Quotes of People in Your Nation MK VII

[Estainia]

Greetings and welcome, to the Quotes of People in Your Nation thread! This one, as you can tell from the fancy numeral, is the seventh edition.
Here's the last thread, for convenience: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=350926

Thanks to Allancia and all the former hosts of these threads for setting an example of how these things are meant to be set up. Now, as the title suggests, just post some things that someone in your nation has ever said. They can be political, military, or kind of random. Just post it.

As it wouldn't be the the Quotes Thread without this wonderfully drunken tradition, here are the rules of the NSQuotes Drinking Game. I've made a few additions, and feel free to post some more if need be. I'll happily put them in.

-- Julissa Hickman, Citizen, to a student who habitually cherry-picked and ignored points.

-- Dalton Barbosa, former President.

[The Republic of Christiandom]

“Any problem can be solved with sufficient force applied in the right position.”
-Unknown

[Las Palmeras]

"It's not that I hate highbrow stuff, it's just that certain tragedies and opera rub off wrong. Sometimes I suspect stuff like that was made for people who wanna pat themselves on the back for having false pity on those they'd normally want to ignore or look down on, then they baww out when the 'inevitable' happens for being such good people. This coming' from the 'Slum Princess'."
-Montserrat Zorilla, General Security

[Bluelight-R006]

“We have eyes on the front of the head to look forward, not backwards.”

- Ladbroke Feinsteyn, famous physicist, IQ 170 in a talk.

[Terra Britania]

"I petition the creation of a new language/dialect designation for our Yank brothers and sisters: American. So that the name of the noble English language wouldn't be corrupted by some ungrateful gun-loving obese colonials across the pond."

- Username uwot_m-8 in an internet post, posted 19:52 (GMT) 18 October 2017

[Divitalia]

Gotta love the smutty children’s television!

-Neighbor Bob

"The quiet jittering of wrongfully pronounced Sindarin at the court in Alexandrovsk is painful to my ears. I can't even begin to imagine what the Flen ambassador feels, but I would not forsake that he's thinking about homicide for the brutal murder of his peoples language." - Cornelius Andius on some of the habits of the nobility.

[Escocaria]

"If you look through history, you will find that most, if not all, inventors and heroes are sinners. Some of these sins are small and inconsequential while others are praised for the deaths of hundreds or thousands of lives. So, it is of my firm opinion that you can only trust a Sinner to get any progress done while a Virtuous individual would be better suited to preserving the status quo. Just make sure you choose the correct sins."
-İmparatoriçe Annette II

[Arstotzmerika]

"YOU WILL HAIL TO BRITANNIA, FOOLISH MEXICAANS!"

-A soldier's war cry during the Britannian-Mexican War

[Luziyca]

"Luziyca did nothing wrong!"
-Ron Obvious

[Las Palmeras]

"The Palmeran involvement in WW2 could hardly be called that. It was more of an obsessive issue with the Special Police Bureau director -Ames- and Castillo and then Juan Perón, for being too nice to the Nazis. It was German diplomats getting car-bombed and shot, but Argentina was the real target and all of Latin America's europhile creole elite were the intended audience."
-Alfredo Reyes, present-day consul to Argentina

[Californiae]

"People continue to ask me why I ordered what I ordered on Azadstan in 2006. The simple answer? I will not fight my father's war transplanted from jungles to blinding desert. I will not play their game of shadows and blending in. These animals killed my people, so I killed theirs, all of theirs." - Gen. Soren Blackwell, F.S.A.

[Pilarcraft]

"People keep asking me 'Why did you do it, Mr. Aaronsen? Why did you kill Mr. Wineburrow?'. Well, it's the duty of every legal citizen to take justice in his own hands when the state fails to do so. Was any of you folks glad that that bastard got off scot free after all that he did, during the Neo-Imperial Era? I'm sure you all would've done the same thing, just as I did. For this, I declare myself Innocent, and deny any accusation of murder. Murder is for people, not animals"
~Njord Aaronsen in the Black Bloc Trial, on how he pleads for the case.

[Ashkera]

(As made by Ruridova Wisconsin, Allancia and whoever else makes up future rules).

Come now, I don't make the list? Ah, wait, Mackonia is in it. It's clearly out of date.

Woe is Z. Maglos, he was with us too shortly.

"Look man, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that when you put women in charge for real, across all of society in a way that breaks out of your, I dunno, Western Patriarchal Conceptions or whatever, what you get isn't a happy sunshineland utopia. What you get is Ashkera."
- message board argument post

"No, no, no, no. 'Tanks have feelings too' is a SHTPOST. It's a JOKE."
- comment left on ExplainTheMemes.com, an American website

#quotes

[Flowrisa]

“TEODOR, YOU BETTER COME HERE OR I WILL DESTROY YOU WITH A BLENDER!"
-Antonia Kostova

[Ashkera]

"Are you kidding? We can't allow the national government to find out this happened! We'll be dissected for sure!"
- quote from an Ashkeran zanhya (comic book) involving a body swap between two characters

"What do you mean 'what happens now?' Nothing. We've determined that this is magic - and magic isn't under the domain of responsibilities of the technocratic state. It's specified right in the constitution."
"I don't remember that clause in the constitution at all."
"That's because no one ever actually reads all 100 sections."
"So, wait, we're free to go? We're not under arrest?"
"You're not my problem. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some parking tickets to datamine."
- quote from the same zanhya

[Austria-Bohemia-Hungary]

"And so one of the two Greatest Generations of the 20th century marches into history. One that gave their lives only to see their homes, their country destroyed. We avenged them thirty years later. Now, We. Remember. Them." - Maria Melanie I., Kaiserin und Königin, Heldenplatz, 11th November, 2008.

[Auzkhia]

"It's not just different physics, it really is magic."
-The Bureaucrat, on the Auzverse.

"Fiction cannot keep up with the absurdities of reality."
-Heinrich Erdélyi, student of Uni Wien, author avatar

I'll update the OP at some point Ashk.
