How strict are the "spanish" demand?

Well, it's not of course, but to make the things a bit harder (or at least not so easy ) I would like to propose that those who post quotes try replacing some words, altering the order of the phrase, etc... so that finding the quotes out on the net be a little bit more difficult.

Your turn again, Henrik.

Just to make the quote complete, I didn't realise it was that hard though. This was what started WWI after all. It is interesting to now that Gavrillo Princip wasn't the only one to try and that it was luck that made him suced in his task.

Uh okay, the date was actually a very good hint, but Waku got it first, as usual... Your turn, Waku!

[Waku]

[Henrik]

It's hard to hint whitout giving it away....
