Who said it?
« on: April 27, 2009, 06:28:29 PM »
Post a quote, guess who said it, first correct guesser posts another quote. can be from RL, a book, or whatever. If it's from a book the character's name is needed.

I shall begin;

"I'm a great believer in luck - and I find the harder I work, the more of it I have."
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Captain Picard wasn't it?

(This is after some memory digging, as I am really not a fan and have never seen a full episode of Star Trek)

Jim Hawkins is correct, so you can have it, but the book is just called 'Treasure Island' and was written by Robert Louis Stevenson.
