8.5/10 Very well thought-out and philosiphical.

"Every day is a gift. Tomorrow is the greatest mystery of all, with no clue on the horizon to what may occur. the Past is known, and the present is the time given to you to do what you will with it. That, my friends, is why it is called the Present."

"Allow me to reinforce your cultural traditions," said by Prince Vlad Draculea III to a group of visiting Ottoman officials who refused to remove their turbans in his presence -- and thus were nailed to the Ottomans' heads.

8/10

Lord John Cutts, though at the time having no official rank and no weapon and thus neither compelled by duty nor goaded by necessity, felt it his place to step out in front of the men and in doing so reassure them by both his cool conduct and indifference to the fiercest of fire till he was shot down whilst still gallantly at their head.

Princess Isabella - Lord John Cutts posthumous Citation for Gallantry

“As a matter of fact I had no idea who he was.”

Private John Smith – testimony at the Cutts Citation Inquest.


“Sure, he’s a bastard. In fact he’s a bastard’s bastard. Just the kind of bastard we need to deal with those bastards over there so you bastards better get after him.”

Warrant Officer Class II Harlaan Kel (deceased) – quoted in testimony at the Cutts Citation Inquest.


“We called him the salamander because he always went where the fire was hottest and people nearby always ended up getting burned.”

Lieutenant-Captain Kendall Pierce – testimony at the Cutts Citation Inquest.

8/10 Very commendable although christianity would be a bit troubled without its martyrs.

"Princes does not run, mesire."

Princess-Regent Arabella Alcedina when asked to evacuate the Imperial Palace facing an invasion. The ninety year old ruler and her family stayed and partook in the fighting ending in a pyrhic victory for the Imperial House of Alcedina. The quote has later received cult status as the ultimate way for princes to discard any idea that could be considered cowardly.

So he did what any person would do when confronted with a bear in the middle of an international meeting; he tried to shoot him.

Lucky for all of us, Karakov is a lousy shot.

9/10 The ninth Federal Secretariat on government: "In the glorious beginning of our country, government's role was seen as something like a single-minded bodyguard; dressed in black, wearing dark sunglasses, entirely focused on protecting FUF from foreign invaders. And that was great, FUF grew to become one of the most powerful countries in the history of the world. But, my friends, we must be cautious. In recent years, government has taken a more active role in shaping the lives of our citizens. We must not let the determined, physically fit bodyguard turn into a sweatpants-wearing, self-righteous, fat-ass soccer mom who's more concerned that we "eat our veggies" than our national defense."

"ROLATTO IS MINE!" 2 days before he was literally forced out of power.


Image

"Fear is far better than respect!" 1 year before the rebellion.


Image

"As the old saying goes: 'Where there's a will there's a way'!"


Image

"We shall always have hope!"


Image

"If we show compassion to them, they shall show compassion to us!"


Image

"Love is the key!"


Image

"The White Light of Life shall keep us safe." While he was possessed by The Entity.


Image

"Soon, all of Rolatto shall be dead, and possessed by Black Hand!" While possessed by Black Hand. 3 days before The Entity possessed the remaining citizens of Rolatto and began a decade-long war to free them of Black Hand's control. Batman was then made King of Rolatto.
