""Yeah, that might have hurt - if I wasn't fucking crippled, dumbass." Caine's response to being kicked in the leg, moments before he breaks the poor sap's neck."

"Having both his eyes put out by enemy weaponry STILL didn't stop Zizka, however – this tank-driving maniac was just too badass to fade away. He went on to command his army for 4 more years, the blind leading the non-blind, and still never lost a fight."
