Oh boy!  I've been thinking about doing this for a while now, but 
I never got around to it....

	And my favorite quote from the same story:


Akane:  (With a look of pure rage on her face.  Shouts at Kodachi)
You crazy bitch!  You hurt the sweetest, most harmless person in the whole
world, my sister.  I'm going to rip you apart!

	-- John Biles, Ranma 1/2: Putting Your Heart in the Right Place


	A couple of quotes I thought were notably *bad*:


She was Sylia Stingray!  She was calm, controlled, always and forver!  She
wasn't this simpering love-person, who even now yearned for her lover's
touch, her lover's kiss, and the pleasure only a lover could bring!

"On that St. Crispians day [sic] in France when King Harry the 5th [sic]
took the field at Agincourt, it must of [sic] seemed like forever from
sun-up to sun-down." 

	-- (Priss) Glenn Hough, Bubblegum Crusade


	(Priss making Shakespeare references?  I don't *think* so...)

	Other quotes I enjoyed:


Three of the new 99-Series construction boomers were tearing up a
dive on the edge of the territories.  The patrons of the "nightclub"
were understandably distressed at this extracurricular demolition,
and were running around the neighborhood in a panic when the ADP
vans pulled up.  Jeena saw one guy trying to hold his shirt down
over himself to counter a serious lack of pantage, shivering in the
early spring rain.  Must have been a bit disconcerting to have Big
Blue bust in while you were putting your rented S-type through its
rather predictable paces ("Oh, NO sempai!"  "Don't!"  "Please, I've
never done anything like that!"  "Stop, please-- OH!"  "Oh!-- oh,
sempai, YES!!!!"), Jeena thought.  Kinda like being caught in the act
by your date's extremely protective older brother.

Kei: Wow.  I had no idea guys like you existed.  I thought all males
were slaves to their lusts.

Damien: [smiling] We are.  Some just have kinder masters than others.
And one or two of us rebel every once in a while.

Ayukawa: [Softly]  Kasuga-kun?

Kasuga:  Hai?

[Ayukawa pats the ground beside her.  Kasuga hesitates, then sits 
down there.  Ayukawa reaches down and intertwines her hand in 
Kasuga's.]

Ayukawa: [Seriously]  What's wrong?

Kasuga: [Startled, he puts his free hand behind his head]  What 
makes you think something's wrong?

Ayukawa:  I've known you for several years now, and when you get 
really clumsy, it's usually because something's bothering you.

[They reach the end of the warehouse.  One of the panels in front 
of them is loose and flapping with the gentle evening breeze.]

Yuko:  [Looking over Ayukawa's shoulder.]  What now?  [Gives her 
the chain.]

Ayukawa:  [Ties it to the steel supports in the warehouse roof, 
but the chain comes up about 5 meters short from the ground.]  
Jump!

Yoko:  [Look of fear.]  Down there?  You gotta be s***ting me!

Ikemoto:  [Hisses.]  Watch your mouth!

Yoko:  [Look of disbelief.]  Watch my mouth?!?  You gotta be 
s***ting me!

        Ben fled to the lounge and immediately began slugging down
coffee at a prodigious rate.  Nene was already there.
        "Uh, Gryph, I thought you didn't like coffee?"
        "Huh, oh, no, I hate it."
        "So why are you drinking it?"
        "Uh...  Just to confirm the fact that I still hate it."
        "You've had about a pot and a half so far."
        "I know, I really hate it a lot."
        Nene looked at him like he was mad.

        "Admiral MegaZone...whose other names, should they exist, are
lost to history--like who the fuck was Doctor Pepper anyway?--on
behalf of the entire GENOM Combined Fleet, I hereby offer my
unconditional surrender.  I hope this ushers in a new era of peace 'n
harmony, and clean socks for everyone, or something like that.  Could
someone direct me...to...someplace warm and soft...and kinda
quiet-like?"  Having managed to get those words at least 3/4 out,
[Iczer-2] fell to the floor.

The Tendos, Genma, and Shampoo stared at front door.  Their heads
swivelled together to look at the kitchen door of the Nekohanten.  Then
they all looked back at front door.  Nabiki cleared her throat.  "Oh
my!" she said.

    "OK, now let's go for it!" Priss was shouting into the microphone.  The AV
struck up the vamp to 'Mad Machine'. "Here's something I wrote myself!"
    Linna covered her eyes. She just couldn't bear to watch the spectacle.

   "They are the only thing that can truly threaten Genom." [Quincy]
swung his cane around, pointing out the window. "The populace of this
city and the world, they are the true threats."

     Sonya looked at [Mackie].  "Seems like way too much trouble to me. 
Why didn't you just go buy porn CDs like other boys." 
     "Where's the sport in that?"

     While the other Knight Sabers gaped at the spot she'd been standing
Sylia strode there.  She waved an arm through the space and remarked,
"That's rather disconcerting." 
     "Really?"  Titanite sounded surprised.  "I though you were
unflappable." 
     "Young lady, no one is as cool as I act.  Unless they're already
dead."

      Haruka leaned forward and smiled, knocking over the pieces on her 
side of the board as she set her hand carelessly there for support. She
continued to lean forward until her forehead touched Michiru's. Haruka 
grinned devilishly. "The only person I'm willing to lose to is you." Then 
she got up, brushing her hair back from her eyes, and moved off toward 
the kitchen. "How about breakfast?"

	The Moon was dead.

	The solar wind swept over the rocky surface as it had for aeons,
passing no living thing in its flight from the sun.  No feet stirred the 
lunar dust; No eyes brooded on the landscape's stark beauty.  But at the
northern edge of Mare Serenitatis, a silent jumble of crystal blocks and
pillars sat, a decaying memorial to the life and laughter that once
lived there.

One part of two. Ranma never wanted to know of any other fraction ever
again.

	I know I can think of more good quotes than this; I'll post them 
as soon as I can dig them up.
