From Nobody to Nightmare/Quotes

"I never asked for this
Or planned it in advance
I was merely blown here
By the winds of chance
I never saw myself
As a Solomon or Socrates
I knew who I was:
One of your dime-a-dozen
Medio crities
Then suddenly I'm here
Respected - worshipped, even
Just because the folks in Oz
Needed someone to believe in"

—The Wizard, Wicked

"I believe in them. I was one of them before I turned tiger. They can all turn uncommon if they're kicked awake like I was."

—Gully Foyle, The Stars My Destination

"Look at you, Jen. You were a sweet kid. Look at you now. The stuff of nightmares. I don't want my world populated by monsters."

—Ganger Cleaves, Doctor Who

"I was just a paper hanger; no-one more obscurer. Got a phone call from the Reichstag, told me I was Führer! Germany was blue, oh, what oh what to do? Hitched up my pants, and conquered France - Now Deutschland's smiling through! And now, it's Springtime For Hitler, And Germany!"

—Adolf Hitler, The Producers

"Turns out, mess with someone's head enough, you can turn a scared little kid into an all powerful bitch."

—Jack, Mass Effect 2
