| �The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.� �There is a theory that states: �If anyone finds out what the universe is for it will disappear and be replaced by something more bizarrely inexplicable.� There is another theory that states: �This has already happened.� � �This planet has--or rather had--a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it was not the small pieces of paper that were unhappy.� �Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.� �To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.� �With a rubber duck, one's never alone.� [The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy] �You live and learn. At any rate, you live.� |
