If they're still in the fic, they're not quotes, they're just lines of writing. What you have there is a fic rec.

”What?” Flinty was feeling faint and was starting to hope it was a sign of approaching death. ”You mean you wanted me to admit that I'm not as rich as you, and not how I've been attracted to you ever since 1887 when you tarred and feathered me for stealing your supplies and leaving you to die in the middle of Transvaal veld?”

”THAT WAS YOU!?”

Oh shit, Flinty thought. How am I finding ways to dig myself even deeper in the bloody Mariana Trench!?

“Unethical? Hah!” Dr. Raymond waved a hand in order to take up as much space as possible. "I got an elder god to impregnate an innocent woman! Why, you ask? For science!“

"Ought to have charged that elder god. Get some more girls, run a profit. Eh?” Dr. Stockhill made a facial expression so lewd as to make Victor Frankenstein shudder.

“You men are all mad! We ought to dedicate ourselves to the preservation of life, not its abuse! Provided the life isn’t ugly, of course.”

a brutal and beautiful and ultimately satisfying fic in which loki suffers the mythological punishment with the snake, and thor enlists tony and steve to save him. warnings for gore, general badfeels, and odin being a monumental asshole. the opposite of a warning for thor's brotherly devotion, which is True and Pure. :3

Saw this fic recommend and I just started it and im already finding good lines:

As he was turning to go, Tony wondered what it was supposed to mean when a god bowed to you.

The residents of Baker Street have been aware of -- if not actively participating in -- the phenomenon since Christmas when an unknown individual nailed a wooden plaque inviting others of like-minded interests to share their fantasies with others. This journalist has been informed that posts to the board are made requesting, most often, stories of an indiscreet nature, specifically featuring the characters and events of the famous Sherlock Holmes stories written by the well-respected author and medical practicioner, Dr. John Watson. Replies are then posted within days or even hours, ranging in length from single sentences to short novels that comically dangle loosely in the wind, but are noticeably always saved and reattached to the board more securely.

Anyway, if you still think I have the awesomest job in the world after doing all that, I suggest either checking out the "Careers" link at the bottom of the page or seeking professional help.

He thought about that for a moment, then added: It's not that I particularly wanted to be stricken blind or go gibbering mad the first time I looked out of the window, mind you. But it would at least have created a certain sense of occasion.

Captain Tarrant slowly turned around, his expression curiously neutral except for a pronounced twitch under one eye. "XO," he said calmly, "you have the conn."

And then, quietly and without any particular fuss, Captain Tarrant fell face-down on the deck in a dead faint.

How did they even have time to play with all these toys? Especially since he'd never seen Luca play with anything except an iPad and that one plastic cash register.

Okay, maybe he was a little proud of Luca for that one. Especially when the kid short-changed a teddy bear for being rude to him.

He stared down at his grandchildren in despair. They… really wanted a story, didn't they? Was there not something they could watch instead?

No, a story was always the best thing to send a child to sleep with. That was what his daughter insisted when she caught him letting the children watch Watership Down until they fell asleep (the TV show, not the film – he wasn't a monster).

"Okay," he said, voice cracking, "what book do you want?"

"Can't you tell us a story from when you were young?" asked Isabel. "You're so old! You must have interesting stories, right?"

It was illegal to dropkick a small child out the window, right?

"What did you do when you were little?" asked Luca.

"Respected my elders." A fat lie but oh well. It was a lie his family told him to get him to behave. It didn't work but they could sleep easily.

God damn I love the rapid-fire funny here, so few people can pull that off.

"I’ll be happy if we manage to avoid any unplanned civic destruction — it would be a first for us. So far we’ve brought down a mine, a port, and a water distribution system — though that last one was within the mission scope.”

“Announcing his intention would technically make it planned civic destruction,” Raidou said, which wasn’t exactly the point Genma’d been trying to make.

"Just let me sit here and wallow in these chili fries forever," he moaned, his face pressed back into his arms.

"How about you wallow for —" Michael paused, thinking, "ten minutes, and then we can go back to my place and forget this whole thing ever happened."

Jeremy made a noise of confirmation from behind his arms.

There's a third emotion in there, but it vaguely feels like screaming and Michael's pretty sure that yelling isn't an emotion, exactly.

To no one's great surprise, the kind of people who are looking for people to perform corporate espionage prefer employees who don't end up exposed all over social media.

Graves is speechless. This is by far the most tasteless coming out he has ever seen. Which of course it is. How else would Mark Beaks conduct himself? He was wearing a hoodie under another hoodie, without any semblance of shame or discomfort.

“Unless I’m using the vacuum,” Eddie agrees. Venom loathes the thing. Maybe it’s the noise it makes, or the fact that they went exploring inside once and had a terrible time.

There are the typical activities that make his symbiote happy, like the rush of chasing down an opponent or climbing to a high ledge in the middle of the night, but there are also little things too. Like popping bubble wrap with their tongue or rolling around in Eddie’s shaving cream or intentionally wrapping Eddie like a burrito in his sheets so that he needs help getting up in the morning.

It was a little more intimate than he was prepared to be. He was still in the ‘struggling to make eye-contact’ phase himself.
