{{quote|Hey, you know what really gets under my skin? Proverbially, of course? A century of wizards looking down their damn noses at me. ''Energy Drain!'' I know people think I'm stupid. Because I'm not a wizard. Because I get bored easily. Because I have no interest in strategy or tactics or contingency planning. ''Energy Drain!'' But see, I've learned a lot over the years since I died. A lot more than I learned during my life. And now I see that planning doesn't matter. Strategy doesn't matter. Only two things matter: Force in as great a concentration as you can manage, and style. And in a pinch, style can slide. ''Energy Drain!'' In any battle, there's always a level of force against which no tactics can succeed. For example, all I need to do is keep smacking you with Energy Drains, and soon you won't be able to cast any of your fancy spells at all. ''Energy Drain!'' Because yes, I am a sorcerer - and this magic is in my bones, not cribbed off of "Magic for Dummies." And I can keep casting the same friggin' spell at you until you roll over and die. You can have your finely-crafted watch - give me the sledgehammer to the face any day. '''ENERGY DRAIN!'''|'''Xykon''', ''[[The Order of the Stick (Webcomic)|The Order of the Stick]]''}}

{{quote|"''I will cut you [[When All You Have Is a Hammer|with my hammer]]. And Hammers don't usually cut, so try to imagine how much of a [[Cruel and Unusual Death|long and painful process this will be]]. ...And it's made of wood, [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|so you'll probably get splinters.]]''"|'''King Dedede''', ''[[Bowsers Kingdom|Smash Kingdom]]: [http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/428847 Melee]''}}
