"You’ve been put in a position where your only option is to cast a domain. By using Unlimited Void, you could kill us curses, but you’d also kill every person here! You could save everyone outside of the domain, plus everyone not down here in the fifth-floor basement! But you can’t! You won’t! Your concept of sacrifice is limited to the humans who are killed by curses, not ones killed by Satoru Gojo!"

Good!Krieg: If you ever kill an innocent person, I will destroy us.
Krieg: Shut UP!
Good!Krieg: No. That's the deal. You can kill as many of the deserving as you like, but the second your axe touches the flesh of an innocent, I'll end this. All of it. A razor to the veins, just like that fugitive we tried to grab on Hera, remember?
Krieg: Nnnnngh, get out of my head!
Good!Krieg: ...I'll take that as a "yes."

—Krieg, idle quote, Borderlands 2

"The slightest whiff of anything and you move in. Shake 'em down, crush 'em before they even start to grow, like an alley fight. And that's what this is, an alley fight. So kick him in the goolies first. Do unto others now what they're still thinking about. Oh, there'll be squeals. And once in a while, you'll turn a law-abiding citizen into an authority-hating anarchist. There'll be squeals and letters to MPs. But that's the price they have, and we have, to pay to keep this island clean and smelling—even if ever so faintly—of roses and lavender. But you make a mistake like that and I'll back you to the hilt. But make the other kind of mistake, the kind that ends up with innocent people bleeding all over the High Street, and the only backing you'll get is with my boot and right out of this organisation."

— George Cowley, The Professionals, "Old Dog With New Tricks"
