Uh, Sherlock Holmes, obviously. But I'm not sure which story/novel.


Guess this quote:

"O mother dear mother O mother come quick,
Calamity lackaday bring a stout stick,
There's hares on the mountain they're rough'n'big,
A cuttin' up capers an' dancin' a jig!

They wear rusty medals an' raggy old clothes,
There's one with an apple stuck fast to his nose
Another's got seashells all tied to his back,
There's hares on the mountain alas and alack!"

"O daughter my daughter now listen to me,
Such rowdy wild pawsteps I never did see,
Run into the house quick and cover your eyes,
An' I'll give those wild ruffians such a surprise!"

A hare in a frock coat so fine an' so long,
Scraped on a small fiddle a' banged a big gong
He seized the poor other an' gave a loud cry,
"Let's warm up our paws with a reel you an' I!"

"O mother sweet mother oh may I look now?"
"Come stir y'stuumps daughter an' look anyhow,"
As she whirled around the good mother did call,
"There's a handsome one here with no partner at all!

So batter that drum well an' kick up your paws,
I'm reelin' with mine an' yore jiggin' with yours,
A leapin' an' twirlin' as cares fly away,
Those hares on the mountain can call any day!"

The Long Patrol I love that song.
I am back... sort of... maybe... Hi?

"Oh, look out, it's gone dark. Time for bed, you lot!"
Sounds of merriment rang out from the happy creatures on the mountain, so loud that a pair of seagulls , building a nest on the rocks, squawked complainingly.
The birds had come back to the western shores.

Unimaginative

Er..Uh...No idea... I'm so bad at this.  :'(

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

There are many with that one.   ;)

Hey you! What? Expecting a great quote or some heart-warming poem? Too bad, my signature is just boring. Stop reading it. Stop it. Why are you still reading it?

Is it from Lord Brocktree?

@Norham: Not sure where that's from.

That sounds about right!

How about this one...

"I am one, my liege, whom the vile blows and buffets of this world have so incensed that I am reckless what I do to spite the world." :D (< smiley added)

Hint: Shakespeare, look it up. Oh, and identify who says it! :D You'll probably find it with a quick google search

You're joking, right? @Jukka You're right!

That's something from the Inkheart series, I can tell :P

Nope, 'fraid not

I'm going to say no more quotes until we know for sure what the previous quote was

I'm not sure. That sounds familiar, though.
