Princess Bride
by William Goldman
'"When I was your age, television was called books."'

'"Has it got any sports in it?"
"Fencing. Fighting. Torture, Poison. True Love. Hate. Revenge. Giants. Hunters.
"Fencing. Fighting. Torture, Poison. True Love. Hate. Revenge. Giants. Hunters.
Bad men. Good men. Beautifulest ladies. Snakes. Spiders.
Beasts of all natures and descriptions. Pain. Death. Brave men.
Coward men. Strongest men. Chases. Escapes.
Lies. Truths. Passion. Miracles."'

"Who can know when this world is going to change?
Who can tell before it happens, that every prior experience, all the years,
were a preparation for ... nothing."

'"True love is the best thing in the world, except for cough drops.
Everybody knows that."'

'“Let me get this thing straight, Inigo--we had SCRAPS for dinner?
I'M in YOUR fantasy and the best you can come up with is SCRAPS?"
She turned toward the door then.
"You have no chance of winning my heart.”'
