harm the child."

I am Coalition Sergeant Hartman, your senior Drill Instructor.
From now on, you will speak only when spoken to, and the first and last words out of your filthy sewers will be sir.
Do you Nxla understand that?
--Sir, Yes Sir!
Bull****, I can't hear you. Sound off like ya got a boom-gun!
--SIR, YES SIR!
If you Splugorth leave my camp, if you survive survive recruit training, you will be a weapon.
You will be a minister of death praying for war.
But until that day you are aliens.
You are the lowest form of life on Earth.
You are not even magic using wizards.
You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of d-bee sh*t.
Because I am hard you will not like me.
But the more you hate me the more you will learn.
I am hard but I am fair.
There is no social bigotry here.
I do not look down on burb-towners, organ leggers, d-bee lovers, or gamers.
Here you are all equally worthless.
And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve my beloved Proseks.
Do you Nxla understand that?


In Africa:
Lord Coake: "Do you expect me to talk?"
Death: "No, Lord Coake, I expect you to die!"


"You still don't understand, Erin, you were never a girl in this place."


Emperor Prosek: "Lord Coake never told you the truth, Erin."
Erin Tarn: "He told me enough!"
Emperor Prosek: "No, Erin, I am your father!"
Erin Tarn: "No, that's impossible!"

I'll have a look, but it was posted about a year or so ago under the name of 'rifts the musical'. I THINK Zerebus had a hand in it somewhere.

Gee last I checked a quote is any reference to material that does not belong to you. Most often published.

In either case music with lyrics still count because you know what they do with the lyrics?? Yeah thats right they publish.

Unknown Hero in bad Trouble: Sh*t! I hate not being the bad guys!


Elemental Intelligence living in North America: They are an army unlike any other... crusading across North American toward a place called Tolkeen, their promised land - an expanse of terrirtory to wipe clean of a taint. Coalition Dead Bodys, they're called. And if they cannot convert you, they will kill you. Leading them, the Emperor Prosek. He alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of Lonestar ... and returned a different being. Stronger. Stranger. Half alive and half ... something else. If we are to survive, a new balance must be found. In normal times, evil would be fought by good. But in times like these, well, it should be fought by another kind of evil.


Col. Lyboc: I've done... unbelievable things... in the name of a faith that was never my own.

Dark City... an ultra-cool movie filmed right here in Australia! I knew people who were in it!!


And I was ment to work on it! I had lined up a job to be one of the assistant modellers with 2D/3D Inc, which is a small special fx company that opperated out of Linden near the Blue Mountains. But we lost contact with each other. At the time they didn't know what the project was going to be. All Loius was told was that it was going to be a dark, gritty, possibly post apocalyptic project. He didn't even know if it was going to be a tv ad, tv series, movie, telemovie or what. Then when we went to see Dark City, I kept saying that I bet this was the movie. And when it was finished, I waited until the credits got to the sfx crew. And there it was, 2D3D inc.

I missed my chance....

I have it at home on DVD
The Day The Earth Stood Still... It had to be told to Gort else he destroy the world.
I'd get up in the morning and watch the sun rise over the yardarm of my sky-ship as the sails billowed in the breeze and the land slid by 300-odd metres below. I'd grasp the mahogany ship's wheel, turn her nose a few points back onto the line, and feel pity for all those poor bastards below who have to work for a living. - My idea of the good life in Rifts.

Plato: I am to charge you with a holy crusade.
Hapless Cyberdoc: For the record, I work in a cyber clinic.
Plato: Lord Coake was a humble man. Look what he accomplished. And no one's even asking you to found the Cyber Knights. All you have to do is go to New Jersey, and visit a small megalith on a very important day.
Hapless Cyberdoc: New Jersey? That doesn't sound like much of a crusade.
Plato: Aside from the fine print, that's it.
Hapless Cyberdoc: What's the fine print?
Plato: [mumbles] Stopacoupleofdemonsfromdestroyingthemegalithandthusnegatingallexistence.
Hapless Cyberdoc: Wait, wait, wait. Repeat that.
Plato: Stop a couple of demons from destroying the megalith and thus negating all existence. I hate when people need it spelled out for them.

Show me Heaven, show me Hell,
show me what lies beyond.

I will love you like none other
for I have died a thousand tiny deaths
and every time I died I thought of you ~

I love you. I've tasted Hell.
I hate you. I've seen Heaven.
I know you. I've found myself.

Please don't fear me ~
I know your pain, your sorrow ~
I know your dreams and nightmares ~
I know you ~
I am the Goddess that you pray to . . .

I traded a life of human riches
for a life of cosmic resplendence.

I am Aurora ~ I am Isis ~
I am Gaia ~ I am Cerridwen ~
I am yours and I will cry for you.

Just a few quotes from a cool comic book character. Couldn't really think of any mortal that could "step" into these.
