Quote Game

I thought of this one, give it a try:

OK, it goes like this. You say something, a quote or a phrase or a sentene from a book, and the next person in the thread has to say where the sentence is from (if they know), and then write in a new one. I'll start easy:

"Comrades, Snowball is a traitor!" :rolleyes:

[papayahed]

I thought you said you were starting easy?

[Aramis]

Animal Farm by George Orwell. That book was kind of scary. :cold:


Oops, I nearly wrote down a quote that was from a poem, not a book. I'd better not confuse people...

'"Has anything escaped me?" I asked with some self-importance. "I trust that there is nothing of consequence which I have overlooked?"'

[NEDJ293]

"The Hound of the Baskervilles"-Arthur Conan Doyle

QUOTE: "Darling," replied Valentine, "has not the count just told
us that all human wisdom is summed up in two words? -- `Wait
and hope.'"

[Scheherazade]

The Count of Monte Cristo by Dumas

"1 lb. beefsteak, with
1 pt. bitter beer
every 6 hours.
1 ten-mile walk every morning.
1 bed at 11 sharp every night.
And don't stuff up your head with things you don't understand."

[Jay]

Three Men On A Boat by Jerome K. Jerome :D

"Nevermore." (hope it counts)

[mono]

The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe.
(I hope it counts, too ;))

Next quote:

Heartily know,
When half-gods go,
The gods arrive.

[Nerd]

Emerson.

Okay, next quote:
"Pianosa is terrible. But ti's better than the Pactific Ocean. I wouldn't mind being shipped someplace civilized where I might pick up a buck or two in abortion money every now and then. But all they've got in the Pacifiv is jungles and monssons. I'd rot there."

[Aramis]

Catch-22

"'I understand the Count comes from a wolf country, and it may be that he shall get there before us. I propose we add Winchesters to our armament. I have a kind of belief in a when there is any trouble of that sort around.'"

[Taliesin]

Dracula?

The next one is this:

-There are worse ways to die than warm and drunk. I know a brother drowned himself in wine once. It was a poor vintage, though and his corpse didn't improve it.
-You drank the wine?
-It's an awful thing to find a brother dead. You'd have need of a drink as well, Lord Snow.

[Incognita]

"The Black Brother"

someone else post a quote if im right, i'm just passing by... lol

[Nightshade]

"As he dropped the last grisly fragment of the
dismembered and mutilated body into the small vat of
nitric acid that was to devour every trace of the
horrid evidence which might easily send him to the
gallows, the man sank weakly into a chair and throwing
his body forward upon his great, teak desk buried his
face in his arms, breaking into dry, moaning sobs."
