Where's that quote from?

[Valda, Adlav and Samiam: the Jacked-Up Trinity]

We all have one. A quote we absolutely love, but can't think of what it's from. Mine is:

"Strong like bull. Smart like tractor."

Does anyone know what it's from?

Maybe you have a beloved quote but don't know where it's from?

[TheTick]

"But what does it do?"
"It doesn't do anything, that's the beauty of it!"

We've been debating and searching this one at another forum I frequent for YEARS.

[Valda, Adlav and Samiam: the Jacked-Up Trinity]

Do you know where mine is from?

Nice Gabe avi btw! ;D

[kriklaf]

How about this?

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Sorry, got no idea on the others.

[Pensive Pine]

I'm curious as to where "I am made of awesome!" came from.

[Tiberian]

"You Gotta Be So Good, They Can't Ignore You."

I think its in one of the Ender books, but I can't place it.

[Valda, Adlav and Samiam: the Jacked-Up Trinity]

I really need to read those.

[TheTick]

Tiberian, I don't have them handy but that very well could be from the Shadow series from Card (Ender's Shadow most likely). But yes, read Ender's Game first! I'm a long time member of OSC's message board, been a fan for a looooong time.

Thanks for the avatar comment, I made that one for the current contest. :)

I could swear it's from a Magic card. Null Rod, maybe?

[NeonBlack]

I could swear it's from a Magic card. Null Rod, maybe?

Almost. Null Rod's flavour text is:

Gerrard: "But it doesn't do anything!"
Hanna: "No—it does nothing.".

So close, but no cigar.

[McDeath]

I have no idea where this is from, but I would like to know.

"Oh, he's on the List."
"You do realise that's not notepaper? That's a piece of bark."
"You're on the list too, smartass."

I think it's either from the old superman or incredible hulk movies, but I'm not sure...

[Jibar]

"Who's the rat in the dress now, bitch!?"
I think it's the Constantine movie...

[Valda, Adlav and Samiam: the Jacked-Up Trinity]

Seems like hte Hulk would be the better candidate between the two.

[Tom_Violence]

"Who's the rat in the dress now, bitch!?"

Yep, it is. His little assistant guy or whatever says it to the bouncer with the silly psychic card thingies. Good film, I thought.

I don't have any myself, but not long ago I was trying to remember where the "What we do in life echoes in eternity" line was from. It was during a pub quiz and just before the end of the round I finally remembered it and promptly blurted it out to the entire room. :P

Not a quote, per se, but it's been bugging me for some time and I don't want to reread the book to find it out, but who is Aramis's valet in The Three Musketeers. I know D'Artagnan has Planchet, Porthos has Mosqueton, and Athos Grimaud, but Aramis's eludes me. I'm fairly certain it starts with a B.

[Jarl]

"Long have I sought this power".

-I think it's DBZ, not sure. Possibly Harry Potter.

Must be Harry Potter, cuz no one's watched more DBZ than me and I've never heard that quote.

[Jarl]

We were thinking Frieza Saga, when Frieza gets the Namek DBs. But that's unlikely, because ~1 year is not "long".

-Meh. Who knows.

[Mortia De Luna Draco]

One of my favorite quotes has always been

"Thats not happiness to see me, is it..."

I cant remember for the life of me where that came from though.

[Lucky]

Oh Mr. Mayor, you would not perhaps be thinking of The Perfect Murder?

[Mortia De Luna Draco]

Why, yes, my little golfball in training.

Yes I am. :)

[Lucky]

;D

I'm just that good...

Uh... That good at quotes and stuff... Not being a golfball...

*runs*

From Chapter 7 of The Three Musketeers (http://www.worldwideschool.org/libra...ers/chap8.html), in which all of the lackeys are introduced in turn, Aramis' valet is named Bazin. That was such a good story, and I really should get around to reading The Man in the Iron Mask at some point.

Ah. I see. It's been a while since I've seen the old stuff.

[Don Beegles]

Thank you , Zophiel. I knew it started with a B. It really is such a good story; I recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it.

[HypnoticMonk]

Ok, here's the quote that no one I know can come up with where it was saidfirst.(including myself)

"Who's your daddy?" :)

Not the most literary of quotes, but I'm still curious...

[Lucky]

Well, for "Who's your daddy," it's hard to tell, but I was told that the most likely point of origin is in the song Time of the Season by The Zombies in 1968. Not a movie, but I would hazard a guess at that one.

[MasterofDisaster]

Well a quote im wondering about is "I'm a golden god!" I 'm fairly sure its from Almost Famous but I am not completely sure

[Lucky]

You nailed it, Almost Famous.
