Dow had some of the best lines. I never knew about 40K until I played DoW, now I have a library of ♥♥♥♥ tons of books from Gaunts Ghosts to HH. I love the fiction. Then DoW2 came along and destroyed that whole gothic feeling and traded it all in for wack-a-mole gameplay.

I remember back in the day when DoW 2 was mentioned, hope was the first step on the road to disappointment. Now, my face is my shield.

"The Emperor protects... and dumps on us from a great height"
"Does the God-Emperor sit much?"

[Lonefalcon]

between "Let them hide in their fortress my crew can use the target practice" and "follow me sons of russ this night our enemies shall feel the fangs of the wolf"

Seriously that was some GREAT voice acting back then, where were the oscars? Love to see a return to that style, hmmm maybe it was 3DO Space Hulk but that had great voice acting too, very intense very dramatic yet eloquent.

"If my time in the Black Library taught me anything it was - rather controversially - that Chaos is already very much part of us. It deals in the currency of mortal souls and feeds off states and emotions that are in essence natural. Without us there would be no Chaos. Good and evil? Right and wrong? These are binary oppositions that the inhabitants of this galaxy use to comfort and define themselves. I'm afraid much of the God-Emperor's work is done in the grey area in between."

I think that more than few people wanted Inquisitor Bronislaw dead after this speech of "heresy"

Nothing new about that. He was a Thorian, who are researching whatever they can to possibly "resurrect" the Emperor. Thorians believe that the Emperor's spirit could be transfered into a new host, but lack the means to offer a strong enough host at this point.

Hence Czevak researches Eldar technology due to the way they keep souls bound to stones and machines, and earned the elder race's respect. He tried to get behind the "technology" of the Avatar of Khaine, but due to having so many enemies in the Inquisition and even his own Ordo, a Deathwatch Killteam prevented him from proceeding. Luckily for him, he was rescued by a Harlequin troupe, who then invited him to spend his remaining days (he was 400+ years old and dependent on tech to stay alive) in the famed Black Library, to possibly find his answers.

He was on the run pretty much all the time afterwards, getting captured by Ahriman of the Thousand Sons and what not. The man has his enemies cut out for him :)

[Rumble Fish]

He who sees his own doom can better avoid it. He who sees the doom of others can better deliver it.

[iFrame]

All power demands sacrifice... and pain. The universe rewards those willing to spill their life's blood for the promise of power.

i cant just list one so

Librarian:

- hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

-an open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded

"Victory needs no explanation, defeat allows none."
"Knowledge is power, hide it well."
"Sanity is for the weak!"

"MAIM KILL BURN!" - World Eaters <3

"If a man dedicates his life to good deeds and the welfare of others, he will die unthanked and unremembered. If he exercises his genius bringing misery and death to billions, his name will echo down through the millennia for a hundred lifetimes. Infamy is always more preferable to ignominy." - Fabius Bile

"Horus was weak. Horus was a fool. He had the whole galaxy within his grasp and he let it slip away." - Abaddon

Yeah I'm a bit of a heretic ;). I like SM and CSM though. It's just CSM have more memorable quotes than "The Emperor protects."

The Eldar also have awesome quotes.

"What do Humans know of our pain? We have sung songs of lament since before your ancestors crawled on their bellies from the sea." - Eldrad Ulthran of craftworld Ulthwé

And of course Dark Eldar!

"I'm the thing that goes "bump" in the night..."

"You? Why should I care? You, a pitiful child asked me for mercy? I am older than you could possibly imagine, I have watched entire worlds burn beneath my feet, I have seen things which defy sanity itself, and you ask me for mercy? You mon-keigh disgust me. "

both by Archon Kh'err'akh'an

Path of the Eldar series of novels by Gav Thorpe had excellent writings about the Eldar. Some great quotes/lore at the start of each chapter.
