Shan Quotes:

  • Geen: [about the Caravan Road] The Shah of Khwarezm imposed a truce. All have sworn to it. All observe it. No warrior is permitted to carry arms here.

    Geen: Good, then we can take our pick without fighting!

    Shan: You do not understand, Temujin. A truce was signed!

    Geen: I did not sign it, the slaves did not sign it.

    Geen: But...!

    Temujin, later Genghis Khan: [Interrupts] Will there be women among the slaves?

    Geen: Yes, lord...

    Temujin, later Genghis Khan: Good. My men have horses and weapons, but no women. How long do you think they will stay without women?

    [At Shan]

    Temujin, later Genghis Khan: How long will you?

    [Shan smirks]

  • Temujin, later Genghis Khan: No woman will be taken against her will.

    Shan: But Lord, that's what women are for! And besides, the best have already been taken!

    Temujin, later Genghis Khan: A wise man does not judge a horse by its saddle markings!

  • Shan: The body count here tonight. 35 dead, including 5 theatre employees, 35 others wounded, most of them in critical condition. There are reports that the boy identified as the killer, Fidge De Sola, seen here in the V.C. High yearbook, had recently been fired from his job as an usher at this theatre, after having a fight with another employee over a girl. Fidge De Sola used guns from his father's collection of Vietnam weaponry. The last victim was the killer himself. He died by his own hand. This reporter was called by the alleged killer earlier this evening. He told me that, in his words, 'something special was going to happen here this evening.' We were here when the shooting began. Those guns turned him from an anonymous lonely teenager, to a mass murderer. Why? Is it something in our nature? A monstrous genetic defect in the human animal? Something inside us all? Not a freak of nature, but a freak by nature. This is Shannon Nichols for KLME Live Eye Reporter.
