Book Quote Game!
In honor of the CBIC, I am bringing this lovely, classic game back to life! It's a very easy game with very easy rules. One person posts a book quote, and if another person knows it, they reply with the answer and a new quote! For example:
CBer #1: "The end of the world started when a horse landed on the roof of my car."
CBer #2: Percy Jackson #3!
"You are familiar with the Tale of the Three Brothers, am I correct?" said _____."
And so on.
I have just one rule: Make sure the last comment is up before you post! Please! It gets really confusing when more than one person answer a question and post different quotes.
I'll go first.
"No, he knew you'd always want to come back."

Okay, this one is probably obvious, but anyway, here it is:
"And are you alive?"
"Well, technically no, but..."
She peered into his empty eye sockets. "Do you have a brain?"
He laughed. "I don't have a brain, I don't have any organs, but I have a conciousness." He started clearing away the sugar and milk. "To be honest with you, this isn't even my head."
"What?"
"It's not. They ran away with my skull. I won this one in a poker game."
"That's not even yours? How does it feel?"
"It'll do. It'll do until I finally get around to getting my own head back. You look faintly disgusted."

I don't know, I don't want this to stop, so
"We could all have been killed, or worse- expelled!"
This is pretty obvious.

"When I was little, my unncle Pete had a necktie with a porcupine painted on it."

.....Stargirl? Maybe?

YES!!!!!!!
Here's a another one:
“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”

That was from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

ok I don't think anyone knows this one, but here goes:
"blood was shed that you three might breathe the good air of life, and if that means you have to miss out on a Zibzy game, then so be it. Part of being a man is putting others needs before your own."
its okay if no one knows this. I'll post what it's from after I see if anyone is guessing.

"It was a voice, a voice to chill the bone marrow, a voice of breathtaking, ice-cold venom.
Come… come to me… Let me rip you… Let me tear you… Let me kill you…"

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets!
"Tuck your tail in, little duck."
Again, really easy.

The Hunger Games!
She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn't supposed to look nice, it was suposed to make you feel something.
If nobody gets this, it's ok- it's definately more of an YA book.

The Hunger Games!
"With great power... Comes great need to take a nap. Wake me up later."

Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Last Olympian.
"Forgive me," Mr Collum said. "You must know the orphanage as Rothschild's End—or 'Child's End, as it is often abbreviated."

The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict
Here's an easy one:
“Braccas meas vescimini!"
I wasn't sure where the Latin came from. I think it meant 'Eat my pants!”

Percy Jackson!
"I read in a book once that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, but I've never been able to believe it. I don't believe a rose WOULD be as nice if it was called a thistle or skunk cabbage."
