Across many works, you will hear the same quotations over and over. These quotes are so well known that most people will recognize them right away, but not all of them will be aware where the quote originated from. Popular sources include William Shakespeare, historical figures, and classic literature. This will often be because of Small Reference Pools - either the author isn't familiar with less famous quotes, or they are afraid the the audience won't be. Predictably, they will often be mangled, both deliberately and not. May overlap with As the Good Book Says... if the memorable quote is from The Bible. When used to title a work, it is a Literary Allusion Title. Not to be confused with Beam Me Up, Scotty!, which is when a quote is popularly attributed to a source but was never actually said, or played for laughs when a stock quote is misidentified In the Original Klingon (many of these are also misidentified with the bible quotes when Shakespeare said it first). See also Stock Phrases, which can't be attributed to a single source but also show up time and again. If you want to add a quote to this page, please come up with at least three examples of its use. If you're not sure, add it to the discussion page. Once it has enough examples, it can be moved here. Not to be confused with numbers relating to the prices of company stocks. Quotes: |

God of War II has an Easter Egg/experience bonus about a third of the way through the game, in the area with the ginormous horses chained to the island. By activating a few particular spots where nothing actually seems to happen, the last one by a tree on an island gives Kratos a huge experience boost—while the camera turns skyward to observe "Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds" writing itself in the clouds. And and in an arguably more epic case, in the end of Ghost of Sparta, Kratos stands alone in the Suicidal Cliffs from the first game, having finally killed Thanatos, but lost his brother and his mother, pretty much severing any ties to humanity he had. As he looks down the cliff he tried jumping from the first game, he wonders horrified "By the Gods, What have I become?" once again. The Grave Digger from the first game, who is actually Zeus in disguise, stops digging his brother's grave and answers "Death. The Destroyer of Worlds. Which in a meta sense seems to be literally true, given everything Kratos does following it all. |

And and in an arguably more epic case, in the end of Ghost of Sparta, Kratos stands alone in the Suicidal Cliffs from the first game, having finally killed Thanatos, but lost his brother and his mother, pretty much severing any ties to humanity he had. As he looks down the cliff he tried jumping from the first game, he wonders horrified "By the Gods, What have I become?" once again. The Grave Digger from the first game, who is actually Zeus in disguise, stops digging his brother's grave and answers "Death. The Destroyer of Worlds. Which in a meta sense seems to be literally true, given everything Kratos does following it all. | |

The Sandman (1989): In the issue "Hope in Hell", Morpheus goes to hell to reclaim one of his artifacts of power. When he ends up in a shapeshifting/reality-warping contest of wits with the demon who has his property, he tricks the demon into becoming a universe-ending force and beats him by becoming "Hope" (the only thing that can remain after such a force). The assembled devils and demons agree that Morpheus has won the duel and even allow him safe passage out after he threatens to remove the only hope remaining to those in hell (specifically the ability to dream of heaven). | |
