Reading and Ramblings of Fantastical Fiction discussion

Is there a passage in a book that really strikes a chord with you? Something memorable or laugh out loud funny?

Share it with the group in this thread. Be sure to let us know where the quote comes from. Providing a link to the book is always helpful.

This Quote is from "The Way of Kings" by Brandon Sanderson
"Living is harder than dying, (The Radiant's) duty is to live." Teft Page 831
"Strength does not make one capable of rule; it makes one capable of service." Teft Page 831
"There are always several ways to achieve a goal. Failure is preferable to winning through unjust means. ... In the end, all men die. How you lived will be far more important to the Almighty than what you accomplished." Teft Page 931

Some of my favourite quotes are from Douglas Adams, he just has such a quirky sense of humour!

From The Restaurant at the End of the Universe:
"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."

I agree with you about Douglas Adams. His Hitchhiker books have some awesome quotes in it. Very funny.
