This world around you, the people you meet—they're a little thin, right? Cardboard and drywall. Cheap theater. Come on, try it out! Say: “I am more real than this.” Feels good, doesn't it? “I am the only real person here.” Isn't it like their insults and their bullets just went a little... soft? I came to find you, only you, because you're special. You're from somewhere real. And together we can burn our way back there.\\ [[WhamLine Can't we, o player mine?]]

->Don’t look so surprised, Commander! And... don’t look around for [[ComputerVoice your EVA,]] it can’t help you now... Well. What shall we talk about? Your "powerful" GDI forces have been emasculated... and you yourself are a killer of children! Of course, it’s not true. But the world only believes what the media tells them to believe. (laughing) And I tell the media what to believe; it’s really quite simple. [beep] Oh. There’s your little pet. But now that I know where you live, Commander, it’s only a matter of time. Were I in your shoes, I would spend my last earthly hours... enjoying the world! Of course, if you wish, you can spend them fighting for a lost cause. But you know that you’ve lost.

->For all you know, a witch might be living next door to you right now. Or she might be the woman with the bright eyes who sat opposite you on the bus this morning. She might be the lady with the dazzling smile who offered you a sweet from a white paper bag in the street before lunch. She might even — and this will make you jump — she might even be your lovely school-teacher who is reading these words to you at this very moment. Look at that teacher. Perhaps she is smiling at the absurdity of such a suggestion. Don't let that put you off. It could be part of her cleverness. I am not, of course, telling you for one second that your teacher actually is a witch. All I am saying is that she ''might'' be one. It is most unlikely. But — and here comes the big "but" — ''it is not impossible''.
