I will give you the ones I remember, how about that? :)

3. "Think of the outrage of the biologists!" --Pamela Dean, _Tam Lin_

4. Oh, god. I haven't read fanfic in so long. Er, my favorite *fandom* quote is the "OMGTHEIRLOVEISSO_____" routine. It hardly qualifies, sorry.

5. Right now it's "Hollywood is unlikely to put either of us in hotpants," said by my friend t_ktl while we were talking about our ass sizes.

Mou, it took me forever to get this done. x__x I nicked the Meme but credited you, hope you don't mind. :D

1. World domination. The same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they're Naploeon. Or God. James Bond, Dr. No

B: Special plane, lunch at the White House... how come?
L: The President wants to thank you personally.
B: Oh, it was nothing, really.
L: I know that, but he doesn't.
B: I suppose I'll be able to get a drink there.
L: I told the stewardess liquor for three.
B: Who are the other two?
L: Oh, there are no other two. James Bond & Felix Leiter; Goldfinger

We do not ask for your poor, or your hungry. We do not want your tired and sick. It is your corrupt we claim. It is your evil that will be sought by us. With every breath, we shall hunt them down. Each day we will spill their blood, 'til it rains down from the skies. Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior, and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost. There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth, not to push the bounds and cross over, in to true corruption, into our domain. For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three, and on that day you will reap it. And we will send you to whatever god you wish. Connor & Murphy; Boondock Saints

And shepherds we shall be, for thee my Lord for thee, Power hath descended forth from thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command, we shall flow a river forth to thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti. Connor & Murphy, Boondock Saints

2. Cavalry's here. Cavalry's a scared guy with a club, but it's here. Xander, Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I was watching a television program before, with a kind of roving moderator who spoke to a seated panel of young women who were having some sort of problem with their boyfriends - apparently, because the boyfriends had all slept with the girlfriends' mothers. And they brought the boyfriends out, and they fought, right there on television. Toby, tell me: these people don't vote, do they? President Bartlett, The West Wing

B: I like your show. I like how you call homosexuality an abomination.
J: I don't say homosexuality is an abomination, Mr. President. The Bible does.
B: Yes it does. Leviticus.
J: 18:22.
B: Chapter and verse. I wanted to ask you a couple of questions while I have you here. I'm interested in selling my youngest daughter into slavery as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. She's a Georgetown sophomore, speaks fluent Italian, always cleared the table when it was her turn. What would a good price for her be? While thinking about that, can I ask another? My Chief of Staff Leo McGarry insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly says he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself or is it okay to call the police? Here's one that's really important because we've got a lot of sports fans in this town: touching the skin of a dead pig makes one unclean. Leviticus 11:7. If they promise to wear gloves, can the Washington Redskins still play football? Can Notre Dame? Can West Point? Does the whole town really have to be together to stone my brother John for planting different crops side by side? Can I burn my mother in a small family gathering for wearing garments made from two different threads? Think about those questions, would you? -- President Bartlett & Dr. Jenna Jacobs; The West Wing

3. Biff, you make not think so but from where I'm standing, sodomizing the Son of God is a really, really bad idea. -- Joshua, Lamb

4. Ed felt his brain attempt Flying Rage at the insult to the length of his legs, and thus his height, but it ran smack up against Pleasure, which had colonized the larger part of Ed's consciousness and had no place for his irritation. "A Morning In", a Fullmetal Alchemist fanfic by vikki

5. "I had no idea bouncy balls had that sort of impact velocity." -- describing a boring night at the movie theater.

"Is that a band?" -- Amelia, turning around at the term "oral sex."

"Do it for yourself. The universe will be around to collect its cut later." -- Miles, 'Mirror Dance'

"Am I reading too much into all that innuendo, or did you in fact just connive to assassinate Gregor in one breath, offer to cuckold him in the next, accuse your father of homosexuality, suggest a patricidal plot against him, and league yourself with Cavilo -- what are you going to do for an encore?"
"Depends on the straight lines." -- Elena and Miles, 'The Vor Game'

"It's not a comfortable thing, to be chosen so. I tried to avoid it for a long time, but God finds ways of dealing with draft dodgers." -- Suegar, 'Borders of Infinity'

"Peace to you, small lady. You've won a twisted poor modern knight, to wear your favor on his sleeve. But it's a twisted poor world we were both born into, that rejects us without mercy and ejects us without consultation. But at least I won't just tilt at windmills for you. I'll send in sappers to mine the twirling suckers and blow them into the sky." -- Miles, 'Mountains of Mourning.'

"Don't panic."

"Most of the time, despite the ridiculous Muggle proverb, Snape had found that Misery did not, in fact, love Company. Misery wanted Company to bugger off and die so that Misery could sulk in peace. Screaming Agony, on the other hand, liked Company just fine, mostly because Company provided an alternate target." -- Marina Frants

"As always, I should like to remind you all that the Forbidden Forest has, in the past year, devoured eight-and-a-half of our graduating students, as well as several underclassmen, and is strictly off-limits. Hence the name Forbidden Forest. Believe me, if it were completely safe we would have long ago changed the name to the Come-And-Go-As-You-Damned-Well-Please Forest." -- Dumbledore [QuizzicalSphinx]

5.
"With the Horsechicks, insanity is a communicable disease. Like Pinkeye, only more transmissible." -- Kiki

1. Your favorite movie quote(s).

The pretentious option - Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) in Blade Runner

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships burning off the shores of Orion. I watched... C-Beams glistening in the darkness off Tannhauser gate. All these moments will be lost in time, like tears... in the rain. Time... to die.

Heathers.

Fuck me gently with a chainsaw.

Platoon.

Y'all smoke this shit because you can't handle reality. Me, I don't need that. I am reality.

The Fellowship of the Ring (this one is entirely in the delivery).

Au Revoir Les Enfants:- The scene at the end. It's almost impossible to explain, but it's one of the greatest scenes ever filmed. Shut up.


2. Your favorite quote(s) from TV.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

BUFFY: Does it get easier?
GILES: What do you want me to say?
BUFFY: Lie to me.
GILES: Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats. We always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.
BUFFY: Liar.

Blackadder

MELCHET: I think grey, your majesty.
QUEENIE: I'm sure they were orange.
MELCHET: Grey is more normal.
QUEENIE: Melchie? Who's Queen?
MELCHET: Very well. There were these enormous orange elephants…


3. Your favorite book quote(s).

Terry Pratchett

(These are going to be mostly caps. This is because that's how Death speaks)
LORD, WE KNOW THERE IS NO GOOD ORDER EXCEPT THAT WHICH WE CREATE. THERE IS NO HOPE BUT US. THERE IS NO MERCY BUT US. THERE IS NO JUSTICE. THERE IS JUST US. BUT WE MUST CARE. FOR IF WE DO NOT CARE, WE DO NOT EXIST. AND IF WE DO NOT EXIST, THEN THERE IS NOTHING BUT BLIND OBLIVION.
AND EVEN OBLIVION MUST END SOMEDAY. LORD, WILL YOU NOT GRANT ME JUST A LITTLE TIME? FOR THE PROPER BALANCE OF THINGS. TO RETURN WHAT WAS GIVEN. FOR THE SAKE OF PRISONERS AND THE FLIGHT OF BIRDS.
LORD, WHAT CAN THE CORN HOPE FOR, IF NOT THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?

HUMANS NEED STORIES IN ORDER TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

And from Neil Gaiman's Sandman

There is a cavern beneath the Earth.
This is true. You know in your bones that this is true, although all logic argues against it.

Also, roughly three fifths of the writing in The Dark Knight Returns.


4. Your favorite fanfic quote(s).

I used to have a whole load on my computer. But that's in Britain and I'm in Cyprus. So, none available right now.


5. Your favorite real-life quote(s).

I've said some pretty witty things, but mostly you've had to be there. Something I heard today, said, I emphasise, not to me.

How on Earth have you lasted this long with your nipples still attached?
