"For us, warfare has become unavoidable. Savage, alien beasts are loose in the garden of Planet and cannot be ignored. Though we have no love of conflict, Planet smiles upon our work when the beasts are silenced. Planet is wise for she knows, as we know, that all things must come at last to the final, sweet caress of existence... death."
- Deidre, of course

Overheard on the Psychic Hotline after a certain faction discovered "Centauri Meditation":
"So, Chiron, or should I call you Planet? Do you really want to spend the rest of your eternal orbit meditating? Let me ask you a question: Where do you see yourself in 10 years? Have you considered the KILLING you could make in municipal bonds? With the right management team on your side, you could ride this Planet to the stars ... well, so to speak ..."

"Why yes, yes I did blow up your Scout Rover with a Singularity Planetbuster Missile. Maybe your should put down your Bible and pick up a science book for a change Miriam."
Proktor Zaratov to Sister Miriam after creating a new lake on Planet.
"Nuke them from orbit."
Bumper sticker on Zaratov's personal Rover.
"Tragity is when it takes me two turns to research a new science, comedy is when I kill you with it."
Proktor Zaratov.
"Deidre, I am going to show you the fastest way to become one with the Planet, look up..."
Proktor Zaratov.
"No Santiago, you may not play with my toys, they might make you dangerous."
Proktor Zaratov to Col. Santiago.
"What is the fastest way to kill a Hive? Shoot it with a Planetbuster."
Proktor Zaratov to Chairman Yang just before Yang ceased to exist.
As you can see I have been playing UoP to their fullest.

I can't speak for Zakharov, but Lone War's credo is obvious: "When your only tool is a hammer all the factions start to look like nails."

"You don't actually think you're going to win, do you?"
-Proktor Zaratov to Sister Miriam after she declared Vendeta against him when he outnumbered her five to one.

"Planet is our birthright. We must defend our birthright against those who seek to plunder and descreate her for their own selfish desires. Be strong, children of Planet! Planet with us; we shall triumph!"
-Lady Deidre Skye, speech before fateful battle of the Monsoon Jungles

"We seek a peaceful coexistence. We only want to endevour ourselves to research and learning, yet there are those who fear knowledge and science and seek to quell the intrinsic curiosity of mankind for his environment. They seek the very destruction of our human race! My friends and colleagues, to arms!"
-Academician Prokhor Zakharov, appealing before the Council of the University against the Believers.

"This has gone far enough! A pact of mutual arms disarment is madness! What guarantee do we have, if we lay down our arms only to be caught in a surprise attack? No, the only guarantee we have is when Spartan Federation flag flies high and proud over their outposts!"
-Colonel Corazon Santiago, rallying her followers against a blood truce
