Same rules as with the movie quote game just with quotes from books. Just make sure that if it is a book seires you tell what book in the sieres it is when you answer.

Here is mine;

"I am not worried, [char 1]," said [char 2], his voice a little stronger despite the freezing water. "I am with you."

nope, remeber books, not movies.

Here is another quote;

"I would assume that you were going to offer me refreshment," [char 1] said to [char 2], "but the evidence so far suggests that that would be optimistic to the point of foolishness."

This one is a bit older then your quote but I rather liked the book.

“...Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it 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.”

Frank Herbert's Dune. It's the mantra that Paul recites. I believe it was taught by the Bene Gesserit?
 
New Book just came out... (thats my hint) Its book two in the series.

It was easy for (Char 1) to deflect {Char 3} sword, blue sparks flying from the metal as their blades grated against one another. {Char 3} landed with astonished expression. He struck again, and (char 1) evaded the sword by leaning back, like a tree swaying in the wind. In quick succession, {char 3} rained a score of heavy blows upon (char 1), each of which (Char 1) dodged or blocked, using --Weapons Name--- shealth as often as the sword to foil {Char 3} onslaught.

This one isn't quite a quote from a character but the tag line for the novel.

"ARE YOU A COWARD? This is not for you. We badly need a brave man. He must be 23 to 25 years old, in perfect health, at least six feet tall, weigh about 190 pounds, fluent English with some French, proficient with all weapons, some knowledge of engineering and mathematics essential, willing to travel, no family or emotional ties, indomitably courageous and handsome of face and figure. Permanent employment, very high pay, glorious adventure, great danger. You must apply in person, 17, rue Dante, Nice, 2me etage, appt. D."
 
I didn't know, so I googled it. Is googling it against the rules? Ah, I'll assume it is because that would be pretty lame...

I googled it to, if no one gets it then Exo can post a new one, or let someone else go.
 
I'll put up one more quote and if no one gets it by tonight I'll give the answer and do a different one I suppose.

"It was an election year with the customary theme of anything you can do I can do better, to a background of beeping sputniks. I was tenty-one but couldn't figure out which party to vote against-
-Instead I phoned my draft board and told them to send me that notice."

ah, your turn is over, book is Glory Road

Ok my turn!
If you don't feel like doing any actual work, and yet you want to appear "useful," you can spend your workday criticizing coworkers, i.e., weasel work. It's both easy and entertaining and it shows your dedication to teamwork.
Luckily for you, your coworkers are no better at thier jobs than you are at yours. So there's plenty of material to work with.
Try to tresist the urge to laugh out loud as you enjoy your God-given right of making other people feel like losers. Pick out some obvious problems with a coworker's performance and then suggest the most unpleasant solution imaginable. For example:
"Gee carl, it looks lie your customers and vendors aren't on the same page. You should host a conference somewhere in the middle of thier locations, like Iraq, to work out all the differences."
