Robert Jordan
“The Shadow shall rise across the world, and darken every land, even to the smallest corner, and there shall be neither Light nor safety. And he who shall be born of the Dawn, born of the Maiden, according to Prophecy, he shall stretch forth his hands to catch the Shadow, and the world shall scream in the pain of salvation. All Glory be to the Creator, and to the Light, and to he who shall be born again. May the Light save us from him. —from Commentaries on the Karaethon Cycle
Sereine dar Shamelle Motara
Counsel-Sister to Comaelle,
High Queen of Jaramide
 (circa 325 AB, the Third Age)”
Robert Jordan, The Shadow Rising

Jay-Z
“I’d written America off, at least politically. Of course, it’s my home, and home to millions of people trying to do the right thing, not to mention the home of hip-hop, Quentin Tarantino flicks, the crossover dribble and lots of other things I couldn’t live without. But politically, its history is a travesty. A graveyard. And I knew some of the bodies it buried.”
Jay-Z, Decoded

T.H. White
“True warfare is rarer in Nature than cannibalism.”
T.H. White, The Once and Future King

Dan Simmons
“[When you meet a swordsman/ meet him with a sword Do not offer a poem to anyone but a poet]”
Dan Simmons, The Fall of Hyperion

Edmond Rostand
“CYRANO:—of pride, of aspiration, Of feeling, poetry—of godlike spark Of all that appertains to my big nose, [He turns him by the shoulders, suiting the action to the word]: As. . .what my boot will shortly come and kick! THE BORE [running away]: Help! Call the Guard! CYRANO: Take notice, boobies all, Who find my visage's center ornament A thing to jest at—that it is my wont—An if the jester's noble—ere we part To let him taste my steel, and not my boot!”
Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac
