A sort of meme?

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

So one day I got emo and randomly decided, as a way to distract myself, to type up my favorite passages from Ian Fleming's Bond novels. In the course of this deed I learned I could apparently type up three pages of text in ten minutes, which was kind of scary. Anyway, the post is here, sans all my favorite passages, because not all of my books are earmarked, and not all of the books that are earmarks have earmarks on all my favorite passages.

The meme part comes in my curiosity to see other people's favorite passages from their pup's canon. What bits of canon do you like best? If you have a book canon and are feeling saucy, type it up! If it's a movie canon and you can find a clip, link to it! If it's a comic book and you have a panel, let's see it! Or you can just reply and talk about it if you don't feel like getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or doing things what are totally illegal.

I can accept this! I always approve of reading the books again.

....I will admit to having read the X-Wing books more times through than any other SW books, except maybe the Thrawn trilogy, and those were my introduction to the EU oh-so-many years ago.

Haha, I read the Thrawn crisis first as well, and was extremely wary of picking up the X-wing books, 'cause I thought they'd be all technical and ... boring.

GUESS I WAS WRONG.

[killitwithfire]

YOU WERE VERY WRONG.

The X-Wing books were responsible COMPLETELY for the string of fighter pilots I had in our tabletop games, ahaha. :D;;

It's 'cause pilots are the best.

[killitwithfire]

Yup.

(Although I am not playing a pilot in our current game. So. Um. IT IS DIFFERENT.)
