The Load Screen Celtic Quotes

You know, somebody in the thread 4 days previous said that most of these quotes came from "The Gaelic White Guide". However, I can't find anything on such a text.

Oh well, these are really cool quotes, regardless. My favorite of all of them.

Riadach made a topic here that pretty thoroughly discredited the quotes and their sources. But then the topic degenerated into quibbling and nothing was resolved. I brought it up again a few days ago and i was told it was being looked in to.

Anyways, no matter what you think of Ranika, it's pretty inappropriate to have unverified and unreviewed sources amongst so much real research. Especially when they are so obviously fake. The quotes themselves are so complicated and modern in their vernacular. Nobody noticed that?

I'm sure they'll be gone in EB2.

Complicated and modern vernacular is no proof of anything, that's a product of translation but it is true that the sources for the quotes cannot be verified.

You might want to take a look at the discussion of a very famous quote that was removed from the last version.

Alea iacta est.

I'm sorry; I searched the forums but the previous discusssions either didn't have obvious titles or were too far back.

I'm aware that the EB team are discussing this matter now, and I understand that there are delicate matters involved. However, I have been a student of things Celtic for quite a lot of years and if anyone from the team would like to send me a private message on the matter, I will share my conclusions on what has been contributed.
