Title says it all. You can get it from anywhere in the 40k universe. Here's one of mine, from the Ork Codex.

"Travellin' through space is boring. Well, boring unless da hulk yer on is full of dem gene-sneakers, or a base forr da Chaos ladz wiv da spikes, or already has Boyz on it. Or if humie lootas come callin', that's always good fer a bit a sport. Or unless yer have a mutiny or two to pass da time,strange fings start happenin', which dey usually do when yer out in da Warp. One time, we had some bloody great ugly fing come straight out of Weird Lugwort's 'ed! It butchered half da lads, that was pretty entertainin'. Come ter fink of it, space is a pretty good larf. And that's before yer find yerself a nice new world ta crush" -Bigmaw, Ork Runtherd.

What about you?

Unimaginably ancient xenos artefact somewhere on the planet, hive fleet poised above our heads, hidden 'stealer broods making an early start....and now a bloody Chaos cult crawling out of the woodwork just in case we were bored. Welcome to my world, Ciaphas."
Inquisitor Amberley Vail, Ordo Xenos

I liked it so much I made it a sig..........

Just like you Morden

I can't remember any from books off the top of my head, but I am a big fan of a number of Dawn of War quotes. Number one would probably be "IT IS A GOOD PAIN!" followed closely by "Show me what passes for fury among your misbegotten kind!" with honorable mention for "Quit this life, Eldar!"

'I am your evils returned to you. I am the justice your victims cry out for. The protector of the weak. The light in the darkness. The Hand of Asuryan. I am the Avenger.
-Asurmen, Phoenix Lord of the Dire Avengers.

'Does Sigismund deserve a slap, Captain Torgaddon? Probably. In the spirit of comradeship, let him be. He bruises easily.’ - Rogal Dorn

'' SHATTER THEIR SKY '' -some really enthusiastic basilisk crewman

There is no time to be lost! Battle-brothers!

Space Marines, today, the enemy is at our door! We know our duty and we will do it! We fight for our honor, as Blood Ravens, as Space Marines, and we fight in the name of the Emperor!

If we die this day, we die in glory. We die heroes deaths! But we shall not die, no, it is the enemy who will taste death and defeat! As You Know, most of our battle-brothers are stationed in space, prepared to deep strike!

Our perimeter has been prepared in the event that our enemy should be so bold and so foolish! We have placed numerous beacons, allowing for multiple, simultaneous and devastating defensive deep strikes.

The Codex Astartes names this maneuver Steel Rain. We will descend upon the foe, we will overwhelm them, we will leave none alive! Meanwhile, our ground forces will ensure the full defense of our headquarters...

We are the Space Marines! We are the Emperor's fury!
-Force Commander Indrick Boreale of the Blood Ravens

"We have arrived, and it is now that we perform our charge.
In fealty to the God-Emperor (our undying Lord) and by the grace of the Golden Throne, I declare Exterminatus upon the Imperial world of Typhon Primaris.
I hereby sign the death warrant of an entire world and consign a million souls to oblivion.
May Imperial Justice account in all balance.
The Emperor Protects."

- Typhon Exterminatus Ordo Malleus Inquisitor

"IT IS THE BEEEEIIIIIINNNBBLLLLAAADE!!!"


~Captain Apollo Diomedes

Everything from Galaxy in Flames.

Our names may be forgotten, and our bones crumble to dust, but our deaths will echo through the millennia to come. - Saul Tarvitz

Ehrlen to Tarvitz: -This isn't your fight, get out of here! -Emperor's Children never run! -They do from this!

There are some cool quotes in IA13.

"This day, we dedicate our lives to the masters. This day, wededicate our deaths to their cause. This day, we dedicate our souls to the eternal glory of the abyss. This day, we rise!" -Mariak Soth, Invokator of the Cult of the Exquisite Corpse

"True faith is closing your eyes and following the call to your soul down to the bottom of life where mortality becomes irrelevant, and existence and non-existence have merged into chaos." -Apostate Cardinal Xaphan, the Arch-heretic of Vraks

For some reason the second one reminds me of Heath Ledger as the Joker.

"Give me a thousand Gaurdsmen, if all else fails give me 10 Space Marines"

“Though my guards may sleep and my ships may lay at anchor, our foes know full well that the big guns never tire.” — Lufgt Huron, the Tyrant of Badab, 909.M41.

Is Dawn of War accepted? Because I love METAL BAWKES.

But in all serious, "There is yet hope" - Sanguinor.

My favourite something along the lines of "space marines?set ya gitfindas to pansys"some ork

Give me a hundred Space Marines. Or failing that give me a thousand other troops

That's the quote you're looking for

"Maximmion Voss, Master of Doors... Imagine the iconography."
-Seifer Zeed, Raven Guard of Talon Alpha.

I have always loved the little quote blurbs that used to appear all over the place in older rule books and codexes bu the one that still sticks with me the most is:

"Be strong in your ignorance!"

I also like

"A plea of innocent is guilty of wasting my time! Guilty!!!"

"Even a man who has nothing can still offer his life."

"I can't say." - Various warrior lodge members, Horus Heresy series.

"You have committed the ultimate heresy. Not only have you turned your back on the Emperor and stepped from his light, you have profaned his name and almost destroyed everything he has striven to build. You have perverted and twisted the path he has laid for Mankind to tread. As your decrees have stated, there can be no mercy for such a crime, no pity for such a criminal. I renounce your lordship, you walk in the darkness and cannot be allowed to live. Your sentence has been long overdue and it is now time for you to die." - Alicia Dominica, Patron Saint of the Adepta Sororitas.

"I don't have time to die! I'm too busy!" - Goge Vandire, Ecclesiarch and Master of the Administratum.

I love everything about that book. If 40k was ever going to be a feature movie I think Deathwatch should be it.

That is th eone

Also: 'Who are you?' 'I am your death, traitor!'

Taldeer had some brilliant quotes in Dark Crusade, especially when she was trash-talking the other commanders.

Taldeer: "Seeing virtue in idiocy is the prerogative of the young."



Thule: "We have yet to meet our betters, Alien. Certainly not on this god-forsaken world. All we have seen here are deluded tyrants, heretics, and alien scum!"

Taldeer: "You should have looked beyond your mirror, then."

"If I am guilty of anything it is the simple pursuit of knowledge."
