"Edward Longshanks has conquered Wales, what is there to say he won't turn toward us as well?" King Alexander III of Scotland.
The prophetic words of King Alexander III of Scotland, spoken on his deathbed as news reached him of Edward I of England's conquest of Wales in the autumn of 1283. Alexander III died mere hours later, succeeded by his son who ruled as Alexander IV. The younger Alexander went on to die defending Scotland from Edward's invasion in 1298 at the Battle of Galashiels, a Pyrrhic victory for the English which repulsed them from Scotland for decades. The battle has since been immortalised by numerous songs, poems, and paintings.

"I know it is unusual for a white man to join the Black Panthers, but i really enjoy violence and i also want to make the world a better place."

The first White Black Panther, George Lincoln Rockwell, in a 1966 letter to group founder Bobby Seale. Rockwell attempted to focus the Black Panthers on providing an alternative to racial integration, but eventually, his private racist views caused conflict with other members of the organization, culminating in his 1970 assassination by Malik el-Shabazz.

Only Abzug could go to Germania.
Astute observation by the Jerusalem Times. Israel's Ella Abzurg was the only foreign journalist allowed to interview Fuhrer Rudolf Hitler of Deutschland in his private palace of Germania. It was later leaked by staff that the Fuhrer and Miss Abzurg had a romantic liaison during her visit, a revelation that forced Rudolf to abdicate and led to Abzurg's firing. The young journalist took her own life three months later.

"We'll have you beady-eyed Anglos eating out of our hands soon enough." - Pierre Trudeau

President Jimmy Carter? That would be apocalyptic!-Richard Nixon.

Comedian Richard Nixon announcing his last-minute bid to challenge Jimmy Carter of Georgia for the Democratic nomination in 1976. Documents concerning Nixon’s illegal efforts to prevent Carter’s presidency were famously found at the “water-gate” of Nixon’s campaign office. The child who found the files found them after being told to “wait here, Kate” while her mother (a Carter staffer) met with a Nixon staffer. The scandal became known as the “water-gate” scandal due to the child’s mispronounciation of what her mother said in an interview with CBS.

“Emperor Burr wishes to court your majesty, Princess Victoria”

The quote of an unnamed soldier living in the USA who helped win the Chinese Civil War. However, the mistreatment of the forces along with the general incompetency of the Kai-She administration meant the USA would end up having to do much of the grunt work in doing so, eventually backing up the Chinese Democratic League as the new power.

"We'll all miss the canals when we look at the asphalt roads that replaced them, and the skyscrapers over here are barely less ugly than the half-dozen cruise ships that used to be over there... but this was more than a land reclamation. It was a reclamation of Venice itself as a livable city."

"Here ye, I declare Lee Harvey Oswald's ghost busted by the Ghostbusters! ...and guilty. Whatever."
 
"Here ye, I declare Lee Harvey Oswald's ghost busted by the Ghostbusters! ...and guilty. Whatever."

A line from the only known existing draft of the script of Ghostbusters 3. Allegedly, the line was intended to be stated after a busting at a theater by Winston Zedmore, though Ernie Hudson dispelled that rumor out of hand in an interview on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. While Ghostbusters 3 did show much promise after Bill Murray finally came to the production team (stating that the wounds of Ghostbusters 2 had been healed), production ended up abandoned outright with the murder of Dan Aykroyd. Unfinished scenes featuring the team have since been released to the public, and his likeness and voice has been approved for use in an upcoming video game sequel, so fans still have some chance of closure from the franchise.
