I'm not sure...maybe so. It was just in one of his statuses on Facebook.

"And while the law has many penalties for the atrocities we inflict on others, there are no punishments for the terrors we inflict on ourselves. So you send your men. They won't find themselves a fight. They'll only find an old man. An old man tired, but satisfied that he did his duty. An old man weary from a mind more filled with memory than it is with hope."

You've redeemed yourself from the previous awful Metal Gear Solid quotations. This one is quite good.

"Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war!"

Don't know why exactly, but I've always had a certain fondness for that one.

"The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. So wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up, and smell the ashes."
-Half-Life 2

"Would you kindly?"
-BioShock

"Sit your ass down in that chair and drink your goddamn TEA!"
-Final Fantasy VII

"Boy, it's a shame you have to sit on something that pretty."
-Uncharted 2

"Goddammit, I trusted you! Fuck you! AND FUCK YOUR MARKER!
-Dead Space 2

That last line made me burst out laughing near the end of what I considered to generally be a very solemn game. It's not as ridiculous in context, and I'm pretty sure the designers just thought it would be seen as an exclamation of anger or badass-ery, but it was unintentionally hilarious.

My friend told me that Calvin & Hobbes made a Gurren Lagann reference in one comic...that's pretty out there as far as popular comics go.

A quick googling turned this up.

Perhaps?

This is the only one I enjoyed.

"Would you kindly?" doesn't really work as a quote out of context...also, I'm pretty sure he never just says "Would you kindly?" It's always along the lines of "Would you kindly blah blah blah?" or "Blah blah blah Mr. Freeman, would you kindly?"

Yes, I'm aware there's no Mr. Freeman in Bioshock. For anyone who gets what that first bit's from, high five.

Oh right! So what he must have been saying was that Gurren Lagann was making a nod at Calvin & Hobbes because of the character's sunglasses in Gurren Lagann being very similar to the ones in the comic...how odd.

"Half Life in five minutes."

Or something like that.

Although, come to think of it, I don't know if that's where it originally came from or if it was copying another source.

[Renegade_Turner]

Haha, yes, you got it spot on! =D

"From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of any particular interest. But for us, it's different. Look again at that dot. That's here, that's home, that's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam."

-Carl Sagan, referring to the "pale blue dot" photograph of the Earth taken by Voyager 1.

"You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon?…It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs." - Han Solo. A New Hope

Its funny because a parsec is actually an amount of distance, not time. Parsec: 3.25 lightyears.
