Hi more Tamora Pierce quotes. XD

Daine: I figure everyone in this city knows my name. Did you tell me yours?
Queen Thayet: I didn't. It's Thayet.
Daine: The QUEEN!?
Queen Thayet: Only when I can't avoid it. I hope you won't go all formal on me now, we were having such a lovely talk.

Later;
Daine: You're the KING!? Y-your majesty I- *stands to curtsy*
King Jonathan: No, don't get up. Otherwise good manners dictate I have to stand as well... and frankly I'm tired. :D

This is from Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen. It's really long but oh well. I love this part. :p

Auden: The truth is I'm actually kind of angry with you.
Eli: Angry? And why is that?
Auden: Because you almost got my butt kicked today.
Eli: I did?
Auden: Like you didn't know that was your girlfriend I was talking about. Not to mention looking at while I was talking about.
Eli: Hold on. She's-
Auden: You just let me stand there and shoot of my mouth and then, when she came after me...
Eli: She came after you?
Auden: She poked me in the chest and called me a skank. And meanwhile you're off eating cupcakes somewhere.
Eli: Excuse me, but you were the one who told me to eat the cupcakes.
Auden: When I didn't know my life was in danger! All I'm saying is that you kind of left me there to fend for myself. Which is not cool.
Eli: Look, Belissa is not my girlfriend.
Auden: You might want to tell her that. If you can, you know, make time during the cupcake eating.

LOL. Eli's so cute. <3
 
Two books in which blue hair is mentioned;

Katsa: Raff, your hair... it's positively BLUE.
Raffin: Well, yes. I was researching medicine to cure a headache and apparently it turns fair hair blue.
Later
Raffin: You're in fair humor.
Katsa: *glare* Your hair is blue.

Aly: It's the fashion at the university. It's sophisticated.
Alanna: It's about as sophisticated as a blueberry.
 
What were these mysteries? Was there only one world after all, which spent its time dreaming of others?
~~~The Subtle Knife

"'Pan, no one's done this before,' she whispered shiveringly, 'but Will says we're coming back and I swear, Pan, I love you, I swear we're coming back ! I will take care, my dear, you'll be safe ! We will come back, and if I have to spend every minute of my life finding you again, I will, I won't stop, I won't rest, I won't ! Oh, Pan ! Dear Pan ! I've got to go, I've got to…'~ Lyra Belacqua-The Amber Spyglass.

' Firepaw took a deep breath and chose his next words carefully.
"When I saw Smudge today-that's the house cat Tigerclaw saw me talking with- I saw what life would have been like if I had stayed with the Twolegs. I felt happy that I had not stayed. I was proud I left." He held Bluestar's gaze without flinching. "Meeting Smudge made me certian I had made the right decision. I could never have been satisfied with the soft life of a kittypet." ' -Firepaw to Bluestar, Warriors: Into the Wild.
 
Sopespian: Please accept my condolences, Lord Miraz. Imagine - losing your nephew, the rightful heir to the throne, on the very night your wife has blessed you with a son.
Miraz: Thank you, Lord Sopespian. Your compassion is a boon in this troubled time.
- From Prince Caspian

It is difficult to understand the heart of another man while sitting at your own table.
- From A Tapestry of Hope by Tracie Peterson and Judith Miller

You would have laughed (from a safe distance) if you had seen the dwarves sitting up in the trees with their beards dangling down, like old gentlemen playing at being boys.
- From The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
 
The Johdila [a princess] looked in wonder at Kestrel's smile.
"What do you want me to give you?"
"Nothing."
"Then why are you smiling at me?"
"You're funny. You make me smile."
The Johdila considered this gravely.
"Is that how friends smile? For no reason?"
"Yes."
So the Johdila smiled back.
-From Slaves of the Mastery by William Nicholson
 
These quotes are all from Sarah Dessen's newest book What Happened to Goodbye.

Jason: Now, now. We can't judge.
Tracey: I can. Did you see them, lined up outside earlier? All smoking and surly with about a thousand piercings among them? God. You could just smell the teen angst, it was so thick.

When you can't save yourself or your heart, it helps to be able to save face.

Opal: Oh yes, but, Mclean, you can just pretend, right? For a few minutes? I will owe you big.
Mclean: Pretend to be a delinquent?
Dave: You can do it. Just don't smile, and try to look like you're considering stealing something.

Leo: How can it be a map if you can't tell where you are just by looking at it?
Jason: Leo, that is so profound.

Leo: Here be dragons.
Tracey: Leo are you high right now? Because you know what Gus said, if he catches you one more time--
Leo: What? No, I'm not high. Why would you think that?
Tracey: You're talking about dragons.
Leo: I said 'here be dragons.' It is an expression they used to use, you know, back in the day. When they made maps, for the parts that hadn't been discovered yet. The area they didn't know. 'Here be dragons.'
Jason: Man, that is seriously deep.

rofl, I love Jason. XD

And What Happened to Goodbye is like my favorite book right now. <33
 
From Kristen Cashore's Graceling.
(The leading male, Po, can sense things without seeing them, as well as read thoughts in relation to him)

"The Key was hanging beside that door." He called, and she took a moment to glare in his general direction.
"I only guessed you were looking for the key. It wasn't my grace, so you needn't get all huffy about it. Katsa - have you cut your hair?"
She snorted. "Wonderful. That's just wonderful. I've no privacy and you sense even my hair."
"The men, the merchants. I think they intend to speak to us."
"How do you know?"
"Their rooms are below us."
She shook her head. "No one in this inn has privacy."
"My sense of them is faint Katsa. I cannot sense everyone down to the ends of their hair, as I do you."
"What an honor, then, to be me." She sighed.
 
"Please, Professor McGonagall--they were looking for me."
"Miss Granger!"
Hermione had managed to get to her feet at last. "I went looking for the troll because I--I thought I could deal with it on my own--you know, because I've read all about them." ~ Hermione Granger from "Harry Potter and the Philospher's Stone."
 
'This of course is the way to talk to dragons, if you don't want to reveal your proper name (which is wise), and don't want to infuriate them by a flat refusal (which is also very wise). No dragon can resist the fascination of riddling talk and of wasting time trying to understand it....' -The Hobbit, while Bilbo is talking to Smaug.


'Hiccup could see the Dragon Motivation page he had written in his mind's eye. GRATITUDE: dragons are never grateful. FEAR: Clearly hopeless. GREED: not a good idea to appeal to at this particular point in time. VANITY and REVENGE: could be useful but he couldn't quite think how. That left JOKES AND RIDDLING TALK. This Dragon looked a bit exalted for jokes. But from his manner of talking he clearly fancied himself as a bit of a philosopher. Maybe Hiccup could buy himself some time if he engaged in a riddling conversation....' How to Train your Dragon (book) while Hiccup is talking to the Green Death.


^ I love how both passages come to the same conclusion and how the converstations between Bilbo and Smaug and Hiccup and the Green Death are so similar.:D (They're even both little people talking to really big dragons! haha......:p)
 
These are some of my favorite quotes from Fullmetal Alchemist. It's a show, not a movie or books, but whatevs. =D

Store Owner: What are you, street performers?
Edward: *spits out his juice* I don't think so, pops! Do I look like a clown to you?!
---
Maes: Gracia!
Gracia: Honey... It's here!
Maes: The tea?
Gracia: The baby!
Maes: Aaugh! But... but the doctor said next week!
Gracia: Well, the baby just said NOW! And I'm pretty sure SHE gets to choose!
---
Mustang: You can't say I didn't try to protect the kid, but I'll dutifully obey my orders. At least until I become Fuhrer and every one of them is obeying me.
Hawkeye: Be more discrete about those declarations sir, some would call them treason.
Havoc: She's right, chief, it's a presumptuous thing to say, you got a death wish or something?
Mustang: That's a stupid question, Havoc. I say it because it's true. And when I'm Fuhrer, there'll be changes... That day, all female officers will be required to wear- TINY MINISKIRTS!!
(Hawkeye sighs, Havoc gets a nosebleed)
Havoc: [grabs his leg] You're a miracle Mustang! I'll follow you the rest of my life!
Mustang: Yes!
Hawkeye: [walks away]
---
Mustang: This is ridiculous! Five grown men trying to sneak a peek at ghost on their night off.
---
Mustang: What is this a children's slumber party? You superstitious nitwits need someone to teach you some sense and it might as well be me!
---
Mustang: [pointing the lamp at Warehouse 12] This, ladies, is the twelfth and final warehouse. [pointing to the right] And over there is nothing but empty space. Now, where is your phantom thirteenth warehouse?
Fuery: Maybe it's a were-house like a werewolf and it needs a full moon.
Mustang: [hitting Fuery on the head] Give it up, Fuery.
 
I'll do a couple from Crown Duel (all relating to my favorite couple);

Giving a wail of sheer rage I plucked a heavy silver candleholder and flung it straight at his head.
He caught it one handed and set it gently back in it's place.

Bran: Why d'you think Vidanric sent the escort?
Mel: Vidanric?
Bran: His name. You could try using it, only polite. After all Shevraeth is just a title and he doesn't go about calling either of us Tlanth.
Mel: I'd rather cut out my tongue.

Vidanric: How about a wager?
Mel: A wager?
Vidanric: Yes. Who reaches the inn in Lumm first.
Mel: Stake?
Vidanric: A kiss.
Mel: ... Done.
(LATER. AFTER DANRIC WON)
Vidanric: As the winner, I choose the time and place.
Mel: You cheated.
Vidanric: If you had waited I would have shown you the shortcut.
Mel: It was a trick. And as for your wager, I might as well get it over now.
Vidanric: Wet as you are - and you must be cold - it'd feel like kissing a fish.

(considerably later in the book ;) )

Vidanric: It is time for me to collect on my wager. ( ;) ;) )

Vidanric: Shall we agree to a fresh beginning?
Mel: Agreed.
Vidanric: Then let me hear my name from you, just once, before we proceed further. My name, not any of the titles.
Mel: Vidanric.
