Admiral Buttercrust Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Any line in the original Resident Evil. Such as: "DON'T open THAT DOOR!" "....This mansion is HUGE!" "........It's a Dining Room!" "THIS HALL IS DANGEROUS!" And the very best of all "It's a Weapon, it's very powerful against living things!"

ForeverNight Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 "To the German Commander: Nuts -The American Commander" ~General McAulfie, 101st Airborne, Battle of the Bulge upon being asked to surrender. Possibly one of my favorite quotes from WWII.
CommanderQ Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 "To the German Commander: Nuts -The American Commander" ~General McAulfie, 101st Airborne, Battle of the Bulge upon being asked to surrender. Possibly one of my favorite quotes from WWII. That's an absolutely great quote:D That's the Americans for ya! Here's one from the movie "A Bridge too Far" German Officer: We come to you with terms of your surrender. British Commando: Well, I'd accept your surrender, but uh... German Officer: What? British Commando: We'd accept your surrender {looks at buildings behind him} I don't think we have adequate space to house you all.
ForeverNight Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 I wish I remembered where this one is from: "My left is crumbling, my right is demolished, my center is non-existant. Conditions favorable. I am attacking." I don't know where it's from, but it almost sounds like something from Keith Laumer's Bolos.

Jae Onasi Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Seen on the walls of bathroom stalls: "When incognito, do as the Cognitians do" Seen at the bottom of the stall door in small print, so you have to bend over to see it: "You are now crapping at a 45 degree angle" Sign above urinal: "Please do not throw cigarette butts into urinal" and written below that: "It makes them very hard to light." Written on a stall wall: "E=mc^2" followed by: "Very good, Albert. Next time, show your work. C-" Seen on MST3K's version of Cave Dwellers: The father says (with many pauses): The most important thing...is...imagination. The next most important thing... Crow: Is peanut butter!!!! MST3K's version of Big Man on Campus--a kid has a bank heist planned down to the last detail, but is thwarted by a train that stops his perfect timing. As he waits for the train to cross, still planning on the heist, he says: God help us! Crow: Oh, yeah, like with wars, famine, and poverty, God really cares about your little heist. And of course the quip by one of the MST robots in my sig, said as Romans carry off the delirious Greek Hercules: "Hi, we're IX-I-I. Did somebody dial IX-I-I?" From Henry Beard's Latin for All Occasions: "In the good old days, children like you were left on windswept crags to perish."
Astor Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Apologies for resurrecting this thread, but i'm reminded of the last words of a man killed 360 years ago today. "I go from a corruptible to an incorruptible Crown, where no disturbance can be, no disturbance in the world." - Charles I, on the scaffold before execution.
Darth InSidious Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 I could try and pick out the extraordinary quotes from this, but the whole thing is worth reading, so I'll just post a link to St. Edmund Campion, S.J.'s Challenge to the Privy Council. I can't think of many people brave enough today to issue something like that to people who want them dead.
