Iconic Quotes From Raven

“My earliest memories are not of anything specific, they’re more like memories of feelings as opposed to events. feelings of abandonment, feelings of loneliness, feelings of sadness. They say our destiny is formed in these earliest moments. That our fate is determined at this critical juncture. The chosen begin their path towards greatness, the ill-fated are doomed from the beginning.

“The unfortunate devour themselves, searching for annihilation. You see we are all prisoners of our own nature, locked in certain patterns of behavior. I could no sooner change the path that I’ve been placed upon, than stop a swallow from migrating, or a samu from spawning. So it is written, so it shall come to pass. “Quote The Raven Nevermore!”

“We all need a haven, a sanctuary, a place to hide, a place to escape, a place to dream and hope, a place where the darkness won’t seem so frightening. So it is written, so it shall come to pass. But for some the darkness is a relentless enemy that cannot be eluded. And once the darkness senses your fear, once it senses your pain, it is never far behind. I can empathize with these people. I can understand their futilly, I can feel their hopelessness. I feel their pain.”….”Quote The Raven Nevermore”

“I signed your contract, but I won’t conform to your rules. I put certain stipulations in the contract. I’ll sit where I want, I’ll wrestle when I want, I’ll wrestle who I want, I’ll wrestle how I want; that means no disqualification; and you, will pay me what I want. Quote the Raven, nevermore.”

“The chosen begin their path towards greatness, the ill-fated are doomed from the beginning. The unfortunate devour themselves, searching for annihilation. You see we are all prisoners of our own nature, locked in certain patterns of behavior. I could no sooner change the path that I’ve been placed upon, than stop a swallow from migrating, or a samu from spawning. So it is written, so it shall come to pass. “Quote The Raven Nevermore!”

“For two and half years Tommy Dreamer…we fought and epic battle…of mythic proportions. We had a friendship based on love and a hatred based on friendship. You scarred my face…you battered me unmercifully…and you took my girl. But the one thing that you could never do…was beat me Tommy. You could never beat me…and I always pinned you. Two and a half years Tommy…after I came to ECW to excersize your demons…it was time for you to graduate…so I gave you your victory.

“For two and a half years Tommy Dreamer…I stayed away from ECW…and with me gone…your life lost it’s meaning…your career lost it’s purpose and your relationship…with Beulah…lost it’s foundation..you’ve lost your focus Tommy..you lost the girl. Kaiser Souze said “The greatest trick..the devil ever pulled..was convincing the world that he didn’t exist”. Well Tommy…I exist and I am going to be your own personal demon..because this savior..has already been crucified..for your sins. Quote the Raven..Nevermore!!”
