kommer med en del citat från The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy:

Arthur

"Arthur felt happy. He was terribly pleased that the day was for once working out so much according to plan. Only twenty minutes ago he had decided he would go mad, and now here he was already chasing a Chesterfield sofa across the fields of prehistoric Earth."

"He lay, panting heavily in the wet air, and tried feeling bits of himself to see where he might be hurt. Wherever he touched himself, he encountered a pain. After a short while he worked out that this was because it was his hand that was hurting."

Ford

"If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up. After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working."

"He picked up the letter Q and hurled it into a distant privet bush where it hit a young rabbit. The rabbit hurtled off in terror and didn't stop till it was set upon and eaten by a fox which choked on one of its bones and died on the bank of a stream which subsequently washed it away.

During the following weeks Ford Prefect swallowed his pride and struck up a relationship with a girl who had been a personnel officer on Golgafrincham, and he was terribly upset when she suddenly passed away as a result of drinking water from a pool that had been polluted by the body of a dead fox. The only moral it is possible to draw from this story is that one should never throw the letter Q into a privet bush, but unfortunately there are times when this is unavoidable."

"I thought you must be dead...' he said simply.

'So did I for a while,' said Ford, 'and then I decided I was a lemon for a couple of weeks. I kept myself amused all that time jumping in and out of a gin and tonic.'

Arthur cleared his throat, and then did it again. 'Where,' he said 'did you...?'

'Find a gin and tonic?' said Ford brightly. 'I found a small lake that thought it was a gin and tonic, and jumped in and out of that. At least I think it thought it was a gin and tonic."

"The Guide says that there is an art to flying,' said Ford, 'or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.'

He smiled weakly. He pointed at the knees of his trousers and held his arms up to show the elbows. They were all torn and worn through."

Zaphod

"Marvin,' he said, ' just get this elevator to go up, will you? We've got to get to Zarniwoop.'

'Why?' asked Marvin dolefully.

'I don't know,' said Zaphod, 'but when I find him, he'd better have a very good reason for me wanting to see him."

Blandat

"The answer to the Great Question...'

'Of Life, the Universe and Everything...' said Deep Thought.

'Is...' said Deep Thought, and paused.

'Is...'

'Forty-two,' said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm."

"You may not instantly see why I bring the subject up, but that is because my mind works so phenomenally fast, and I am at a rough estimate thirty billion times more intelligent than you. Let me give you an example. Think of a number, any number.'

'Er, five,' said the mattress.

'Wrong,' said Marvin. 'You see?"

"Marvin droned,

Now the world has gone to bed,

Darkness won't engulf my head,

I can see by infrared,

How I hate the night.

Now I lay me down to sleep,

Try to count electric sheep,

Sweet dream wishes you can keep,

How I hate the night."

"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't."

"Bypasses are devices that allow some people to dash from point A to point B very fast while other people dash from point B to point A very fast. People living at point C, being a point directly in between, are often given to wonder what's so great about point A that so many people from point B are so keen to get there, and what's so great about point B that so many people from point A are so keen to get there. They often wish that people would just once and for all work out where the hell they wanted to be."

"They were a double pair of Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses, which had been specially designed to help people develop a relaxed attitude to danger. At the first hint of trouble they turn totally black and thus prevent you from seeing anything that might alarm you."

"Number Two's eyes narrowed and became what are known in the Shouting and Killing People trade as cold slits, the idea presumably being to give your opponent the impression that you have lost your glasses or are having difficulty keeping awake. Why this is frightening is an, as yet, unresolved problem."

"In the beginning the Universe was created.

This has made a lot of people angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

"It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination."

"The longest and most destructive party ever held is now into its fourth generation and still no one shows any signs of leaving. Somebody did once look at his watch, but that was eleven years ago now, and there has been no follow-up.

The mess is extraordinary, and has to be seen to be believed, but if you don't have any particular need to believe it, then don't go and look because you won't enjoy it.

There have recently been some bangs and flashes up in the clouds, and there is one theory that this is a battle being fought between the fleets of several rival carpet-cleaning companies who are hovering over the thing like vultures, but you shouldn't believe anything you hear at parties, and particularly not anything you hear at this one."

"If it was an emotion, it was a totally emotionless one. It was hatred, implacable hatred. It was cold, not like ice is cold, but like a wall is cold. It was impersonal, not like a randomly flung fist in a crowd is impersonal, but like a computer-issued parking summons is impersonal. And it was deadly, again, not like a bullet or a knife is deadly, but like a brick wall across an expressway is deadly."

Det blev visst ett ganska långt inlägg...

Visst var den ur space Balls/ Det våras för rymden! Måste också bara slänga in ett längre citat från min favoritserie så klart... var inte lätt att välja!

"It was the end of the Earth year 2260, and the war had paused, suddenly and unexpectedly. .. All around us, it was as if the universe were holding its breath, waiting. All of life can be broken down into moments of transition or moments .. of revelation. This had the feeling of both."

"G'Quan wrote: 'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

-- G'Kar in Babylon 5:"Z'ha'dum"

Apornas Planet-filmerna innehåller en massa tänkvärda ord. Inte minst 6:e versen ur 29:e rullen... "Beware the beast man, for he is the devils pawn... osv" - men här är några axplock...

Taylor: "How did this upside-down society ever come into existence?"

Dr.Zaius: "You may well call it upside-down, since you are at the very bottom of it!!" (Planet of the Apes)

---

Zira: "Don't let them catch you talking!

Brent: "Why not?"

Cornelius: "Oh, but you don't understand! Only apes can talk. If they hear you speak, they will dissect you, and kill you - in that order!" (Beneath the Planet...)

---

Brent: (Sigh!) "What good did ever come from all that talking around all those tables?" (Beneath the Planet of the Apes)

Det bästa från Star Wars är ju utan tvekan:

"I find your lack of faith disturbing."

-Vader

Sen har vi ju en hel rad klassiker från Aliens:

Game over man!

-Hudson

(Marine till Vasquez): Have you ever been mistaken for a man?

(Vasquez svarar): No, have you?
