Quote of the Day

Ron struggled for a moment before managing to extract his wand from his pocket.
“It’s no wonder I can’t get it out, Hermione, you packed my old jeans, they’re tight.”
“Oh, I’m so sorry,” hissed Hermione, and as she dragged the waitress out of sight of the windows, Harry heard her mutter a suggestion as to where Ron could stick his wand instead.

Oh that's what that song is about?

Buffy:  It was terrible. I moped over you for months. Sitting in my room listening to that Divinyls song ‘I Touch Myself’….. Of course, I had no idea what it was about.

[at the end of the conversation]

Willow:  (realizes) Oh, that’s what that song is about?!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 2: Episode 7 – “Lie to Me”

Quote of the Day

A Montpellier snake glided out with a dry rustling sound and traversed the room in a series of extraordinarily elegant curves, its head held up some eighteen inches above the ground.
‘Oh, oh, oh,’ cried Jack, leaping on to a chair. ‘A snake!’
‘Will these do?’ asked Stephen. ‘They have a hole in them.’
‘Is it poisonous?’
‘Extremely so. I dare say it will attack you, directly. I have very little doubt of it. Was I to put the silk stockings over my worsted stockings, sure the hole would not show: but then, I should stifle with heat. Do not you find it uncommon hot?’
‘Oh, it must be two fathoms long. Tell me, is it really poisonous? On your oath now?’
‘If you thrust your hand down its throat as far as its back teeth you may meet a little venom; but not otherwise. Malpolon monspessulanus is a very innocent serpent. I think of carrying a dozen aboard, for the rats — ah, if only I had more time, and if it were not for this foolish, illiberal persecution of reptiles . . . What a pitiful figure you do cut upon that chair, to be sure. Barney, Barney, buck or doe, Has kept me out of Channel Row,’ he sang to the serpent; and, deaf as an adder though it was, it looked happily into his face while he carried it away.

Julian Bashir: Miles – you thinking what I’m thinking?

Miles O’Brien: It depends on what you’re thinking.

Quote of the Day

“I like this song,” said Luna, swaying in time to the waltzlike tune, and a few seconds later she stood up and glided onto the dance floor, where she revolved on the spot, quite alone, eyes closed and waving her arms.
“She’s great, isn’t she?” said Ron admiringly. “Always good value.”

Xander:  It’s strange, but beating up that pirate gave me a weird sense of closure.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 2: Episode 6 – “Halloween”

Quote of the Day

‘My heart bleeds for you. I have never yet known a man admit he was either rich or asleep: perhaps the poor man and the wakeful man have some great moral advantage.’

Master and Commander – Patrick O’Brian

Quote of the Day

Quark: Have you ever seen anything so disgusting? The way he’s undressing her with his eyes… And look at his hands!

Odo: What about his hands?

Quark: His gestures, they’re obscene. You should arrest him.

Odo: You’re joking.

Quark: He’s pitiful. Doesn’t he realize she loves me?

Odo: I don’t think he does. To be honest, I don’t think she does either.

Quark: Thanks for your support.

“Wow,” he added, blinking rather rapidly as Hermione came hurrying toward them. “You look great!”
“Always the tone of surprise,” said Hermione, though she smiled.

Willow, Giles, Halloween

Giles:  Well, alright, l-let’s, let’s, let’s review. Um, so everybody became, uh, whatever they were masquerading as.

Willow:  Right. Xander was a soldier and Buffy was an 18th-century girl.

Giles:  A-and, uh, your, your costume?

Willow:  I’m a ghost!

Giles:  Yes. Um… w, uh, uh, uh, the ghost of what, exactly?
