Quote #7
GREEN GOBLIN: No one says "no" to me!
How come Norman is not used to people saying "no" to him? Because he's got buckets of cash, and with buckets of cash come buckets of power. Once he loses his cushy job, which is another source of power—and of his sense of self—he gets all sorts of desperate.

HARRY: This girl is important to me.
NORMAN: Harry, please. Look at her. You think a woman like that's sniffing around because she likes your personality?
HARRY: What are you saying?
NORMAN: Your mother was beautiful, too. They're all beautiful until they're snarling after your trust fund like a pack of ravening wolves.
Not all rich and powerful people treat others like garbage, but clearly some do. Yuck. We're glad Norman missed out on Aunt May's scrumptious Thanksgiving turkey.
Quote #9
PETER (voice-over): Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "with great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift. My curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man.
We told you Uncle Ben's line about the responsibility that comes packaged with power was important. It's so important, in fact, that it gets repeated at the end of the film, too. Here, Peter is explaining that, yes, sometimes he'd like to just be a regular dude who could take M.J. out for that burger, but he's got those spidey skills for a reason, and protecting the innocent takes precedence over ground beef every day of the week.
