Steven Sarafian asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Dear Ms Bujold: Do you have favorite lines in your own work, or in the writing of others? And, if so, do they tend to be words of wisdom well expressed, a thought perfectly expressed in beautiful language, an unexpected turn in the plot delivered in a handful of words, a moment of humor? No room here for examples alas (although I have one from you for each category, & doozies from Dorothy L. Sayers and John Morressy).

Lois McMaster Bujold
Yes and yes, but I won't clutter things trying to list them. This seems like a better game for the commenters, chiming in below. More room for them there.

Ta, L.
