    However, I would sincerely request to all participants that we stop the discussion on the quotes. These discussions should only happen when ThePhantasm posts his update post, and then announces that enough people object to his choices. If he decides to include (or not to include) the "break monotony" quote and you disagree, PM him. But until then, please, lets keep the thread empty of discussion.

    Deep in the corners of your mind
    Where reality is an intruder
    And myth and legend thrive
