I knew the knight on guard at the drawbridge so I hit hit him over the head because I didn't want to hurt him.Garion blinked.'I knew he'd be honor-bound to try to stop us,' Lelldorin explained. 'I didn't want to have to kill him, so I hit him over the head.'I suppose that makes sense,' Garion said dubiously.'Arianna's almost positive he won't die.'DIE?'I hit him just a little too hard, I think.

— Criss JamiDon't open the door to strangers,' said her dad. 'Unless they're selling something. Then open the door and see if I'd like it. If I'd like it, buy it for me. But nothing cheap. I have standards. Nothing too expensive, either. My standards aren't that high.

— Ilona AndrewsIf I wanna die I may be awesome that I fear nothing. So I can do anything in this earth. Cause I am about to die. And If I start to do anything in this earth, the worst can be, I will die. This is the way I make impossibles possible.
— Arefin Bashar ArifOkay, let's see if I got this straight. The butt is the new breast, and the lower back is the new ankle. Now if only we could figure out where the brain has moved.
