We-ell, as you
We-ell, as you all probably know, a while ago we had a thread for quotes ((*thinks: Hey! Joe Moses/Snape! Stop reading my post over aloud, it's very distracting"*)).
Rather than resurrect the old one *again*, I'm just going to make a new one because I'm lazy like that. Silence your sniggering!
Well. Right. Quotes! Anything and everything! Wee!

"Hello, sick people and their loved ones. In the interest of saving time and avoiding a lot of boring conversations later, I'm Dr. Gregory House. You can call me Greg. I'm one of three doctors staffing this clinic this morning."
"Short, sweet, grab a file."
"This little ray of sunshine is Dr. Lisa Cuddy. Dr. Cuddy runs the entire hospital, so she's much too busy for all of you. I am a bored... certified diagnostician with a double specialty of infectious disease and nephrology. I am also the only doctor employed at this hospital who is here against his will.
[to Cuddy] That is true, isn't it?
So. Who wants me?"
~House. Speaking of which, what did they do to his hair for the upcoming season?! Did they seriously cut it?!

Now, I had to copy this directly from imdb, there's no way I could have remembered it all... anyway, this was pretty much the only good scene in the movie. I wish I could quote it, but I get it more mixed up than they do. (and believe me, they mess it up quite a lot in the movie, but not in the part I'm quoting.... anyway, enjoy!!!!)
Hawkins: I've got it! I've got it! The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle; the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true! Right?
Griselda: Right. But there's been a change: they broke the chalice from the palace!
Hawkins: They *broke* the chalice from the palace?
Griselda: And replaced it with a flagon.
Hawkins: A flagon...?
Griselda: With the figure of a dragon.
Hawkins: Flagon with a dragon.
Griselda Right.
Hawkins: But did you put the pellet with the poison in the vessel with the pestle?
Griselda: No! The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon! The vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true!
Hawkins: The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon; the vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true.
Griselda: Just remember that.

TNO! YOU'RE HERE! I THOUGHT YOU'D LEFT FOREVER! *gives enormous virtual hug* I haven't seen you in ages!

Hey there was one book in which they went to a circus in space. It was put on by all the constellations. I think that was probably my favorite MP book. :)
She was really strict in the books......
(March 12, 2010 - 6:09 pm)
Yeah, I love how the children are like completely terrified of her in the books. And yet she is still awesome. *nodnod*
The play actually was pretty faithful to the books, more so than the movie (not that the movie deviated terrible much)... Some of the scenes (i.e. anything with Miss Andrews, the kite scene) were straight from the book, although Miss Andrews' stay was elongated by a few hours to a day in order for coherency.
And they had Robertson Ay! I was so happy! Especially when he blew up the sink!
(March 14, 2010 - 12:59 pm)
Hahaha, Yah. Hilarious. But just the fact that they weren't scared of her (well, not really, anyway) in the movie made it quite different, not to mention all the other stuff. :)
(March 16, 2010 - 6:01 pm)
It took me a while to get used to the fact that they were so different from the movie. I was a bit disturbed for a while, but eventually I convinced myself to think of them as a whole different world, and then I absolutely loved the books, probably more than the movie, but only because there was much more stuff happening, and it didn't have the 'Disney Touch'. I'm not a fan of Disney, in case you couldn't tell, but I love their old movies like MP and The Ugly Dachshund, and things like that. Ooh, Freaky Friday. My dad and I sing the song from that all the time. And when I was little I was always scared I would say *what they said* and switch places with someone. I didn't! :D

The only tale from the books I vividly remember right now is the one where Jane and Michael get candy cane horses, and they ask, "Will they ever fly away?" (or something along those lines) and the answer is "Don't worry, they only fly away when the moon turns blue" (again, or something like that) and that night, Jane and Michael are falling asleep, and the moon turns blue and their candy cane horses fly out the window.
That story actually weirded me out quite a bit at the time. But, the last time I read MP I was like 9 or 10 or something.
(March 14, 2010 - 3:55 pm)
*giggle* I don't really remember that.... Hm. I was probably thirteen or so (random guess), so I wasn't weirded out. :D

Random Quotes from The Play:
Arnold: So we have A) Wheaties, B) Lettuce, and C) Charcoal Briquettes. Did I mention the Wheaties? I think I forgot the Wheaties. Alright, so let's say the Wheaties are D. You got that, Lucien? The Wheaties are D. We have A) Wheaties, B) Lettuce, C) Charcoal Briquettes, and D) Wheaties. ...Something is screwed up here.
*
Jack: ...On a recent outing, Lucien terrified a group of schoolchildren by jumping on top of a cow and shouting, "Fire! Fire! This cow be on fire!"...
*
Barry: Let me tell you one of the major problems of golf. Maybe the major problem of golf. Golf... is just a game, Hodges. It's just a game.
Mrs. Hedges: Hedges. My name is Hedges.
Barry: I have no reason to doubt that, Hodges.
*
Lucien: Norman. He be the doughnut man.
Clarke: The doughnut man? Why do you call him that?
Lucien: Because he be fat with doughnuts.
*
Arnold: Today, Melvin called me a nut. So I called him a banana republic. Boy, did I get even or what?
*
Jack: Arnold, what did you say to Helen?
Arnold: I told her that she had a tic!
Jack: Arnold, you can't just go around insulting people! Helen's in the back of the van right now, crying, and she won't talk to anyone!
Arnold: She started it, Jack! She said, and I mean this frankly, Jack, that I was all wet!
Jack: ...You are all wet!
Arnold: Oh yeah.
Jack: Yeah.
Arnold: ...Well, you got a tic!
*
Arnold: Loose lips sink ships! Loose lips sink ships!
*
Lucien: We got no trees.
*
Arnold: Well, frankly, in Russia, rugs are more important than golf!
*
Jack: They're throwing me a surprise party tonight. Some surprise. So far, Norman has told me twice, Lucien has told me three times, and Arnold, who is the coordinator of this little plot, told me that if I wanted balloons or noisemakers I would have to buy them myself because he just doesn't have the time.

Voldemort: I'm talking about your niece, Bellatrix. And yours, Lucius and Narcissa. She has just married the werewolf, Remus Lupin. You must be so proud.
Always have, and always will, smirk at that line. Voldemort has a very subtle sense of humor.
********************************************************************
Mewtwo: You will not defile this place! It does not belong to you-any more than I do!
Favorite line of all time. Mewtwo, like Vetinari (according to TNO, because I have never read Discworld) manages to be completely epic every time he opens his mouth. He actually doesn't ever open his mouth, because he is psychic, so he talks with telepathy, and...yeah.
*******************************************************************
Snape: Do you remember me telling you that we are practicing non-verbal spells, Potter?
Harry: Yes.
Snape: Yes, sir.
Harry: There's no need to call me 'sir', Professor.
XD. 'Nuff said.
*****************************************************************
And a few from my hilarious life:
Mom: Glass can break.
Little sis: Glaaaas caaaan breaaak. (Only she said it with her lips poofed out, so it sounded really funny.)
Mom: Do not mock me! (This is once she had recovered from her hysterics.) You will be punished!
Little sis: Puuuuniiished. (Again, with her lips poofed out.)
Me and my little brother were having hysterics by this time. I never heard a baby do that before in my life. But I hope I do again. This never gets old.

Thermonuclear weapons could also change the face of the planet forever, but that didn't mean they were to be viewed as models for the ambitious go-getter.
