Here is where you can put awesome quotes said by everyone's favorite Forgotten Realms characters....if you put one down, please say who said it.


Here's a couple....


“Do you not understand? To lose is to die! You may win a thousand fights, but you can only lose one.”
-Zaknafein Do’Urden

“With each kill, I grow wiser, and with added wisdom, I grow stronger.”
-Artemis Entreri

“There is no beast more dangerous to hunt than a mage forewarned-save one: a human mage forewarned.”
-Antarn the Sage

“When he grows older and those eyes pierce you so, remember, on you life, that he is your brother.”
-Matron Malice

“The strength of any ranger is wisdom, Drizzt. A ranger understands himself, his enemies, and his friends. You thought me impaired; else you never would have attempted so brash a maneuver as to jump over me. But I understood you and anticipated the move…. does your head still hurt?”
-Montolio DeBrouchee

“Ye have enemies? Good, good – that means ye’ve stood up for something, sometime in thy life.”
-Elminster

“Death is the ultimate equalizer, for it strikes low the peasant and the lord, the rich and the poor, the good and the evil. They say that justice is blind. Not so. Death is.”
-Elminster

---------------------------------------------------------
“Your hunger blurs your ability. We have both looked into a mirror this night. Perhaps you did not enjoy the sight it showed you.”
-Drizzt Do’Urden

“You have not won yet!”
-Artemis Entreri

“Perhaps not, but you have lost many years ago.”
-Drizzt Do’Urden

I love the quotes on the various breeds of giant space hampster from the Complete Book of Gnomes and Halflings. No, it's actually from the first MC.

From normal giant space hampsters came these monstrosities, along with what their creators thought of them:

Camivorous Flying Giant Space Hamster: A "regrettable if
understandable line of inquiry" led to this bat-winged version
(MV 9, R 24 (8); bites for 3d4 points of damage, two claws for
2d4 points of damage; Morale 15).

Two-Headed Lernaean Bombardier Giant Space Hamster:
'Well, we're certainly not likely to make this mistake again or at
least not more than once again anyway." Each head can make a
normal biting attack, it regenerates wounds at 3 hit points per
round (but cannot regenerate lost body parts), and once per day it
can belch so loudly that anyone within 30 feet must roll a success-
ful saving throw vs. breath weapon or be stunned (unable to at-
tack, defend, or move) for ld4+1 rounds.

Fire-Breathing Phase Doppleganger Giant Space Hamster:
"We completely fail to see why everyone is so upset, especially
since biology is such an inexact science and for every step we take
forward there must be two steps backward but anyway we said
we were sorry and we'd like our funding back so that we can pay our bail and go home." Also note that this one is called the "FBPDGSH"

Let's look back on Minsc from BGII, the best character in all the realms.


Minsc will lead with blade and boot! Boo will take care of the details.

What!? I hit to no effect!? I need a bigger sword...

Quake at the piercing stare of my hampster and change your way's!

Ahhhh, we are all heroes. You and Boo and I. Hampsters and rangers everywhere, rejoice!


If no one else remembers, Minsc is a ranger from Rashamen who has taken one to many blows to the head, and is now obsessed with Boo, his hampster, who he thinks is a miniature-giant-space-hampster. Apparently Hoondatha remembers him...

And remember...
What you need, Sali Dalib got! -Sali Dalib, from The Halflings Gem

"Of course it's not an ordinary dragon! Ordinary dragons don't collect heaps of human skulls when there is a perfectly good pile of treasure sitting there for the taking!"

or something like that :P

got it from the new "Best of the Realms" book. I think its a deleted quote from the story "Elminster and the MageFair"

This is not a quote, it's a poem I took from a known game, but I liked it so much that I decided to write it here:

"I can see what you see not,
Vision milky than eyes rot.
When you turn they will be gone
whispering their hidden song
Then you see what cannot be:
shadows move where light should be!
Out of darkness, out of mind
cast down to the Halls of the Blind"

"Did you see the size of that chicken?!?"

- a player in a game after the druid miscast a speak with animals on a chicken and ended up with an Large-sized, awakened, and violent chicken that mauled the druid and then pranced away.

So now, whenever anything that is hard to believe happens in the game, my players qoute "did you see the size of that chicken."

"Abandone all hope, ye who enter here." From the back cover of a dragon magazine regarding an advertisement for undermountain.

This was lifted from Dante's Inferno, roughly:

Before me, things create were none
save things eternal, and eternal I endure
All hope abandon, ye who enter here!

One ring to rule them all...
One ring to find them...
One ring to bring them all...
And in the darkness bind them
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie.

Ah yes, I remember reading that passage for the first time 5 years ago. Cracked me up (then again, I was 8).
