William Goldman Quote
For there was now a wall of trees blocking any progress--and Inigo would not stop bleeding--and Westley would not start breathing--and Buttercup would not stop staring at him, her face lit with the hope that of all the creatures left stomping the earth, he, Fezzik, was the only one that could save her beloved and thereby stop her heart from shredding.Fezzik at this heroic moment knew what he wanted most to do: suck his thumb forever. But since that was out of the question, he did the next best thing. He made a poem.Fezzik's
