There just might be hope for you.” And she danced off toward the keep, twirling her doublebladed staff by her side and muttering, “Fire?

I don't need to know if you decide to eat some bread and cheese in the middle of the night.' (Saphira)Unless a man with a very long knife is waiting for me outside of my tent.'(Eragon)If you could not defeat a single man with a very long knife, you would be a poor excuse for a Rider indeed.' (Saphira)”

“If anything happens, I'm going to pin you to my back and never let you off." I love you too." - Saphira and Eragon”
