A 19ª lista é dedicada às minhas citações preferidas presentes nas canções ou artwork dos Manic Street Preachers. Se um site feito tão cuidadosamente como o http://www.manics.nl não existisse, este post muito provavelmente também não. A ordem das citações não é relevante, e para variar, são 9. No site referido encontra-se muito mais informação sobre elas.
