Here's seven classics for you:
  1. "There was Eru, the One, who in Arda is called Ilúvatar; and he made first the Ainur, the Holy Ones, that were the offspring of his thought, and they were with him before aught else was made."
  2. “Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way”
  3. “There was a boy called Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it.”
  4. “The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home.”
  5. “The island of Gont, a single mountain that lifts its peak a mile above the storm-racked Northeast Sea, is a land famous for wizards.”
  6. “Captain First Rank Marko Ramius of the Soviet Navy was dressed for the Arctic conditions normal to the Northern Fleet submarine base at Polyarnyy.”
  7. “Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much.”
