I have told everyone i have known, narcotics is a dirty business. I might be a criminal but i never sold drugs in my country and neither will you

Al Capone to Arnold Rothstein in 1928. The former, while eager to run booze, opposed narcotics. This led to one of the most brutal gang wars in American history. That ended with the bombing of the Waldorf Astoria in 1929, that killed Rothstein.

The events led to the repeal of the Drug War under President LaGuardia in 1933.

You think you're a mighty warrior. Your not. You're an animal, a beast, a sadist who causes pain. The only loyalty you have is to your sick whims.

Comment by a film critic on the film No Comfort. One of the most infamous examples of found journals, written by the ill-fated explorer Ernest Shackleton, during his doomed exploration of Antarctica. The expedition failed, and Shackleton and his crew perished due to starvation and hypothermia.

His journal, found in 1935, was published by Shackleton's heirs and adapted for a movie in 1987.

They question my loyalty to our nation. I say my loyalty to one group: humanity. That is who I fight for. Not for the wealth of a few, but for the millions who suffer.

Spoken by colonial administrator turned communist dictator Ian Smith, whose unilateral declaration from the British Empire brought about swift condemnation from the rest of the Anglosphere.

"Sadly, our arranged marriage to Vienna is the only bulwark against Germany's relentless lust for land."

Louis XVI's comment to his ministers when they tried to talk him out of marrying Maria Antonia, the Austrian Emperor's youngest and favourite sister. The French distrusted the Austrians and were pushing for Louis to strengthen the centuries old 'Auld Alliance' and marry the younger daughter of the monarchs of Albion, Arabella Howard-Stewart, Duchess of Gloucester and Ross, whom Louis had known since childhood and always liked - though he hadn't seen her in five years, when her parents had returned to Albion after being restored to their thrones by a successful coup against Parliamentary rebels.

"Am I no longer beautiful? Is that it? Is that why my husband found so much more pleasure in his harlot's bed than in mine?"

"Fall of East Asia, North America and Australia to Anarchism was unfortunate. However It was worth liberating the Caribbean and South America from American and Chinese tyranny. Their Republicanism was not truly democratic as our Liberal Republicanism and Constitutional Monarchy is. European Confederation and our allies have finally won in the long struggle against Counter-Revolution."

The Experiment was the continuation of the "Peculiar Institution" of Slavery. The above was said by southerners against secession--because the United States of America would go down and crush them. These words proved to be prophetic.

Sadly, every country and their leaders seems to have forgotten the votes and speeches, and now only understands iron and blood.

New York Senator Franklin Roosevelt, lamenting growth of Fascism throughout the 1930s. Roosevelt became a leading member of the Internationalist wing of the Democratic Party, and would be a leading figure in the Great Atlantic War.


"I'd rather live under an imbecile President than a Great King. True freedom is bigger than the men at the top."

Andrew Jackson was a federalising man, and some called him a dictate. He often said that it was his duty to protect the states from themselves and the union from them. A detractor once called out 'all hail King Andrew The First of House Jackson!'. The above was his response. He never did anything truly unconstitutional, and refrained from following upon the Indian Removal Acts he himself had proposed. this earned him a spot as a great presidents to later americans, who after the civil war, had a keen interest in a strong federal government.

A failed attempt at humour by a drunk (then) Prince Louis in an interview with some members of the press who had ambushed him during a vacation to London. In his youth the prince was quite gaff prone, and many were glad that he was third in line for succession, however fate would have it that he (as King of Spain) would save France from German occupation.

A line for the four-part 2012 documentary Let's Stop Talking Falsely (paraphrased from a Bob Dylan Song The Watchtower), about the spread of propaganda during the Cold War and into the Paratomic Age, starting with the Nuking of Varadero. The line refers to how they all in some way criticised president Charles Lindbergh's postwar policies even beyond death with his infamous Purple Cabal that last top the early 1970's. Asinov and Salinger's writings were also notable for launching certain resistance movements towards it all.

"There was this artist during the renaissance, Michelangelo. He was once asked how he creates his sculptures. He answered: “simple, I take a stone and remove everything unnecessary”. Understand? Beauty is when there is nothing unnecessary. Nothing out of place. And at war there is only life... and death. And nothing unnecessary. War is beautiful"
