"Guess the book quote game" is for you to write a quote from a book....any book......and the next person has to guess what book it is from.
Ok I will start....

From a Warriors book?
"I know a mouse called Martin,
And a young un who's named Brome,
Captured by some vermin scouts
As he strayed from home.
So if you're out there list'ning,
I'll pause awhile and wait,
For I've been singing half the night
On this side of the gate."
Martin the Warrior
"Resa was sucked in"
Inkheart?

Mine was from Inheritance. I have no idea what yours is from W0NWILL.
"What do you mean?" he said. "Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?"
I see you're an X-Men fan, Rainshadow :) Awesome!
Anyway, your quote is from the Hobbit.

The Tell-Tale Heart?
"Not enough info makes for a lot of dead cats."
"Dead cats?"
"You know, 'Curiosity killed the cat.' And I have enough curiosity to start a feline genocide."
"Feline genocide?"
"Yeah. If you don't explain Apollo, the cat kingdom will crumble. Cats all over the world will suddenly plop down in unmoving masses of fur, their food will dry up in smelly chunks of fish, and when people call, 'Here, kitty kitty kitty,' no cats will come running; they'll just-"
"What's wrong?"
"I just realized . . . if all those things happened, no one would notice the difference."
Circles of Seven by Bryan Davis. I didn't know that one, had to look it up. It's in the jokes thread on this forum. ;)
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."
Pride and Prejudice! I love that book...
A person's a person no matter how small.
Can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make it a rule that a new quote can't be posted until the last quote is for sure guessed correctly? It's rather annoying to look back and see some quotes that were guessed vaguely or incorrectly. Of course, I might be the only one annoyed with that...
Horton hears a who? I think?
"Stay gold, Ponyboy. Stay gold."
Easy one lol.
The Outsiders.
"Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing?"
*thinks back to college class on ancient and religious texts* is that from the Bible? I've never been to church once in my life so Idk if that's correct.
"It's partly true, too, but it isn't all true. People always think something's all true."
I just looked that previous one up, it's from Psalms, apparently.
The Catcher in the Rye!
"Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again."
Catcher in the Rye is right, one of my favorites.
I don't know yours unfortunately. Ill look it up but won't cheat just yet though ;)
It's from one of my favourite books. They're opening the musical on Broadway soon. :)
NOW I know haha, it's Rebecca. Ray's sister loves musicals so she's always talking about stuff like that.
"For the pride of trace and trail was his, and sick unto death, he could not bear that another dog should do his work."
From one of my all-time, very favorite classic books.
Haha, it sounds like Ray's sister and I would get on very well.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say that quote is from those books DanielofRedwall likes... the ones with the wolves... The Call of the Wild, or something?
;D yes, exactly. Daniel has excellent taste as well.
You didn't add a quote ;)
I didn't! Oops.
Haaaaa, good guess, me. Maybe I should give them a read.
"It was a pleasure to burn."
Oh, Fahrenheit 451. I love that book. I did a huge paper on it at college when I went.
"Time is an illusion. Lunchtime, doubly so."

Aaaah Terry Pratchett! Good Omens.

Yessss. Good Omens is one of my favorites. ;D The other quote I considered posting from it was the kraken stirring and ten billion sushi dinners crying out for vengeance. XD
Quote from: Flandor on August 10, 2012, 02:59:52 AM
;D yes, exactly. Daniel has excellent taste as well.
Why thank you. :) And I agree, "Farenheit 451"'s a good one. I like Bradbury's short story "All Summer In a Day" as well. And SH, Douglas Adams is amazing!
That previous one is from "The Black Cat" by none other than Edgar Allan Poe. I know the story, but I did have to search that one up.
"Tell me again 'bout the rabbits, George."
(Not an exact quote, I don't have the book on me, but it's close enough.)
Of Mice and Men :)
"Go to the rats."
The Secret of Nimh?
"Sometimes it is only a True Friend who knows what we mean when we try to speak.
Somebody who has spent a lot of time with us, and listens carefully to what we are trying to say, and tries to understand."
Sorry, I had to cheat there. It's "How To Train Your Dragon".
"He loved Big Brother."
Actually, it's from How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse. Lol, it's from the How to Train Your Dragon series though. Yours is from Nineteen Eighty-Four?
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
Fellowship of the Ring <3
"I knew I could do it this time, because I'd already done it. Does that make sense?"
"Prisoner of Azkaban".
"If a rabbit gave advice and the advice wasn't accepted, he immediately forgot it, and so did everyone else."
Watership Down, I'm thinking.
"Badger hates Society, and invitations, and dinner, and all that sort of thing."
You're right. And that one was, I believe, "The Wind In the Willows".
"Quoth the raven, 'Nevermore'."
Correct :)
Yours is from "The Raven" by Poe, one of my very favorites.
"If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear!"
Frankenstein?
"But remember the old saying, It ain't the uniform that counts, 'tis the warrior who wears it, eh!"
Correct. Yours is... a Redwall book, I'm quite sure, but for the life of me I don't remember which. The Long Patrol perhaps?
"Yes, and I'm sure the arena will be full of bags of flour I can chuck at people."
HUNGER GAMES!!!!!! I knew that the moment I read that phrase! I love that book! And mine was from Eulalia. You were close!
"Friend. Lover. Victor. Enemy. Fiancee. Target. Mutt. Neighbor. Hunter. Tribute. Ally."
mockingjay
"Each boat has it is own sail"
"An' Dad's nailed up the door, wot a lovely welcome home,

@Warrior: High Rhulain?
@Psybox: The Wide Window?
"If you have ever lost a loved one, then you know exactly how it feels. And if you have not, then you cannot possibly imagine it."
The Bad Beginning
"Anyone can steal a cloak, mouse"
I'm mad I didn't get the Wide Window one. I love that series.
Um, some Redwall book? Not sure. :/
"Quest for the sword,
in moonlight streaming forth,
when day's first hour,
reflects the north."
Redwall!
"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen."
"Nineteen Eighty-Four" again. :)
"Two households, both alike in dignity,
(In fair Verona, where we lay our scene),
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."
(We're doing this at school. I can appreciate it, but I'm not really sure if I enjoy it.)
Romeo and Juliet. Not my favorite Shakespeare but it's not too bad. Mercutio makes it worth reading.
"They were the last people you would expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense."
That sounds so familiar... Gah, I'm going to have to search this.
*Searches*
Of course! It's "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's (Sorcerer's) Stone"! It's referring to the Dursleys! I knew it sounded familiar!
"Life itself was meat. Life lived on life. There were the eaters and the eaten. The law was: EAT OR BE EATEN."

Ooh ooh that's gotta be Jack London. Call of the Wild, maybe?
"Between me and the moonlight flitted a great bat, coming and going in great, whirling circles."
Dracula?
"Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed."
Oh, that's a C.S. Lewis one... I can't remember the book. Ah, The Magician's Nephew!
"It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived."
Close, Flandor, it was "White Fang".
Lily, yours was "To Kill a Mockingbird"!
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
Dickens, a Tale of Two Cities :)
"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast!"
That sounds like something a Hobbit would say. ;) Am I right? Is it a Tolkien book? I'm not going to search this one, just let me know if I'm right.
"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
Not right yet, Daniel, but give it another go if you like. It is an old book by a British author.
Yours was from Animal Farm, correct?
Correct. "Animal Farm". Great book.
I've got no clue. I'm going to have to search this.
*Searches*
Lewis Carroll! "Through the Looking Glass"! That makes sense. :)
Your turn!
"I am a greaser. I am a JD and a hood. I blacken the name of our fair city. I beat up people. I rob gas stations. I am a menace to society. Man, do I have fun!"
The Outsiders?

"A BOOK? WHAT D'YOU WANNA FLAMIN' BOOK FOR? WE'VE GOT A LOVELY TELLY WITH A 12-INCH SCREEN AND NOW YA WANNA BOOK?"
Matilda?
You can't win. You know that, don't you? It doesn't matter if you whip us, you'll still be where you were before, at the bottom. And we'll still be the lucky ones at the top with all the breaks. It doesn't matter. Greasers will still be Greasers and Socs will still be Socs. It doesn't matter
The Outsiders?
"He fainted. Then he came to and remembered what happened and fainted again."
No idea.
'Yes – he says he's going to blow up the city. Blow it to matchsticks, if I know him.'
Mine was from a book called Dragonspell.
mine was a book called gaslight geezers.
"We've lived one season too long."
That is the heartbreaking moment during "Loamhenge", I believe.
"You no longer know what is for sure and what is not. What is truth and what are lies. What is real and what is false. That is being moon blinked."
finally one I know! That would be one of the first "Guardians of Ga'hoole" books.
This should be easy, I think. "It spun faster and faster then everything was still. Absolutely still."
That possibly a "Harry Potter" book? Maybe during Harry apparating with Dumbledore during "Half-Blood Prince"? Or when he takes the portkey during "Goblet of Fire"?
"I seem to be having tremendous difficulty with my lifestyle."
Nope, it's in every single "Magic Tree house" book. ;D
I don't know.
Hitchhiker's guide!!
"Although, as boys, we had been even intimate associates, yet I really knew very little of my friend. His reserve had always been excessive and habitual."

"I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will."

Hmm, Pearls of Lutra? :P
"Whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you."
I believe Watership Down?
YOU SHALL NOT PASS! Where is that quote from? Hint:easy
Hmm... that's a toughy! :P The Fellowship of the Ring?
This is going to be a really easy one, but this is just a beautiful line in my opinion.
"There will be three cats, kin of your kin, with the power of the stars in their paws. They will find a fourth, and the battle between light and dark will be won. A new leader will rise from the shadows of his death, and the Clans will survive beyond the memories of his memories. This is how it has always been, and how it will always be."
One of the Warriors books?
"It was the best of times, it was worst of times."

"It's fun to talk about heaven, about the throne of God and Jesus and Pop and the daughter we thought we had lost but will meet again someday. But it's not fun to talk about how we got there."
Heaven is for Real?
"And the last thought he had that morning as he closed his eyes was: I hope the tornado hit the moose."
I have to admit, I had to google that one because I thought it was hilarious. Hatchet by Gary Paulsen.
"Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book."
I had to Google that one. :( Is it The Fault in Our Stars?
"I was not a natural. . . . This is the story of becoming . . . the Hard Way."
Yes, The Fault in Our Stars! It was just voted Time Magazine's fiction book of the year. :)
Yours was from How to Train Your Dragon?
"Sometimes success demands a certain refined insanity."
Like the quote, but had to Google it. The Keeping Place.

The Hobbit. ;D I didn't even need to look that up.
"Strange, he thought, how seldom people tend to look up."
The Ruins of Gorlan by John Flanagan?
It's a Ranger's apprentice book, though
"My child, I like that, thank ye, my father."
(It's a Redwall book)
Romsca speaking to Abbot Durral as she was dying.
"Drufo! Sling that spear away, swim for the ship!"
Triss!
"If you throw up," Kles said unsympathetically, "remember not to face the wind."
...I have no idea. :(
"You are a fridge with wings. We are ballet dancers."
(Guess which series my mind is on right now? ;D )
Max-something ride
"for narnia and the north"
Hmm, The Horse and His Boy?
"It would take me a whole season to tell you what my dad always says!"
Hmm...High Rhulain or Marlfox or...Lord Brocktree?? :o
It's a Redwall book, though, right?
"Dapple says they smell wrong. It's... sort of the way a rabid dog smells wrong."
The Eye of the World, though I had to Google it.

A stout lance corporal chuckled. "Hawhaw, that's the stuff to give him, cookie, you tell the blighter!"
He withered under the sergeant's icy stare. "Ye've never tasted my lance corporal pie, have ye? One more remark from you an' I'll send a slice home to yore mother!"

"Why do you need to fly so much?" she asked.

i agree! anyway the answer to your quote is Horton hears a who! that ones easy! i collect Dr Seuss books!!
which book is this song from?
(the badger lords name is ___ out,so its not to easy !!)
Oh, 'twas all in the summertime,
Our hearts did sadly grieve,
The searats stole up in the night,
And with our babes did leave,
Full four and thirty little shrews,
Were taken to be slaves,
To live in misery or refuse,
And die in watery graves,
But then a mighty warrior
Did come along our way;
We knew what fate had sent him for,
When these words he did say:
'Come follow me down to the sea,
Across the mountain track,
And i will set your young ones free;
I'll bring those babes back.'
And then with mighty chunks of rock,
He dammed the great broadstream,
And gave those foul searats a shock,
Which caused them all to scream.
He came with death held in his paw,
Which no rat born could face.
Oh woe to those who break the law,
Of __________.
Take warning all you bold searats,
Who plough the raging main,
Steal not our babes,and not come near
Our peaceful shores again,For fear you meet the Badger Lord,
He of the _______________,
For you'll meet death once you have met,
The Warrior with the ________.
Guess!!! (i did NOT make this song up!!!)

The Bridge to Neverland?
I know I didn't post that book quote. But yes, that is from The Bridge to Neverland. It's a great book, you should read it.
@Jukka you need to post a new book quote after you post.
"My dear fellow," said Sherlock Holmes as we sat on either side of the fire in his lodgings at Baker Street, "life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent.
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!"

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.

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

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!

"It is the world, my boy, all the world in ink and blood, vellum and parchment, leather and hide. It is the world, and it is yours to save or lose."
That's something from the Inkheart series, I can tell :P
...I think...

I'm going to say no more quotes until we know for sure what the previous quote was
*Bump*
I'm not sure. That sounds familiar, though.
