“Fire supposed he needed to be there in order to give rousing speeches and lead the charge into the fray, or whatever is was commanders did in wartime. She resented his competence at something so tragic and senseless. She wished he, or somebody, would throw down his sword and say, 'Enough! This is a silly way to decide who's in charge!' And it seemed to her, as the beds in the healing room filled and emptied and filled, that these battles didn't leave much to be in charge of. The kingdom was already broken, and this war was tearing the broken pieces smaller.”
― Kristin Cashore, Fire

“Commanders and historians are the people who discuss wars; I was in the infantry, and most of the time I did not know where I was or what I was doing except that I was obeying orders and trying not to be killed in any of the variety of horrible ways open to me.”
― Robertson Davies, Fifth Business

“Wanaume hujiua kwa sababu ya fedha. Wanawake hujiua kwa sababu ya mapenzi.”

“You maybe the commander, but i am the commander of death. And i say we will meet again”
― The 100

“Wanaume wanaojiua kwa sababu ya mapenzi ni wanawake; wanawake wanaojiua kwa sababu ya fedha ni wanaume.”

“Radia Hosni alikuwa na bahati kuliko watu wote duniani. Frederik Mogens alipofika katika helikopta na kukuta Murphy na Yehuda wakihangaika kuutafuta mwili wa Radia, hakushangazwa na walichomwambia. Kwa sababu alijua nini kilitokea. Radia alikutwa akipumua kwa mbali. Hivyo, Debbie na marubani walimchukua na kumpeleka Mexico City haraka ilivyowezekana. Black Hawk waliyokuwa wakiishangaa ilikuwa ya DEA. Lakini si ile waliyokwenda nayo Oaxaca. Ilikuwa nyingine ya DEA, iliyotumwa na Randall Ortega kuwachukua Vijana wa Tume na kuwapeleka Mexico City haraka ilivyowezekana. Black Hawk waliyokwenda nayo Oaxaca ndiyo iliyomchukua Radia na Debbie na kuwapeleka Altamirano (hospitali ya tume) mjini Mexico City. Mogens angekwenda pia na akina Debbie; lakini alibaki kwa ajili ya kumlinda El Tigre, na mizigo yake, na baadhi ya makamanda wake wachache. El Tigre angeweza kutoroka kama angebaki na polisi peke yao, na Mogens hakutaka kufanya makosa.”

“Watu wanaohatarisha maisha yao kwa kudharau sheria wakati mwingine hawatakiwi kudharauliwa. Ni sawa na mtu aliyepoteza kila kitu katika maisha yake. Wana uwezo wa kufanya chochote. Serikali ya Meksiko ilipokataa kukidhi matakwa ya El Tigre ya kubadili katiba ya nchi â€� kuondoa kipengele cha mkataba wa kubadilishana watuhumiwa na washtakiwa â€� ili akikamatwa asipelekwe Marekani ambako atafungwa na kufia gerezani, El Tigre aliilaani Serikali ya Meksiko. Kujibu mapigo, ya laana ya maluuni, Serikali ya Meksiko ikawakabidhi makamanda 7 wa Kolonia Santita kwa mamlaka za Marekani, na kuongeza juhudi za kumsaka El Tigre mpaka nje ya Amerika ya Kusini na Kaskazini. El Tigre, kuikomoa serikali na kuwalipia kisasi makamanda wote waliouwawa na kufungwa na shirikisho, akamuua Mwanasheria Mkuu wa Serikali (PGR) na maafisa 7 wa Jeshi la Polisi la Nchi (PJF) kulinganisha idadi ya makamanda wake waliopelekwa Marekani â€� halafu 'akapotea', kabisa; baada ya kutangaza vita na Serikali ya Meksiko!”

“Ndege ya Kolonia Santita, Grumman Gulfstream III, tofauti na ndege alizokuwa akitumia Panthera Tigrisi na makompade wake wa karibu, ilifanya kazi kubwa katika mgogoro wa Kolonia Santita na Tume ya Dunia. Dar es Salaam Grumman ilipomchukua kachero Giovanna Garcia wa Kolonia Santita, baada ya ndege hiyo kutumwa na makamanda wa Kolonia Santita wa Copenhagen, ilimpeleka Paris nchini Ufaransa kuhudhuria kikao cha siri cha CS-Paris. Katika kikao hicho yeye na wenzake wakapanga mauaji ya Kamanda John Murphy Ambilikile, kwa kusuka mbinu kamambe za kumteketeza, kabla ndege yake haijafika Copenhagen. Giovanna akashiriki pia kupeleka taarifa za Murphy duniani kote katika matawi yote ya Kolonia Santita, Urusi ikiwemo, ambapo Murphy alitekwa nyara na CS-Moscow. Baada ya 'mauaji' ya Murphy, Grumman iliwapeleka baadhi ya maadui waliohusika na mauaji hayo Mexico City katika makao makuu ya Kolonia Santita; kisha ikarudi Copenhagen kumchukua kiongozi wa CS-Copenhagen, Regner Steiner Valkendorff, na Kachero wa Kolonia Santita Delfina Moore.”

“The two oldest fought in the First World War, the rest battled in the Second. They knew about Korea but not understanding what it was about didn’t give it the respect—the seriousness—Frank thought it deserved. The veterans ranked battles and wars according to loss numbers: three thousand at this place, sixty thousand in the trenches, twelve thousand at another. The more killed, the braver the warriors, not the stupider the commanders.”
