There is no voting or nomination process for the QotD. If you have a quote you think would be a good choice, simply add it to the list in the next available day. This is a fairly easy two-step process.

• Create an entry in this page. This should be of the format

===Month name day, year ===
{{L5R:Quote for Month name day, year}}

• Click on the red link that appears and create the new quote template. This should be of the format

Quote
<div style="text-align: right;">''Speaker / Literary work''</div>
<div class="plainlinks" style="text-align: right; font-size: 8pt;">Source</div>

[edit] Febuary 28, 2009

The Khan escaped our wrath once. When next he is within our grasp, there will be no escape.

[edit] Febuary ,27 2009

Fools forget. Make certain you do not.

[edit] Febuary 26, 2009

Make examples of your enemy's errors, but do not make examples of your officers' errors. A man knows his own mistakes all to well.

Showing them the errors of others teaches them confidence in themselves. Showing them their own errors teaches them doubt.

[edit] Febuary 25, 2009

Life is not fair. That doesn't mean you can't win.

[edit] Febuary 24, 2009

Choosing between two evils is still choosing evil.

[edit] Febuary 23, 2009

Guard your words carefully, for you own every word you speak.

[edit] Febuary 22, 2009

But my weakness caused me to fall first.

No. Your inability to accept your weakness caused you to fall first. But now you know it, and in knowing it, you transform it into strength. Lies are told by those who would deny their weakness. The truth can only live in those who see what they are.

Why did you tell me these things?

Because you wanted to hear them.

[edit] Febuary 21, 2009

Cut off the right arm and the left will be wholly occupied trying to stop the flow of blood.

[edit] Febuary 20, 2009

The most difficult act in the world is to sit still.

[edit] Febuary 19, 2009

When a man has time to think, he can make plans.

When he has no time to think, but must immediately react, he can only make mistakes.

Use cavalry and quicklegs to harass him. Give him no rest. Rotate your legions so they may rest while another rests.

Be the hammer and make him the anvil.

[edit] Febuary 18, 2009

Friendship is tested when it is time to share the burden.

[edit] Febuary 17, 2009

How dearly we cling to petty deceit.

[edit] Febuary 16, 2009

Seppun Katsura is my sensei, and Seppun Tashime my lord. I will fail neither of them.

[edit] Febuary 15, 2009

There are two kinds of fools: the ignorant and the stupid.

An ignorant man puts his hand into the fire because he does not know it will burn him. Once he is burned, he will never do it again.

A stupid man will keep putting his hand into the fire, because he will not learn.

When you lead men, remember this lesson. Teach them what they must know. A student is blameless for their ignorance. He only does what his teacher tells him.

[edit] Febuary 14, 2009

As an ocean to a small stream, the leader to his people, this is the Tao to the world.

[edit] Febuary 13, 2009

Learn leasons of the past, for what has happened is happening. What has happened, will happen. By understanding the past, you learn how to act now and how to prepare for the future.

[edit] Febuary 12, 2009

At times, the voice of peace must ring like Thunder.

[edit] Febuary 11, 2009

I will not move until I understand.

Neither will I.

[edit] Febuary 10, 2009

I would prefer a simple conversation, but if you insist, we can do battle first. Then I will talk to your unconsious body.

[edit] Febuary 9, 2009

Be more afraid of an army of sheep led by a wolf than an army of wolves led by a sheep.

[edit] Febuary 8, 2009

My plan has succeeded. They have clutched us to their breast, and now we shall usher in chaos such as they have never seen.

[edit] Febuary 7, 2009

A Hida is vigilant and never hesitates. A Hida knows what must be done, and does it without question. I am Hida. I cannot be defeated.

[edit] Febuary 6, 2009

The queen of ants cannot count her servants, but she knows that they are loyal. Though the Emperor does not know of me, still, I know of him. And it is the Emperor, and Hantei alone, that I follow. With every word and deed, I do his bidding. Even the ants in the field can say as much, though they do not know their queen.

[edit] Febuary 5, 2009

Everyone lies. Even me.

[edit] Febuary 4, 2009

We carry the favor of Thunder. Stand aside or face the storm's wrath.
