TWO THINGS.
1)
1. Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them. - CATCH-22
2. We will not pay for our freedom with a single promise of silence. - THE THREE MUSKETEERS
3. The most terrible of motives and the most unanswerable of responses: Because. LES MISERABLES
4. Everyone suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues, and this is mine: I am one of the few honest people that I have ever known. THE GREAT GATSBY
5. We've got to have rules and obey them. After all, we're not savages. We're English, and the English are best at everything. - LORD OF THE FLIES
6. You are our captain and our banner. The Dark Lord has Nine. But we have One, mightier than they: the White Rider. He has passed through the fire and the abyss, and they shall fear him. We will go where he leads. - Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - guessed by![[insanejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/ij-userinfo.gif)
macguffin!
7. You are too young to understand it ... but sometimes the Bible in the hand of one man is worse than a whiskey bottle in the hand of--oh, of your father. - TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
8. It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up. - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - guessed bygoodpilgrim!
9. They said they would rather be outlaws a year in Sherwood Forest than President of the United States forever. - THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER
10. To lose one parent, Mr Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness. - The Importance of Being Earnest - guessed bygoodpilgrim!
11. The flies have conquered the flypaper. - THE MOON IS DOWN
12. Nay, faith, let me not play a woman; I have a beard coming. - A Midsummer Night's Dream - guessed bygoodpilgrim!
13. Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever. - The Godfather - guessed bymacguffin!
14. Land is the only thing in the world that amounts to anything, for ’tis the only thing in this world that lasts. - Gone With the Wind - guessed bygemius!
15. I insist upon my rooms being beautiful! I can’t abide ugliness in factories! In we go, then! But do be careful, my dear children! Don’t lose your heads! Don’t get overexcited! Keep very calm! - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - guessed bymacguffin!
CLEARLY YOU ALL FAILED AT MY SOCIAL EXPERIMENT. Kidding. I was actually just glad people got some at all. Aside from the Lord of the Rings one, which I knew Sunni was going to get before I even pastede it on yey it on the page.
