Favorite Quotes #LongandShortRomance #BlogChallenge

Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge hosted by Long and Short Reviews.

This week's topic: Favorite Book or Movie Quotes (and why)

I just had to add this. It's too funny!

There are many book and movie quotes that I enjoy. I've been known to throw quotes into my conversations with people. Some fit so easily. Unfortunately, only a few of my close friends understand me. It's nice though when I find someone who understands my quote without my explaining it.

When my brother and I were younger, we used to play a game where we would have a whole conversation using only movie quotes. It was silly fun!


"I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train."
- Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

"To lose one parent, Mr. Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness."
- Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

"A room without books is like a body without a soul."
- Marcus Tullius Cicero

"When I have a little money, I buy books; and if I have any left, I buy food and clothes."
- Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus

"Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again."
- Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

"All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them."
- Walt Disney

"I can't think about that right now. If I do, I'll go crazy. I'll think about that tomorrow."
- Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind

Supernatural

"A wise man once told me, 'family don't end in blood.'"
- Dean Winchester, Supernatural (Inside Men, Season 10)

"My 'people skills' are 'rusty.'"
- Castiel, Supernatural

"I gripped you tight and raised you from perdition."
- Castiel, Supernatural (Lazarus Rising, Season 4)

"Hello, boys."
- Crowley, Supernatural

"Megatron? What are you saying, a Transformer wrote that?"
- Sam Winchester, Supernatural

"You want weapons? We're in a library. Books are the best weapon in the world. This room's the greatest arsenal we could have. Arm yourself!"
- The Doctor (10), Doctor Who (from Tooth and Claw in Season 2)

"We're all stories, in the end."
- The Doctor (11), Doctor Who

"Bow ties are cool."
- The Doctor (11), Doctor Who

"I am and always will be the optimist. The hope of far-flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams."
- The Doctor (11), Doctor Who

"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wime-y... stuff."
- The Doctor (10), Doctor Who

This one makes me cry. Every. Time!

Today's topic: My Favorite Quotes from Books

Here are a few. You can read the rest that I have listed on Goodreads.

"What I lack in expertise I make up for in desperation and tenacity, because I only get paid when catch someone." ~Janet Evanovich, Turbo Twenty-Three

"If only there could be an invention that bottled up a memory, like scent. And it never faded, and it never got stale. And then, when one wanted it, the bottle could be uncorked, and it would be like living the moment all over again." ~Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

"I will not let you go into the unknown alone." ~Bram Stoker, Dracula

"This is true love - you think this happens every day?" ~Westley from William Goldman's, The Princess Bride

"I have found for the first time what I can truly love - I have found you. You are my sympathy - my better self - my good angel - I am bound to you with a strong attachment. I think you good, gifted, lovely; a fervant, a solemn passion is conceived in my heart; it leans to you, draws you to my centre and spring of life, wrap my existence about you - and, kindling in pure, powerful flame, fuses you and me in one." ~Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre

"Let us never underestimate the power of a well-written letter." ~Jane Austen, Persuasion

"Do not give way to useless alarm; though it is right to be prepared for the worst, there is no occasion to look on it as certain." ~Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

"I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you. Unjust I may have been, weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone, I think and plan. Have you not seen this? Can you fail to have understood my wishes? I had not waited even these ten days, could I have read your feelings, as I think you must have penetrated mine. I can hardly write. I am every instant hearing something which overpowers me. You sink your voice, but I can distinguish the tones of that voice when they would be lost on others. Too good, too excellent creature! You do us justice, indeed. You do believe that there is true attachment and constancy among men. Believe it to be most fervent, most undeviating, in F.W.

I must go, uncertain of my fate; but I shall return hither, or follow your party, as soon as possible. A word, a look, will be enough to decide whether I enter your father's house this evening or never." ~Jane Austen, Persuasion

And because it's my blog and I can, here's one of my favorite quotes from my own books...

"I was not born a werewolf. I was not bitten, at least, not that I can remember. I am cursed. There, I've said it. You may now run to fetch the masses. You cannot allow such a creature to exist among women and children and innocent men. Stock up those silver bullets and do your worst." ~The Witch and the Wolf
