I just got the idea for this, so hopefully it'll work :) I start by posting a quote from a book, movie or song and you guys guess where it's from! The one who guesses correctly gets to do the next quote.
I think it's better if we try to use quotes from fairly well-known sources, and maybe we can even do animal related ones!
Here's the first (I think it's pretty easy):
Buck did not read the newspapers, or he would have known that trouble was brewing, not alone for himself, but for every tide- water dog, strong of muscle and with warm, long hair, from Puget Sound to San Diego. Because men, groping in the Arctic darkness, had found a yellow metal, and because steamship and transportation companies were booming the find, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted dogs, and the dogs they wanted were heavy dogs, with strong muscles by which to toil, and furry coats to protect them from the frost.
