I have so many favorite quotes! Many of them are from Eliot's poems, so I'll give you this bit from Burnt Norton (the first of Four Quartets):
Sudden in a shaft of sunlight
Even while the dust moves
There rises the hidden laughter
Of children in the foliage
Quick now, here, now, always—
Ridiculous the waste sad time
Stretching before and after.

"Davy Jones cannot make port. Cannot step on land but once every ten years. Land is where you are safe, Jack Sparrow, and so you will carry land with you."
"...Dirt. This is a jar of dirt."
"Yes."
"Is the jar of dirt going to help?"
"If you don't want it, give it back."
"No."
"Then it helps."
―Tia Dalma and Jack Sparrow

My favorite quote isn't really a quite, because it's an entire song. But it's Daylight by Maroon 5. It holds special meaning for me and my love :3

In true plague fashion—all hail the plaguemother—my brain always goes to the macabre and sometimes the crass. This is probably the only one I can think of off the top of my head that sticks with me a lot.
