Quintus quotes from Fallout

If our rebellion is righteous, our way will be paved for us.

[Maximus walks before Quintus on his throne with Lee taking Siggi Wilzig's head to Quintus] You’re wearing the Knight’s red. Where’s your Knight?

He’s dead.

This is not the first time a Brother in your company has fallen into misfortune... is it? [A cleric uses radio counter to scan Siggi Wilzig's head] I fear you lied then.

No artifact, m’lord.

Just as you lie now.

[Repeatedly] Wait! [Groans as knights force Maximus to knees]

Please, listen to me! I can get you the real head.

Confess.

Don’t kill me and I can lead you to it! [Pants and groans] I can help you!

Please, m’lord. My injury was my own doing. Not his.

Please... please, I know where the head is!

For the sake of the Brotherhood, please listen to him! [Maximus pants heavily]

Such a display of loyalty. Don’t see that much anymore. [Speaking to Maximus in private] You think you’re the first squire who coveted his Knight’s armor? How did Titus die?

He died running.

[Sighs softly] The Brotherhood has lost its way. We once ruled the Wasteland... and yet power is taken, not given. A lesson you seem to have learned. So, if what you say is true, and you can lead us to the relic, then together, you and I, we will take power. And with it... we will start a new Brotherhood. With me as its head, and the likes of you as its sword. Your entire life, you’ve been looking for a home. Build one with me.

I found you in the ruins of Shady Sands. Kill me, and the world will continue just as you see it. A world of anarchy, of horror. A world I would bring order to. Order! Cruel and necessary to rebuild civilization. To change this world! Kill me and that change will never come. Tell me, Maximus, what world will you build will you lead? Tell me, what will you do when your people are starving?

I don't want that.

Then what is your great plan?

There was no plan! I don't have a plan! You have plans! But out there, you can't! I don't choose the things I have to do! They just keep happening!
