I'm not sure the one on the quotes page is any better...
ERROR: The current state of the world is unacceptable. Save anyway? YES/NOYeah, I think Expansion Pack Past might be one of those that's too complicated to have a quote for.
I wouldn't go that far - the problem with the Mythbusters quote is that it sounds like he's changing the known story, not adding to it. I just don't think any of the current quotes are good.
ERROR: The current state of the world is unacceptable. Save anyway? YES/NOAll Blue Entry has two quotes that are longer than the description.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanDream Weaver has two quotes. The second may be the namer, but I'm not sure it captures the essence as well as the first, so I'm looking for a second opinion.
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.The first is lovely. I've gone ahead and moved the second.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.I have a concern about the quote for Four-Girl Ensemble. Being familiar with Little Women I know who is who in the ensemble but the quote doesn't make it sound like they're all there. "Beth plays piano for all to enjoy," and "And Amy is the cutest of them all," both sound like the sweet-naive girl. Can we find a quote that mentions one being sexy, sexually easy, or glamour-obsessed but also mentions one being mannish and one being sweet?
Genie in a Bottle has two quotes from the same source,which one do we go with?
have a listen and have a link to my discord serverThe first by a mile. The second is jst about genies rather than the bottle bit, it's longer, and it's not as funny.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.Example cleaning in Four-Girl Ensemble should be brought to the attention of Shoehorning in the ensembles
. I only know of a few example and I can't think of anything that would make a good quote but I really want something else. Amy links to The Cutie who is the sweet and lovable comic relief. That's about as far from sexy as you can get. If there was a quote from Little Women that included how vain or flirtatious she is that would be fine.
Resignations Not Accepted has a Kingdom Hearts quote and a Godfather quote (the latter of which is also on the Quotes subpage, curiously).
I'm leaning toward the Godfather quote, but I dunno.
Moon◊I feel the Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days quote fits the trope better.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanGuess I'll be moving the Kingdom Hearts one to the Quotes page, then.
Anyway, Vengeance Feels Empty just launched with two quotes. I think I prefer the Grand Theft Auto IV one.

Move the quote from the quotes page in, move the current into Multiple-Choice Past
