Favourite Quotes From Remnant (Remnant Spoilers)

I haven't got Remnant yet, so I feel a bit silly posting this. Oh well. Just post all your favourite quotes from the book!

 

Ones I quoted in the review;

?These are indeed strange times.? - Luke Skywalker

CONVERSATION BETWEEN PELLAEON AND VORRIK WHATSISFACE (vong commander)

?-Will but delay the inevitable?. (blah blah)?

Pellaeon: ?Maybe I?m missing something, Vorrik, but I?m not seeing any evidence of this great plan of yours. We?re destroying your yammosks; we?ve killed your spies; we?re taking back those you thought were captives. You don?t have the muscle to take this planet, let alone the others. Your threats are as empty as your boasts are shallow.?

?You will eat those words when-?

?Empty!?

?-We turn your abominations into slag and-?

?Empty!?

?-Grind every trace of you into the dust from which you were born!?

?Empty, Vorrik! It?s time for you to make good on your promises, Commander; either destroy us or get out!?

?By the gods of my people, infidel, I promise that you will choke on those words!?

?Maybe one day, Vorrik, but not today. You really should have thought twice about this gambit of yours - especially if you didn?t have the resources to pull it off in the first place. We have no intentions of surrendering - not now, not ever. You may win the occasional battle against us, Vorrik, but the Empire will always strike back. That I promise you. You tell Shimrra from me that if he wants to get the job done, then he?s going to have to send a bigger fleet - and a more competent commander to oversee it.?

Pellaeon was *superb!*

 

Han: "Whose orders? I'm still the captain of this ship!"
Leia: "You go on and keep believing that, dear."
Han: "What's that supposed to mean?"

Leia (to Han): "Don't tell me. You've got a bad feeling about this place, right?"

Jacen: "What happened to the war?"
Pellaeon: "It went away."

 

I liked that latter quote too, DP!

. . .

"Skywalker, you're getting more dangerous the older you get. I hope I'm not around to see what you're going to be like when you get to be my age." - Pellaeon

. . .

Luke: "I hope Ben turns out to be smarter than his father. Or at least more perceptive."

Jacen: "I'm not sure that would be possible."

. . .

Captain Yage: "So at last I meet the legendary Skywalkers. I've certainly heard a lot about you."

Mara: "All untrue, I'm sure."

Yage: "I hope not. Gilad speaks very highly of the both of you."

. . .

 

Cool.

 

(page 62)

"I shall take you to the others, I swear! I sear it on the name of-"

When I read this line, I yelled out to myself THE PRECIOUS!

 

I was thinking the same thing Gatherer. Wierd isn't it? I guess great minds just think alike.

Definately has to be:

"You may win the occasional battle against us, Vorrik, but the Empire will always strike back."

 

Vorrik to Pellaeon:

"Straight up, now tell me, is it gonna be you and me forever?"

 

Nom Anor to Shoon-mi

"From now on" he said to his first two disciples, "you shall call me Yu'Shaa"
"Yu'Shaa?" he echoed. "The Prophet"?
Nom Anor smiled, nodding "The Prophet".

Hunt the moment

Nom Anor's thoughts concerning life and death He had owned a few people his life before. He owed no one a death.

Saba thinking about Tekli: It seemed strange to her to be comforted by a creature that looked more like a meal than an equal.

Those are some of my favorite ones that have yet to be mentioned.

 

"Actually, you probably did me a favor. I'm not very good at this sort of thing."
"Really?" Luke said. "You surprise me."
"In fact, I'm pretty dreadful."
"Well, I'm afraid you've probably inherited that from your mother's side of the family," Luke said. "That includes me."
"You seem to have done all right for yourself, Uncle."
"Oh, better than all right," he said. "But it took a lot of trial and error along the way. Getting a relationship to work is almost impossible-even without people like me getting in the way. There's no right or wrong way to tread; the rules are made up as you go along and can change without warning." He smiled. "Trust me when I say that it makes being a Jedi look easy."

 

I can't remember the exact quote, but Jaina says to Jag that her father told her never to let anyone call you scruffy.

I laughed at that one.

 

Great thread lightsaber_wielder!

dp4m and J_K_Dart beat me to my favorites!

 

Gonna have to go with Han telling Assistant Primate Thrum to open the door or he'll be using his head as a battering ram....that one got a chuckle out of me. Han didnt get all of the threat out before Leia cut it, but it was obvious that's were he was going with it.

 

Empty Vorrik!

 

This is great!

I haven't yet read the book, but I LOVE the "Empire always strikes back." quote.!

 

Since when is Vorrik paula abduel?
