could go here or polls, so i chose here as its more open, but anyway, what is the one line/ sentance/ paragraph/ whathaveyou from a book?
(link to a page on it if possible)


mine goes- from nightbringer by grahem mcneill
http://www.blacklibrary.com/ultramarine ... inger.html

"all humans are but a spark in the darkness.
may that we all burn as bright"

(this is an alteration from a saying that goes;
"every hman life is a spark in the darkness
it flares for a moment, catches the eye and is gone forever.
a retinal after-image that fades and is obscured forever by newer -brighter lights."

Australia n. 'A country lying in the South Seas whos Economic and Industrial development has been unspeakably kittens by a rather unfortunate dispute among geographers as to whether it is infact an Island or Continent.'

*edit*

You know the filter is really really getting irritating.


Inrun Edit: I personally think thats the best filtered word ever.
JimEdit: I agree.

I have far too many favourites to count, or write down. One is the one from 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', that Marshmallow Sky posted.

Another that comes to mind is:

'Oh, the thrill of the chase as I soar through the air
With the Snitch up ahead and the wind in my hair
As I draw ever closer, the crowd gives a shout
But then comes a Bludger and I am knocked out.'

-the poet Igolfr the Iambic

-'Quidditch Through the Ages', by Kennilworthy Whisp (J.K. Rowling)

=D


can't find the sig from this set, so instead, you get a <3 .

Hmm, I have tons that I love XDD but here are some:

'Attucus told me to remove all the adjectives, and you'll have facts' - To Kill A Mockingbird

'A common troll game, where the trolls would flip a coin in the air, and bet on whether or not it would fall back down' - Terry Pratchett

I'm not sure if they are word for word, but it's the main idea XDD

He held up the book then. "I'm reading it to you for relax."
"Has it got any sports in it?"
"Fencing. Fighting. Torture. Poison. True love. Hate. Revenge. Giants. Hunters. Bad men. Good men. Beautifulest ladies. Snakes. Spiders... Pain. Death. Brave men. Cowardly men. Strongest men. Chases. Escapes. Lies. Truths. Passion. Miracles." "Sounds okay," I said, and I kind of closed my eyes. William Goldman, The Princess Bride
