Egwene: Good, now let me return to my nothing. 
---------------- 
Davram: The other Andoran Houses are surrounding Caemlyn. 
Bael: They look prepared to do something. 
Davram: That's just what they want you to think. 
Deira: I've been attacked. Someone did something. 
Davram: Who would dare. 
Deira: Obviously someone evil. 
-------------- 
Elayne: I am gathering useless Houses to my cause for Andor. I am forming a plan to do something. 
Birgitte: What will you do? 
Elayne: Take a bath. Then meet some more people from useless Houses. 
Birgitte: That's stupid. 
Elayne: You don't understand what it is to be a Queen. 
Birgitte: I understand what it is to not be an idiot. 
Elayne: Exactly. Now pass the Royal Soap. 
------------------ 
Perrin: We can't catch up to a moving city of Aiel using Travelling. 
Elyas: You can't catch up to a couple hundred thousand people tramping on foot through snow, when you have the use of Travelling? 
Perrin: Well, we're flying around the globe, hoping to hit them. 
Elyas: Perhaps you could order the Asha'man to move your army in smaller spaces. 
Perrin: Are you trying to force something to happen? 
Elyas: By the Light, I apologize. 
Perrin: I forgive you. Now pass the brooding chair.

Faile: Yes. 
Sevanna: Tie her up and leave her outside.

Morgase: I must remember how many times I've been captured. Four? Five? I hope I've passed that skill onto my daughter. She needs to learn how to become a Queen. 
----------------- 
Perrin: There is a trail of Darkhounds dangerously circling my camp. Threatening for something to happen. Dangerous. Something might happen. Dangerous. Oh, they ran away. Good. Back to nothing. 
---------- 
Delana: People are talking about talking with Elaida. 
Egwene: They are talking about talking with Elaida! 
Alanna: How can this be? 
Morvrin: Lunacy. 
Beonin: We must talk about what their talking about talking means. 
Sheriam: As long as we're not actually DOING something, we should be okay. 
Egwene: Good plan. Now let me get back to the nothing that I was working on. 
Halima: Headache for your headache? 
Egwene: You're my most trusted friend.

Rand: You must stop bonding Aes Sedai. 
Logain: Why? 
Rand: Because you're making me look lazy. 
----------------- 
Perrin: The whole world can burn until I get Faile. I vow that I will never rest until I hold her in my….. 
Masema: That town has grain. 
Perrin: Time for a grain break. 
Everyone: GRAIN BREAK! 
--------------------- 
Rand: Arrange for a truce with the Seanchan. 
Davram: Why? 
Rand: Because I need more naked time with Min. 
------------ 
Tuon: Toy. 
Mat: Tuon. 
Noal: I now pronounce you idiot and wife. 
------------------ 
Perrin: I've cut off my enemy's hand. I feel terrible. 
Elyas: Why? 
Perrin: I've just done something! 
Elyas: What will you do? 
Perrin: Throw away my axe so it can never happen again. From now on, I'm carrying a pillow. 
Elyas: If I keep staying around you, I'll need one. 
------------- 
Egwene: I'm off to do something. 
Siuan: What? 
Egwene: None of your business. Now, if memory serves, I gently ease my foot into the trap like this. 
-------------- 
Bashere: The Seanchan want you to meet their leader - The Fake Princess. 
Rand: To Be Continued. 
Bashere: What? 
Rand: Nothing, I just thought it would sound good if I said that.
