Wasn't exactly sure where to put this but it seemed right for here.
If someone thinks it belongs elsewhere - feel free to move it.

Here are a couple of phrases that I really like:
(Not so sure about the spelling on these, however.)

Memento Mori
Tabula Rasa

And, of course, our old favorite.
Deus ex Machina

Feel free to post your own favorite phrases or words.

[Quantus]

Im a fan of "Halcyon Days", and the sarcastic hipster alternative "Halcyon Daze"

Oh, and "Kestral".  Id been a fan of Fionavar for most of my life without knowing it was a reference to a type of Falcon. 

[Snowleopard]

Oh yeah, Halcyon is a wonderful word.

Re: Kestral.  Kestral is one of the smaller falcons and would, in olden days, be considered
a woman's bird.  Women usually didn't fly the bigger falcons and/or hawks.
Those would be the Gyrfalcon, the Peregrin, and the Saker.
