{{quote|"Were my heart my master, I would do exactly as you say. But what sort of knight abandons his kingdom-his king!-now, when they need him the most?."|'''Camus''', ''[[Fire Emblem]] Shadow Dragon''}}
 
{{quote|'''Soldier''': "Lord Captain! We are the Red Wings, the pride of Baron! Must we now be thieves, sent to plunder from the weak?"<br />
'''Cecil''': "Enough."<br />
'''Soldier''': "But, Lord Captain! The Mysidians offered no resistance! And still we cut them down!"<br />
'''Cecil''': "Listen to me. We did no more than what our kingdom's peace and prosperity required us to do. The Mysidians knew too much of the Crystal and its secrets. His Majesty deemed it so. We are the Red Wings of Baron! It is not our place to question the orders of our king."|''[[Final Fantasy IV]] DS''}}
 
{{quote|'''American general''': "You mean your convictions or your country's convictions?"<br />

Line 19:
{{quote|"The world will '''never''' know how I struggled with the decision to '''stay out''' of the electorial process. Should I have gone on television and told the voters '''not''' to elect this man? And what then? If I use my '''influence''' -- my '''character''' and my '''reputation''' -- to tell people how to vote, what does that make me? I choose to fight for Truth, Justice and the American Way. And for all it's flaws, American democracy ''does'' work... The United States doesn't need me to dictate, or worse, '''deprive''' her people of that most precious gift. The freedom of ''choice''. Even when I knew in my heart that choice was '''wrong'''."|[[Superman]], [[Superman]]/[[Batman]]: Public Enemies}}
 
{{quote| '''Enoch Powell''': No, we do not fight for values. I would fight for this country even if it had a Communist government.<br />
'''[[Margaret Thatcher]]''': Nonsense, Enoch. If I send British troops abroad, it will be to defend our values.<br />
'''Enoch Powell''': No, Prime Minister, values exist in a transcendental realm, beyond space and time. They can neither be fought for, nor destroyed. }}
