Fantasy Quotes
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
Dante, "Dante's Inferno" (Above the entrance to Hell)
Sometimes I think the dark is drawn to the light as a moth to a flame. Maybe it is the nature of all things to be pulled towards their opposites.
Elspeth, The Keeping Place.
We make the dragons as we make the gods, because we need them, because somewhere deep in our hearts, we recognize that a world without them is a world not living in.
No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world wihtout magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.
Men wanted for hazardous journey, small wages, bitter cold, long months of complete darkness-constant danger, safe return doubtful--honor and recognition in case of sucess.Sir Ernest Shackleton
Lo there do I see my father. Lo there do I see my mother, my sisters, and my brothers. Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning. Lo they do call me. They bid me take my place among them in the Halls of Valhalla. Where the brave, may live forever.
The Vikings - The 13th Warrior
If I were warmer, I would have an appropriately venomous reply. Be warned...I owe you one
Dominar Rygel XVI, Farscape (TV Show)
John: Hey. Aeryn: A greeting I shall never understand. John: It's kind of all-purpose. Lets the other person decide what they want to talk about. Aeryn: What if they don't want to talk? John: Then they say hey back. Aeryn: Hey. John: Well now the first person that doesn't want to talk can be trumped if the other person realizes that they need to. Hey. Aeryn: I hate being ambushed.
I don't care what Aeryn says. You certainly look dead to me. I don't know your customs for these situations, not that I care. So I'll give you the Hynerian Ceremony of Passage. John Crichton, valued friend. Now wait a minute. Valued friend's a bit of a stretch. John Crichton, unwelcome shipmate. May you have safe transport to the hallowed realm. Actually, not our hallowed realm. That's for Hynerians. Go find your own hallowed realm. With the Ceremony of Passage completed, I declare you officially dead, and claim all your possessions for myself.Dominar Rygel XVI, Farscape (TV Show)
John: How come I'm not afraid? D'Argo: Fear accompanies the possibility of death. Calm shepherds its certainty. John: I love hanging with you, man.
I'm just an ignorant warrior who believes love means you're willing to fight and die for your fellow living beings.
John: Be nice. Aeryn: I'm not good at nice. John: Just don't shoot her.
C'mon you old bastard, show your ugly face. Haven't you read the super villain's handbook? This is where you're supposed to twirl your mustache and gloat
Aeryn: What do you mean you have no choice? John: No choice. Rock , me, hard place.
D'Argo: Well, now I can speak only truth and that comes as good and bad news. John: Alright, give me the bad news first. D'Argo: The bad news is that you are married and you must endure as a statue for eighty cycles in a strange world. John: What's the good news? D'Argo: Chiana and I are having fantastic sex.
Dregon: You're not trained to deal with emotions, so you're afraid of them. Emotional pain, you wear like a badge, it means you've been there and it can't get callused because each fresh hurt stings like the first. Aeryn: Why would you want that? Dregon: Because of all the days before it hurts. The good days when you're in love.
Rorf: What are you doing with that head? Rygel (holding Durka's severed head): He's an old enemy. I like that he doesn't talk back.
