Quotes
There is a nice blog entry here at the New York Times website about passages in great books that really sum up a work for you. The writer asked his readers to respond with their favorite passages. There is some good stuff there. Anybody got any favorite passages or quotes to share? I'm doing this about five minutes before we close and will add one or two tomorrow.

Well, there's that bit at the beginnig of Small Gods, about evolution and how one day toroises will learn to fly...
I read that at a meeting once!
As for me, what immediately springs to mind is this one quote from The Sparrow, by Mary Doria Russell, but I'm too lazy to look it up right now.
Various other Pratchett, Connie Willis, and Ursula K. LeGuin quotes are awesome as well.
