| "Klaatu barada nicto" was originally in "The Day the Earth Stood Still". It was used again in "The Army of Darkness" as sort of a subtle homage to the old sci-fi movie.
Good stuff!

| Or:
Once is chance,
Twice is coincidence,
and three times is conspiracy...

| An easy one:
"You have an overdeveloped sense of revenge. It's going to get you into trouble someday."
(It's somebody's tag line here on the boards, but I don't remember whose.)

I like to say "don't plan to live forever, or you will die trying!"

Speaking of nukyular weapons, which famous person gave the following speach?
"The law I sign today directs new funds and new focus to the task of collecting vital intelligence on terrorist threats and on weapons of mass production."

Archimedes
(I thought it was "Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand and I will move the earth.")
How about this one?
"Oh Good. My dog just found the chainsaw."

-Keith | And even if he did find a place to stand in the empty void of space, he would never find a lever strong enough to support its own weight.

| A favorite of mine:
"So convenient a thing it is to be a reasonable creature, since it enables one to find or make a reason for everything one has a mind to do."
Another, probably easier to get than the first:
"It is often said that words hurt far more than any physical pain, a statement that will be disproven when I stick this fork into your head."
