The Eloquence of Words: “The Princess Bride”

This just popped in my head. I don’t know why. I just get this way. They’re like chords in my mind. They suddenly sing.

And I remember bits of dialogue, bits of brilliance that made me laugh, made me shake my head. And this one catches me as the ultimate, the best, the greatest (well, one of the greatest, anyway) dialogue sequences known to man. It is so good, that it belongs in its own post. Here it is. Enjoy.

“Nothing Is Ever Easy” - First Wizard Zeddicus Zorander

Published by roustan under Literary Industry Edit This

I need to display the sickly, maniacal giddiness that is me over the upcoming premiere of a series that I will utterly devote my life, my soul to–

LEGEND OF THE SEEKER

As First Wizard Zedd would say…. “Nothing is ever easy”. It is not easy having to wait one more week. ONE. MORE. WEEK. It premieres on ABC, Nov. 1, two-hour premiere. Can’t wait. Will die if I miss it. I don’t even mean it figuratively. I mean, literally. I am going to literally DIE…if I miss it. My heart will stop, my eyes will roll in the back of my head. I will physically die and go to Hell if I miss my two-hour premiere. Yes.

In case you’re wondering why this new fantasy series is so important to me–if you can recall the very first post on my blog, I revealed to you a favorite author of mine–TERRY GOODKIND. He wrote a fantasy series of books that is dear to me. “Sword of Truth” series. The first book of his that kept me up all night was WIZARD’S FIRST RULE.

“Legend of the Seeker”, premiering on ABC, is based on that book. And the following seasons (as I’m sure the series will do well on television) will also follow the storylines of Goodkind’s continuing books up to his last book CONFESSOR.

Needless to say, I–AM–STOKED. I’m shakin’ in my boots. I cannot wait. Only, what, seven days left? Anyway, here’s a wonderful YouTube clip of the first ten minutes that will premiere for the first 2-hour episode. It will truly rawk. Taco Supreme, everyone. Indeed. Taco Supreme.
