Lan: When you can't win a big victory, sheepherder, learn to settle for the small ones. If you made them think of you as something more than a farmboy who'll be easy to handle, then you won a small victory. Now be quiet and listen. I've only time for one last lesson, the hardest. Sheathing the Sword. Rand: You've spent an hour every morning making me do nothing but draw this bloody sword and put it back in the scabbard. Standing, sitting, lying down. I think I can manage to get it back in the sheath without cutting myself. Lan: I said listen, sheephearder. There will come a time when you must achieve a goal at all costs. It may come in attack or defense. And the only way will be to allow the sword to be sheathed in your own body. Rand: That's crazy. Why would I ever--? Lan: YOu will know when it comes, sheepherder, when the price is worth the gain, and there is no other choice left to you. That is called Sheathing the Sword. Remeber it.
((Little long, I know... sorry!))

I love all the really deep ones said by Sam in the LOTR movies Anything deep from LOTR. I dunno. I'm not very learrrrrrrrned Many that live deserve death. And some die that deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then be not too eager to deal out death in the name of justice, fearing for your own safety. Even the wise cannot see all ends. “It must often be so, Sam, when things are in danger: someone has to give them up, lose them, so that others may keep them.” Oh gosh, and that ROTK scene in Gondor with Pippin and Gandalf discussing death... I always cry. J.R.R. Tolkien

Just to lighten the mood
"I dont know Pen we're talking about a wooden staff..." -Khyber "Straken"
"Penderick man dont be an ass man!" -Montgomery "The Island of Dr. Moreau" (this is rather funny because he sounds like a hippy in the vitorian era)
