Call of Duty: Modern Warfare/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
"The world has been your battlefield. Everywhere you go the blood of brothers & sons screams out against you. Perhaps you cannot yet hear it, because the soil is not your own. But you will... You will."
—Vladimir Makarov
"The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is its last day on earth. But I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom. Good time to take... inventory. Out-gunned. Outnumbered. Out of our minds. On a suicide mission. But the sand and rocks here stained with thousands of years of warfare... they will remember us. For this. Because out of all our vast array of nightmares, this is the one we choose for ourselves. We go forward like a breath exhaled from the earth. With vigor in our hearts and one goal in sight: We. Will. Kill him."
—Capt. Price
"Five years ago, I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye... and the world just fuckin' watched. Tomorrow, there will be no shortage of volunteers, no shortage of patriots. * Dramatic Gun Cock * I know you understand.
—General Shepherd
"There's a simplicity to war. Attacking is the only secret. Dare, and the world yields. How quickly they forget that all it takes to change the course of history is the will of a single man."
—Capt. Price
"This is for the record. History is written by the victor. History is filled with liars. If he lives and we die, his truth becomes written - and ours is lost. Shepherd will be a hero. 'Cause all you need to change the world is one good lie and a river of blood. He's about to complete the greatest trick a liar ever played on history. His truth will be the truth. But only if he lives, and we die."
—Capt. Price
"All warfare is based on deception. For years, the West's hypocrisy has made the world the battlefield. The corrupt talk... while our brothers and sons spill their own blood. Deceit cuts both ways. The bigger the lie, the more likely people are willing to believe it. And when the nation cries for vengeance, the lies spread like a wildfire. The fire builds, devouring everything in its path. Our enemies believe that they alone dictate the course of history. And all it takes is the will of a single man."
—Vladimir Makarov
