"Me failing English? That's unpossible!"--Ralph Wiggum from The Simpsons

Quotes



"Las Vegas Boulevard is jammed, and I am in love."

Just Another Moment by Midnight_Caller


Mad Girl's Love Song -- Sylvia Plath

"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.

I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.

I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"

Sylvia Plath

 

"Those are just theories and wild speculation!" Sara replied. "So I'm not sure it's the appropriate forum to discuss this topic."

"Ms. Sidle, I am the 'moderator' of this forum and we will discuss topics where I deem them fit to discuss," admonished the judge.

Wescott sighed. "Fine," she declared, dropping the line of inquiry altogether, as she'd learned in the Chris Carter School of TV Character Development. "Have you ever asked your boss if he wanted to sleep with you?"
.....

"Moving on," Wescott cut her off sharply. "Your Honor, let the record show that Ms. Sidle has committed multiple..." she glanced down at the packet. "'PSVs' against her boss."

"Objection! PSVs?" questioned the DA.

"Personal space violations," clarified the judge, before muttering. "A four-year old could figure it."

......

"Did you...synchronize your movements in a perfect expression of Geek Symmetry?" the DA read aloud.

"I...don't even know what that means." Grissom was bewildered.

The DA explained. "A particularly enthusiastic group of eyewitnesses described how you talked about animals seeking symmetry in their mates and how you and Ms. Sidle stood and moved in a symmetrical fashion while joining hands and singing 'Come What May' with Slim Shady and Mr. Fluffy -- oops, wrong page -- ah yes, your movements personified the symmetry you were describing later, as if your subconscious was telling you that Ms. Sidle was your perfect mate." The DA raised his eyes from the packet. "Any of this sound familiar?"
......

Grissom left the stand and went to find the rest of his team. Catherine cut him off. "I'm not letting your un-'ship eat up my valuable screentime!" she informed him, before stalking off to have another affair with a building inspector and make sure everybody knew exactly who had the most active sex life in the Las Vegas Crime Lab.

Molly Walker (EOlivet), "Witness to the Convolution"

what the heck? you all should go off and read this awesome parody! Run, don't walk!


"... It's just ah, you tell me to get a life and then I get one,
and then you expect me to be there in a moment's notice, it's ah, confusing."

Sara Sidle to Gil Grissom in the final scene of "Let The Sellers Beware"


"I am just a road kill on the Dawson and Joey highway," 

Jen on "Dawson's Creek"


Shakespeare Sonnet-a-Day

LXXX.

O, how I faint when I of you do write,
Knowing a better spirit doth use your name,
And in the praise thereof spends all his might,
To make me tongue-tied, speaking of your fame!
But since your worth, wide as the ocean is,
The humble as the proudest sail doth bear,
My saucy bark inferior far to his
On your broad main doth wilfully appear.
Your shallowest help will hold me up afloat,
Whilst he upon your soundless deep doth ride;
Or being wreck'd, I am a worthless boat,
He of tall building and of goodly pride:
Then if he thrive and I be cast away,
The worst was this; my love was my decay.

"Justin, Sideshow Bob called; he wants his hair back."

--- Shepard Smith (Fox News), on American Idol 2002


 

"I can't help but dream about a kind of criticism that would try not to judge but to bring an oeuvre, a sentence, an idea to life; it would light fire, watch the grass grow, listen to the wind, and catch the sea foam in the breeze and scatter it. It would multiply not judgments but signs of existence; it would summon them, drag them from their sleep. Perhaps it would invent them sometimes--all the better. All the better. Criticism that hands down sentences sends me to sleep; I'd like a criticism of scintillating leaps of the imagination. It would not be sovereign or dressed in red. It would bear the lightning of possible storms." 
--- Foucault


"What could possibly be exciting about a game where almost nothing happens?"
--- Molly Walker (Eolivet), "Stealing Signs"

Moby on Baldness (Bald Heads Together , 6/4/2002 - New Zealand)

.... but it's true, bald white guys all kind of look the same.
the irony though is that norman cook doesn't shave his head anymore, and he's quite a bit taller than i.
maybe there should be a buddy movie featuring lots of guys with shaved heads.
kind of like '101 dalmatians' but with bald guys. and some evil glen close/monty burns character could be after us for our stubbly heads. maybe for tire traction or something.....


Sobell on "Sex, Lies and Larva"

"At one point, he's shivering on a crate as he observes the pig. Sara shows up. Gil pushes over a second box, and Sara sits down. She then opens a large bag and hands Gil a thermos. He smiles at her -- something that really does peel about ten years off his face -- and Sara continues by wrapping a blanket around him. She then hunkers down to keep him company, and the camera pulls back to show them huddled together, reviewing lab notes. It's really kind of sweet, except for the festering, vermin-riddled pig decomposing at their feet. Young forensics investigators in love, I guess. "-- Sobell, www.televisionwithoutpity.com 


The world 
was whole because 
it shattered. When it shattered, 
then we knew what it was. 
-- Louise Gluck, 'Formaggio'


"I believe that we're all looking for out isomers, not opposites."
--- Isometry,  by Syntax, Chapter 9 (MSR fanfic)


Scully: He had bulk teeth? No, he didn't. And that's significant, how?
Mulder: I'm just trying to be thorough.  --- "Bad Blood"


" why do we expect politicians to be noble and honest and wise and wonderful? 90% of the time politicians are moderately competent, very ambitious weirdos. i'm not being cynical, but politicians are rarely inspirational, and it's odd that we are so often disappointed by them. it's odd because you think that we would, for the most part, assume that politicians are going to be self-interested, moderately competent, ambitious weirdos. and it's hard to be too disappointed by a self-interested, moderately competent, ambitious weird. "
 --- Moby, 5/7/02. France


'You never felt jealousy, did you, Miss Eyre? Of course not: I need not ask you; because you never felt love. You have both sentiments yet to experience: your soul sleeps; the shock is yet to be given which shall waken it. You think all existence lapses in as quiet a flow as that in which your youth has hitherto slid away. Floating on with closed eyes and muffled ears, you neither see the rocks bristling not far off in the bed of the flood, nor hear the breakers boil at their base. But I tell you- and you may mark my words- you will come some day to a craggy pass in the channel, where the whole of life's stream will be broken up into whirl and tumult, foam and noise: either you will be dashed to atoms on crag points, or lifted up and borne on by some master-wave into a calmer current- as I am now. " -- "Jane Eyre"
