Our Orcs Are Different/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


'Oomans are pink and soft, not green and tough like da Boyz. They'z all the same size, too - No big'uns or little'uns, so they'z always arguing about who's in charge, 'cos there's no way of telling 'cept for badges an' ooniforms and fings. Anuvver fing - when they do sumfink, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of 'em wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, 'arf of 'em believe it and da over 'arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it. Wot a lot of mukkin' about if yer asks me. An' while they'z all arguin' wiv each other over who's da Boss, da Orks can sneak up an' clobber da lot.
Snotgrub's view of humanity and its failings, Warhammer 40,000
The Orks are the pinnacle of creation. For them, the great struggle is won. They have evolved a society which knows no stress or angst. Who are we to judge them? We Eldar who have failed, or the Humans, on the road to ruin in their turn. And why? Because we sought answers to questions that an Ork wouldn't even bother to ask! We see a culture that is strong and despise it as crude.
Uthan the Perverse, Eldar Philosopher, Warhammer 40,000
We are da Orks. We always win. Espeshially when we win.
Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't loose neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!

'Ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go, 'kross de cosmos.
'Ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go, throo infinity.

Don't know where till we get there. 'Ere we go, 'ere we go, 'ere we go.
Common Ork space travel chant, Warhammer 40,000
The green tide of Orkdom is upon us and we are alone. There can be no mercy. No surrender. If we survive this day it will be a miracle.
