"You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

When it comes to having the greatest rogues gallery to face off against, nobody - well, bar Spider-Man - can come close to matching the bad guys 'n' gals lined up to take on Batman.

Many will instantly go for The Joker as the greatest of these villains, yet one nefarious sort who runs the Clown Prince of Crime close on that front is Harvey Dent, aka Two-Face. A character who was created back in 1942, Two-Face has gone on to become one of the Caped Crusader's most iconic opponents; his tragic fall from grace and obsession with duality making for some of the most compelling Bat-tales in history.

Over on the silver screen, Harvey has been played by three different actors over the years - Billy Dee Williams playing Dent in Batman, Tommy Lee Jones playing the rogue in Batman Forever, and Aaron Eckhart taking on the Two-Face gig in The Dark Knight - and each of these incarnations of Harvey Dent has their fair share of fans.

Here, we've got a bunch of quotes that were all said by one of these cinematic Harveys. All you have to do is correctly identify whether it was Williams, Jones, or Eckhart who said each of these lines.
