'''Frank Hannibal:''' What are the parts of your job you like the most, Sergeant?<br />
'''Schlock:''' My plasma cannons. Using them. Explosions. Close combat. Cutting a wide swath through the enemy.<br />
'''Frank Hannibal:''' You like the killing, then.<br />
'''Schlock:''' Done right, yeah. Ending a horrible, evil person with superior firepower is very satisfying. It's so much simpler than how society usually tries to do it.<br />
'''Frank Hannibal:''' How do you feel about the word "sociopath?"<br />
'''Schlock:''' I get mistaken for one all the time.

'''Schlock:''' Hey, we don't need an employer. We're here, the mob is down there, and we're already dressed for dancing.<br />
'''Tagon:''' Sergeant, we're not going to go down there and start shooting just for the fun of it. We're soldiers, not sociopaths.<br />
'''Schlock:''' ''Not'' sociopaths. '''NOT'''. hmmmm... I guess I ought to go set the guys straight on that one.<br />
'''Kerchak:''' I like the way you bring out the best in your troops, Tagon.

{{quote|'''Captain Tagon:''' Sergeant, put together a team. We're going to sweep Southport.<br />
'''Schlock:''' Are you sure you want ''me'', Captain? The news said I'm a reckless, dangerously violent sociopath.<br />
'''Captain Tagon:''' You are. But you're ''my'' reckless, dangerously violent sociopath.

{{quote|'''Schlock:''' So...<br />
'''Thurl:''' Eat it, kill it, make friends with it or take a bath in it. THOSE are the points on your moral compass.|''[[Schlock Mercenary]]''}}

'''Karl Tagon''': Most patriots won't do certain things no matter how much they love their country.<br />
'''Karl Tagon''': But sociopaths... they'll accept any justification for the chance to do things nobody else can stomach.<br />
'''Tailor''': Don't worry, General. Your son isn't a sociopath. He might have a few on payroll, though.<br />
'''Karl Tagon''': So Sergeant Schlock is real, then?<br />
(10 pages later)<br />
'''Ebbirnoth''': You looked like you ''really'' wanted to blow it up, though.<br />
'''Kaff Tagon''': Someday... ''some''day {{spoiler|shooting up a high-speed train}} will be the right thing to do. I can be patient.

{{quote|'''Belkar:''' So, I did what I always do--murder people horribly--but because I killed the people everyone else wanted me to kill, I get presents instead of prison time?<br />
'''Roy:''' Uh, well, it's a lot more complicated than that, but--<br />
'''Belkar:''' HA HA HA HA HA HA! It's working! It's WORKING, SUCKERS!

Line 80:
{{quote|"''It could be safe to say that you would rather have a psychopath at your side that to your back, since they're more likely to splatter your enemy's brains on the wall than your own. The Sociopath loves to fight, or at the very least feels the most alive while in battle. They kill without hesitation or remorse, and only rarely do we see any kind of emotion other than a "Don't fuck with me or I'll shove a rock up your ass" sort of vibe. While dangerous and unpredictable at times, they often have a personal code of honor, and will not break it under any circumstances. Though we doubt shooting you over the last Pop Tart in the pantry falls within the confines of that code, so you'd best watch yourself.''"|'''[[Cracked.com|Cracked]]''', [http://www.cracked.com/funny-3872-bioware/ on] [[BioWare]] Heroic Sociopaths (Specifically [[Mass Effect|Wrex]], [[Knights of the Old Republic (video game)|Canderous Ordo]] and [[Jade Empire|Black Whirlwind]]) {{spoiler|and Gary Busey}}}}

{{quote|'''Sam:''' Max, where should I put this [bomb] so it doesn't hurt anyone we know or care about?<br />
'''Max:''' Out the window, Sam! There's nobody but strangers out there.<br />
''(BOOM!)''<br />
'''Sam:''' I hope there was nobody on that bus.<br />

Line 106:
{{quote|'''Black Mage:''' We can do this one of two ways. The easy way... Or the excruciatingly painful death way. I suggest the former, m'self. You're welcome to ''try'' the latter of course, but I assure you it's a wasted effort. You are up against a knife-wielding sociopath just ''looking'' for an excuse to hurt you, even if he has to make one up.|One of the "heroes" of ''[[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Eight Bit Theater]].''}}
 
{{quote|'''Garland''': What kind of tactic do you tend to employ?<br />
'''Fighter''': Oh, we usually murder our way to the top and claim victory whilst astride a pile of mangled bodies.<br />
'''Garland''': I see...<br />
'''Fighter''': But we're heroes so it's okay when ''we'' do that.<br />
'''Garland''': Now, this killing, would you characterize it as precise or strategic?<br />
'''Fighter''': It's kinda indiscriminate really
