This one comes from the 5th ed rulebook and it's in the shooting section near a drawing of a Sister of Battle in cover, if I remember correctly.

Anything from the Gaunts Ghosts series really (Abnett's great at creating character lines).From what I can remember though Lijah Cuu's synonymous, "sure as sure", was a pretty nice line....that's gotten me a few odd glances whenever I've used it publicly.

Hmn, need to look out some of those books to find a better one. XD

"The saint Sebastian Thor once said a man who has faith can overcome any obstacle, a legion of the faithful is unstoppable. ...Our enemy has a faith too, and they are without number", no idea what the source of that one was (and I'm sure I've got the wording wrong) , but it sparked as being extra heretical.

Oh, there's so many great ones to choose from, though I feel Chaos-aligned characters tend to say the coolest stuff.

"Your presence does not surprise me Assassin. I have known of you since your craft entered the Eastern Fringes. Why did I not have you killed? Because your mission and the act you are about to commit proves the truth of all I have ever said or done. I merely punished those who had wronged, just as your false Emperor now seeks to punish me. Death is nothing compared to vindication."
~ Konrad Kurze, moments before his death at the hands of Callidus Assassin M'Shen

"What is Chaos? Suffering, you might say. Oppression. Deceit. But could not all these things be said of your Imperium? You hunt down the talented and the strong-willed. You break them or sacrifice them. You lie to your citizens and wage war on those who dare speak out. The inquisitors you call masters assume guilt and execute millions on a whim. And why? Why do you do this? Because you know Chaos is there but you do not know how to fight it, so you crush your own citizens for fear that they might aid the Enemy. The Imperium suffers because of Chaos. No matter how hard you fight, that will never change. Chaos exists in a state of permanent victory over you - you dance to our tune, mortal one, you butcher and torture and repress one another because the gods of the warp require you to. The Imperium is founded on Chaos. My lord Tzeentch won your war a long, long time ago."
~ Ghargatuloth, Daemon Prince of Tzeentch

"Let the galaxy burn."
~ Horus Lupercal

"The difference between gods and daemons largely depends upon where one is standing at the time."
~ Lorgar Aurelian

"There is a cancer eating at the Imperium. With each decade it advances deeper, leaving drained, dead worlds in its wake. This horror, this abomination, has thought and purpose that functions on an unimaginable, galactic scale and all we can do is try to stop the swarms of bioengineered monsters it unleashes upon us almost by instinct. We have given the horror a name to salve our fears; we call it the Tyranid race, but if is aware of us at all it must know us only as prey."
~ Inquisitor Czevak

"Get 'em boyz! Dakka dakka dakka! WAAAGH! THE ORKS! WAAAGH!"

Friend, be of good cheer, our savior the Emperor has brought us to this fine world with its open skies and wide vistas, and as plentiful scavenging as I've ever seen, and all he asks is that we kill a few of those godless bastards yonder.

"It is my belief that foreign travel narrows the mind wonderfully."
- Attributed to Helem Bosch

I remind this to myself everytime I board a plane.

And after being grounded for almost a moth and half by a wild strain of E. Coli I probably surely got via airport food, I'd say foreign travel not only narrows the mind but also loosens the bowels. Wonderfully.
