Like the inn thread, except purely for your favourite malazan quotes.
Just post any nice ones.
Answers should probably be the name of who said it(and who they said it too or whatever, is cool), and the book.
Start with this:
"'To the mothers regret' he grated between blows 'was Light granted birth...To her dismay...she saw too late...its corruption...'"

Unfortunately not. Just because the last one was Iron Bars does not mean they'll all be
Now it's time to predict mine. You must also put forth a quote with your response.

Oh shit so it is

And that bloody D'Avore. I wondered where I remembered it from

I think the witness one is karsa no? DHG again would be my guess, but it could be a lot of others.

It's certainly not Karsa, I don't know whether to give hints but it's definitely not too hard.

Baruk/Derudan or one of the cabal near the end of GotM?
Man I need to re-read the books. Badly.
"'There is a fallen soldier to whom I would...pay my respects...'"
Cross-post: Yeah it could be Kruppe. In fact, yeah, Kruppe beginning of TTH, at the fire, isnt it? Well done BeLeG.

Is that from Tavore's speech to the Bonehunters on their way to Lether?
So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

We need some order in this thread...
Remember we need to give the book too.
Anomander Rake in Memories of Ice.
Tavore to the Bonehunters in Reaper's Gale.
Quick Ben in Reaper's Gale to Onrack and Trull (I believe this is correct anyway).
My quote is: 'You look exhausted, L'oric. I suggest you return to your tent and get some rest. I shall have need for you on the morrow'.
With this try to deduce who would say something like that, and the book, and go with your feeling.

Half right, it was in HoC. Your turn to produce a quote.
