What quote (preferably by a famous/well known person) describes your playstyle and why?

I think the best for me is either: "Speak softly and carry a big stick." -Theodore Roosevelt. This works well because I love to diplomatically manipulate people while I pound them Voltron style. or...

"La plus belle des ruses du diable est de vous persuader qu'il n'existe pas." ("The devil's finest trick is to persuade you that he does not exist.")"- Charles Baudelaire, Paris Spleen. I usually downplay my boardstate to make myself seem weak, but then I come out strong with an infinite combo or some shenanigan that wins me the game.

"Measure twice, cut once"

not really a quote but a saying for carpenters

MuggyWuggy

When the going gets weird, the weird go pro.

Examples:

Shocking my centaur battle master in response to target to enable it to grow +3/+3 (counters)

Several master of cruelties on board

Sire of insanity being played

Madcap skills on ErebOs for the win with only a whip on board, returning a desecration demon with it!

Discarding 4 cards in hand to have lotleth troll kill a desecration demon

Madcap on carytid as opponent begins assemble the legion tactics

"Tell me what you cherish most. Give me the pleasure of taking it away."
-Sephiroth
This quote fits me very well with my decks that center on disabling your good creatures.

ImTheGuy

It's not exactly a quote but some buddies I play with have given me the nickname "Fuerza Bruta", which means brute force. My favorite way to play is aggro with a little bit devistating control spells that allow me to barrel through. Like I said not a quote but it still speaks to my play style.

"Death to the opposition!" - Worf, DS9

"Night into day; pleasure into pain; a beauty into a pariah...that is what makes a Transy butler, and I shall make one hell of a feast out of you."
- Claude Faustus, Black Butler II.

This explains my Kaalia deck.
Night into day = the presence of Demons and Angels in the deck.
Pleasure into pain = the shock lands, and the {Bloodgift Demon}.
A beauty into a pariah = Kaalia herself.
Making a feast = utterly destroying the opposition with my horde of creatures.

The slow and steady wins the race.

May you find peace on the high road, unless you prefer a fiery chaos, then may I suggest the low road.

Kaworu, the Fifth Child

This actually comes from a magic card...
"Someday, someone will best me. But it will not be today and it will not be you."
