"There were no cowards in the First Rostilian War; that idea is a modern convention. In the trenches there died seventy Russo-Spanish generals, fifty three Britannic, forty Belkan, sixty Beusuan, over a hundred Roman and Ameri officers all suffered the same brutal conditions of their men, they all charged the same lines, sat in the same mud and died from the same shells. There were no safe bunkers a thousand miles away; there were no armchair generals; just real ones, who were just as willing to kill and die as those they sent to kill and die. And like them who I follow in the footsteps of, I march in the same lines, I suffer the same conditions; because any general who doesn't lead with his men isn't worthy of leading them to begin with." - General (and military historian) Luis Rivera, Commanding Officer of the 4th Estainian Army

"Come get me, lads!"
-Geoff Steel, Hockenbergian anarchist tourist shortly after publicly burning the nation below this post's flag during a visit to that nation

If he starts trying to burn other stuff, arrest him, and if it looks like he's going to endanger someone, stop him. Otherwise, let's just keep the mob away if it forms.—Anonymous New Madison police officer.

[Ruridova]

"It was a fight long and hard, but ultimately Ruridova did not hold Ratkhabang and Dhietnam.... we agreed to respect each other's sovereignty, even if we disliked each other's government, they let us have Phnum Thep and Sai Noi, and a conflict that was largely pointless for Ruridova and dangerously costly for them was over. We got involved again when the Ratkhan Rouge took over Ratkhabang and we pushed for democracy in Dhietnam, which is slowly becoming democratic, but other than that we've not interfered in their affairs since."
- Ruridovan historian

[Ruridova]

Nazi Dansbruckan Reichsmarshal Friedrich Eichmann: "Why, of course the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Vorodzhnya nor Ruridova nor Seyamajima; nor for that matter in Dansbruck. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship."
Ruridovan journalist Gustave Gilbert: "There is one difference. In a democracy the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in Ruridova only Congress can declare wars."
Eichmann: "Oh, that is all good and well, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to do the bidding of their leaders. All you have to do is tell them that they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in every country."
