    USS Sovereign (Sovereign class)

    "It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both."
    - Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527), "The Prince"

    Yes, this is an odd quote for a Starfleet vessel, but then again, so is naming a class, Sovereign.
    Vash: They weren't exactly thrilled to see you on Brax. What was it they called you? "God of Lies?"

    Q: They meant it affectionately.

    Q-Less, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    Smile New one...and an overlooked one at that...

    U.S.S. Baden-Powell (Scout/Heavy Scout Class…naturally):
    “Be Prepared”-Lord Baden-Powell

    (Of course this ship could lead to in-jokes about 'Merit Badges' and such, but what-the-hey)
    ...and that's about the time it hit the fan...

    Truisms I know:
    1) Marvel is NOT better than DC (nor should EVERYTHING be ‘ULTIMITED’),
    2) D20 is NOT the best gaming system out there (nor should EVERYTHING be ‘crammed’ into it),
    3) And No matter how ‘THEY’ dress it up, Regardless of how ‘THEY’ title it, and even if ‘THEY’ say “BASED ON…”; “ENTERPRISE” IS NOT STAR TREK!!!
    4) 'Reality' T.V. ain't 'Real'

    USS John F. Kennedy

    "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard..." -- President John F. Kennedy, 1961

    The full quote has to be the god-king of run-on sentances...

    "We choose to go to
    the moon in this decade and do the other things,
    not because they are easy, but because they are
    hard, because that goal will serve to organize
    and measure the best of our energies and skills,
    because that challenge is one that we are willing
    to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and
    one which we intend to win, and the others, too."
    "If it ain't the Devil's music, you ain't doin' it right" -- Chris Thomas King

    "C makes for an awfully long lever." - H. Beam Piper

    A group of quotes from some very interesting sources


    There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires. (Nelson Mandela, 1953)

    I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. The people liberate themselves. - Ernesto Che Guevara

    The greatest leader in the world could not lead until he knew how to follow. Gen Omar Bradley

    We make war that we may live in peace.
    - Aristotle

    Machines don't fight wars. People do, and they use their minds.
    — Col John R. Boyd, USAF

    Patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.
    - Edith Cavell

    Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
    - Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill

    Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.
    - Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill (about the Royal Air Force)

    You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves.
    - Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill

    The issue is not war and peace, rather, how best to preserve our freedom.
    - General Russell E. Dougherty

    The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave...
    - Patrick Henry

    We have resolved to endure the unendurable and suffer what is insufferable.
    - Emperor Hirohito

    Si vis pacem, para bellum
    I was born in a camp on Bajor- I joined the Resistance at 12 to fight for my people and my freedom. I joined Starfleet to help KEEP that freedom. As the Prophets will it I shall not fail you, Captain.

    Lt.Commander Varin Rel-Former Starfleet Special Operatons officer-now assigned to the USS LUMUMBA-NCC-78245 as CTO.
