| What's the quote from a movie, tv series, book or game, whatever you can imagine it can come from, that you liked the most out all of the others?
Mine is this: "Only the dead have seen the end of War". I think it was from Plato, but i heard it in a lot of games, movies ( example: BlackHawk Down intro)

| This may be silly being here with quotes from great philosophers as Ubisoft doesn't have the best writers but i really like Blackbeard's line in Assassins creed 4 "In a world without gold, we might have been heroes" pretty epic during that scene.
As for a favorite quote from history it would probably be "Only the dead have seen the end of War" Too.
its probably sadly true.

| Revenge might give you a warm feeling, but unless it delivers some lasting results you might as well have a nice cup of mocha instead.

Yea, I was having a philosophical discussion with my English teacher and this was in my head right now I am actually studying philosophy in Uni. And could probably give hundreds of qoutes like this. However I will instead give two of my all time faves (and theres a lot): Vi veri universum vivus vici ( "By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe".) -V (V for Vendetta) & A man chooses....A Slave Obeys. -Andrew Ryan (Bio-shock) |

| "We don't need anyone to tell us what to do...We are free to follow our own path. There are those who will take that freedom from us, and too many of you gladly give it. But it is our ability to choose - whatever you think is true - that makes us human. There is no book or teacher to give you the answers, to show you the path. Choose your own way. Do not follow me or anyone else."

We will add your biological and tecnolocial distinctiveness to our own.
