3. "All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."
— J.R.R. Tolkien (The Fellowship of the Ring)

Not really. I've made inappropriate suggestions and frequently pushed for nudity. But I've never asked you out on a real date."

"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen."

Wonderful list, I especially love number 6. Harry Potter, Hitchhiker and Tolkien made my list too, though not the same quotes.
I also listed a quote from The Fellowship of the Ring - Super cool! It seems I need to re-read HP books again since I completely left out any of those amazing quotes! Great lines!
Yes! "I don't know. I didn't listen." Gotta love that one!

Love the HP quotes, Fred and George are classic. And another Hitchiker's Guide quote! I've got one of those on my list, too :D
