Quotable quotes
Oct. 17th, 2001 12:28 am"Life is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so." -- Ford Prefect
"That's very profound; you should send it in to Reader's Digest. They've got a page for things like that." -- Arthur Dent
Of course, that's from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by the late lamented Douglas Adams, and if I screwed it up please forgive me; I don't have a copy handy.

My high-school friends and I used to make "quote lists" of memorable and/or amusing things that each other said. That was fun. Though I don't recommend writing them in a group -- someone will always want to add something he or she (or it) said that wasn't memorable and/or amusing at all.
Tonight at Innovox I remarked that "If I wore all black people would think I'm cool, but I don't so they just think I'm erratic."
Jonathan liked that and announced that was the second-best thing he'd ever heard me say. I asked what the first was. He said it was "James is as cute as a bug."
I don't think that should count. I didn't come up with that or anything. That's just a proven fact.
