Q is for ... Quotes!

Following the A-Z blogging challenge, today's post is all about favourite quotes in fantasy, whether it be in movies, books, TV, video games - anything!

I love the Boomstick
Here's a few of my favourites:

What our ancestors would really be thinking, if they were alive today, is: "Why is it so dark in here?" -- Terry Pratchett, Pyramids

'I love you Sorsha'? I don't love her, she kicked me in the face! I hate her! Don't I? -- Madmartigan (Val Kilmer), Willow

Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the goblin city. To take back the child that you have stolen. For my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom is as great. You have no power over me. -- Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), Labyrinth

Given the choice; whether to rule a corrupt and failing empire, or to challenge the fates for another throw, a better throw against one's destiny - what was a king to do? -- Kain (Simon Templeman), Legacy of Kain: Defiance

This... is my boomstick! The twelve-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that?-- Ash (Bruce Campbell), Army of Darkness

A wizard is never late. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to -- J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

That's all I got right now. Please add in your favourite quotes (fantasy or sci fi) in the comments!

  4. I also like Obi Wan Kenobi's line in Episode IV:
    "Who's more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?"
