ever going to risk sharing myself with someone, I want it to be with her.
Martha Kent : I'm proud of you Clark. I know this has been weighing on you for a long time.
Jonathan Kent : I guess it's just hard looking at your son and realizing you're talking to a man. A man who doesn't need his father's advice anymore.
Clark : ...I'm always going to need you Dad.
[Jonathan and Clark hug]

Lana Lang : [Clark is sitting in his loft on a cold winter's morning rehearsing in his head what he's about to say as Lana walks up quietly] I brought gloves and a scarf like you asked.
Clark : [Clark gets up, his heart is racing] I'm glad you came.
Lana Lang : Well to be honest, I don't think a mystery date is exactly what our relationship needs right now.
Clark : That's why I called.
Lana Lang : [Feeling his chest] Oh my God! Your heart is racing.
Clark : That's because I'm terrified.
Lana Lang : What's going on?
Clark : Lana, the way you've been looking at me... I already know that I'm losing you...
Lana Lang : Clark...
Clark : ...and it's not your fault. There's something I should have shown you a long time ago.
[Lana looks up at him with loving curiousity as they enter the Kiwatche cave together and walk into the crystal chamber]
Lana Lang : I've never seen this part before. How did you find it?
Clark : It was left here for me.
Lana Lang : For you?
Clark : I've gone through this in my head like a thousand times.
[Pulls the key out of his jacket pocket]
Clark : Lana, what I'm about to show you may change the way you feel about me.
Lana Lang : Clark, whatever it is it's okay.
Clark : [Clark places the key into the pedestal and they are both surrounded by beams of light] It's okay.
[Lana looks around in amazement as Clark reaches out to Lana]
Clark : Do you trust me?
[Lana grabs Clark's hand and they are instantly transported to the Fortress of Solitude]
Lana Lang : [In complete and utter amazement of the beautiful palace of ice before her eyes] Oh my God!
[She turns back to Clark staring at him with wonder]
Clark : ...When you asked me if I believed in life on other planets, you had no idea how ironic that question was... I'm from a planet called Krypton.
Lana Lang : [Lana walks up to him placing her hand on his face ever so gently] ... but you're just like everyone else.
[Clark looks at her and picks her up, gently and leaps into the air with amazing grace and flies hundreds of feet into the air and lands softly on an upper level of the fortress revealing a sprawling vista of ice crystals covering a nearly endless cavern of ice around them]
Lana Lang : This isn't the first time you've done that is it? How long have you kept this a secret... and no one knew.
Clark : There were so many days I wanted to tell you.
Lana Lang : What makes today any different?
Clark : ...I want you to know who I really am.
[Clark pulls out a lump of coal and crushes it in his hand revealing a diamond. He pulls out a gold ring and with a burst of heat vision, seals the diamond to the gold ring. He leans down on one knee with Lana in front of him eagerly awaiting what he is about to say]
Clark : Will you marry me?
-
Clark : [Inside the Fortress of Solitude with tears in his eyes standing there as a broken man because of the loss of his true love, Lana] HOW COULD YOU TAKE HER AWAY FROM ME!
Jor-El : Human life is fragile, my son. You knew a life would be exchanged for yours.
Clark : Don't make her pay for my mistake. If I hadn't told her the truth about me she'd still be alive! You have to let me fix it.
Jor-El : Your powers on earth may seem extraordinary Kal-El, but we are not gods.
Clark : This was not HER DESTINY, AND YOU KNOW THAT! There has to be a way... there has to be a way to fix it.
Jor-El : There is one trial you have yet to experience, but you must heed my warning. The tide of fate is impossible to stop. Even if you succeed in altering one course of events, the universe will find a balance.
[a glowing crystal rises from the control panel]
Jor-El : There is only ONE crystal. Once you make this choice, there is no second chance. Decide carefully.
Clark : I have to save her.

Clark : [Lana walks up to the farm house as Clark walks out as the snow slowly falls around them] I thought I wouldn't see you until tonight.
Lana Lang : Well I wanted to catch you before we got there.
Clark : ...Do I look any different to you now?
Lana Lang : ...Clark, you look like the same handsome guy I've always known.
Clark : Handsome as in I want to spend the rest of my life with you or... handsome as in I'm going to let you down easy?
Lana Lang : Handsome as in... Yes Clark. I'll marry you.
[They both embrace with the excitement of spending the rest of their lives together]
