If you go could only pick one, what is the single best line of a play, opera, poem, movie etc you get my drift!

Mine is

Don't shed any blood, or cut less or more than exactly a pound of flesh. If you take more orless than exactly a pound, even if it's just the tiniest fraction of an ounce—if the scale changes by even so much as a hair, you die, and all your property will be confiscated.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Come away, O human child!

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand,

The funniest quotes often come from a genuine misunderstanding . He said that in the chamber of Kerry County Council in the early 90s. A motion had been put by another councillor to allow permits for boatmen to use gondolas to ferry tourists to Innisfallen Island on the lakes.

That's where Sean Moncrieff got the title for his comedy panel show 'Don't Feed The Gondolas'

"Come away, O human child!

And also put to music in 'The Stolen Child' by The Waterboys. (Fisherman's Blues) It reminds me of saying goodbye to my girlfriend when I was 18 and moving to London. Still gives me a lump in my throat.

I didn't know about the song.. Must look it up..there's definitely something very final and poignant about it..

Romeo &Juliet ...

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,

My love as deep; the more I give to thee,

The more I have, for both are infinite.

For some reason I remember a lot of Romeo and Juliet

Nigel: This is the top to, uh, you know, what we use on stage, but it’s very, very special because, if you can see, the numbers all go to eleven. Look… (pointing at the amp dials), right across the board. Eleven, eleven, eleven and then…

Marty: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten.

Nigel: Exactly.

Marty: Does that mean it’s louder? Is it any louder?

Nigel: Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten. You see, most, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten – you’re on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up – you’re on ten on your guitar, where can you go from there? Where?

Marty: I don’t know.

Nigel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?

Marty: Put it up to eleven.

Nigel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.

Marty: Why don’t you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?

Nigel: (pause) These go to eleven.
