Show us the chest of your rich memories

Each of us has that one favorite passage. It may be a part with the most vibrant descriptions - almost lifelike. Or, it could be a single sentence that completely turns the whole thing on its head. It might even be as short as a single word and still end as the part we love the most from a fic. So, what is your favorite line/paragraph/whatever?

(The title is not from be, but from the great poet Bauldiere’s poem ‘The Journey’)

I know I'm (very) late but here's my contribution:

What is compassion but the ultimate expression of strength, of command of the Force? To see suffering and be able to say: No. Not with my knowledge. Not while I am here. Compassion is not even empathy, it is drive. Simply the bone-deep urging to do something, to help. What was Revan’s rise driven by, if not compassion set aflame? Compassion is defiance, rejection of the status quo, it is nearly a form of madness.

BTW how are people doing the nice indented blue backed text?
