1	->'''Garrosh Hellscream:''' Have you given any thought to what [[AnimateDead this]] means, Sylvanas? What difference is there between you and the Lich King now?\
2	'''Sylvanas Windrunner:''' Isn't it obvious, Warchief? [[WithFriendsLikeThese I serve the Horde]].

5	->''"[[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim The Dragonborn]]] did dick-all to stop Alduin just so she could get a political position and screw about with the local assassin's guild, then took the credit after we bent space, time, sanity, life and death to kill the dragon son of a bitch. When stopping Alduin was '''her job'''. She had '''one job''' and she fucked it up."''

8	->''"Don't get me wrong. I will not claim to be a good person -- I assure you I am not. That said, you are likely to discover I am a proud man. I would consider it a catastrophic failure on my part if this city did not thrive under my rule, a tremendous blow to my ego."''
9	-->-- '''Coil''', ''Literature/{{Worm}}''
10
11	->''"I may be on the side of the angels, but don't think for one second that I am one of them."''

14	->Frankly, most of your name-brand heroes are, for lack of a better term, utter assholes, and The Reckoning is an A-Number-One poopchute. ''[...]'' By way of example, do you all recall the death of Major Proton? In truth, he was ''not'' slain in mortal combat with Teminatrobot, that was only a cover story. Some years back, one of our residents removed one of [=PorcuPinenut=]'s quills from the Major's thigh and called him a... what was it again, Colonel? Yes, "big baby," when he cried. Major Proton [[DisproportionateRetribution transmuted]] the doctor into a [[AndIMustScream sentient rod of fissionable uranium-235]] and stormed out in a huff. [[{{Understatement}} That was quite the day]].

17	->''"You really wanna know why I kill demons? ''Because you jerks attack my friends and my home!!'' Like, I don't give a shit about the human race or blah blah whatever!"''

20	->''"Alvin York [[OneManArmy killed dozens of people]] and he was a hero. He didn't even want to; [[ActionSurvivor he was like me]]. ''[{{Beat}}]'' Am I a hero? Eh, I don't know. I don't think it's heroic if the only person you're saving is yourself."''
21	-->-- '''[[VideoGame/HalfLife Gordon Freeman]]''', ''WebVideo/FreemansMind''
22
23	->''"Speak not to me of Heracles. You know these heroes by their deeds, not their character. Heracles is fortunate he's in my brother's favor. Else he would be in Tartarus where he belongs. The mortal concept of what constitutes a hero is absurd."''
24	-->-- '''Hades''', ''VideoGame/{{Hades}}''
25
26	->''"Oh, what are you worried about, brother? No matter how much blood you have on your hands, the people of this land are in your thrall. For some reason, it seems as though it’s my job to [[HistoricalVillainUpgrade take on your disgrace and have stones thrown at me.]] What do you think? Aren’t I quite the clown? Go ahead and laugh, brother!\
27	"... Laugh. You’re lucky. You’re a national hero, aren’t you?\
28	"If you’re a hero... then '''laugh'''.''"

31	->'''Creator/{{Lanipator}}:''' This special is really fascinating because it has no trouble thrusting you into the meat of the action. Giving you a brief introduction of baby Goku and then switching immediately over to Bardock… well, doing his job. [[BloodKnight A job he seems particularly happy doing.]]\
32	'''[=Takahata101=]:''' Yeah, see, [[PsychoForHire the Saiyans]] always seemed pretty content to mercilessly slaughter the inhabitants of whatever planet Freeza pointed them to, and Bardock is no different. He's a violent, self-serving asshole whose only real concern outside of his own safety seems to be his crew.\
33	'''Creator/KaiserNeko:''' His own son is a write-off in his eyes due to his measly power level, and he seems proud of how well he and his team do their jobs. And that's what makes him a fascinating character. Bardock isn't a good person, he's just the protagonist.\
34	'''Lanipator:''' Don't let [[{{Macekre}} the English dub]] fool you, either. Until the very end of this film, Bardock is a stone-cold killer [[EvilVersusOblivion out to stop Freeza from destroying his race]]. At no point does he repent-- he merely finds solace in knowing that Goku will carry on the legacy of the Saiyans and defeat Freeza.

37	->''"I wanted you to have a normal life. That's something you can't have when Rick shows up. Everything real turns fake, everything right is wrong... All you know is that you know nothing and he knows everything. And well... well, he's not a villain, Summer, but, he shouldn't be your hero. He's more like a demon, or a super fucked-up god."''
38	-->-- '''Morty Smith''' describing '''Rick Sanchez''', ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''
