In the second book (Dragonfly in Amber), there's this exchange between the main characters (Jaime and Claire, his time-traveling wife from the 20th century) ... The quote after the break!
"[...] why do ye no just tell me to go to the devil, Sassenach?" he burst out.
I laughed until my sides hurt under the tight corseting, holding on to his arm.
"Go to hell, Jaime," I said at last, wiping my eyes. "Go directly to hell. Do not pass Go. Do not collect two hundred dollars. There. Do you feel better?"
"Aye, I do," he said, his expression lightening."When ye start to talk daft, I know you're all right."

And you? Do you have some quotes from your favourites books? Are there some books that you just can't get enough of? (weird structure, I know... correct me if it's wrong!)
