boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooty Quotes from:
BEOWULF
On Cain's kindred did the everlasting Lord avenge the murder, for that he had slain Abel; he had no joy of that feud, but the Creator drove him far from mankind for that misdeed. Thence all evil broods were born, ogres and devils and evil spirits — the giants also, who long time fought with God, for which he gave them their reward.
--Lines 107-114
They have seen my strength for themselves, have watched me rise from the darkness of war, dripping with my enemies' blood. I drove five great giants into chains, chased all of that race from the earth. I swam in the blackness of night, hunting monsters out of the ocean, and killing them one by one; death was my errand and the fate they had earned. Now Grendel and I are called together, and I've come.
Lines 417-426
Fate goes ever as fate must.
-Line 455
Often, for undaunted courage, fate spares the man it has not already marked.
-Lines 572-573
Fate saves the living when they drive away death by themselves!
-Lines 573-574
Grendel is no braver, no stronger than I am! I could kill him with my sword; I shall not, easy as it would be. This fiend is a bold and famous fighter, but his claws and teeth... beating at my sword blade, would be helpless. I will meet him with my hands empty--unless his heart fails him, seeing a soldier waiting weaponless, unafraid. Let God in His wisdom extend His hand where He wills, reward whom he chooses!
--Lines 677-687
He strode quickly across the inlaid floor, snarling and fierce: his eyes gleamed in the darkness, burned with a gruesome light. Then he stopped, seeing the hall crowded with sleeping warriors,... and his heart laughed, he relished the sight, intended to tear the life from those bodies by morning.
-Lines 724-732
The swirling surf had covered his death, hidden deep in murky darkness his miserable end, as hell opened to receive him.
Lines 849-852
His vanity
