Do we have some quote pages here, quotes regarding the medieval times or such? Some quotes are really cool like:

"I speak Spanish to God, Italian to Women, French to Men, and German to my Horse." - Charles V

Maybe we can share some of the quotes we like best, and have a compilation.

Here are some:

"And, at the last-GOD'S NIPPLES! Who drank the rest of my ale?"

"You wanna fight, eh? You and what army?"

With Venice "Men, let's get this done quickly, I don't want to be at this all day. I have other things in mind for my evening : a bottle of wine and a wench, f'r'instance !"

an HRE one went all zealot/preacher on me : "I thought I had died, and went to hell for my sins, as I see nothing but the hideous grins of demons everywhere. Gott sei dank ! It's only the enemy !"

Click on a Sicilian army when your playing another faction , and sometimes they"ll say "You talking to me ?!" ala Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver .

My faction Heir was classed as "completely insane" or somesuch... in the pre-battle speech he announced ;

"and as to my recent madness, I can assure you it was only a passing whim, ~I have talked it over with my horse, and he is of the opinion I have not been getting enough rest, after the battle I think I shall follow his advice..."

One of the Scottish armies responded like this when I clicked on them:
"I'm gonna rip off your head and spit down your neck."

"They say those Milanese are good accountants. This will help them, when they count their dead."

At another fight against Milanese troops my general yelled: "I want them dead, DEAD, DEEEEAAAAAAAAD, DEAD like a scot's soul". I'm playing the English as you might have guessed ;-).

"...our dead enemies will be worth looting. Their pockets are always full of money. I don´t belive they´ll leave it at home with their wives"

Byzantine general referring to the Milanese as "...goat fondling arse monkies".

An English general about Welsh rebels : "Well, these lads are either sheep, or Frenchmen !"

A Polish one : "You know, it will be an act of christian virtue to rid this village of so many of its idiots !"

English general speaking of the French:

"Satan must be missing some pimples on his a$$."

"they say these french men are better lovers then fighters. i ndeed this is true, ask any farm animal" lol

"The enemy would only stand a chance if my mother-in-law was with them... what if she is?!? If she is, we're all doomed!!!

When playing as the Milanese I kept getting one about the Portugese.

"they smell like fish and will acknowledge our domination. Why? Because they are all fisherman!"

playing as england with a "dislikes scots" trait; (heard awhile ago, may get slightly wrong)

"...but we do them a kindness if we kill them, for then they can escape for their shrill loathsome wives! who are better suited to gutting fish then pleasing men!"

"...our dead enemies will be worth looting. Their pockets are always full of money. I don´t belive they´ll leave it at home with their wives" He talking about Milanese

Just for Lol

Nice speeches, I did'nt even know some of them were in the game. I always had generals that say they get the first pick on the women or something like that.

They're general speeches. The speeches are influenced by certain traits as well.

It's on one of the loading screens, "I am the king of Rome, and above Grammar!"
Forget who says it now.

"Cry havoc, and let loose the dogs of war!"-Shakspeare (i believe)
i believe this one is from Rome, but it just sounds totally badass

and also, "If you want peace, prepare for war." dont know who says this tho.

One quote from the strategy map...

~I have tried whipping them Sire, but the men are spent~

Dont know why i like it so much

"It is more honourable to be raised to a throne than to be born to one. Fortune bestows one, merit obtains the other." - Petrarch

@Renco: I think it was some King from HRE.

My Russian king was facing some rrebels behind a stone wall and said
"Wait here my fellows while i go and kick down their walls! Do not worry, they're all sodomites so they wont fight back!
