(As some of you probably guessed, this is indeed "Oskar's Quotes" from the Wingfeather Saga forum rebranded to GE)
So basically, this is just a thread where you can share a quote, be it from a book, movie, tv show, speech, historic event, etc. (it can be GE, but doesn't have to be), and other people try to guess what it's from or who said it. There's no scoring system or specific rule set; it's very much just for fun. The only "rules" would really just be common courtesy; like, don't spam with a bunch of quotes all at once, I guess.
(Also keep it family-friendly in terms of language and content, but that kind of goes without saying)
Have fun, everyone!

"And it seemed at last that there were two musics progressing at one time...and they were utterly at variance. The one was deep and wide and beautiful, but slow and blended with an immeasurable sorrow, from which its beauty chiefly came. The other had now achieved a unity of its own; but it was loud, and vain, and endlessly repeated; and it had little harmony, but rather a clamorous unison as of many trumpets braying upon a few notes. And it essayed to drown the other music by the violence of its voice, but it seemed that its most triumphant notes were taken by the other and woven into its own solemn pattern."
