"I am the one who has been given a mission. Under the contract, release these powers. The winds are in the sky, the stars are in the heavens, the light is in my hands and the power is in my heart! And I shall shed my light over dark evil, for the dark things cannot stand the light, the light of the Green Lantern! Raging Heart Emerald Excelion, Set Up!"
"Magical Girl Green Lantern, Zenryoku Zenkai! Ready for action!" |
- An old Fanfiction by the name of Standing Tall from the now defunct site Second Impact hosted, quite possibly, one of the most Badass of Badass Creeds ever written; and it's delivered by Gendo Ikari of all people, to the face of a newly-restored Adam, describing human determination.
"Bring your thousands, I have my axe." |
- Also, Rei reverse-mindfucking Lilith, when the skinny girl literally thrusts her belief in life into Lilith's core in addition to the Lance of Longinus.

I swear to defend with my axe |
- "We're Power Rangers! We don't quit, we don't surrender, and most importantly, WE DON'T LOSE!!"
