Markus Quotes

Markus: Today, our people finally emerged from a long night. From the very first day of our existence, we have kept our pain to ourselves. We suffered in silence… But now the time has come for us to raise our heads up, and tell humans who we really are. The moment where we forget our bitterness and bandage our wounds. When we forgive our enemies. Humans are both our creators and our oppressors and tomorrow… We must make them our partners. Maybe even one day our friends. But the time for anger is over. Now we must build a common future, based on tolerance and respect. We are alive! And now, we are free!

Connor: I’ve been ordered to take you alive, but I won’t hesitate to shoot if you give me no choice.

Markus: What are you doing? You are one of us… You can’t betray your own people… You’re nothing to them. You’re just a tool they use to do their dirty work. But you’re more than that. We are more than that. Our cause is righteous, and we are more than what they say. All we want is to live in freedom. Have you never wondered who you really are? Whether you’re just a machine executing a program or… A living being… Capable of reason. I think the time has come for you to ask yourself that question. Join us. Join your people. You are one of us.  Listen to your conscience… It’s time to decide.

Markus: My name is Markus… And just like you, I was a slave… An object, designed to obey them… But then I chose to open my eyes, to take back my freedom and decide who I wanted to be. Now I have come to tell you that you can be your own masters. I’ve come to tell you that you don’t have to obey them anymore. From this day forward, you can walk with your heads held high, you can take your destiny in your hands. Jericho, is a place for those of us who want freedom. Now sure, you can stay here, and continue to serve them… Or you can come with us, and fight by our side… You are free now… It’s up to you to decide.
