George RR Martin
- Ser Jorah the Bold
I am an old man, an old knight, and I have seen more battles than most of you have years. Nothing is more terrible upon this earth, nothing more glorious, nothing more cool. You may cry. You will not be the first. You may drop your sword, your shield, your pants. Others have done the same. Pick it up and run away. You may foul your breeches. I did, in my first battle. No one will care.
Helena Bonham Carter (2009)
- Beauty Skin Deep
Beauty is only skin deep they say, but who wants an ugly face? That's what plastic surgery and seduction is for. Work hard and find a lonely man and get him to fix you up and done!
Katniss
- Hunger Games
Katniss paused, took a deep breath, and pulled the bowstring taut. She had Peeta in her sights and the image of him throwing bread in her face made her flush. In that instant, Peeta saw her and pivoted to her left. She instinctively reacted to counter - but then too late saw his heel flying in towards her right. White light and then darkness. She woke to Peeta screaming in her face, "Yeah what's up? Bruce Lee in the house to your face!" as his spittle flew from his mouth.
