Viktoriya: Excuse me. I'm sorry to interrupt, but there is something you need to know.
Second Lieutenant Tanya: What is it?
Viktoriya: Bad news. About Corporals Kurst and Harald.
Tanya: Yes. They're dead.
Viktoria: But… How do you know that.
Tanya: It was inevitable really. The pill box is exposed. It doesn't move. It's an ideal target for artillery forces. A perfect coffin for men seeking death.
Viktoriya: Lieutenant, you didn't know this was going to happen! You didn't send them there… to die, right‽

Bill Roth: I’ve bean doing a lot of research, and there are some good precedents for the vendetta defense — like, there was your uncle Osric, who took on the whole House of Karen over the death of a relative on his mother’s side. Oberon was particularly friendly with Karen in those days, too, and Osric offed three of them. Oberon acquitted him at a hearing, though, basing his decision on earlier cases, and he even went further by stating a kind of general rule —
Merlin: Oberon also sent him off to the front lines in a particularly nasty war, from which he did not return.
Bill Roth: I wasn’t aware of that part, but he did come off well in court.

Weigh the fist that strikes men down and salutes the battle won.
Imperial Proverb, Warhammer 40,000
Go out there and get that oven back or die trying. Y'hear that, Stormy? Die.
Capt. Murphy, Sealab 2021

Infiltrate a secure military compound and gain access to their ICBM stock? No problem! Seriously though, this is stupid. Borderline suicidal. No, we're not doing it. It's stupid. Really, really stupid. Whoever goes will be shot on sight. It is a suicide mission.
Zell: I'll do whatever [Squall] decides!
Suicide mission... "Whatever Squall decides!" Suicide mission... "Whatever Squall decides!" Suicide mission... "Whatever Squall decides!"...I HAVE AN IDEA

Least I didn't have to kill Greedo myself. I knew Solo would take care of that.
