## Pathologic (2005)

### General

* Yes?
* What?
* In fact, there are other healers here besides you.
* I have a fever.
* I am suffocating!
* Well, I shall break down soon.
* My hands bend badly.
* It is high time for us to go to the front.
* It is necessary to strengthen the guard of the gun.
* Where are the idle orderlies?
* The world is ruled by destiny and whim.

### Day 9

* **(Haruspex)** Whose will has sent us this plague-hole? We are needed now at the front.
* **(Bachelor)** Whose will has directed us to this plague-hole? We are needed at the front, now.
* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** They want to turn us from heroes of defensive war into a punitive expedition, into hospital attendants!

### Day 10

* **(Haruspex)** We have two days left. The day after tomorrow it is necessary to make a decision. This is the order of the Authorities.
* **(Bachelor)** We have two more days left. The day after tomorrow a decision must be made. This is the order of the Authorities.
* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** We did not hold council with The Inquisitor, though this is against the rules. I rely on the doctors.

### Day 11

* **(Haruspex)** So... the soldiers have risen. They fill up the numbers of marauders, thinned by our efforts.
* **(Haruspex)** I cannot wait any more. In two days I’ve lost two-thirds of my army!

### Day 12

* They try to manipulate us.
* It is impossible to allow a deceiver to play with our free will.

## Pathologic Classic

### General

* Yes?
* What?
* You are not the only healer here.
* I am feverish.
* Mm, hm, I'm suffocating.
* That does it. I'm going to break soon.
* My arms are stiff.
* We need to go back to the front.
* Weapon security must be tightened.
* Where are the orderlies? Those lazy bastards.
* Luck and temper rule the world.

### Day 9

* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** Whose will was it that sent us to this plague-ridden hellhole? We're needed at the front line.
* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** We fought a just defensive war and now they want to turn us into a punitive expedition. Into corpsmen!

### Day 10

* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** We have two more days. The choice has to be made the day after tomorrow. This is the order of the Powers That Be.
* **(Bachelor / Haruspex)** The Inquisitor and I haven't held council even though it's against the rules. I place my trust in the doctors.

### Day 11

* **(Haruspex)** So... there's a mutiny. We thinned out the ranks of marauders... but now they've got new blood!
* **(Haruspex)** I can't wait any longer. I’ve lost two-thirds of my troops here in two days!

### Day 12

* We're being manipulated.
* We can't let cheats play with our free will.

## Pathologic 2

* We have two more days. Day after tomorrow, a choice must be made. So say the Powers That Be.
* I can't wait any longer. I've lost two-thirds of my troops here in just two days!
* Who decided we should march to this plague-ridden hellhole? We're needed at the front!
* We fought a just war and now they want to turn us into a sanitary expedition… into a death squad!
* Yes?
* What?
* A man like this can't command a regiment! If he wasn't such a wastrel, maybe…
* This is, after all, artillery. Fire from the heavens.
* War consumes a man like no other occupation.
* And so they attack, while our flank lies open. If our line breaks at Bronnik, we'll lose the fourth division…
* For each traitor in the senior army staff, there's a coward, two drunkards, and three idiots. And I'm not sure who's worse.
* Where did half the regiment go? God knows! Our couriers vanished into the fog of war…
* …A Brigadier General at twenty-seven. Still weighted with captain's bars…
* What do you call such a man? A slave. You call him a slave.
* An army marches on its stomach… and right off a cliff if need be.
* I make no promises regarding the taste. But it is warm.
* I feel feverish.
* Plans are worthless, but planning is priceless.
* The feet go slow when the head's full of snow.
* Worst of all, a coward. Always was a coward. Oh, how I hate it…
* I've had enough… I'm going to break, soon.
* My arms are stiff...
* We need… we need to get back to the front!
* Where are my aides? Where's my batman?
* Foolish, foolish. How foolish I was…
* The Inquisitor and I haven't held council, against protocol. I place my trust in the doctors.
* A man's nerves can only take so much.
* And the rain! The goddamn rain, does it ever end? Pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring…
