What are your favorite quotes?

Some of mine are:

1) "Charlemagne Athelstan Redrought Strong-in-the-Arm Lindenshield, your fate will take you south, over burning sands, to a people who wait to be woken by the shadow of the storm. There you will find your fulfillment, and you will return, a Blade of Fire in your hand..."

--Oskan, Consort of Thirrin

2) Where is the horse and the rider?
Where is the horn that was blowing?
They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind in the meadow.
The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.
How did it come to this?

--Theoden

3) “God has neither form nor shape under which we can know Him; when he speaks of Himself in metaphors and similes, He is adapting Himself to our foolishness, our limited capacity” --Christina, Queen of Sweden

4) “To be kind to all, to like many and love a few, to be needed and wanted by those we love, is certainly the nearest we can come to happiness.” --Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots

5) For, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
--The Declaration of Arbroath
