I believe the quote has also been updated (ref: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Conan_the_Barbarian) : Khitan General: We have won again. This is good! But what is best in life? Khitan Warrior: The open steppe, a fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair. Khitan General: Wrong! Conan, what is best in life? Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women! Khitan General: That is good. In honor of the great Arnold Schwarzenegger (who delivered these lines as pure poetry in the first Conan movie), I believe it would only be right to replace Genghis' quote with the above! - Jordan
