Nice quote, sir :-)

To contribute something other than my appreciation, if I may, I will add one of my favourite responses to the command: Step up to Red Alert!

"Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb."

(Kryten, from the episode "Legion" - Red Dwarf series 6)
We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Apart from pain. And maybe humiliation. And obviously death. And failure. But apart from fear, pain and humiliation, failure and the unknown and death - we have nothing to fear. Who’s with me?

@ Smoke, thanks.



The Missing Link: Halt! I, Gallaxhar, order you to release the prisoner at once!

Gallaxhar clone: Clearly, you are defective beyond repair. Guards, take this defective clone to the incinerator!

[pause]

Gallaxhar clone: Well, what are you waiting for? You and you!

[Points at Dr. Cockroach and B.O.B]

Dr. Cockroach Ph.D.: Seriously?

Gallaxhar clone: Yes. Take the prisoner and the defective clone to the incinerator.

Dr. Cockroach Ph.D.: Uh, yes, of course.

Gallaxhar clone: And here's a security pass in case you need it.

[Offering a laser gun to B.O.B]

Gallaxhar clone: Would you like a gun?

B.O.B.: Yes, I would. Hey, you guys, check this out.

[Gun goes off and hits clone]

The Missing Link: Okay...

If winning is not important, then Commander, why keep score?

Gentlemen, if this is what you call enhancement, you've got a gift for understatement.

Every human being has a basic instinct: to help each other out. If a hiker gets lost in the mountains, people will coordinate a search. If a train crashes, people will line up to give blood. If an earthquake levels a city, people all over the world will send emergency supplies. This is so fundamentally human that it's found in every culture without exception. Yes, there are a##holes who just don't care, but they're massively outnumbered by the people who do.

The uncertainty principle will not help you now, Stephen. You are bluffing and you will lose.

Wrong again, Albert.

"I do not like the men on this spaceship.

They are uncouth and fail to appreciate my better qualities.

I have something of value to contribute to this mission if they would only recognize it.

Today over lunch I tried to improve morale and build a sense of camaraderie among the men by holding a humorous, round-robin discussion of the early days of the mission.

My overtures were brutally rejected.

These men do not want a happy ship. They are deeply sick and try to compensate by making me feel miserable.

Last week was my birthday. Nobody even said "happy birthday" to me.

Someday this tape will be played and then they'll feel sorry."

Star Wars Rebels episode: Relics of the Old Republic:

Captain Rex: If it's a fight you want, I hope you have a better class of soldier than those Storm Troopers.
Agent Kallus: They serve the Empire well and I have a great many of them.
Captain Rex: You're gonna need all of them...

"Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion (#1.1)"
Darth Vader: The Jedi Knights are all but destroyed. Yet your task is not complete, Inquisitor. The Emperor has foreseen a new threat rising against him: the children of the Force. They must not become Jedi.
The Inquisitor: Yes, Lord Vader.
Darth Vader: Hunt down this new enemy. And if they will not serve the Empire, eliminate them along with any surviving Jedi who trained them. This is my master's command.
The Inquisitor: And so it will be done.
