    “So, you know that group up there in the Planetarium then?’ The pistol continued. ‘Hey they say it’s a small world.’
         ‘Are they alright?’ asked Semilla darting forward.
         ‘Yeah, they’re all fine, apart from the President he’s rather dead actually, oh and one of the lampposts I’m afraid he copped it too.’
         Baz’s beacon flickered with emotion. ‘Which one?’ he asked.
         ‘There was only one President as far as I know,’ said the pistol indifferently.”

    Christopher Paolini
    “I cannot prove that gods do not exist. Nor can I prove that the world and everything in it was not created by an entity or entities in the distant past. But I can tell you that in the millennia we elves have studied nature, we have never witnessed an instance where the rules that govern the world have been broken. That is, we have never seen a miracle. Many events have defied our ability to explain, but we are convinced that we failed because we are still woefully ignorant about the universe and not because a deity altered the workings of nature.”
    Christopher Paolini, Eldest

    That is true,’ responded Don Quixote, ‘because the number of religious is greater than the number of knights.’

    There are many who are errant,’ said Sancho.

    Many,’ responded Don Quixote, ‘but few who deserve to be called knights.”
    Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote
