Quotes 

• Soldier at The Alamo : Anyone willing to stay and fight, step across this line. Anyone who doesn't stay... well, we won't think you're a coward or a deserter or a chicken or anything like that. On the other hand, we won't be building any monuments to you, either, because after all you did sorta chicken out like a coward or a deserter or something.

• Baudelaire : Oh, sweet angel of death, kiss me on the cheek whilst your blade of deathly death doth deaden me...
