meme: quotes!

[fates_jaye]

We have not done this meme since May 2011, so it's as good a time as any to bring it back out again, right? With all our new snarky characters since then and new books that some of us might have gotten in those 10 months that demand to be quoted...

Am I stealing this bit from weetuskenraider? Idek at this point.
Here's how this works: tag in (under the appropriate journal) with canon quotes from your characters. No (or little) context, just the quotes -- individually if you want, or several in one comment.

People can tag in to those threads and either guess the context/situation, or ask you what it's about, or just comment on the quotes. This way we can all have a little amusement, dork about our canon a little, and maybe get in a little canon pimping on the side.

As always, don't forget to keep checking in and see what new stuff's gone up!

“Thanks, Father. You’ve been very helpful. Now I know that I was raised by an insane woman and I never knew it.”

“Yes, he’s a charmer, all right.”
“Peter-”
“It’s not a popularity contest, Father.”
“No, it’s a loyalty contest. You accomplish exactly as much as the people who serve you decide you’ll accomplish, and nothing more. They are your power, these public servants you employ, and he’s winning their loyalty away from you.
“Superficially, perhaps."
“For most people, the superficial is all there is. They act on the feelings of the moment. They like him better than you.”
“There’s always somebody that people like better.”

“Besides, saving you means saving the world.”
“Right."
“You’re the only hope."
“Then good luck, world.”
“I do believe that that was almost a prayer. Don’t you think so, Theresa? I think Peter said a prayer.”
“Yeah, why not. Good luck, world. Amen.”
