oh crap, sorry kvetch, you're right, it was gil galad.

I guess he gets the quote?

If not, I'll re-guess for the sake of the rules.

The Parafaith War - The Eco-Tech Dialogues

Post by **Kvetch** » Wed May 05, 2004 11:01 am

Gil Galad gets it (post one anyway if more than 24 hours elapse.)

apart from the willingness to take punishment, are there any other cold quotes?

Yes, MK got the Parafaith War part, but the book was the Eco-Tech Dialogues. Soo... I guess Gil gets to post next? Or MK?

One must strike before it is expected...or where such an attack is not expected, and it cannot hurt if one strikes where a loss may not be regretted totally by the ruler of a neighbouring land.

give the two speakers and the book

I think actually it's from the Corean Chronicles series...sorry I have to run off to the office but if that is "warmer" maybe it will get things moving in the right direction.

Gil galad · Post by **Gil galad** » Fri May 07, 2004 5:10 pm

warmer but still just as cold if that makes sense

MidasKnight · Post by **MidasKnight** » Fri May 07, 2004 6:31 pm

Gil galad · Post by **Gil galad** » Sat May 08, 2004 1:17 am

torybear · Post by **torybear** » Sat May 08, 2004 10:04 am

"But there was only one kind of human. Sometimes that kind was man, sometimes woman, sometimes child, but for all the names, they were the same. Some were taller, and some were shorter, or thicker or thinner, and some spoke Anglas, and some Nippin, and some Mandi. But they were the same. That is, they all thought in the old-fashioned manner, and their thoughts stayed inside there heads."

Good Luck!

(not reading the rest of the posts...forgive me) I love that writing. That's the kind of writing I love. I've forgotten Adiamante. I did like it quite a bit. I need to read that again apparently. I should ask this on the question topic list, but where does Adiamante fall in the timeline with the scifi series(the other scifi's like Parafaith War, etc)? I think there's potential there for some sequels

ok my last quote was from Shadowsinger, JerGlien and Belmar talking.

instead of hunting out the cold quotes ill just pass it in for the first person who grabs it, so long as i dont have to miss around before i can bid again

Ok, how 'bout:

"One cannot slander a toad" ... "They live in the mud."

Speaker, book, scenario.
