Opening monologue from the games

Does anyone know where I can get a text version of the opening monologue's from the first two games? For anyone who doesnt know - a monologue is what the narator says at the beginning of the games. In F2 - the monologue starts:
"War. War never changes. The end of the world can pretty much as we predicted. To many people, not enough resources."
Anyone know the rest?

Yo Kash, the role of a grammar nazi doesn't suit you. The word 'pro
pably', which you like to use, is not correct either.

Given that Kash often rapes the English tongue
without misspelling anything, I am not particularly surprised by the gist of your comment, VasikkA.

Given that your verbal abilities are beyond this world, Im not going to argue against you. Basically what I'm trying to say is that it's a bit silly to whine about a single misspelt word or a letter, as in this case, when there's more flagrant examples of raping the English language. *cough*Hat_Man*cough*
I'm not a native speaker of English. I make mistakes from time to time, but at least I try to spell correctly.

Well I wasn't really all serious with that grammar bullshit. But you really got me with that "pro
ply" stuff. I've alwasy thought it's written like that. I also get confused on how to spell "definitely", "celsius" and "censorship". I almost always get them wrong, not sure if they're right even now
especially when I don't have an e-dictionary any more where to check.
But Blargh is right on the part that I tend to rape the English language *without* misspelling it, for most of the time.

If only you knew, VasikkA.
It's a talent, Kash. That much is certain. It will serve you well in politics, if you let it do so. Loopholes and exasperated opposition all across the house. Yes.

Jesus Christ, can't you read? A monologue is what the narrator says at the beginning of the games.

Cut and paste from my e-dictionary:
"mon•o•logue
Pronunciation: (mon'u-lôg", -log"), [key]
�n.
1. a form of dramatic entertainment, comedic solo, or the like by a single speaker: a comedian's monologue.
2. a prolonged talk or discourse by a single speaker, esp. one dominating or monopolizing a conversation.
3. any composition, as a poem, in which a single person speaks alone.
4. a part of a drama in which a single actor speaks alone; soliloquy. Also,mon'o•log".
5. what the narrator says at the beginning of the games."
