Well I have a couple from Warhammer 40K codex's and stories I rather like:
"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."
"What I cannot crush with words I will crush with the tanks of the Imperial Guard!"
Both are from Lord Commander Solar Macharius.
"Into the fires of battle, unto the anveil of war!"
Battle cry of the Salamander Space Marine Chapter.
"No Fear! No Pity! NO REMORSE!"
Battle cry of the Black Templar Space Marine Chapter.

Of course, there's the famous (and quite sadly possibly untrue) last words of Voltaire. On his deathbed, a man came from the church in an attempt to give him his last rights and to renounce satan, to which he supposedly replied "Now, now. This is not the time to make enemies".
Oh, and on a similar vein:
"Good girls goes to heaven. The rest of 'em can get as far as they please".
Well, something like that... Doesn't go through translation very well.
