Newcomers to the DC Universe may be surprised to learn that, unlike every other superhero and villain, Harley Quinn has only been around for a short time. She first appeared in Batman: The Animated Series in 1992, and her breakout performance cemented her place in the DC universe.
Harley Quinn has been the most popular character in the DC Extended Universe since her successful big-screen debut in Suicide Squad in 2016, owing to her wild attitude, which makes her extremely amusing. To further demonstrate this point, here are some of Harley’s greatest quotes from numerous incarnations that demonstrate just how insane she can be.
When it comes to Harley Quinn, there is no such thing as finality, as DC continues to find new methods to make her feel vibrant and new. It’s worth revisiting Harley Quinn now that Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is out, putting her back into the DCEU.
We’ve included some more quotes and explained the thinking process she had throughout these situations to show exactly how severe her crazy can be, and how much she likes being that way. The majority of it is nonsensical, but that’s how Harley Quinn is.

Top 100 Best Harley Quinn Quotes
“Now That’s A Killer App!”
– Harley Quinn
Harley had grown apathetic about death as a result of her frequent encounters with it, to the point that she found it amusing to watch someone die. One such instance occurred during the film Suicide Squad, especially the scene in which Slipknot met his end.
Rick Flag used the detonator chip in his body to blast Slipknot’s head off when he tried to flee. When Harley witnessed this, she joked that the gadget Flag was using was a “killing app.” After watching someone lose their mind, any normal individual would have been a little more rattled.
“A-Okay, Mr. J.”
– Harley Quinn
Harley’s devotion to the Joker has no boundaries and harming her lover results in her releasing her anger, even if it means Harley herself gets beaten up. We saw this happen in the Superman animated series.
When she ran across Lex Luthor’s aide Mercy, the two ladies began thrashing each other while Joker and Lex conversed amicably. This battle was so severe that both women were brutalized, yet all Harley had to say was this remark in a cheerful tone, as she wanted to make Joker happy despite the fact that she nearly killed herself for him.
“How Rude!”
– Harley Quinn
Harley didn’t seem to understand what was impolite and what wasn’t, and she didn’t seem to understand the principle behind it. As it turned out, the Joker obtained Kryptonite in order to murder Superman, which clearly enraged the kidnapped Lois Lane.
Lois, who was right in labeling Joker a psychopath and a murderer, was quickly silenced by Harley, who branded the former disrespectful. However, considering that the Joker was talking about killing a guy at the time, Harley’s labeling Lois as impolite demonstrated how illogical her thinking was.
“It’s The End Of The World. Have A Drink With Us.”
– Harley Quinn
We’re not sure if we should call her clever or insane in this scenario, because Harley seemed to be optimistic about the end of the world. As Enchantress’ victory loomed at the conclusion of Suicide Squad, Harley opted to take a drink instead.
While the others grimaced at the prospect of their deaths, Harley continued about his business, serving drinks for everyone and even inviting Killer Croc to join them. It was almost as though she delighted in the prospect of being murdered.
“Sweetie, Get Mommy’s Bazooka.”
– Harley Quinn
One of the worst things Joker and Harley ever accomplished was brainwash and transform young Robin Tim Drake into a young version of the Joker. Harley, who was far over her head with the notion, began referring to herself as Tim’s mother.
When challenged by Batgirl, Harley maintained a cheerful demeanor, to the point that she had Tim go get her a friggin Bazooka with the purpose of blowing Batgirl to bits. When your “kid” obtains an explosive firearm with which to murder someone, you are not the finest mother.
“I’m Rubber, You’re Glue, Whatever You Say Bounces Off Me And Makes A Six-Inch-Diameter Exit Wound In You”
– Harley Quinn
Harley Quinn’s threats are unique in that they take a quick and nasty turn. Even more disturbing is the fact that Harley usually begins them with her typical insane enthusiasm before revealing her actual intentions.
Harley is in defensive mode for this remark, as she is making a response when she believes she is being mocked. As a result, Harley goes through the whole “I’m rubber, you’re glue” routine, which quickly develops into the very real prospect of her shooting her would-be victim in the head. In essence, Harley has already made up her mind to blow the person’s skull to bits. Never mess with an enraged Harley.
“Stupid Bats, You’re Ruining Date Night!”
– Harley Quinn
In Suicide Squad, you may recall Harley and Joker’s joyride through the streets of Gotham, which concluded with Batman apprehending Harley Quinn. Normally, the advent of Batman instills terror in even the most heinous of criminals (Deadshot, for example), but Harley replied by blasting the car’s hood to finish off Batman, who was perched on the roof.
Harley, strangely enough, wasn’t so anxious about Batman taking her in as she was about the Bat “ruining date night.” As a result, Harley finds causing mayhem in the streets to be a romantic evening.
“Maybe I Can Stick You Some Shampoo?”
– Harley Quinn
This happened in an episode of Batman: The Animated Series in which Harley was holding Poison Ivy captive. Poison Ivy’s obsessive fixation with her plants is well known, and she was stressing out again over being separated from her “beautiful kids.”
Rather than being horrified by this sight, Harley assumed Ivy’s predicament was due to a lack of hygiene and provided her shampoo to wash her hair; it never occurred to her that Ivy may be upset because Harley was keeping her imprisoned. Harley is more concerned with his unruly hair than with his independence.
“Y’know, Bats? I Always Thought There Was A Spark Between Us”
– Harley Quinn
It’s never been said whether Harley has a romantic interest in Batman. We’ve seen her make advances on the Bat previously, such as when she kissed him during Suicide Squad, but they were all ploys to catch him off guard.
She had the same strange affinity to him in Batman: Arkham Asylum, when she seemed unconcerned by the enraged Batman approaching her. Harley, on the other hand, used this opportunity to inform Batman that she thought the two had a connection. Being stuck in close quarters with an enraged Batman appears to be something Harley enjoys.
“The Joke’s On You, I’m Not Even A Real Blonde”
– Harley Quinn
In every incarnation of the character, Harley Quinn’s hair has always been portrayed to be blonde. When she’s in the mood for a particular look, she’s been known to change her hair color, but blonde has always been present. In an episode of Batman: The Animated Series, she stated, however, that her natural color was something different.
Harley tried to make light of the situation while in Batman’s custody, claiming that Batman had underestimated her. Her defense was that Batman just viewed her as a stupid blonde, which she refuted by stating she wasn’t even a genuine blonde. To begin with, how does this prove anything? Second, if it serves no purpose, why has she remained blonde the entire time?
“You Really Put The ‘Fun’ In Funeral”
– Harley Quinn
Let’s be clear: there’s nothing enjoyable about someone dying. For Harley and the Joker, though, the chance to end someone’s life in a “funny” way represents a job well done. Joker was on a roll with his monologues in an episode of Batman: The Animated Series, as he continued coming up with new plans to irritate Batman, implying a large murder count.
Harley’s initial reaction wasn’t exactly enthusiastic, but she did say this famous statement, indicating to the audience that she had the same worldview as the Joker. You can guarantee that if you ever see Harley at a funeral, she’ll be doing her regular wild dancing routine.
“It’s Called ‘Animals Attack People I Hate’… It’s A Comedy.”
– Harley Quinn
It’s one thing to take a life, but causing agony before doing so reveals a person’s true nature. This is what sets Joker and Harley Quinn apart from other villains in their desire to inflict pain on their victims. Death seems like a great release when they eventually take their victim’s life.
Harley held a TV crew captive in exchange for this quote, to whom she gave her “performance.” Naturally, no one was impressed (they were too worried about avoiding dying), so an irate Harley offered her second proposal for a program, which was to enlist the help of Hyenas to attack the TV team. According to Harley, what genre did this program belong to? That would be a hilarious situation.
“Love Your Perfume. What Is That, The Scent Of Death?”
– Harley Quinn
Rick Flag created Katana with the aim of instilling terror in the Suicide Squad’s hearts, and it succeeded in doing so since Katana’s blade was said to contain the souls of her victims. Harley, on the other hand, was unconcerned by this knowledge and instead sought to develop a relationship with Katana.
Her way of introducing herself was to extend her hand straight up and say how lovely it was to meet the one who might imprison her soul for all eternity. To top it off, Harley enjoyed Katana’s alleged perfume since it reminded her of the smell of death. It goes without saying that even the danger of losing her soul isn’t enough to scare Harley.
“Mama’s Gonna Paint The Streets With Blood”
– Harley Quinn
Harley Quinn spent the whole game of Batman: Arkham City avoiding Batman rather than confronting him front-on like she typically does. To say the least, this was perplexing, but the reason for it was explained when Batman discovered pregnancy tests indicating Harley was expecting a child.
The credits showed Harley humming a lullaby to her alleged unborn child after Joker’s death at the end of the game. Rather than singing a lovely song, Harley vowed to paint the streets with blood in honor of the child’s father, who had died. What makes this the weirdest thing Harley has ever said is that it turned out she wasn’t pregnant after all, so she had pretty much convinced herself she was expecting a baby and was then singing to it.
“My love for my Joker was stronger than their madhouse walls.”
– Harley Quinn
Harley Quinn has been an instant legend since she first strutted her stuff in Batman: The Animated Series. She’s a psychotherapist, a fashionista, and a total outlaw. Harley Quinn is also motivated by dark and terrifying urges, as well as her love for the Joker, her one and only.
I’ve compiled a collection of the coolest Harley Quinn quotes I could discover to celebrate this diva and queen among mortals. So sit back, get some popcorn, and take in all of this anti-knowledge heroine’s and wit.

Get out of jail with a bomb on your neck. Save the world, go back to jail, and break out of jail before breaking up with the aforementioned madman, and going out on your own.
