{{quote|'''Mr. Mackey:''' Mrs. Cartman, we have had it with your son's behaviour, m'kay? Little Billy Turner is now being treated at the hospital!<br />
'''Liane Cartman:''' Eric, why would you do such a thing?<br />
'''Eric Cartman:''' [insincere] I'm sorry I handcuffed Billy Turner's ankle to the school flagpole.<br />

{{quote|''"They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the [[The Windy City|Chicago]] way!"''|'''Jim Malone''', ''[[The Untouchables]]''}}
 
{{quote| ''"In the sub-equatorial deserts of Kleizen Onjere, the planet's millennia-old soil conditioning has decayed beyond the inhabitants' ability to restore it. The water table has sunk too low and the earth has broken back down to abrasive orange gravel. At the long day's peak, the desert sweats out pockets of subsurface air, loaded with chemical compounds that sting the eyes and bring rashes to the skin, while bacteria inflame any cut or abrasion. The only refuges are the chains of steep-sided mesas that stand high enough to be clear of the sand-vapour until it cools and sinks away again in the dusk.''}}
 
{{quote| ''The Adeptus arbiters, whose polar training com¬pounds and orbital docks make Kleizen Onjere a nexus point for fleet movements across three sectors, also keep watchtowers across the mesa chains. Moving between them are the convicts, disgraced and sentenced officers of the Adeptus, trekking across the sand barefoot and in coarse prisoners' clothes. They each pull behind them a metal frame that supports a banner-pole, from which hang parchment lists of the convicts' crimes, the dates and particulars of their convictions, the seal of the judge who passed sentence, and the stamps of the chasteners who mete out penal labours or floggings as their particular punishment demands.''}}
 
{{quote| ''The crimes that brought this sentence were light ones, all things considered. Low-level incompetence in their duties, perhaps, or a speech that a judge had ruled might lead to sedition. It could be impiety, laziness, freethinking, or any of the myriad ways of putting the Emperor behind their personal welfare that the penal codes sum up as 'thoughts of self'.''}}
 
{{quote|''Whatever the crime, their convictions were judged not to outweigh their ranks, or whatever commendations, ordinations or charters of merit their service might have earned. If there was any question of those weights being equal, the dusty, gasping figure in front of its carriage would be marching into the maw of battle in a Penal Legion uniform, or lying in a red pool in front of an Arbites firing squad. No, the men in the desert were petty criminals."''|''[[Warhammer 40000]]''}}
Line 39:
{{quote|''"The disproportional response! Let the word ring forth, from this time and this place, gentlemen, you kill an American, any American, we don't come back with a proportional response. We come back with total disaster!"''|'''President Jed Bartlet''', ''[[The West Wing]]''.}}
 
{{quote|'''Namine:''' So what do you promise not to do?<br />
'''Axel/Zexion:''' We promise not to hijack and/or crash the plane.<br />
'''Aerith:''' ...I promise not to attack the pilot if the movie is ''[[The Devil Wears Prada]]''.<br />
'''Axel:''' I don't know why you regret that. That was the best honeymoon ever.|''[[Ansem Retort]]''}}
 
{{quote|''Listen, listen, cat's pissin'. Where? Where? Under there. Run! Run! Get the gun! Too late, he's all done.''|''Old folk rhyme''}}

Or else I will make you bleed internally."''|'''G. G. Allin''', "Automatic"}}
 
{{quote|''"Joey ate my last stick of gum, so I ''killed him''. Do you think that was wrong?"''|'''Chandler''', ''[[Friends]]}}
 
{{quote|''"Oh, tryin' to be friends, but people are jerks,<br />
So I'm gonna put some fleas on you<br />
And the fleas'll have the plague, and they'll make you cough a lot,<br />
And then you'll be too sick to hurt my feelings anymore"''|'''Plague rat''', "[[The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack]]}}

''of the officers, of the royal officers who had rebelled."''|'''King Ashurnasirpal of the Assyrians'''}}
 
{{quote|''"Men do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving. Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house."''|''[[The Bible]] (New International Version)'', Proverbs 6:30-31}}
 
{{quote|"I have killed a man for wounding me,<br />

If Cain’s revenge is sevenfold,<br />
then Lamech’s is seventy-sevenfold."|'''Lamech''', ''[[The Bible]] (English Standard Version)'', Genesis 4:23-24}}

{{quote|''"I am going to create an environment so toxic no one will want to be part of that club.
