Quotes of People in Your Nation Mk. VI

[Estainia]

"Love? Love is a curious, destructive, beautiful thing, Roland. I have seen it reduce men to weeping, and have seen it bring other men to song. It has started wars and razed cities. Brought pride to small men, and humility to large ones. It does incomprehensible, indescribable things to people, who will do anything, and I do mean anything, to be together. Do not mock it, secretary, it is more than a mere feeling." - Cornelius Andius, 2003

[Las Palmeras]

"Las Palmeras by 1899 was where men were men. And so were women in drag. And children were also men by the end of the war with the USA. In fact, successful countries allow themselves to fight near the bitter end in order to be rebuilt by the Americans. If you don't think Las Palmeras is successful enough, look at Germany and Japan!"
-An excerpt from a historical comic with dark humor

[Saunrea]

"It is easy to put differing opponents in the same camp merely due to some non-principlar similarities. However, it is important that in our minds we maintain a clear distinction of them, and not be deceived or blinded; they share similar contemptabilities, yes, but there is more than one species of pest."
-Tan Ha-ri

[Imperivm Terrae]

"Burn the aliens! Burn their homes, burn their factories, burn their fields, burn them! Burn! BURN! BURN! HAHAHAHAHA!"

[Slattsenw]

"I've been shot over seventeen times. I've died once, and faked my death another time. After almost being assassinated for the forth time, I was placed into a coma. Now, I am no longer the leader of my own nation, and have been trying to regain my foot in Slattsenw's political field. But I can't fucking get anywhere, and everyone I know has turned their damn heads away from me like I am a disgrace. I built Slattsenw into what it is! I am the rightful leader of Slattsenw! And I will return!"

~Nikolai Christ Palk, once Supreme Premier of Slattsenw, and sworn hero of the world. Yet, now an average citizen.

Let's teach these bastards a lesson -Younis Alarakhia, a high school student who was able to kill 3 gunmen at his school before being killed by a fourth gunman. His heroism saved the lives of hundreds of students and earned him the Legion of Honor, the highest civilian honor in our nation.

The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is its last day on earth. But I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom. Good time to take... inventory. Outgunned. Outnumbered. Out of our minds. On a suicide mission. But the sand and rocks here stained with thousands of years of warfare... they will remember us. For this. Because out of all our vast array of nightmares this is the one we choose for ourselves. We go forward like a breath exhaled from the earth. With vigor in our hearts and one goal in sight: We. Will. Kill him.- Captain John Price, just before embarking on a mission to kill a traitorous general who betrayed the Nation's Armed Forces while they were on the battlefield by calling a tactical nuke on them. He succeeded in killing the general, along with one other member of his task force who had survived the nuke, Captain John "Soap" MacTavish.

[Kombucha Mushroom Peoples Republic]

"Sometimes I remember that my purpose is defined by me and me alone. It is I who is the master of my fate, right? Surely a sentient being would be able to command and control their destiny, as how it has been told to us since we were young. I remember my nan telling me that I could be whatever I wanted to be when I grew up. Then I remember reality. My purpose is not so granted. A long time ago, before my nan told me those stories, perhaps before I was even born, it was sold to a corporate regime who assigned me another purpose, to be a drop of oil in the engines of consumerism. Then I remember that I'm not allowed to think that."

[-the Ukrainian SSR-]

"Swords are inefficient, why should I carry a sword when I can carry a gun?"

"A ghost? Yes. This is the ghost of Princess Katrissa, sister of the late king. She reportedly went missing in 1953 at age 27. To this day, no one has found her body. She reportedly loved shoes, and had unusual shoes made, including one with a heart-shaped heel, currently at the Atlantean Museum of Royalty, reportedly her favourite. It is said that she appears there from time to time."

"Clearly she's not helping."

A nation may claim power through its military. A nation may claim power through its wealth. A nation may claim power through influence. But unless that nation can claim power through its people, it has no power.
~Emperor Augustus Willanius

[Blakullar]

"We had the advantage in multiversal travel technology twenty years ago, and we blew it in spectacular fashion. We should have started to expand the instant we acquired it and smashed our Earthbound enemies into the ground when we had the chance.

Since they won the war, our old enemies have become weak and complacent. We are born-again lions, and the antelopes have grown too fat to outrun us. What an opportunity to set things right lies before my very eyes!"

~ Grand Curatrix Elena Trotskaya writes in her diary, c. 2172.

[Hawdhanah]

"Those imams and commissars, all the same in their roots, exist purely because where they thrive, they have not awakened to the call of the Liberty of the Individual yet. Because the People themselves have not risen up to defend their freedom and property, these barbarous rats thrive, and today they make up whatever little representation the Arab nation has in the world, as evident through Setsuzoku and other places. Basically, they suck, because they ain't Libertarian."
-anon.
