This thread is to list your favorite quotes from OFITG. Mine has to be, "And that, Annette, is called Pilates"
"If I die, I will wait for you, do you understand? No matter how long. I will watch from beyond to make sure you live every year you have to its fullest, and then we’ll have so much to talk about when I see you again…" --Bones

I guess it's the one in my signature: "Once you go dead, no one's better in bed". It's become kind of a private joke between my bestfriend and I. Got us some weird looks, but hopefully most people don't understand what we mean. GMS always wins.

PS: Love the pilates one too, along with "I will knock the slut right out of you, Annette" (or something like that!)
"Once you go dead, no one's better in bed!" Cat, One foot in the grave

I've got my mouth, it's a weapon, it's a bombshell, it's a cannon. I've got my words, I won't give them mercy.

There's evil in your heart, and it wants out to play.

I've tried and tried, but, just can not decide between these three, so I'm throwing them all out there:

1. "Vengence is the emptiest of emotions." :royalty-pharaoh:

2. "Tate is right. We're not blowing you up before I get a chance to show you my sausage."

3. "I'm half Sicilian and half African. Both sides believe in retribution. The only pussy here is yours, Commander."


Ah, Jeaniene, you do have a way with words. :P

Another favorite quote was in a scene between Juan and Bones on page 196:
"You called her Kitten? And she let you? She put me in a coma for three days when I called her that! My balls never recovered from her smashing them into my spine!"
"And well she should have," Bones agreed. "She's my Kitten, and no one else's."
"If I die, I will wait for you, do you understand? No matter how long. I will watch from beyond to make sure you live every year you have to its fullest, and then we’ll have so much to talk about when I see you again…" --Bones

:violin: Have you ever owed someone everything? All your strengths, all your victories, every last thing that meant anything in your life . . . and it can be traced to one single person? That what Bones is to me.” OFITG, 192. :violin:

Motherf*****, one of the guests was a vampire. They’d better be planning on eating cake, or I would have to get real frisky with the silverware. That would be a nice trick, slaughtering a guest at the reception without anyone noticing.” OFITG,77.
(My Husband’s Pick)


“You look fetching in that shade.
You filthy animal! Every night I prayed that you were dead and rotting in hell.
You should have spoken up a bit. :pray: The Almighty :pray: must not have heard you.” OFITG, 83.

Love it; love it; love it.
“Oh, Ms. Russell.
Would you be a luv and get me a drink? You remember my preference, I’m sure.
Oh, yeah. And a f****** whiskey neat.” OFITG, 89.

"Then one day a friend of mine asked me to find his daughter's murderer, and I traced her killer and his operation to a bar in Ohio. There I met you, and I fell in love. You can't imagine what that was like after centuries of...emptiness. I hadn't thought I was capable of falling in love, but at last I felt like I had something to give other than a good shag or killing a bloke for someone." Pg 271.

"You have ever taken his side over mine!"
"Not this again." PG 334

"You shot Danny Milton. Is this a new hostage negotiation tactic I'm not aware of?" PG 57

"Back in London I was many things." pg91

"Oh Kitten, now you're just daring me, aren't you?" pg105

"Because if I was going to f*%$ you, I'd get a bottle of gin, some Frank Sinatra music... and a crash cart for the heart attack you'd have." pg127

Okay there are more BUT I'll stop.
