“What’ll happen to it, do you think?” she asked. “Will it be all right?”
“You sound like Hagrid,” said Ron. “It’s a dragon, Hermione, it can look after itself. It’s us we need to worry about.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, I don’t know how to break this to you,” said Ron, “but I think they might have noticed we broke into Gringotts.”
All three of them started to laugh, and once started, it was difficult to stop. Harry’s ribs ached, he felt lightheaded with hunger, but he lay back on the grass beneath the reddening sky and laughed until his throat was raw.

Buffy:  Vampires are creeps.
Giles:  Yes, that’s why one slays them.
Buffy:  I mean, people are perfectly happy getting along, and then vampires come, and they run around and they kill people, and they take over your whole house, they start making these stupid little mini pizzas, and everyone’s like, ‘I like your mini pizzas,’ but I’m telling you, I am…
Giles:  Uh, uh, Buffy! I-I believe the… subtext here is, is, rapidly becoming, uh, uh, text.

‘You go a-walking,’ he said. ‘Do for all love go walking up very steep heights — traverse the Rock from end to end — traverse it again and again on an empty stomach. You are an obese subject; your hand quiver as you go. You must weight sixteen or even seventeen stone.’
‘And to be sure I do sweat like a mare in foal,’ he reflected, sitting under the shade of a boulder, loosening his waist-band and mopping himself.

Benjamin Sisko: Ensign, I believe you know the way to Cardassia.

Nog: If I get lost, I’ll just follow the ship in front of us.

“Dobby!” she screamed, and even Bellatrix froze. “You! You dropped the chandelier — ?”

The tiny elf trotted into the room, his shaking finger pointing at his old mistress.

“You must not hurt Harry Potter,” he squeaked.

“Kill him, Cissy!” shrieked Bellatrix, but there was another loud crack, and Narcissa’s wand too flew into the air and landed on the other side of the room.

“You dirty little monkey!” bawled Bellatrix. “How dare you take a witch’s wand, how dare you defy your masters?”

“Dobby has no master!” squealed the elf. “Dobby is a free elf, and Dobby has come to save Harry Potter and his friends!”

Oz:  Oh, hey! Animal cracker?

Willow:  No, thank you. How’s your arm?

Oz:  Suddenly painless.

Willow:  You can still play the guitar okay?

Oz:  Oh, not well, but not worse.

Willow:  Y’know, I never really thanked you.

Oz:  Ooo, yeah, please don’t. I don’t do thanks. I get all red. Have to bail. It’s not pretty.

Willow:  Well, then forget that thing. E-especially with the part where I kind of owe you my life.

Oz:  Oh, look! Monkey! And he has a little hat. And little pants.

Willow:  Yeah, I-I see!

Oz:  The monkey’s the only cookie animal that gets to wear clothes, you know that?

[Willow smiles.]

Oz:  You have the sweetest smile I’ve ever seen… So, I’m wondering, do the other cookie animals feel sorta ripped? Like, is the hippo going, ‘Hey, man, where are *my* pants? I have my hippo dignity!’ And you know the monkey’s just, ‘I mock you with my monkey pants!’ And there’s a big coup in the zoo.

Willow:  The monkey is French?

Oz:  All monkeys are French. You didn’t know that?

Willow:  No.

Knock-knock on the door. ‘Beg pardon, your honour. Loblolly boy’s all in a mother, sir. Young Mr Ricketts has swallowed a musket-ball and they can’t get it out. Choking to death, sir, if you please.’

‘Forgive me,’ said Stephen, carefully putting down his glass and covering it with a red spotted handkerchief, a bandanna.

‘Is all well — did you manage . . .?’ asked Jack five minutes later.

‘We may not be able to do all we could wish in physic,’ said Stephen with quiet satisfaction, ‘but at least we can give an emetic that answers, I believe. You were saying, sir?’

Cardassian Computer Voice: The time is 0500.

Julian Bashir: Mmyeahalright.

Ezri Dax: Julian?

Julian Bashir: Yes?

Ezri Dax: We have to get up.

Julian Bashir: Are you sure?

Ezri Dax: It’s a big day.

Julian Bashir: It was a big night. Cleared up a lot of unanswered questions.

Ezri Dax: Such as?

Julian Bashir: Such as, just how far these spots really go down.

Dobby’s enormous, tennis-ball-shaped eyes were wide; he was trembling from his feet to the tips of his ears. He was back in the home of his old masters, and it was clear that he was petrified.

“Harry Potter,” he squeaked in the tiniest quiver of a voice, “Dobby has come to rescue you.”
