5 to the battle! speeches

Admins too have to take a break, so here are 5 pre-battle speeches.

Battle of the Morannon

Aragorn:

Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends, and break all bonds of fellowship; but it is not this day! An hour of woe, and shattered shields, when the Age of Men comes crashing down; but it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!

Battle of Germania

General Maximus Decimus Meridius:

Three weeks from now I will be harvesting my crops, imagine where you will be and it will be so. Hold the lines, stay with me. If you find yourself alone riding in green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled, for you are in Elysium and you're already dead!!! Brothers, what we do in life echoes in eternity!

Battle of Sterling

William Wallace:

Sons of Scotland! I am William Wallace, and I see a whole army of my countrymen here in defiance of tyranny. You have come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight? Aye, fight and you may die, run and you’ll live. At least a while... And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our freedom?! Alba gu brath!

Battle of Pelennor Fields

King Thedeon:

Forth! Down fear of darkness! Arise! Arise, Riders of Théoden! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered! A sword day... a red day... and the sun rises! Ride now... Ride now... Ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Death!

Battle of Thermopylae

King Leonidas: 

This is where we hold them, this is where we fight. This is where they die! Remember this day men, for it will be yours for all time! Spartans, prepare for glory!
