"Welcome back to Jotunheim, Mother. Construction of the World Eater is well under-"
"Yes. Marvellous. That is all fine, but that flight was nightmare incarnate! I dare not even detail waiting in the terminal for three hours over a bomb scare - which predictably enough was a false alarm! And, just at the right moment where I believe that things cannot possibly get worse, my infernal excuse of a tray-table broke, and I wind up with a gallon of piping hot tea in my crotch! Imagine having your most intimate parts stung by a Vespa, an experience with which you surely MUST be familiar!"
"I thought we already discussed why we don't talk about that..."

"Rights given at the sufferance of another are not rights, but privileges, and may be taken as quickly and easily as they are given. Rights, true rights, are inalienable."

-- Chief Justice Dalton Renwick, U.S. Supreme Court.
Man exists for his own sake, and not to add a laborer to the State.

"Morph is more appealing to the tongue than zombie, I suppose, it's also less likely to scare someone. The end result is essentially the same, albeit with some differences, with enough quintessence invested, you can make a morph that is essentially an artificial person, or as the Romans say, a homunculus. These beings are utterly indistinguishable from the 'real thing', and I must say, if that doesn't worry you? It most certainly should." - Arthur Kerrain, Professor of Astral Mechanics at the Academy; discussing vitamancy and necromancy, and their greatest creation; the creation (or resurrection) of life.

"These invaders and imperialists were caught by brave National Militiamen plundering from our homes and residences! They know of no liberty, they know of no freedom, their minds comprehend nothing but gold and food, they come here not to 'liberate' you but merely to steal, to rob, to thief. But much to our pleasure, the wealth of Rigye shall satisfy this dangerous thirst of theirs once and for all."

"There is no committee, no vote, no pen nor parchment, that has the power or the privilege to remove you of your rights. For it is not those things that grant you those rights. Your rights are not at the mercy of others, no matter the intentions the others may harbor. No, it is only yourself who has that power. Only you can subjugate yourself. And only you can free yourself."

"I stated, or at least implied in stating, that it was the exercising of those rights that are worth striving for. Because that is what we normally assume when it comes to rights, frankly. Most agree with your previous statement that rights revolve around the exercise thereof. But if you cannot exercise those rights, it does not mean you do not have them."
