I always feel weird about these, like that dril quote. Shakespeare, Hobbes, Dril, and the people who worked on gargoyles all share the same thing: THEY ARE WRITERS. They know how to write good. They got paid to write good. They built their lives around writing good. These amazing quotes like "face god and walk backwards into hell" don't happen by accident, they are intentional creations by people who are doing their absolute best to write something memorable, and occasionally succeed.
They know how to write good. They got paid to write good. They built their lives around writing good.
They know how to write well. They got paid to write well. They built their lives around writing well.
They know how to write. Well, they got paid to write. Well, they built their lives around writing. Well, ...
Now this is well writing!
They wrote about heroes saving the world, therefore they wrote good.
That what they wrote is so memorable to us means they wrote well.
Thanks for the clarification, Tracy
Are you 16 getting an A in English class?
Yes?
Well, when you get to college, they'll teach you that writing can have intentional errors, including grammar errors, to achieve a specific effect in the mind of the reader. In your mind, the effect was "I gotta correct this guy on the internet. I won't bother checking his comment history, I'm just gonna assume he doesn't know what an adverb is."
Oh, your choice was bad then.
Whooosh
Not to mention they got deep in the lore of King Arthur and Macbeth and what not for information to write that show.

Hyena: Why do you read that stuff?
Fox: Because Nietzsche's too butch and Kafka reminds me of your little friends over there.
