The V for Vendetta Speech Dissected – V for Vendetta Quotes

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

Hahahaha, after watching this film so many times (although maybe not as many times as Scott.Life, but catching up) I just had to figure out what all the words meant from one of the cleverest dialogs from one of the best movies ever, and it seemed rude not to share my findings. =)

Thanks all for reading, Viva la revolution!
