Whether cliche or otherwise, some turns of phrases seem to stick with you longer than others.
Share your own favorites, or those of authors you've read here. For instance:
The Dragonbone Chair, Tad Williams:
"...the sighing grass from the winds..."
"...The sun had dropped until there was nothing left but a bright residue along the crest of the hill..."
I have more, of course, but that's just a few examples from something recent.
What are are some memorable lines from your past reading and writing? (Don't forget to give credit if it's someone else's work... )
