Quote of the Day

When Hermione had returned to her bunk, Harry lowered his voice.

“You only agreed to try and get back in her good books.”

“All’s fair in love and war,” said Ron brightly, “and this is a bit of both.”

Buffy:  Try it!

Oz:  Try what?

Buffy:  Uh… I-I’m sorry.

Oz:  Still not clear what I’m supposed to try.

Buffy:  Nothing. God, I’m… sorry, I…

Oz:  That is a tense person.

Quote of the Day

Stephen rose six inches from his perch at the masthead, and with his hands folded to prevent their involuntary clutching at passing ropes, yards, blocks, and with the ape-nimble Babbington keeping pace, heaving him in towards the weather backstay, he descended through the dizzy void to the deck, where they let him out of the cocoon in which they had hoisted him aloft; for no one on board had the least opinion of his abilities as a seaman.

Quote of the Day

Miles O’Brien: I’m going with you.

Julian Bashir: What?

Miles O’Brien: You heard me. And it’s not open to debate. If you’re determined to go on this lunatic mission inside Sloan’s head, then somebody with an ounce of sanity has to be with you!

Julian Bashir: You just wanna come because you don’t want Captain Sisko to find out what we’re doing.

Miles O’Brien: Well, there’s that too.

Quote of the Day

Hermione put the vanquished Horcrux into the beaded bag, then climbed back into her bed and settled down without another word.

Ron passed Harry the new wand.

“About the best you could hope for, I think,” murmured Harry.

“Yeah,” said Ron. “Could’ve been worse. Remember those birds she set on me?”

“I still haven’t ruled it out,” came Hermione’s muffled voice from beneath her blankets, but Harry saw Ron smiling slightly as he pulled his maroon pajamas out of his rucksack.

Giles:  It’s a reliquary. Used to house items of religious significance. Most commonly a finger or some other body part from a saint.

Buffy:  Note to self: religion: freaky.

Quote of the Day

‘A bearded vulture! It is a bearded vulture!’ he cried. ‘A young bearded vulture.’

‘Well,’ said Jack instantly — not a second’s hesitation — ‘I dare say he forgot to shave this morning.’ His red face crinkled up, his eyes diminished to a bright blue slit and he slapped his thigh, bending in such a paroxysm of silent mirth, enjoyment and relish that for all the Sophie‘s strict discipline the man at the wheel could not withstand the infection and burst out in a strangled ‘Hoo, hoo, hoo,’ instantly suppressed by the quartermaster at the con.

Quote of the Day

Julian Bashir: There must be some way to retrieve that data.

Miles O’Brien: Maybe we should just let him die in peace.

Julian Bashir: Miles… I need a multitronic engrammatic interpreter.

Miles O’Brien: Or maybe I’ll find you a multitronic engrammatic interpreter.

Quote of the Day

“It was a ball of light, kind of pulsing, and bluish, like that light you get around a Portkey, you know?”

“Yeah,” said Harry and Hermione together automatically.

“I knew this was it,” said Ron. “I grabbed my stuff and packed it, then I put on my rucksack and went out into the garden.

“The little ball of light was hovering there, waiting for me, and when I came out it bobbed along a bit and I followed it behind the shed and then it . . . well, it went inside me.”

“Sorry?” said Harry, sure he had not heard correctly.

“It sort of floated toward me,” said Ron, illustrating the movement with his free index finger, “right to my chest, and then — it just went straight through. It was here,” he touched a point close to his heart, “I could feel it, it was hot. And once it was inside me I knew what I was supposed to do, I knew it would take me where I needed to go.”
