Writing prompt: quotable quotes

The majority in last week's poll indicated they'd like to see a new topic for this week. This one came by anonymous suggestion through the poll form.

This one's a quickie! Or...well...as quick as you want it to be, I suppose! Writing in your target language, of course...translate one of your favourite quotes or speeches, either from a work of fiction, or a historical figure.

Whether you're just starting out and giving it a go with "Bow ties are cool." or you've been learning a while and want to translate Valery Legasov's entire "What is the cost of lies?" speech (either from the HBO series, or whatever equivalent he actually said in his memoirs) - give it a go writing as much as you can!

I do a creative fiction themed writing prompt post at about this time every week. Join this chat if you'd like to be notified with a link when the weekly post goes up.

Want a say in future prompt posts in this series? Fill out a quick three-question form!

:D

(And again, sorry for lack of replies from me - still busy with work! >.< )
