vorkosigan icons

So I'm collecting favorite quotes, hopefully to find at least one to make an icon out of. So far--

"The cream pie of justice flies one way," from the very end of Vor Game.
"Every Vor lady goes to the capital to shop," from Barrayar, with an appropriate image of a severed head.

And tonight I've decided I'm quite fond of:

"I don't want all the marbles. I don't want any of the marbles. It's death for me to be caught with marbles in my possession," from Warrior's Apprentice.

Also possibly: "Wrestling with temptation. Best two falls out of three," abridged from Memory.

ETA: I am quite possibly giddy with glee. I just rubbed this copy of Warrior's Apprentice with my face, like a cat. Why? Because Ivan was the first to tackle Vordrozda. I don't even know. GLEE, I say.

ETA2: and now I am crying at "Clay, boy, only clay." AAAAARRRRAAAAAAALLLLLL. MILES. oh my god.

I don't remember! It's been years since I bought them. (Also the Dendarii baseball cap is lovely, but kinda shallow for the shape of my head, so I never wear it since I'm constantly afraid it'll fall off.)

I also ordered ImpSec pins about, hm, two weeks ago and haven't gotten anything. I'm glad to know it's not just me!
