    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    Marianne Williamson
    “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
    Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of "A Course in Miracles"

    “We are not going to die."

    Butters stared up at me, pale, his eyes terrified. "We're not?"

    "No. And do you know why?" He shook his head. "Because Thomas is too pretty to die. And because I'm too stubborn to die." I hauled on the shirt even harder. "And most of all because tomorrow is Oktoberfest, Butters, and polka will never die.”
    Jim Butcher, Dead Beat

    “So. You get handed a holy sword by an archangel, told to go fight the forces of evil, and you somehow remain an atheist. Is that what you're saying?”

    “A bolt of warmth, fierce with joy and pride and gratitude, flashed through me like sudden lightning. I don’t care about whose DNA has recombined with whose. When everything goes to hell, the people who stand by you without flinching—they are your family. And they were my heroes.”
    Jim Butcher, Proven Guilty

    “Da. This is going very well already."

    Thomas barked out a laugh. "There are seven of us against the Red King and his thirteen most powerful nobles, and it's going well?"

    Mouse sneezed.

    "Eight," Thomas corrected himself. He rolled his eyes and said, "And the psycho death faerie makes it nine."

    "It is like movie," Sanya said, nodding. "Dibs on Legolas."

    "Are you kidding?" Thomas said. "I'm obviously Legolas. You're . . ." He squinted thoughtfully at Sanya and then at Martin. "Well. He's Boromir and you're clearly Aragorn."

    "Martin is so dour, he is more like Gimli." Sanya pointed at Susan. "Her sword is much more like Aragorn's."

    "Aragorn wishes he looked that good," countered Thomas.

    "What about Karrin?" Sanya asked.

    "What--for Gimli?" Thomas mused. "She is fairly--"

    "Finish that sentence, Raith, and we throw down," said Murphy in a calm, level voice.

    "Tough," Thomas said, his expression aggrieved. "I was going to say 'tough.' "

    As the discussion went on--with Molly's sponsorship, Mouse was lobbying to claim Gimli on the basis of being the shortest, the stoutest, and the hairiest--

    "Sanya," I said. "Who did I get cast as?"

    "Sam," Sanya said.

    I blinked at him. "Not . . . Oh, for crying out loud, it was perfectly obvious who I should have been."

    Sanya shrugged. "It was no contest. They gave Gandalf to your godmother. You got Sam.”

    “Holy shit," I breathed. "Hellhounds."
    "Harry," Michael said sternly. "You know I hate it when you swear."

    Jim  Butcher
    “The next time I opened my eyes, I was in the morgue.
    This, all by itself, is enough to really ruin your day.
    I was lying on the examining table, and Butters, complete with his surgical gown and his tray of autopsy instruments, stood over me.
    'I'm not dead!' I sputtered. 'I'm not dead!”
    Jim Butcher, Death Masks

    “Mister Dresden," he said. "And Miss Rodriguez, I believe. I didn't realize you were an art collector."
    "I am the foremost collector of velvet Elvii in the city of Chicago," I said at once.
    "Elvii?" Marcone inquired.
    "The plural could be Elvises, I guess," I said. "But if I say that too often, I start muttering to myself and calling things 'my precious,' so I usually go with the Latin plural.”
    Jim Butcher, Death Masks

    “On the whole, we're a murderous race. According to Genesis, it took as few as four people to make the planet too crowded to stand, and the first murder was a fratricide. Genesis says that in a fit of jealous rage, the very first child born to mortal parents, Cain, snapped and popped the first metaphorical cap in another human being. The attack was a bloody, brutal, violent, reprehensible killing. Cain's brother Abel probably never saw it coming. As I opened the door to my apartment, I was filled with a sense of empathic sympathy and intuitive understanding. For freaking Cain.”
    Jim Butcher, Dead Beat

    Simon: You're in a dangerous line of work, Jayne. Odds are you'll be under my
    “Simon: You're in a dangerous line of work, Jayne. Odds are you'll be under my knife again, often. So I want you to understand one thing very clearly: No matter what you do or say or plot, no matter how you come down on us, I will never, ever harm you. You're on this table, you're safe... 'cause I'm your medic. And however little we may like or trust each other, we're on the same crew. Got the same troubles, same enemies, and more than enough of both. Now, we could circle each other and growl, sleep with one eye open, but that thought wearies me. I don't care what you've done, I don't know what you're planning on doing, but I'm trusting you. I think you should do the same. 'Cause I don't see this working any other way.
    River: Also, I can kill you with my brain.”
    Ben Edlund
