‘If a man gathers ten thousand suns in his hands… If a man seeds a hundred thousand worlds with his sons and daughters, granting them custody of the galaxy itself… If a man guides a million vessels between the infinite stars with a mere thought… Then I pray you tell me, if you are able, how such a man is anything less than a god.’ — Lorgar Aurelian, Primarch of the Word Bearers
"There is a very good reason why so many of the galaxy's cultures and societies are afraid of the dark." - Inquisitor Bastalek Grimm (Dont know anyone who is afraid of mandrakes though)
Are we the last ones left alive? Are we? Someone, anyone, please? Are we? Is there anybody out there? Are we the last ones left alive? -Beltayn, via vox; heard by Beltayn, who had never said these words
The past never lets us go. It is persistent and unalterable. The future, however, is aloof, a stranger. It stands with its back to us, mute and private. Refusing to communicate what it knows or what it sees.
Line up in a straight line in front of me while I take a picture of each of you with this camera that looks just like a Lascannon!
A brilliant quote, that one. My own personal favourites not picked up so far... "To be a man in such times is to be one among untold billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding. For in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war." - from the Black Library and GW scene setting for 40k "Unlike you, whelp, I once walked the same ground as your idol. I breathed the same air as him. And I tell you this, without lie or artifice. He never wanted to become what you have made him! He did not wish to be your god-thing. He abhorred such ideals! The slavery of your crippled, blind Imperium would sicken him, if he had eyes to see it." - Fabius Bile, speaking of the Emperor "The Imperium is a weak old man, ready and waiting to be broken apart by his vengeful sons" - Huron Blackheart "I murdered thousands for the Emperor, and he gave me nothing except his damning silence. Now his lapdogs yap for every life I take, while the gods promise me the galaxy" - Svane Vulfbad, former Wolf Lord of the Space Wolves "We fight the long war, not through vain notions of duty and honour, but through a far purer purpose: hatred. At the height of our glory we were betrayed and cast out by our kin. Guilliman, Dorn, Sanguinius - these are names I curse. Horus, Perturabo, Angron - these are names I revere, names I would follow to the very end. It is this hatred that has sustained me through the long millennia. I tend it with bitterness. I nuture it with the deaths of my former brothers. For I know that when the end is upon us and Horus is returned, then the false emperor shall be cast down from his sepulchral golden throne, and we shall take our rightful place at the side of Horus, the true Emperor of Mankind" - Ferrous Ironclaw, Iron Warriors Warsmith Hmm...might be a bit of a giveaway that I'm a chaos player, huh?
This just... this just... I cant watch anything related to khorne now without hearing an anime girl in my head going this. Thanks a lot! The girl is even dressed in red!
I posted it first somewhere but can't remember which thread? Also she's adorable so you really should be thanking him
