Issue 1

[Peter Parker is taking off his Spiderman suit]
Peter Parker: Uncle Ben is dead! And all because I was too late to save him. My Spider-man costume! I wish there were no such thing!



Peter Parker: Aunt May, there's only one thing to do! I've got to quit school and get a job!
Aunt May: No, Peter, You mustn't! Your uncle always dreamed of you being a scientist some day! You must continue your studies!



[Spiderman wants to cash his check at the bank.]
Spideman: I'd like to cash this check!
Banker: I'll have to see some identification!
Spiderman: What about my costume?
Banker: Don't be silly! Anyone can wear a costume! Do you have a Social Security card or a driver license in the name of Spider-man??
Spiderman: N-No -- I don't!



[While writing his first anti-Spiderman article]
J. Jonah Jameson: When I'm thru with this article, Spider-man will be run out of town!



[At a lecture]
J. Jonah Jameson: The youth of this nation must learn to respect real heroes -- men such as my son, John Jameson, the test pilot! Not selfish freaks such as Spider-man -- a masked menace who refuses to even let us know his true identity!



[After reading Jameson's article]
Peter Parker: I don't get it! How do other superhuman guys, like the Fantastic Four and the Ant Man, get away with it? Nobody bothers them! And they always seem to make enough dough.
Newspaper stand owner: Bah! I don't even believe that there is a Spider-man! It's all a publicity stunt!

Issue 3

[Spider-Man first meets Dr. Octopus]
Spider-Man: Hold it, Doc! How about pickin' on someone who can fight you back?
Dr. Octopus: Spider-man!
Spider-Man: Well, I sure ain't Albert Schweitzer!
Dr. Octopus: You dare speak flippantly to me! You fool! When I'm finished with you, You'll sing a different tune!



Spider-Man: I wish there was a superheroes' union somewhere---'cause if there was, I'd make sure a fella gets time-and-a-half for tackling a joker with four metal arms!



Peter Parker: It's not that I don't wanna do my bit against air pollution, like anyone else--but first I've gotta rid the city of Doc Ock--'cause in my book, he's a one-man ecology crisis on the hoof.



Spider-Man: Like they always say--the show must go on! Altho' I never figured out why!

Issue 4

[Peter's classmates are watching Spiderman fight the Sandman in the school]
Kid: Boy! Did you see that!?!
Liz Allan: I wonder where Peter went? He isn't here!
Flash Thompson: Who, that coward? He's probably hidin' with his head under a desk somewhere!

Issue 7

[The Vulture has Jameson at gunpoint]
Vulture: I tell you what... I'll set the price myself! So open your safe and empty it out for me!
J. Jonah Jameson: No! No! You can't rob my payroll! You mustn't! It's all I've got! It would put me out of business!
Vulture: Shut up! I'm not interested in your troubles! Now do as I say... or else! And stop blubbering like a coward!
J. Jonah Jameson: Have you no conscience? No feelings? Y-You're as bad as Spider-man!
Peter Parker [thoughts]: Bite your tongue, J.J.!
J. Jonah Jameson: I've spent years building up this business... It means everything to me! You can't...
Vulture: Oh, can't I?? The Vulture can do anything... as you're about to learn!!

Issue 12

[A small crowd watches Dr Octopus unmask Spiderman]
Dr. Octopus: I should have known!! It isn't Spider-man! It's that weakling brat, Peter Parker!
Betty Brant: Peter!! He did it for me!! Oh, he might have been killed!
J. Jonah Jameson: The fool! I ordered him to take pictures of Octopus -- not try a be hero!
Police Officer: You mean you knew Octopus was here??

Scorpion: Go ahead, loud mouth, have your fun while you can...! (knocks Spidey back with his tail) ... Because from here on in you're not gonna feel like laughin' any more!
Spiderman: UHHHFFFF!

Flash Thompson: You should have let me know, Gwen! I'd have given you all the facts in person!

Issue 39

[Norman Osborn drop his son Harry off on campus]
Harry Osborn: Well, here's where I get out! Thanks for the lift, Dad!
Norman Osborn: Uh Huh...
Harry Osborn: Is anything wrong Dad? You hardly said a word all the way from the house to here!
Norman Osborn: There's nothing wrong! Did you want me to give you a lift, or deliver a speech on the way?!!
Harry Osborn: I didn't mean to get you angry! I was just wondering --
Norman Osborn: Well, don't wonder! It costs me a fortune to keep you in college -- so try thinking about your studies once in a while!



[The Green Goblin has an unmasked Spiderman captured and is removing his own mask]
Green Goblin: Take a look, Parker -- a good, long look. It's the last face Spider-Man will ever see --it's the real face of the Green Goblin. The face of Norman Osborn!

Issue 54

[Spiderman crashes in on Dr. Octopus]
Dr. Octopus: SPIDER-MAN!

Issue 73

Dr. Curt Connors: Look... I'm just a dime-a-dozen research scientist from the Everglades! I don't know what you're after, but you grabbed yourself the wrong man!

Spiderman: Wrong, Goblin! YOU'RE THE CREEP WHO'S GOING TO PAY! I'm going to get you, Goblin! I'm going to destory you slowly -- and when you start begging for me to end it -- I'm going to remind you of one thing-- YOU KILLED THE WOMAN I LOVE -- AND FOR THAT, YOU'RE GOING TO DIE!

Peter Parker: It may not be exactly what Spider-man had in mind, but I guess it'll do. Right, Aunt May?
Aunt May: One moment Peter, I've something to say to this gentleman. (to Scorpion) You should be ashamed of yourself, young man. I haven't a very high opinion of Spider-man... but at least he has manners.

Spiderman 1: Hold it right there... I don't know what the gag is, but I'm not laughing!

Cletus Kasady: Forget that Venom spook! All ya need is will! The courage to do things other folks are scared to!

Issue 529

Peter Parker: Back at the hospital, MJ had her right arm broken in the fight. But afterward, she was fine. What happened? I'd ask her myself, but I don't want to make her relive that day.
Tony Stark: Oh, that. Well... On the way back here, Jessica set the bone, and I injected a compound around the bone that sealed the break better than a splint and stopped the swelling. A secondary layer of flesh-tone silicone outside the arm compressed any residual swelling and masked the injury. Having broken so many of my own bones over the years, I've made that a standard part of my emergency kit.
Peter & Tony break the fourth wall and look at the reader, giving them a "And now you know" look.
Peter Parker: Good... Because, I was wondering--
Tony Stark: Yes, well, who wouldn't?

Issue 531

Titanium Man: This, Tovarisch Spider, is where it ends.
Spider-Man: Say 'Moose and Squirrel'.



Spider-Man (Thinking): This is your chance to look good in D.C., Peter. Don't mess it up. Think something catchy, something historic...
Spider-Man (Aloud): And don't come back!



Senator: For us to trust you, you have to come down here and take off you mask. Will you do that?
Spider-Man: It protects my identity. I'm sorry, but I can't.
Senator: Young man, you may be above the ground, but you are not above the law. That is a superpower which no-one has.



Titanium Man: When your government turns on you...when you are hunted and driven out...I wonder--How will you feel the day you run errands for other people...for briefcases filled with money?
Iron Man: ...Say 'Moose and Squirrel'. Just once.
Titanium Man: Amerikanski humor. But soon, not so funny, yes?

Issue 537

Captain America: Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world - "No, you move."
Spider-Man: (Pause) Can I, like, carry your books to school? For the rest of my life?
Captain America: Come on... time to get you back to the rest of the group.
Spider-Man: I mean it. I can give you my lunch. My aunt made tuna sandwiches. Again.

Issue 545

[Peter and Mary Jane accepted Mephisto's deal to erase heir marriage from history (and all knowledge of it) in exchange for Aunt May's life.]
Mary Jane Watson-Parker: It doesn't matter. Because whatever he does to pull us apart would have to be bigger and stronger than what brought us together and kept us together, no matter what happened. And there's no power in the universe big enough for a job like that. Not the Devil, not God, not anybody.



Harry Osborn (at his surprise party): All this for little old me?

Issue 547

Spiderman (after hearing the name of his new foe): Mr Negative! Are you kidding me! Did they run out of names at the name store?
