Slartibartfast: Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I think that the chances of finding out what's actually going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say, "Hang the sense of it," and keep yourself busy. I'd much rather be happy than right any day.
Arthur Dent: And are you?
Slartibartfast: Ah, no. Well, that's where it all falls down, of course.

I've heard of him and didn't he wrote a book as well?
"I have bad reflexes. I was once run over by a car being pushed by two guys." - Woody Allen
He wrote several. I recommend them all. None of them are easy to get through.

There's the one in my sig - from The Catcher in the Rye (J.D. Salinger), and then there's this one that I've always liked...
I hope it's fine mine are all novels. And there's one I really like from Fight Club (Chuck Palahniuk) - but it's a bit offensive and probably best left unsaid. But it's right at the end of the novel.
"And you know what? Accidents don't happen to people who take accidents as personal insults. If a bolt of lightning struck a friend of his, the old man would take it personal."
-Michael Corleone on his father in The Godfather (Mario Puzo)

Heard that song in a Kangaroo Jack Movie.

Winston Churchill: Madam, if I were your husband, I'd drink it!"

Since today is his birthday I thought I'd share some of my favorite author's quotes:
The world is indeed comic, but the joke is on mankind.
If religion were true, its followers would not try to bludgeon their young into an artificial conformity; but would merely insist on their unbending quest for truth, irrespective of artificial backgrounds or practical consequences.
What a man does for pay is of little significance. What he is, as a sensitive instrument responsive to the world's beauty, is everything!
Heaven knows where I'll end up - but it's a safe bet that I'll never be at the top of anything! Nor do I particularly care to be.
I couldn't live a week without a private library - indeed, I'd part with all my furniture and squat and sleep on the floor before I'd let go of the 1500 or so books I possess.
I never ask a man what his business is, for it never interests me. What I ask him about are his thoughts and dreams.
H.P. Lovecraft 20 August 1890 - 15 March 1937
