Hey HiHers!
I kind of had a panic attack yesterday when I realized that I wanted to have my contest end on the 20th so I could get points in. Bah. So I'm extending it to the 27th. (Cutting it close, I know.)
Okay, so what is our next contest, you ask?? It's a QUOTE HUNT!
[x] Under the cut are 10 quotes from books, poems, epics, etc.
[x] Find the AUTHOR and TITLE of the work and post it as a comment to this entry.
[x] Points will be standard (50/40/30/10) - first person in with the correct answers gets 50 and so on. 10 pts for participating! :D
[x] Feel free to use Google or another search engine to help if you get stuck. :)
[x] Have fun! Contest ends on the 27th of December!
[x] NOTE: I understand some of these may be quoted further in movies or television, but I want the ORIGINAL author. You're looking for a book, play, poem, something along those lines.
1. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth.
2. The venom clamours of a jealous woman Poisons more deadly than a mad dog's tooth.
3. I had the story, bit by bit, from various people, and, as generally happens in such cases, each time it was a different story.
4. Winter lies too long in country towns; hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen.
5. How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads, to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.
6. "The school is not quite deserted," said the Ghost. "A solitary child, neglected by his friends, is left there still."
7. Any mummery will cure if the patient's faith is strong in it.
8. Call me Ishmael.
9. Vanity working on a weak head, produces every sort of mischief.
10. I am never afraid of what I know.
Remember: if you get stuck, don't worry about it. I purposely chose random quotes to make you HUNT for them! :) Have fun! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! :D
Also, after Christmas we'll have a new banner contest! Have a great holiday! :D
