Dear Lord, I've been asked, nay commanded, to thank Thee for the Christmas turkey before us... a turkey which was no doubt a lively, intelligent bird... a social being... capable of actual affection... nuzzling its young with almost human-like compassion. Anyway, it's dead and we're gonna eat it. Please give our respects to its family. ~Berke Breathed, Bloom County Babylon

I got two for you:
From Final Crisis #5
Darkseid: I. Am. The. New. God. All is one in Darkseid. This mighty body is my church. When I command your surrender, I speak with three billion voices. When I make a fist to crush your resistance. It is with three billion hands. When I stare into your eyes and shatter your dreams. And break your heart. It is with six billion eyes! Nothing like Darkseid has ever come among you: Nothing will again. I will take you to a hell without exit or end. And there I will murder your souls! And make you crawl and beg! And die! Die! Die for Darkseid!"

From Anders Frieden of In Flames:

Rincewind: I'm not going to ride on a magic carpet! I'm afraid of grounds.
Conina: You mean heights. And stop being silly.
Rincewind: I know what I mean! It's the grounds that kill you!

Terry Pratchett's Sourcery

"I meant," said Iplsore bitterly, "what is there in this world that makes living worthwhile?" Death thought about it. "CATS," he said eventually, "CATS ARE NICE."

The duke had a mind that ticked like a clock and, like a clock, it regularly went cuckoo.

Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters

In fact, no gods anywhere play chess. They prefer simple, vicious games, where you Do Not Achieve Transcendence but Go Straight to Oblivion; a key to the understanding of all religion is that a god's idea of amusement is Snakes and Ladders with greased rungs.

Read the Discworld series. It is hilarious.

"With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility."

"There is only one who is all powerful, and his greatest weapon is love."

"I'm no prophet, but I'm guessing that comic books will always be strong. I don't think anything can really beat the pure fun and pleasure of holding a magazine in your hand, reading the story on paper, being able to roll it up and put it in your pocket, reread again later, show it to a friend, carry it with you, toss it on a shelf, collect them, have a lot of magazines lined up and read them again as a series. I think young people have always loved that. I think they always will."

"I don't really see a need to retire as long as I am having fun."

"I'm a frustrated actor. My ... goal is to beat Alfred Hitchcock in the number of cameos. I'm going to try to break his record."

From "What's so funny about truth justice and the American way?"
Superman: "Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us. And on my soul, I swear... until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice becomes the reality we all share - I'll never stop fighting. Ever."

"The advantage of a bad memory is that one can enjoy the same good things for the first time several times."

"I tell you: one must have chaos within oneself, to give birth to a dancing star. "

"Whence come the highest mountains? I once asked. Then I learned that they came out of the sea. The evidence is written in their rocks and in the walls of their peaks. It is out of the deepest depth that the highest must come to its height. "

-Fredrich Nietzsche
Wyr
"It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination."
-Douglas Adams

"Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop."

"Are you dense? Retarded or something? Who do you think I am? I'm the Goddamn Batman." -The only good thing to come out of the otherwise laughably bad All Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder.

Also, from a much better Batman:
"I am Vengeance, I am the Night! I AM BATMAN!!!"

"Men have two brains but only enough blood to use one of them at a time" -Speaker unknown.

"I can lick any son of a bitch in the world!" -John L. Sullivan (who 'on principle' refused to fight black fighters, which was a good thing for him because he wasn't sure he could 'lick' the black Australian Champ Peter Jackson)
Gathers Scrolls
It is right noble to fight with wickedness and wrong; the mistake is in supposing that spiritual evil can be overcome by physical means. --Lydia Child

Whoso does not see that genuine life is a battle and a march has poorly read his origin and his destiny. -- Lydia Child

It is easy to be independent when all behind you agree with you, but the difficulty comes when nine hundred and ninety-nine of your friends think you are wrong. -- Wendell Phillips

"First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up, because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me." -Martin Niemöller

"kids that come up afterwards and say, 'It's cool you're doing a Nirvana song.' And I think, 'Fuck you, you little tosser!'" David Bowie (bemoaning the fact that Nirvana's cover of "the Man who Sold the World" is more famous than his original version)

“When my friend returns, Armand, you know you must apologize.” The elf advised, a knowing smile on his face.

“He’s deaf.” Armand argued.

“I lied.” The elf chortled, which soon became a bellyful laugh.

“I hate you…” the wizard mumbled, throwing back his cowl.

Well as long as we're quoting things we did:
"No one understands the truth; they don’t want to understand the truth. The truth is that it takes more courage to be the villain than it does to be the hero. The cosmos themselves seem to invariably support the hero, while the villain has only himself to rely on. It took a great deal of courage for Lucifer to stand up to his Creator. He knew he couldn’t win that battle, and yet he did so anyway because the alternative was even more loathsome than hellfire. The alternative meant giving in and truckling to some preordained cosmic design, surrendering his free will and becoming some pitiable creature that lay at his master’s feet, unable to even speak a word in protest at the inequity he perceived. I suppose I always knew I’d be the villain. And if that means I have to go up against the entire Universe then so be it!"

Marvin: That ship hated me.

Ford: That ship? What happened to it? Do you know?

Marvin: It hated me because I talked to it.

Ford: You talked to it? What do you mean you talked to it?

Marvin: Simple. I got very bored and depressed, so I went and plugged myself in to its external computer feed. I talked to the computer at great length and explained my view of the universe to it.

Ford: And what happened?

Marvin: It committed suicide

"Hey, you created me. I didn't create some loser alter-ego to make myself feel better. Take some responsibility! People do it everyday, they talk to themselves... they see themselves as they'd like to be." - Tyler Durden; Fight Club.

"You see, in their last moments, people show you who they really are." - Joker; The Dark Knight

You thought we could be decent men in an indecent time. But you were wrong. The world is cruel, and the only morality in a cruel world is chance.
[holds up his coin] Unbiased. Unprejudiced. Fair." - 'Two Face' Harvey Dent; The Dark Knight.

"Don't talk like one of them. You're not! Even if you'd like to be. To them, you're just a freak, like me! They need you right now, but when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper! You see, their morals, their code, it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these... these civilized people, they'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve." - Joker; The Dark Knight.

"Hello, Troy. I want to play a game. This game will take place in a room not much bigger than the room you spent most of your life in. A prison cell. Despite all of the advantages and privileges that you were given at birth, you have returned to prison again and again. More comfortable in chains than you are in freedom. Tonight, we will see how far you are willing to go to break those chains once and for all. Live or die, Troy. Make your choice." - Jigsaw; Saw III.

"Regrets are forever. How many regrets do you have? One? Two? A few? Enough to fill a lifetime? Regrets are forever. Wounds heal, bones mend, regrets are forever – regrets don’t heal, they whisper and dig deep into our souls." - Harry Potter; Wastelands of Time

Some of my favorites from Stargate SG-1:
Secrets:
Heru'ur: You dare challenge me?
Col. O'Neill: 'S thinkin' about it.
[Tosses knife through energy barrier into Heru'ur's hand]

Serpent's Song:
Col. O'Neill: What do you want?
Apophis: To live.
Col. O'Neill: Can't help you there. That's between you and your god. Oh, wait a minute! You are your god! That's a
[/indent]problem.

Watergate:
Dr. Markov: If you're implying that everything Russian-made is of poor quality, the sub is Swiss.
Dr. Jackson: So it occasionally catches fire but keeps perfect time? [pause] Sorry. I think I've been hanging around Jack
O'Neill too much.
...
Dr. Markov: The gauge must be malfunctioning.
Dr. Jackson: But it's Swiss.

Redemption:
[A hologram of Anubis appears in front of the Stargate]'
Anubis: I am Anubis.
Maj. Carter: [to O'Neill] It looks like a hologram projection, sir.
Anubis: Humans of the Tau'ri. Your end of days finally approaches. There will be no mercy.
Col. O'Neill: [to Maj. Carter] Oh, come on. Who talks like that?
Maj. Carter: Sir, this is Asgard technology. He must have downloaded it from Thor.
Anubis: You will bow to my awesome power. There is nothing that can stop the destruction I bring upon you. Prepare to [indent]
meet your doom.
Col. O'Neill: Oh, please.

The Other Guys:
Herak: No matter what you have endured, you have never experienced the likes of what Anubis is capable of.
Col. O'Neill: You ended that sentence with a preposition. Bastard!

Here's some that fit together:


...and I shall shed my light over dark evil.
For the dark things cannot stand the light,
The light of the Green Lantern! -Alan Scott (the original GL)

In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light! -The modern GL Oath

In blackest day, in brightest night,
Beware your fears made into light
Let those who try to stop what's right,
Burn like my power*... Sinestro's might! -Sinestro Crops Oath

With blood and rage of crimson red,
Ripped from a corpse so freshly dead,
Together with our hellish hate,
We'll burn you all--That is your fate! - Red Lantern Crops Oath (my least favorite)


In fearful day, in raging night,
With strong hearts full, our souls ignite,
When all seems lost in the War of Light,
Look to the stars-- For hope burns bright!- Blue Lanter Oath (my favorite)

Have you ever thought about how utterly ridiculous adventuring parties must look? If you think about it, it's amazing that people even talk to the freaks. Take, for example, our little troupe. From tallest to shortest:

A very tall human (6'3"), fit but very thin (145 lbs - very thin for his height!), absolutely bald, wearing casual but practical clothes. No armor, no visible weapons. Ok, he stands out a bit due to his height, but he looks normal ... until you see who he's with.

An elf, quite tall by elf standards (6'), wearing full plate, big shield, a javelin and sword, usually either carrying or wearing a helm. Now that'll stand out in a crowd ...

Next is a gith woman, positively dwarfed by the first two (only 5'1"), and also with little extra meat on her bones.. Tough, alien, carrying a big, clinking sack, and wearing hide armor. Ok, on her own she'd stand out. Pair her up with two guys a foot taller than her, and we have one strange group.

Only a couple inches shorter (4'10"), a dwarf in full plate, carrying a huge axe. Bumbling, but definitely not someone you'd want to get into a fight with. He doesn't look odd for a dwarf ('armored' is pretty much synonymous with 'dwarf' ), but you have to admit dwarves would look a little comical. And again with the difference in heights!

And lastly, another dwarf. About the same height, but much less fit. And, as Don so eloquently put, he looks like an armored parrot...

Yes, we are one crazy looking group. If I was a slimy information lord, and they came into a bar looking for me, I'm not sure if I'd laugh or run ... probably both.
