Now that's THIS from? "I'm afraid you have us mistaken for somebody else. My name's not 'Turkey' and neither is his!" It didn't sound familiar, but it did sound like something that could have been in that. VOY: Future's End? If not that, I give up.

Ford Prefect: "I read of one planet in the seventh dimension got used as a ball in a game of intergalactic bar billiards. Got potted straight into a black hole, killed ten billion people." Is that not Star Trek The Voyage Home |

Ford Prefect: "I read of one planet in the seventh dimension got used as a ball in a game of intergalactic bar billiards. Got potted straight into a black hole, killed ten billion people." The latter was, the former was from the 1st episode of Galactica 1980. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. |

[walking on a beach (Ventura? I dunno) in Los Angeles in 1996] Have you ever been to southern California, Chakotay? No. After the Hermosa Quake of 2047, this entire region sank under 200 meters of water. It became one of the world's largest coral reefs, home to thousands of different marine species.

Sydney Stanton: Without me you would have been wiped out with the rest of them. Dr. Cole Hendron, Astronomer at Cosmos Observatory: Before you opened your pocketbook, you tried to make this a personal enterprise, a private rocket ship for your own personal use. This project was started by real humanitarians, by Marsden and Spiro. They gave me their money with no strings attached. You're not here under any special license. You're always shouting for facts, not theories. Well, remember these facts: our chance of reaching the new world is as thin as your chance of ever becoming a humanitarian. — When Worlds Collide(1951) I can't find any quotes for After Worlds Collide...

"Either die in the vacuum of space, or tell me what you thought of my poem." - Vogon Captain Jeltz I quite liked it. Interesting rhythmic devices which seem to counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor.
