Chatterbox: Blab About Books

Guess the book quote!
This game's probably...

This game's probably been done on here before, but I thought it'd be fun to do again. Basically, someone posts a line of dialogue from a book, and other people try to guess what it's from. There's not really any winning or losing, it's just fun. So without further ado, let's see how many fandoms I can summon with these quotes:

"You are not much of a warrior, are you, Finian?"

"Make way for the Raven King"

"My ghost won't associate with your ghost"

"I am not ruined. I am ruination."

"Fear is the mind-killer"

"You are a pipe dream."

"Good night, sweet prince." 

"You owe me three days in the infirmary."

"Am I not merciful?"

"I am the one thing you will never kill. I am hope." 

Anyone got any guesses?

"It must just be some local fisherman out for a pleasure cruise alone at night through shark-infested waters." 

"To die will be an awfully big adventure."

"The first place I can well remember was a large pleasant meadow with a pond of clear water in it."

Ok I googled it and I actually haven't read that book, so either I read it in a past life or I read something similar somewhere else

Eyyyyy the first one is from Princess Bride! Although I thought it was eel-infested waters, not shark-infested...?

"You wouldn't."

"No. I wouldn't. And i'm the villain.  What do you suppose that says about you?"

We don't know any of theses quotes but here's one for people to guess:

"So, there I was, tied to an altar made from out-dated encyclopedias, about to get sacrificed to the dark powers by a cult of evil Librarians."

This one will be pretty obvious to anyone who has read the book. :)

Hehe, I was writing that comment and it turns out I was wrong. For the record, Chaser did know the Hamlet quote and now he's annoyed that I said he didn't.

Chaser: "Good night, sweet prince" is from Hamlet!

Jay: How do you even know that? You've never seen Hamlet. Or read it. Or anything.

Chaser: I just do. Be quiet Jay. Anyways, heres a quote that quotes that quote from Hamlet! See if you can gues-

Jay: *muttering* A quote that quotes that quote...? Hang on a sec... trying to make sense of that...

Chaser: I SAID be quiet, Jay. Anyways, here it is:

"'Good night, sweet prince.' {name redacted} whispered as the junk crashed to the ground. 'Or princess. Or, most likely, genderless peice of inanimate space junk.'"
