This week is a Top Ten freebie so I am going with - Top Quotes. We did a post like this not long ago but there's no shortage of awesome quotes, so here's some I didn't use last time.
"In the morning we shall have gone; but we will send our messages through the lands. The Wandering Companies shall know of your journey, and those that have power for good shall be on the watch."
"My scouts report fires in the high places at night. Signal fires, they think...as if there were a ring of watchers all around us."
"Speak the names, and a man will do the rest."
"That's funny. The damage doesn't look as bad from out here."
"In the last days of the last moonphase of autumn a wind blew from the northern ranges through the dying forests of Askatevar, a cold wind that smelled of smoke and snow."
"What happened back there?"
"Semtex. I left it in the alley outside the club."
"What? You did that too?"
"No one was hurt. Just a distraction."
"Just a distraction? That was a bomb!"
"Only a little one."
"Have you seen my other shoe, m'lord?"
The question seemed to vex Lord Bracken. "Am I a bloody handmaid, to fetch you shoes? Go barefoot if you must. Just go. "
"Does that mean m'lord won't be taking me home with him, to pray with his little wife?" Laughing, Hildy gave Jaime a brazen look. "Do you have a little wife, ser?"
"I have sworn a vow," he told Hildy wearily.
"No turnips for you then," the girl said, saucily.
"Get out," Lord Jonos roared at her.
"I run here and there and everywhere with my eyes wide open, but I never see anything. Fairy-like, I mean."
"Oh, bloody shit," said Holly. "That will bring the kneelers down on us, and no mistake. Run!"
"I've just about had enough of you. Go that way. You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you nearsighted scrap pile."
Heh, Crazy Eurpoean Chick as is fun as I imagined from that quote!

DeleteLove all the ASoIaF quotes :) but especially "Speak the names, and a man will do the rest." - short, sweet and to the point. Some day maybe I'll reread them again
ReplyDeleteThat is a good one :):):):
DeleteGreat TTT topic! I agree there are lots of quotes in our favorite books to choose from isn't there. I could do 10 quotes from EACH Harry Potter book!
ReplyDeleteHa ha right?
DeleteThis post reminds me that when I read a memorable passage I should write it down! I liked the last quote the best.
ReplyDeleteI love a good quote!
DeleteOh these are great quotes. Love this top ten
ReplyDeleteGreat take on this week's topic! Quotes are so much fun. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteStar Wars is always great for quotes! And The Cats of Tanglewood Forest appears again. I really need to check that book out. :D
ReplyDeleteI had fun w/ the Star Wars.

ReplyDeleteI always forget too...
DeleteI'm awful at remembering quotes, but these are great! I love the Star Wars one!
ReplyDeleteHa thanks Tracy!
DeleteLove that last quote from Star Wars. From C3PO to R2-D2 if I remember right. I always enjoyed the interactions between those two. :)
ReplyDeleteI did too! And yes those two are a riot
DeleteLove how half your quotes are from ASOIAF!
ReplyDeleteI know, I could have used all ten but I thought a little variety might be good :)
DeleteI never remember quotes. I think the only quote I remember was from Jaws. lol
ReplyDeleteOoh Jaws *ideas*

ReplyDeleteSpeak the names is awesome

ReplyDeleteThanks Chrissi
Deleteoh fun! it's always great to read quotes of a novel
ReplyDeleteI agree!
DeleteHah, quotes is an excellent choice - and Tolkien has so many great quotes to choose from. I love quotes.
ReplyDeleteLynn :D
I love quotes even though I almost never really notice them while I'm reading. Or at least don't think of them in that context
ReplyDeleteI still haven't seen any of the original Star Wars movies yet, but the quotes I always hear from them are pretty memorable :)
ReplyDelete- louise ☆
Enticing quotes! I especially like the one Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick. Sounds like a funny one.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to read Au Revoir Crazy European Chick. :D
ReplyDeleteLots of great quotes but I haven't read a single book from your list. I really need to get to Martin!
ReplyDeleteThese are some awesome quotes. I'm really going to have to get on reading Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick. Love that LOTR quote!
ReplyDeleteI love book quotes, and am in awe that you had ten handy for this post. I can never come up with any when I need them. I only read LOTR and that was a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteI love the quotes from Star Wars and Au Revoir Crazy European Chick- it's been so long since I've read A Song of Ice and Fire that I barely remember those quotes (I guess probably too long!). And of course, LOTR is always a win with me. :)
