-> ''"You're weak, [[ComicBook/Superman son of El]]. The fact that you possess a sense of morality and we do not gives us an evolutionary advantage. And if history has proven anything, it is that evolution always wins!"''

->''"If you're strong, you live; if you're weak, you die."''

->''"Are you done bitching? You could never shut down the [[MurderInc Association]]. Fighting to be the best is human nature. It's evolution. Who are we to try and stand in its way?"''

->''"Let's bring it pig! Where are you pig? I want your eyes, pig. I want them. You want to go to hell? Huh? Huh, pig? You want to go to hell with me? It doesn't matter, does it? We are the hunters. We kill the weak so the strong survive. You can't stop the New World. Your filthy society will never get rid of people like us. It's breeding them! WE ARE THE FUTURE!"''

->'''Sylvester''': Don’t get me wrong, I’m not proposing something where we’re all supposed to act like animals, or that we should model ourselves after them. I’m saying humans are humans, and being human means struggling. In the course of those struggles, we form the strongest bonds. Could be us and a life and death struggle with a pair of people who want to stalk and kill us, or two people working in a tea shop in a town that’s gotten embroiled in a civil war.
->'''Jamie''': Seems like your worldview is a little bit, uh, conveniently ''you?''
->'''Sylvester''': Of course it is. I’m ''[[TykeBomb eleven.]]'' Ish.

-> ''"Compassion? Empathy towards species outside your own? Ethics? Morals? Laws? Those are things CIVILIZATION invented! You ponies brought them into being when you decided 'I will care about more than whether I live and reproduce.' You decided some things were greater then your own life! You decided some things were greater than passing off GENETIC legacies. You learned what love was when Celestia taught you how to care about something other than your DNA. The natural world? When did you last see parasprites and cockatrices have political debates? Nature's balance doesn't TOLERATE kindness Flutter-girl. The sick and hurt you care for? You go AGAINST nature's will when you step in and tend to them and heal them. They're SUPPOSED to die to make way for the superior survivors. But because you have an empathy sphere larger than the sun, you step in, you CHEAT Fluttershy, you break Darwin The Dragon's law and allow the 'weak' to thrive not making room for the 'strong.' Kindness goes AGAINST nature Fluttershy! You're as unnatural as me."''

“Because their hope wasn’t strong enough. It was so despair inducing to watch such wonderful symbols of hope succumb to her . . . but the end made it all worth it! Their sacrifice –”\\

->''"The first thing you got to understand is that all this [[NewAgeRetroHippie uplift and flipflop and settlement-work and recreation]] is nothing in God’s world but [[RedScare the entering wedge for socialism]]. The sooner a man learns he isn’t going to be coddled, and he needn’t expect a lot of free grub and, uh, all these free classes and flipflop and doodads for his kids unless he earns ‘em, why, the sooner he’ll get on the job and produce--produce--produce! That’s what the country needs, and not all this fancy stuff that just enfeebles the will-power of the working man and gives his kids a lot of notions above their class."''

->''"[[AboveGoodAndEvil There is no good and evil]], only [[DespotismJustifiesTheMeans power]] and those too weak to seek it"''

->''"I refuse to believe that so modern and civilized a young man as you seem to be [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids harbors romantic ideas]] about the value of human life... Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if needs be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong. Why should I not use my gift? If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the scum of the earth: sailors from tramp ships--lascars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels--a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them."''

->''"The law of the jungle says ‘Be strong or be dominated.’ The law of our world says ‘Be strong or be killed.’"''

->'''Ultron''': ''There were more than a dozen extinction level events before even'' the dinosaurs ''got theirs! When the Earth starts to settle, God throws a stone at it. [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar And believe me. He's winding up.]] We have to evolve. There's no room for...the weak.''
->'''Pietro Maximoff''': ''And who decides who's weak?''
->'''Ultron''': ''Life. Life always decides.''

->'''The Doctor:''' He doesn't have to outrun the lion, only his friend. Then the lion catches up with his friend and eats him. The strong survive, the weak are killed. The law of the jungle.\\

Just to keep itself alive\\''

->''"Come on, ''you've'' read Charles Darwin. It's called Survival of the Fittest. We're just helping to [[WouldBeRudeToSayGenocide speed it to its logical conclusion.]]"''

->'''Neera''': Kron, we've never gone this far without water. If we keep going like this, we'll lose half the herd.\\
'''Kron''': Then we'll save the half that deserves to live.

-->--''The Antichrist'' by '''Creator/FriedrichNietzsche'''

->''"My grandmother had an island. Nothing to boast of -- you could walk along it in an hour -- but still, it was a paradise for us. One summer, we went for a visit and discovered the place had been infested with rats. They'd come on a fishing boat and gorged themselves on coconut. So how do you [[ThePurge get rats off an island]], hmm? My grandmother showed me. We buried an oil drum and hinged the lid. Then we wired coconut to the lid as bait, and the rats would come for the coconut, and thum-thum-thum-thum-thum, they would fall into the drum. And after a month, you've trapped all the rats. But what do you do then? Throw the drum [[KillItWithWater into the ocean]]? [[KillItWithFire Burn it]]? No. You just leave it. And they begin to get hungry, and one by one... ''(smacks lips repeatedly)'' ...they start [[ImAHumanitarian eating each other]] until there are only two left. Two survivors. And then what? Do you kill them? No. You take them and release them into the trees. But now they don't eat coconut anymore. ''[[BeingTorturedMakesYouEvil Now they only eat rat.]]'' You have changed their nature. [[RuleOfSymbolism The two survivors]]. This is what she made us."''

->''"Look, it's terrible, I know, but weakness really, really bugs me, to the point that if there is a wounded bird on the sidewalk, I look at it and I go: 'I think I'll just kick it.'"''
