Narnia Quotes Quiz

Lucy, in PC, I think after she failed to follow him or blamed the others.

Did anyone ever get the "It's not horrid" quote?

My next:
"... or if you are too great a coward to do that, kill me at once."

Peeps
 
Rabadash said that in The Horse and His Boy. I assume he said it to Edmund, but I'm not certain.

"I object to that remark very strongly."
 
This was said by the Bulldog, in The Magicians Nephew.

Here are two for you:

Of all the poisonous little beasts!

Whoever heard of a witch who really died? You can always bring them back!
 
The first was Peter regarding Edmund, when Edmund let slip that he had been to Narnia before despite his denial.

The second was the hag in the council chamber at Aslan's How proposing an evil rite to bring back Jadis.

"He's a kinglier man than Miraz ever was."
 
"He's a kinglier man than Miraz ever was."
In PC, one of those two Telmarine Lords--Glozelle and Sopespian I think--when they saw Edmund coming with the challenge.

I love this one. So funny! :D
"Talking beasts, yes...I said nothing about beasts that never stop talking."

By the way, I've pretty much lost track of which quotes have been done and which haven't, but I really don't think we ever found out about the "horrid" one.
 
The one about beasts that never stop talking was Caspian in a snit near the end of the world, after being told by his crew and Edmund and Lucy that he couldn't go to the end of the world.

"Well, at least that's over."
 
"Then, you are Someone, Sir?"
Jill to Aslan at the beginning of SC a little after Eustace had fallen off the cliff.

"You are of a high courage, and therefore, I doubt not, you come of a noble blood in your own world."
 
Frank the Cabby shushing the others as they were witnessing the creation of Narnia in The Magician's Nephew.

"...you have proved yourself no knight, but a traitor..."
 
King Lune to Rabadash, about how Rabadash has proven himself not worthy to be fought by Edmund by his attacking Anvard without provocation or warning.

"I always thought it meant roots of trees."
 
One of the Pevensie children (Lucy?), on the island at the start of PC, in response to the suggestion that they eat roots and berries.

(Incidentally, I have to confess that I'm not terribly clear what constitutes a root. Can anyone enlighten me?)

"I may as well tell you I've got the wind up."

I always wondered too! It can't be tree roots though. I know you can eat some kinds of inner tree bark, but I really just can't see eating tree roots as going very well--that's essentially just eating wood. Maybe wild versions of carrots, potatoes, etc.? Guess I'd better go re-read My Side of the Mountain--I'm sure it'll have something to say about this! :D

"I may as well tell you I've got the wind up."
Eustace to Jill in LB when talking about how he's frightened for the upcoming battle.

My method of quote-selecting is to randomly open my complete Narnia book that has all 7 books in it and find something on that page I open to. I think this one worked out well:
"I only wanted to be quite clear. I think I am beginning to understand."
 
Correct - Eusatce to Jill in TLB.

Yours, I think, is from Ginger the Cat, as Shift explains about Tashlan.

I have also adopted the random-selection method. Try this one:

"Trust me and do exactly as I tell you."

"Trust me and do exactly as I tell you."
Doctor Cornelius to Caspian when he awoke him in the night and told him to escape because Miraz had had a child.

"London isn't a hole."
