Has anyone noticed any lines lifted from The Princess Bride?
Specifically, in the scene between Ovelia and Delita:
     Ovelia: Do not mock me! I could not bear it.

I believe it's a line Buttercup speaks, but I can't be certain.
We will build cities in a day, we will build towers to the heavens. We will be heroes.
This sleeping city doesn't know what's coming. She doesn't feel the heat.
Even when the darkness surrounds us, we shall light up the night.

I've picked up Princess Bride, LOTR ("There and Back Again"!), and so many shameless A Song of Ice and Fire references it makes my head spin.  Probably the most blatant of the bunch:

Dycedarg's Scheming
"Dycedarg's initial plan to kidnap Ovelia foiled, he once again ordered Gaffgarion into action. But this time, he authorized the death of any who dared to interfere- even I, his own brother, was to be no exception. The incident at Orbonne Monastery had alerted Dycedarg to the existence of another player in this game of thrones- one dead set on foiling his plans."
