Pick 10 of your favorite movie, book and other quotes and post them in your journal
As people guess them, cross them off and credit who guessed them.
Tag 5 people to do the meme.
(I'm not tagging, do it if you want)

And if you know lots, don't guess all of them until after others have had a go.


1. "Go then, there are other worlds than these." [livejournal.com profile] woot - Jake, The Dark Tower series, by Stephen King
2. "I saw my parents kill a girl, and then I found a dinosaur in my
basement. I haven't slept in four days."
[livejournal.com profile] lyssachan - Gert Yorkes, Runaways comic Open Bonus Question: Which issue?
3. I say we take off, and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only
way to be sure."
[livejournal.com profile] angelophile with the full guess, [livejournal.com profile] tadiera with a partial - Ripley, Aliens
4. "She understands. She doesn't comprehend." [livejournal.com profile] lyssachan - River Tam, Firefly, "Objects in Space"
5. "Fear is the mind-killer." [livejournal.com profile] tadiera - Dune Open Bonus Question: What is the name of the speech it's from, and what character first uses it? (It's from The Litany Against Fear, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] tadiera).
6. "Key phrases: Hexapodia as the key insight"
7. "Being blowed up isn't walking around and drinking with your buddies dead. It's little bits being swept up by a janitor dead, and I don't think you're ready for that." [livejournal.com profile] angelophile - Xander, from Buffy The Vampire Slayer (tv series) Open Bonus Question: What episode? The Zeppo ([livejournal.com profile] angelophile)
8. "Remember, the enemy's gate is down." [livejournal.com profile] anomilygrace - Ender Wiggin (among other characters), Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card
9. "Questions are a burden to others, answers a prison for oneself." [livejournal.com profile] angelophile - Sign in The Prisoner tv series
10. "Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows." [livejournal.com profile] anomilygrace - Nineteen Eighty-Four, by George Orwell, Open Bonus Question: Which character?

Yeah, I know, most of mine are really easy (and I've probably used many on previous quote-guessing memes). Oh well. I tried to choose some of the less obvious phrases from my obvious sources.

Hints: More than half are from print, but some of the print ones are also movies.
