Inconceivable!   :O
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

I ain't got time to bleed.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Ah, but the strawberries! That's… that's where I had them. They laughed and made jokes, but I proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, and with geometric logic, that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox did exist.

You people! If there isn't a movie about it, it's not worth knowing, is it?

I believe that one was "I think of a man, then I take away reason and accountability."

Some of my favorites:
"He chose . . . poorly."
"Please excuse the crudity of this model . . ."
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

Holden: If the buzz is any indicator, that movie's gonna make some huge bank.
 Jay: What buzz?
Holden: The Internet buzz.
 Jay: What the *expletive deleted*ck is the Internet?
 Holden: The Internet is a communication tool used the world over where people can come together to bitch about movies and share pornography with one another
