“A flicker of someone else’s memory came to Simon and he picked up Excalibur from where he had dropped it. Carefully, he laid Excalibur on Arthur’s chest. A smile crossed the king’s pasty face as he closed his grazed hands around the sword’s hilt. The touch of something so familiar seemed to give Arthur cause to close his eyes and after a final, relieved breath left his lips, he died.”
Sam Whitehouse“So endeth the story of the winning of Excalibur, and may God give unto you in your life, that you may have His truth to aid you, like a shining sword, for to overcome your enemies; and may He give you Faith (for Faith containeth Truth as a scabbard containeth its sword), and may that Faith heal all your wounds of sorrow as the sheath of Excalibur healed all the wounds of him who wore that excellent weapon. For with Truth and Faith girded upon you, you shall be as well able to fight all your battles as did that noble hero of old, whom men called King Arthur.”
Howard Pyle, The Story of King Arthur and His Knights“In order to get over the ethical difficulties presented by the naive naturalism of many parts of those Scriptures, in the divine authority of which he firmly believed, Philo borrowed from the Stoics (who had been in like straits in respect of Greek mythology), that great Excalibur which they had forged with infinite pains and skill—the method of allegorical interpretation. This mighty 'two-handed engine at the door' of the theologian is warranted to make a speedy end of any and every moral or intellectual difficulty, by showing that, taken allegorically or, as it is otherwise said, 'poetically' or, 'in a spiritual sense,' the plainest words mean whatever a pious interpreter desires they should mean.”
Thomas Henry Huxley, The Evolution Of Theology: An Anthropological Study“Arthur without Excalibur was still Arthur.”
Kendare Blake, Anna Dressed in Blood“Langdon turned to Sophie. "Who is that? What... happened?"Teabing hobbled over. "You were rescued by a knight brandishing an Excalibur made by Acme Orthopedic.”
Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code“Honor is a balancing act and only the heart can strike that balance.”
Stefan Emunds, Gawain and the Green Knight“Waiting for one’s execution is worse than dying. To seek my beheading is glory. Who went to his execution willingly? Jesus did. Jesus even dragged his cross half way to Golgotha. I think he would have nailed himself to the cross if he had to.”
Stefan Emunds, Gawain and the Green Knight“The world is an ambitious business. It continuously expands and evolves. But people are lazy and God is far too lovely to do something about it.”
Stefan Emunds, Gawain and the Green Knight“At least I’m the one leaving. It’s so much easier to leave than to be left.”
Stefan Emunds, Gawain and the Green Knight“Wake up! You’re a sacred soul and glory is yours for the taking.”
Stefan Emunds, Gawain and the Green Knight
