Quotable
-When she died she left me
with a nice impression.
-You didn’t know her.
-I knew OF her. That was
pretty lovely...give and take.
-Superficial. Her AND you!
-I’ll accept that. Omar Khayyam
said he was never deep in
anything save wine.
Leave out the wine, we got you.
-“But I am one acquainted with the night.”
-Acquainted. That’s the keyword.
Nothing serious.
-It’s that way for everyone.
-This conversation over?
-This one only.
-Then I can stop wincing, waiting
for Hamlet to, like, emerge?
-Not tonight. “Look for me tomorrow,
you’ll find a grave man.”
-Serious?
-He meant dead. So, pretty serious.
-I’m running QUOTE BLOCKER on you!
People can talk without all this literary crap!
-Perfect program for the silly age.
