I Did What I Had to Do/Quotes: Difference between revisions

{{quote|Your Blood War can be summed up with the two most evil phrases my people know. Your foes, the demons, have the phrase, '[[For the Evulz|Because I can]]' on their side. You devils however have 'Because I had to' on yours. These two phrases, when distilled down to their essence, account for all suffering, and in the end, the latter is more destructive. The truest evil is not achieved by [[Card-Carrying Villain|the men who think themselves the villain]]. The truest evil is done by [[Knight Templar|the good man]] who does what he feels he must, and thus he does it without hesitation.|'''Lars''', ''[[The Open Door]]'' }}

 

'''The Operative:''' I'm not going to live there. There's no place for me there... any more than there is for you. Malcolm... I'm a monster. What I do is evil. I have no illusions about it, but it must be done.|''[[Firefly|Serenity]]''}}

 

{{quote|Regrets, I've had a few/But then again, too few to [[Mention/I Did What I Had To Do|I Did What I Had To Do]]/I saw it through, without exemption.|'''[[Frank Sinatra]]''', ''My Way''}}

 

 

{{quote|This form is the symbol of our determination! Foolish creatures, drunk on Spiral Power! We defended the universe by killing our fellow spirals and halting our own evolution!

ALL!!!'''''|'''Anti Spiral''', ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]''}}

 

'''Jack Bauer:''' For a combat soldier, the difference between success and failure is your ability to adapt to your enemy. The people that I deal with, they don't care about your rules. All they care about is a result. My job is to stop them from completing their objective, at all costs. I simply adapted. In answer to your question, 'Am I above the law?', no sir. I am more than willing to be judged by the people you claim to represent. I will let them decide what price I should pay. But please sir, do not sit there with that smug look on your face and expect me to regret the decisions I have made. Because, sir, the truth is I don't. |''[[24]]'', "Day 7: 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM"}}

 

{{quote|They were so close their stench filled the air... you can SMELL them, I tell you! Somewhere between the spice of vanilla and the bitter sweetness of pustulent rot. These creatures inhabit the bodies of men and women, exorcising the human soul and replacing it with their own putrid spirits. But they couldn't fool me! No, not at all... I could SMELL them, you see! They were all around me... dear god, all around... I knew what I had to do, they had to go, by blade and bullet I had to get rid of them! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?! Dear god, I had to do it... ''had to''... [[You Have to Believe Me|You believe me, don't you? Don't you?]]|'''Maximillian Roivas''', Ulyaoth Bonethief Autopsy, ''[[Eternal Darkness]]''}}
