Favorite Quotes:
"Dang it, Jim, I'm an astronomer, not a doctor! I mean I am a doctor, but I'm not that kind of doctor! I have a doctorate, it's not the same thing! You can't help people with a doctorate! You just sit there and you're useless!" ~ Doctor Delbert Doppler, Treasure Planet
"Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to take you down to the bridge. Call that job satisfaction ? 'Cos I don't." ~ Marvin the Paranoid Android, HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy. |
