I have a vague feeling this quote has floated around this list
before, but since I just now encountered it first hand (I'm reading
The DaVinci Code--bestseller by Dan Brown--as of yesterday) and I
thought it funny, I'll share it again:
"Throughout history, the Holy Grail has been the most special."
Langdon grinned. "Now you know why."
Faukman was shaking his head."But with all these books written about
it, why isn't this theory more widely known?"
"These books can't possibly compete with centuries of established
history, especially when that history is endorsed by the ultimate
bestseller of all time."
Faukman's eyes went wide. "Don't tell me Harry Potter is actually
about the Holy Grail."
"I was referring to the Bible."
Faukman cringed. "I knew that."
Though I woldn't say HP is about the Holy GRail, "Faukman" isn't
altogether off the mark since the "goblet of fire" is described in a
way that at least made me think of the holy grail, as though it were
making a cameo appearance in HP... :-)
