"I'm going to enslave humanity and force them to service my machines. First, Green Hills, then the universe, then the multiverse, then who knows?! Maybe that'll be enough."

"Eons ago, before the TVA, a variant of myself lived on Earth in the 31st century. He was a scientist and he discovered that there were universes stacked on top of his own. At the same time, other versions of us were learning the same thing. Naturally, they made contact. And for a while, there was peace. Narcissistic, self-congratulatory peace. "I love your shoes." "I love your hair." "Oh, man, nice nose." "Thanks, man." Et cetera. They shared technology and knowledge. Using the best of their universes to improve the others. However... not every version of me was so... so pure of heart. To some of us, new worlds meant only one thing, new lands to be conquered. The peace between realities... [boom] ...erupted into all-out war, each variant fighting to preserve their universe and annihilate the others. This was almost the end, ladies and gentlemen, of everything and everyone [...] this is where we diverge from the dogma. That first variant encountered a creature created from all the tears in reality, capable of consuming time and space itself. A creature... you both know [...] I harnessed the beast's power and began experimenting on it. I weaponized Alioth and I ended... I ended... the Multiversal War. Once I isolated our timeline, all I had to do was manage the flow of time and prevent any further branches. Hence, the TVA. Hence, the Time-Keepers and a highly efficient bureaucracy. Hence, ages and ages of cosmic harmony. Hence... you're welcome. You came to kill the devil, right? Well, guess what? I keep you safe."

"There was a time when Newtopia was really great, but that greatness was stolen from us. Centuries of prosperity came to an end because of me. I was weak for trusting people who say they are my friends and because of that, the music box was stolen from my guard [...] Now that I have the box back, I can finish the work my ancestors started. From this castle, I will not only rule over this world, but all the worlds!"

"Hello, Earth! Congratulations on being conquered. I have good news and bad news. The good news? Your planet is rich in the resources we'll need to conquer more impressive worlds. The bad news? We'll need to destroy your civilization to get those resources. (crowd gasps) Omelet, broken eggs; you get it."
— King Andrias, Amphibia
