testimony:
Her attorney: Where you driving the car or were you a passenger?
The woman: I was a passenger.
The attorney: Was anyone else in the car?
The woman: No.
Her doctor testifies:
Attorney: She didn't have a neck spasm, is that correct?
Doctor: Right.
Attorney: What does that indicate?
Doctor: No spasm.
Attorney: No, well, what I want to know is, if she did have a neck spasm,
what would that indicate?
Doctor: Spasm.

"Ah-ha! A man of many talents; athlete, soldier, pilot,
statesman...and many names. In France -- Jaques Duval. In Germany --
Friedrich Schmidt. In Canada -- John White. Code name Uriel. A
valuable man, who kept valuable secrets. A man who shook hands that
shook the world.
Here in the Village he was simply known as Number 6."
Sam: I can't remember why we're here. But I should
never shop for food when I'm hungry or conscious.
Max: I'm enjoying the amusement park quality of the
lunchmeat section!

"And that was what Alai had given him; a gift so sacred even Ender was
not allowed to understand what it meant." --OSC, _Ender's Game_

You can't change fate / But don't feel so bad
Enjoy it while you can / It's just like the weather
So quit complaining brother.... No one lives forever!!
