I am taking this from a quiz I did on Sporcle.

Below are some quotes that have been translated from English to Japanese then back into English.

Can you figure out what the original quote is?

1) The great power large responsible range it comes depending.

2) The offender is the cowardly lot of superstition, therefore as for my disguise it is necessary to be able to strike fear on their centers. I the night, must be creative ones of terrible black,…

3) Depending upon the brightest day the blackest night badness the badness where my vision does not escape permit the person perhaps the lanthanum light/write of green of my power and worship you are careful,

4) See! On with sky! It' The bird of s.a! It' The plane surface of s.a!

5) It' The time when it strikes without the pardon of s

6) It is stronger than [herakuresu], it is beautiful as Athena which is faster than Mercury as wise Aphrodite

7) To be long the troop has lived!

8) The retaliatory person has gotten together

9) Being Oh highest, me now you raise the wind of the area where you blow, thin therefore I may fly

10) The necessity which you fear is loser here, it is not.

1. With great power comes great responsibility.

2. Criminals are a superstitious cowardly lot, so my disguise must be able to strike terror into their hearts. I must be a creature of the night, black, terrible...

3. In Brightest Day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight, let those who worship evil's might, beware my power, Green Lantern's light

4. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane!

5. Time waits for no man?

6. beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, stronger than Hercules, and swifter than Mercury.

7. Semper Fi?

8. What goes around, comes around?

9. You are the wind beneath my wings?

10. The only thing to fear is fear itself?

I'm thinking 5 is "It's Clobberin' Time" and 8 is "Avengers Assemble".

7 has to be "Long Live the Legion".

ah. for some reason, it didn't occur to me that they were all comic-related.

in that case, #9 looks like something from the Isis TV show.

Could be.

I keep leaning towards "Have no fear, Underdog is here" for #10.

That would be "O zephyr winds that blow on high, lift me now, so I can fly."

I think number 10 is, "There's no need to fear, Underdog is here!"

Thanks to Miner for pointing me in the right direction! I would not have gotten it otherwise!

#8 = Avengers Assemble

That's my guess.

#7 = Long Live the Legion

You have them all now. Some were easy due to key words.

If Loser Lad comes back, he should adopt #10 as his rallying cry.

1. And no for something completely different

5. No soup for you!

7. I'd like to buy a vowel

9. I assume is Mission: Impossible's "this tape will self-destruct in five seconds," but I'm too lazy to look up the exact quote.

So far everthing correct except for Miner's guess on #6.

I had tried "I pity the fool" but this is what came up: "I pity the idiot"

Drat!

Now that I think about it, #3 has to be an Avengers reference. "Mrs. Peel, we're needed", I think it went.

2. The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to your door.
