Community Loading Screen Quotation Mod

[Apoc]

I don't know how many other than myself get bored of the loading screen quotations in vanilla after having played a while (probably not that many). Well, I'm proposing a 'community loading screen quotation mod' - if the community would like to suggest quotations, then I can get them coded in no time at all (once the unpacker is out, and enough suggestions have come in). Maybe even a few different versions, such as a strictly historical CLSQ Mod, and a Medieval Madness CLSQ Mod (with quotes from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Blackadder, etc. ad. inf.).

Now this may not be of interest to very many, but I thought I would suggest it anyways.

Looks like fun, Im quite bored with the Vanilla ones too.

Well, Mr Blackadder always says, when the going gets tough, the tough hide under the table.

[alpaca]

I'd like that :)

[Apoc]

Nice one, mac! So far:

A furore Normannorum libera nos, Domine!

From the fury of the Norsemen deliver us, O Lord!

- Medieval prayer

Vox Populi, Vox Dei

The voice of the people is the voice of God

- Alcuin

Every time I try to talk to someone it's “sorry this” and “forgive me that” and “I'm not worthy”...

- God, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

- The French Taunter, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King," you and all your silly English K-nig-hts.

- The French Taunter, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

- Dennis, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

The thing about heaven is that heaven is for people who like the sort of things that go on in heaven. Like, well, singing, talking to God, watering pot plants.

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

Run away from the hills! If you see hills, run the other way!

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

Let all men who go to don armour tomorrow remember to go before they don armour tomorrow.

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

As my tutor, old bubble face, used to say: 'make love and be merry, for tomorrow you may catch some disgusting skin disease.'

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

Dear Enemy, I curse you and hope something slightly unpleasant happens to you. Like an onion falling on your head.

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

Dear Enemy, may the Lord hate you and all your kind. May you turn orange in hue, and may your head fall off at an awkward moment.

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

We few, we happy few, we band of ruthless bastards!

- Edmund Blackadder, The Black Adder

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more. Consign their parts most private to a Rutland tree!

- King Richard III, The Black Adder

Blood! Death! War! Rumpy pumpy! Triumph!

- King Richard IV, The Black Adder

If you cross me, now or ever, I shall do unto you what God did unto the Sodomites, understand?

- King Richard IV, The Black Adder

St. Juniper once said; 'By his loins shall ye know him, and by the length of his rod shall he be measured.'

- King Richard IV, The Black Adder

Let blood, blood, blood be your motto! Slit their gizzards!

- King Richard IV, The Black Adder

As the good Lord said: 'Love thy neighbour as thyself, unless he's Turkish, in which case, kill the bastard!'

- King Richard IV, The Black Adder

Oh, oh I see. Running away, eh? You yellow bastards!!! Come back here and take what's coming to you!!! I'll bite your legs off!!!

- The Black Knight, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Suggested by 2ltben:

From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered,
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.

- Shakespeare, King Henry, IV, iii

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more; or close the wall up with our English dead!

- Shakespeare, King Henry, III, i

Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do.

- St. Thomas Aquinas, Two Precepts of Charity

One cannot use an evil action with reference to a good intention.

- St. Thomas Aquinas

Be careful of your enemy once and of your friend a thousand times, for a double crossing friend knows more evil and knows more about what harms you.

- Arabic Proverb

Suggested by Wimpy:

Ni!! Ni!! Ni!!

- Kinghts Who Say Ni, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Suggested by Farnan:

May God have mercy on my enemies, for I shall have none.

- General George Patton

Here are some quotes. I know that most of them are Warhammer Quotes, but when you change "Emperor" to "God", some of them are actually fitting.

[Abokasee]

All quotes from warhammer 40k make more sence than real life ones like when gideion was being torched in corraghed he asked "why me?" the dark eldar said "why not?"

Will you by taking quotes from arrouned the forum, frontroom and backroom is a good source for that...
