... if we don't get a Quotes thread very soon. Every other forum has one. So here goes:

 

"Late one night Carmack and his friends snuck up to a nearby school where they knew there were Apple II machines. Carmack had read about how thermite paste could be used to melt through glass, but he needed some kind of adhesive material, like Vaseline. He mixed the concoction and applied it to the window, dissolving the glass so they could pop out holes to crawl through. A fat friend, however, had more than a little trouble squeezing inside; he reached through the hole instead and opened the window to let himself in. Doing so, he triggered the silent alarm. The cops came in no time. The fourteen-year-old Carmack was sent for psychiatric evaluation to help determine his sentence."

- David Kushner, book Masters Of Doom

 

"You will get away with it."

- Frank, movie Donnie Darko

 

"I think this is where we shake hands."

- Mr. Glass, movie Unbreakable

 

"Oh, my God! Um-uh. Oh, my God, we... thank you... for the... food that mom has put in front of us and STOP! ...the devil! from doing bad things and... GET OUTTA HERE! ...Satan? GO! Go, so... that we may live in peace. Amen!"

- Hogarth is saying grace, movie The Iron Giant

 

"So crank your amp and deal the pain

Hey, dude - you're fuckin' insane!

The riverz run red with blood of posers

And don't you know that he's the fool

Who plays it cool

But needs for his beer to be much colder"

- Hey Dude, song by Beatallica

A couple of quotes I've been thinking about this election cycle:

 

"There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare."

 

"It is only one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of war that can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on." - SUN TZU: THE ART OF WAR

"Thus spake the master programmer:

'After three days without programming, life becomes meaningless.'"

-- Geoffrey James, "The Tao Of Programming"

 

"You barbarians! I'll sue the council for every penny it's got! I'l have you hung, drawn, and quartered! And whipped! And boiled...until...until...until you've had enough. And then I will do it again! And when I've finished I will take all the little bits, and I will JUMP on them! And I will carry on jumping on them until I get blisters, or I can think of anything even more unpleasant to do..."

-- Arthur Dent in "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy", by Douglas Adams

 

"Now it is such a bizarrely impossible coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the nonexistence of God. The arguement goes something like this:

'I refuse to prove that I exist,' says God, 'for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.'

'But,' say Man, 'the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED.'

'Oh dear,' says God, 'I hadn't though of that' and promply vanishes in a puff of logic.

-- "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy"

 

"It is the color of a bleached skull, his flesh; and the long hair which flows below his shoulders is milk-white. From the tapering, beautiful head stare two slanting eyes, crimson and moody, and from the loose sleeves of his yellow gown emerge two slender hands, also the color of bone. "

Oh hell, I mightas well add a book quote to make me look more intelligent than I actually am (me being six and all)

 

'Er. Shaped metal that does work? Toother Wheels?'

The taxman looked frightened 'Wheels with Teeth?'

'What do you call the things that grind corn?'

'Peasents.'

'Yes, but what do they grind corn with?'

'I don't know. Why should I know? Only peasents need to know that.'

'Yes, I suppose that say's it all really.'

Man: Oh look, this isn't an argument!

Mr. Vibrating: Yes it is!

Man: No it isn't! It's just contradiction!

Mr. Vibrating: No it isn't!

Man: It IS!

Mr. Vibrating: It is NOT!

Man: Look, you just contradicted me!

Mr. Vibrating: I did not!

Man: Oh, you DID!

Mr. Vibrating: No no no!

Man: You did just then!

Mr. Vibrating: Nonsense!

Man: (exasperated) Oh, this is futile!!

Mr. Vibrating: No it isn't!

Man: I came here for a good argument!

Mr. Vibrating: No you didn't, no, you came here for an argument!

Man: An argument isn't just contradiction.

Mr. Vibrating: CAN be!

Man: No it can't! An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.

Mr. Vibrating: No it isn't!

Man: Yes it is! 'tisn't just contradiction.

Mr. Vibrating: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position!

Man: Yes but that's not just saying "no it isn't".

Mr. Vibrating: Yes it is!

Man: No it isn't! Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.

Mr. Vibrating: No it isn't.

Man: Yes it is!

Mr. Vibrating: Not at all!

-- Monty Python, Argument Clinic

 

Waitress: You mean spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam spam and spam!

Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our weapon is suprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, and surprise, and the ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Amongst our weapons...are fear, surprise, ruth... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear...

"But what of the Greek myths, of the Greek god Zeus and of the popular image of Zeus - a Greek God - throwing down lightning bolts to kill people and knock down trees. Where did he find the time? And what of lightning being made of fire? In this workaday world of in the era of the founding father Benjamin Franklin we have no time nor patience for such concerns. These are for the third world and schizophrenics."

Dr McCoy, I'm surprised. Surprised that I didn't quote the elderberry one. But whatever.

 

GUARD #1: Halt! Who goes there?

ARTHUR: It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle

of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeator of the Saxons,

sovereign of all England!

GUARD #1: Pull the other one!

ARTHUR: I am. And this my trusty servant Patsy. We have

ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights

who will join me in my court of Camelot. I must speak with your

lord and master.

GUARD #1: What, ridden on a horse?

ARTHUR: Yes!

GUARD #1: You're using coconuts!

ARTHUR: What?

GUARD #1: You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're

bangin' 'em together.

ARTHUR: So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered

this land, through the kingdom of Mercea, through--

GUARD #1: Where'd you get the coconut?

ARTHUR: We found them.

GUARD #1: Found them? In Mercea? The coconut's tropical!

ARTHUR: What do you mean?

GUARD #1: Well, this is a temperate zone.

ARTHUR: The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house

martin or the plumber may seek warmer climes in winter yet these

are not strangers to our land.

GUARD #1: Are you suggesting coconuts are migratory?

ARTHUR: Not at all, they could be carried.

GUARD #1: What -- a swallow carrying a coconut?

ARTHUR: It could grip it by the husk!

GUARD #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a

simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not

carry a 1 pound coconut.

ARTHUR: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your

master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here.

GUARD #1: Listen, in order to maintain air-speed velocity, a

swallow needs to beat its wings 43 times every second, right?

ARTHUR: Please!

GUARD #1: Am I right?

ARTHUR: I'm not interested!

GUARD #2: It could be carried by an African swallow!

GUARD #1: Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European

swallow, that's my point.

GUARD #2: Oh, yeah, I agree with that...

ARTHUR: Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court

at Camelot?!

GUARD #1: But then of course African swallows are not migratory.

GUARD #2: Oh, yeah...

GUARD #1: So they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway...

[clop clop]

GUARD #2: Wait a minute -- supposing two swallows carried it

together?

GUARD #1: No, they'd have to have it on a line.

GUARD #2: Well, simple! They'd just use a standard creeper!

GUARD #1: What, held under the dorsal guiding feathers?

GUARD #2: Well, why not?

MAYNARD: Armaments, Chapter Two, Verses Nine to Twenty-One.

BROTHER: "And Saint Atila raised the hand grenade up on high,

saying, 'Oh, Lord, bless this thy hand grenade that with it thou

mayest blow thy enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the Lord

did grin, and people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and

carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and

fruit bats, and large --"

MAYNARD: Skip a bit, Brother.

BROTHER: "And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out

the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less.

Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the

counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either

count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is

right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be

reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards

thou foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.'"

MAYNARD: Amen.

ALL: Amen.

ARTHUR: Right! One... two... five!

???: Three, sir!

ARTHUR: Three!

Father: Listen, lad. I built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was swamp. Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So, I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp, but the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands.

I always thought the best quote evar was from Raising Arizona:

 

Parole Board Member #1: "You're not just telling us what we want to hear?"

H.I.: "No sir, no way."

Parole Board Member #2: "'Cause we just want to hear the truth."

H.I.: "Well, then I guess I am telling you what you want to hear."

Parole Board Member #1: "Boy, didn't we just tell you not to do that?"

H.I.: "Yes, sir."

Parole Board Member #1: "Okay, then."

" 'What are you fighting for then?

'A Hard boiled egg.'

'That's not a lot to be fighting for.'

'No, but answer me this, when you wake up tomorrow morning, will you have found truth? Doubt it. Justice? Not likely. Freedom? No. But I can at least be hopeful that when I wake up tomorrow morning, I'll get me a hard boiled egg.' "

Priest: Matthias, son of Deuteronomy of Gath...

Matthias: Do I say yes?

Guard: Yes.

Matthias: Yes!

Priest: ...you have been found guilty by the elders of the town of uttering the name of our Lord, and so as a blasphemer...

Women disguised as bearded men: Ooh...

Priest: ...you are to be stoned to death!

Women disguised as bearded men: Aah!

Matthias: Look, I'd had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was: "That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehova!".

Women disguised as bearded men: Oooh!

Priest: Blasphemy! He said it again!

Women disguised as bearded men: Yeah! Yes! Yes!

Priest: Did you hear him?!

Women disguised as bearded men: Yeah! Yes! Yes!

Woman: Really!

Priest: Are there any women here today?

Women disguised as bearded men: Uh...ooh...no...

Priest: Very well. By virtue of the authority vested in me...

Rock thrown at Matthias: [bladonk]

Women disguised as bearded men: Ooh...

Priest: Come on! Who threw that? Who threw that stone? Come on!

Women disguised as bearded men: She did! She did! He did! He did! He did!

Woman: Sorry, I thought we'd started.

Priest: Go to the back!

Woman: Oh, dear...

Priest: Always one, isn't there? Now, where were we?

Matthias: Look, I don't think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying "Jehova"!

Women disguised as bearded men: Aiiih! He did!

Priest: You're only making it worse for yourself!

Matthias: Making it worse? How could it be worse? Jehova, Jehova, Jehova!

Women disguised as bearded men: Aiiih!

Priest: I'm warning you! If you say Jehova once more...

Rock thrown at Priest: [bladonk]

Priest: Right! Who threw that?

Matthias: Hehehe...

Priest: Come on! Who threw that?

Women disguised as bearded men: She did! She did! She did! Him! Him! Him!

Priest: Was it you?

Woman II: Yes.

Priest: Right...

Woman II: Well, you did say Jehova!

Women disguised as bearded men: Aiiih!

Rocks thrown at Woman II: [Multiple Bladonks]

Priest: Stop! Stop! Will you stop that! Stop it! Now, look! No one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle! Do you
