Whoever says that comic books don't amount to anything are missing out on a lot.  Here are a few quotable quotes from some superb graphic novels. :)

"I was seven, the first time. The family cat had been missing for days, and I said I'd had the strangest dream: On May 25th, our cat should be returned to us. A complete lie of course. But after the fuss that the made of me... How? How could I admit that I invented everything? I chose to keep up the pretense, and the longer I did, the harder it became to extricate myself."
- Mr. Lees to Abberline, From Hell by Alan Moore

"Everyone goes around trying to find their soulmate, but no matter how hard they look, they never find it. So instead, they force two bodies together. Everyone wants to use that short time they have together to open their hearts. Even if it's just a one-night dream that's bought with money... It's funny... It's strange... It's sad... I hate doing it, but I also like it!"
- Lawrence Hill to Adrian Clay, Boys Next Door by Kaori Yuki

"I have the whole world to explore, and you don't..." (Kai: Ouch. >_<)
- Beth to Yorick before she broke up with him, Y: the Last Man

"It's not, 'at this late hour.' It's, 'from now on...' "
- Saki to Kouichi, Kurogane no Linebarrel by Shimizu Eiichi

"If you don't trust yourself, trust me who trusts in you!!!"
- Kamina (<3) to Simon, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann by GAINAX

To anyone who has a program that can handle torrents, I HIGHLY recommend that you download some issues of Fables by Willingham, Buckingham, and Leialoha. The story is superb, and the entire series is quote-worthy. For the time being, I'll be running through Alan Moore's Watchmen and Y: The Last Man all over again, because these are both made of AWESOME. 8D God Bless, everyone!
