"Of all the creatures in the vastness of the universe, there is none like me. I was present at the birth of the universe, and I shall be there at its end. Though I ravage worlds to live, I bear no malice to any living thing. I simply do what I must to survive. And why must Galactus survive? For, no matter how many worlds I devour... How many civilizations I destroy... It is my destiny to one day give back to the universe infinitely more than I have ever taken from it. So speaks Galactus." --Galactus, The Origin of Galactus (Marvel Comic, 1996)

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
-Douglas Adams

okay these are quotes from the Movie V for Vendetta. there are a TON of them, so yeah.
(Upon meeting Evey Hammond) Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V. (In simpler words) Behold, at first glance a humble stage actor, chosen by fate against his will as both the victim and villain. This face you see now is not just a layer of vanity, it is a remnant of the voice of the people, which has now gone and disappeared. However, this brave return of a past annoyance stands reborn, and has promised to conquer the evil and corrupt who promote greed and the violent suppression of free will. The only choice is revenge, held as a candle in the darkness, not in vain, for the value and the truth of this quest shall lead the watchful and the righteous to freedom. But in truth, this thick soup of words is becoming excessive, so let me simply say that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.
Good evening, London. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of every day routine- the security, the familiar, the tranquility, repetition. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, thereby those important events of the past usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, a celebration of a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this November the 5th, a day that is sadly no longer remembered, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. There are of course those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with guns will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the annunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance, and depression. And where once you had the freedom to object, think, and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillence coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myraid of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, Adam Sutler. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. Last night I sought to end that silence. Last night I destroyed the Old Bailey, to remind this country of what it has forgotten. More than four hundred years ago a great citizen wished to embed the fifth of November forever in our memory. His hope was to remind the world that fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words, they are perspectives. So if you've seen nothing, if the crimes of this government remain unknown to you then I would suggest you allow the fifth of November to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me one year from tonight, outside the gates of Parliament, and together we shall give them a fifth of November that shall never, ever be forgot.
Fear became the ultimate tool of this government.
Those who are responsible will be held accountable.
Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.
But if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
"The multiplying villainies of nature do swarm upon him." (Macbeth)
"Disdaining fortune with his brandished steel/which smoked with bloody execution..." (Macbeth)
"We are oft to blame in this. 'Tis too much proved that with devotion's visage and pious action we do sugar o'er the devil himself." (Hamlet)
"And thus I clothe my naked villainy/With old odd ends, stol'n forth of holy writ;/And seem a saint, when most I play the devil" (Richard III)
I dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do more is none. (Macbeth)
"Conceal me what I am, and be my aid/For such disguise as haply shall become/The form of my intent." (Twelfth Night)
God is in the rain.
You did this to me? You cut my hair? You tortured me? You tortured me! Why?
I worried about myself for awhile. But one day I was at a market and a friend, someone I'd worked with at the BTN got in line behind me. I was so nervous that when the cashier asked me for my money I dropped it. My friend picked it up and handed it to me. She looked me right in the eye and didn't recognize me. I guess whatever you did to me worked better than I'd ever have imagined.
Because he was right. This country needs more than a building right now. It needs hope.
Tell me, do you enjoy music, Mr. Finch?
He was Edmond Dantes. And he was my father. My mother. My brother. My friend. He was you, and me. He was all of us.
Everyone remembers the idea and what he did that night. But I will always remember the man and what he did for me.
Are you like a crazy person? (in response to the above "V monologue")
I wish I wasn't afraid all the time but... I am.
I can't feel anything anymore!
(to Gordon)Are you mad?
Finch: One thing is true of all governments. The most reliable records are tax records.

If we can confirm its existence, then it interacts with the physical world. If it interacts with the physical world, we can, theoretically, blow it up.
If you criticize something, but don't offer at least one suggestion for fixing it, then you're just bi**hing and moaning.
"If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?" Scott Adams

To kill in defence of another, this is good. To kill in defence of myself, this is allowed. To kill for the clan, this is necessary. To kill because I am angry, this is wrong. To kill to simply hurt another, this is wicked. To kill in betrayal of the clan, this is sinful.

Perform (Mime). Bard: "Guy's I'm going to do walking in the wind until we win." Group: "Quick kill it!"
This made me think of Robert.

Thread Hijack.
Need a feat for bards that requires Perform (mime) and then allows them to cast without somatic components and replaces their sonic spells with force spells. Then they can actually be in a force cube.
