Quotes of people in your nation MK. IV

[Estainia]

"By all means, when the Law has been violated, bring down the Hammer of the State. No matter how loudly the anarchist screams, the miniarchist whines or the liberals hollers. When the Sacred Law has been disregarded, it is time for a Reckoning." - Cornelius Maximilian, 1901

[Las Palmeras]

"I'm a very busy woman and I'm very under-appreciated. They give me hand-me-down uniforms while they make the new girls wear short skirts and tight white collar shirts so that gawking idiots can come to me to actually get information. If they bring me up, people complain that I look easily annoyed and that my voice reveals my impatience and aggression.

All this while I thought 'Smiling Buddha' to be a reference to my likes or my physique. But then I learned what Pokhran-I was. Smiling Buddha really was a code name for the true meaning. But I'd like to know which history major came up with that one..."
-Amelia Sánchez Tobin, receptionist, 2169

[Las Palmeras]

"Yeah, Mélanie is one of the most popular girls in the Red House. She's like 19 to 20 years old, and because she's a catgirl she looks younger. But she's an exception because she looks really young. She always uses little pigtails and talks in a really high-pitched and clueless sounding voice. When people are waiting, she sits around licking lollipops and such."
-An airman, on the Red House

I hoped the desired result was achieved. I in no way endorse lolicon.

[Massena]

"Landings of multiple forces simultaneously on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of Mexico, perhaps centered around Mazatlán and Veracruz respectively, could serve to divide and break into many individual pieces the already outnumbered Loyalists and their French colleagues. A third force, marching overland into Chihuahua, could provide the main striking mass of the liberation, while a large allied force in his immediate area could not help but to reinforce the strength and flagging morale of President Juarez and his army."

~ Col. Simon Morris, R.M.A., in a telegram to his superiors in the War Department, 1866.

"... is it even possible for me to commit treason?"

"Apparently."

—Dmitri Kozlov, Commander in Chief, and President Anton Vasiliev, after finding out that the former had been charged with treason.

—Dmitri Kozlov, Commander in Chief, and President Anton Vasiliev, after finding out that the former had been charged with treason.

"Kozlov charged with treason? Fuck yes."
- Agata Novotny Most Ruridovans are of the opinion that Vasiliev did not order either the attempted car bombing of RNIF leadership or the poisoning of Svatopolk Obrenovic, but that it was Kozlov(or, rarely, another major Wisconsinite military-intelligence figure) acting rogue without orders from central authority

Oh, it was a while ago, and it was all cleared up.—Dmitri Kozlov and it would actually be impossible for Vasiliev to order any military operation, overt or covert, as in most cases the civilian government does not have significant authority over the military.

"How terrifying, o'mighty one in all your strength... I am humbled before you, truly... Not." - Cornelius Maximilian prior to kicking a dictator in the shin. People died this day.

[Bereia]

"I went from town to town during my time there, traveling by various means, sometimes just walking. In each town my first act was to seek out a family who would let me stay with them for a little while. If there was one, then I stayed with them the whole time. I ate the food they gave me, I slept in the place they let me use, and every day I would talk of my religion to anybody who had the will to listen. I also helped the locals with odd jobs, and used my medical training where possible. I saved one or two lives, and hopefully more than a few souls. Even if not, I tried the hardest I know how. Nobody ever said walking the mission field was an easy thing."

-- Dr. Genevieve Roush, a Christian missionary in Estainia.

[Estainia]

"From experience, I have great sympathy for any moron foolish enough to go preach about Jesus or Allah or any one other than Taen in areas heavily populated by Darcsen. You will get fucked up. The Lord of Light is the One True God and if you disagree well then may God have mercy on your soul, because they won't." - Sir Alexander Yordanov

[Wisconsin9]

You are the most unbelievably infuriating group of jackasses I have ever had the displeasure of meeting.—President Anton Vasiliev, during a Politburo meeting.

[Bereia]

"I never tried to be forceful. If the locals of a given place did not want me there, I dusted off my boots and I left. You cannot force a man to the right path. You can only show him where it is."

-- Dr. Genevieve Roush, a Christian missionary in Estainia.

[Estainia]

"I can only assume you never actually used those choice of words here because you are still breathing." - Sir Alexander Yordanov

[Senyosu]

When Christianity was brought to Senyosu, it was accepted with open arms. Then it slowly assimilated with Senyonese folk beliefs and essentially became an aspect of Senyosu. Well, that was also due to the Vatican excommunicating every Catholic Christian here as a result of the Hyatōri and Kaseda clans decided to forcefully buy up all the Portuguese weaponry and... Took all the missionaries hostage so they can convert the nation more effectively to Christianity. It's true! My forefathers forced missionaries to convert people to their faith of choosing, Go to the south of the country. All the buildings look very Portuguese. Hell, there are two functioning cathedrals there!

-Hyatōri Misamunē, commenting on Senyonese Folk Religion (Enyoism) and how it absorbed Catholic traditions, like baptism and Latin rites-

[Greater Mackonia]

"Christianity, the Religion of Love, brought nothing but pain,death and slavery to Mackonia, literally millions of Macks are thought to have died at the hands of the Order*, even worse were the successive local tyrants and warlords who decided to use that religion of compassion for their own ends and butchered millions more as a result. Almost every face to have oppressed and lied to the Mackonian people has borne a cross and an incense stick, not to mention the multitude of philosophical and ethical objections Mackonian culture has to a religion based largely on emotions Macks can barely feel. It does not help one bit that those of us who do profess a faith do it to a God, well you would call him a demon, who has absolutely no qualms in appearing and actually doing stuff for his worshipers, not always good stuff but he does enough for people not to question his existence for long. Now you tell me that you are positive the Mackonian people, not folks renowned for their stable temperament, are going to even listen to you...let alone let you come out alive"

-Z.Maglos, having rescued a Christian missionary who did not heed this warning and was later strangled with his own intestines. He speaks the truth in the fact that powers foreign and local have hardly followed traditional doctrines of peace and love when spreading the word of Christ in Mackonia.

"Lord Zathranthrazhil, who reads the ebb and flow of our loyalty in our entrails, is the only God who may thrive in these lands of Mackonia, it is our sacred and solemn duty to purge all who insult his wondrous appendages and filthy the air of his realm with their lies, they feed us lies and cackle away in half-forgotten caves about how it keeps us sedate and placid, aha caught you dog! For we spit out the cake, the cake of lies, the lie-cake and feed the spittle to the maggots. This makes the maggots placid and we can now hunt them down without fear of singeing our ileums, we stab the maggot-cakes for this pieces their hearts and then we can eat them with the salt of paradise and absorb the power of their thoughts. Lord Zathranthrazhil will protect us against the unbelievers."

"People are inherently good, that's why they keep voting for me. That's why they vote for a universal healthcare system, cheap university tuition, subsidized childcare, funeral grants etc.
Nature, on the other hand is inherently cruel and indifferent, that's why they keep voting for me. That's why they vote for a universal healthcare system, cheap university tuition, subsidized childcare, funeral grants etc."
