Andrzej Sapkowski
- The Last Wish
Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I'm not a pious hermit, I haven't done only good in my life. But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.

- WoW: Cataclysm cinematic
Pain. Agony. My hatred burns through the cavernous deeps. The world heaves with my torment. Its wretched kingdoms quake beneath my rage. But at last the whole of Azeroth will break. And all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings!
King Terenas Menethil II
- Wrath of the Lich King cinematic
My son, the day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name... Arthas. My child, I watched with pride as you grew into a weapon of righteousness. Remember, our line always ruled with wisdom and strength, and I know you will show restraint when exercising your great power, but the truest victory, my son, is stirring the hearts of your people. I tell you this, for when my days have come to an end, you shall be king.

- Destruction of Dalaran
Let this scar signify the first blow against the mortal world. From this seal shall arise the doom of men, who, in their arrogance, sought to wield our fire as their own. Blindly they build their kingdoms upon stolen knowledge and conceit. Now they shall be consumed by the very flame they sought to control. Let the echoes of doom resound across this wretched world, that all who live may hear them and despair.

- Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
The sands of time have run out, Son of Durotan. The cries of war echo upon the wind. The remnants of the past scar the land, which is besieged once again by conflict. Heroes arise to challenge fate, and lead their brethren into battle! As mortal armies rush blindly towards their doom, the Burning Shadow comes to consume us all!
