Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Bentley Banana. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bentley Banana~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Sam Kinison

Samuel Burl "Sam" Kinison (December 8, 1953 – April 10, 1992) was an American stand-up comedian and actor. Kinison was known for his intense, harsh and politically incorrect humor. A former Pentecostal preacher, he performed stand-up routines that were most often characterized by an intense style, similar to enthusiastic preachers, punctuated by his trademark scream.

Quotes

 * I would like to sing a song for my buddy Rodney, whose girl Laverne broke his heart and let him down; but what Rodney doesn't know, he's got every reason to feel so low, 'cause, Rodney, she fucked everyone in this fuckin' town.

You were the fire, you fucking bitch — they had to use your fucking hose! Oh yeah, you fucked a butcher because he said he had the biggest salami in town! I know all about you! You read Moby Dick because you thought there was dick in it! It was the only book you read; you ended up sucking the book! I was best friend, you sucked my dick, I felt guilty — how come you didn't feel guilty?! 'Cause you don't feel anything, you fucking whore! OH, OH, you oughta die, die, you fucking bitch! DIE!!!

I'm just not used to seeing one of Jerry's Kids with a fucking beer, but... Doug Bady, a man that loves Jerry Lewis, appreciates what Jerry has done. And Doug, Jerry Lewis, isn't he wonderful? Doug: Fuck him! Sam: Jesus Christ, man, what are you saying? Doug: He's a piece of shit, he's never done anything for me. Sam: You can't...you can't say this about Jerry Lewis in Las Vegas on the telethon weekend! Doug: Why not? He's never done anything for me, thirty years he's been running the telethon! Sam: What are you saying? Doug: That son of a bitch! He hasn't done a goddamn thing for me! Sam: Jerry Lewis has never done a thing for you? Doug: No! He's been doing this goddamn telethon for thirty years now, he's made, what, two or three billion dollars... Sam: Who gave him the beer? WHO GAVE HIM THE BEER?! Doug: ...I haven't seen dime one!

YOU LIVE IN A DESERT!! UNDERSTAND THAT? YOU LIVE IN A FUCKING DESERT!! NOTHING GROWS HERE! NOTHING'S GONNA GROW HERE! Come here, you see this?  This is sand.

 * I didn't think it was that big of a fucking deal, there's bigger news stories happening. There's a guy in Milwaukee with heads in his icebox, but our top story is: Sam Kinison missed the Joan Rivers Show. It's like I'm the only guy in show business that's fucked up recently. There's a couple guys that, I think, have like outdone me a little bit. Like Rick fucking James, for starters. I missed a show, I didn't torture a woman with a fucking base pipe, I'm not out on $500,000 bail. I'm not Billy Preston, who's going "ah, donde esta la fiesta?" How about Axl Rose, who has a warrant out for his arrest in the state of Missouri for inciting a riot, $300,000 worth of damage, 60 people injured, and I MISSED A SHOW!

 * You'd have done her. You'd have been just like JFK, you'd have been there in the Oval Office, Marilyn across the desk, your dick up her ass, lookin' out at the Washington Monument going, "you know, it doesn't get much better than this, doesn't it? President of the United States, dick in Marilyn Monroe, my finger on the fucking button telling the fucking Russians to get their missiles out of Cuba in twelve hours. IT DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS!

 * The Russians haven't been to the moon. You know why? Because they're space pussies... You really want to impress us? Bring back our fuckin' FLAG, asshole! Show us some moon rocks, or kiss this.

 * [On the Kurds] They're the most fucked people on Earth. You know that. They might as well change their name to the Fucks, 'cause they're fucked. We used to be the Kurds, now we're the Fucks!

 * I hate the fuckin' gall of these countries, that come to us, a week after the war, and go, "Hey. Can you help us out? Our cities are all fucked up, our highways are destroyed, our economy's shit, the people are wounded, they're outta work..." Yeah, that's basically what we wanted to do to you... And that's what we wouldn't have had to do to you if you'd just pulled your fuckin' troops out of Kuwait, instead of setting those 700 oil wells on fire, and dumpin' oil in the ocean and poisoning the fish. So fuck you; eat your poisoned fish, breathe your black air, and kiss my American ass!

 * [On Iraq] These have got to be the most stupid people on the planet. "Hey, I've got a great idea! Let's have a war with the number one military power on the planet!" But we did have to face... their weapon of death. The Scud missile. If K-Mart were a weapon's dealer, they would make: the Scud missile. But it's kind of like a smart bomb. You just fire it out of the trunk of your car... and then turn on CNN to see where it landed! So it's kind of like a smart bomb!

 * [On the Gulf War] The ground war lasted 100 hours. A hundred fuckin' hours. I've had parties go on longer than that, folks!
 * This man had to be Captain Kangaroo for over thirty FUCKING YEARS! No scandal, no controversy, drank a lot. You would too. I don't think he knew the show was going to go thirty fucking years. "Goddamn it, I'm fucking Captain Kangaroo. Thought the fucking gig would last two or three years, I didn't think I'd spend my whole fucking life as Captain Kangaroo! I was an actor, I was in the Actor's Studio, I wanted to do Death of a Salesman, I wanted to play Willy. My God, I'm Captain KANGAROO!"

 * [On 2 Live Crew] One song was 'Suck My Dick'. Not please. Not honey, do you have a minute? 'Suck My Dick'. Like soomething the Beatles coulda rolled out. "Hey, John, would you like to write 'Suck My Dick'?" "Well, I don't know, do we have time? Sounds like such a hard song to write." That was the song! 'Suck My Dick'! Fuckin' album sold two million records with a song called "Suck My Dick"! Like the guy got up one morning and went, "you know, today I wanna write a song. Today I want to write a love song. I want to write a song that tells how a woman and a man feel when they meet each other for the first time and they fall in love; I want to put into words feelings that men have always had, but they've never been able to express. All right, I think I'll call this song..." [Pauses, then the audience yells "Suck My Dick"] Yeah. It's that song that's gonna be on that fuckin' Golden Oldie rap album in ten years... "Where were you when you heard 'Suck My Dick?'" Remember those old days?

 * I'm goin', what the fuck am I bustin' my ass for, doin' HBO specials, doin' fuckin' concerts, when I could just write rap songs? How hard is this shit to do?! Here's my first rap single: "Lick Me Where I Fuck and Pee". There it is! My first rap hit! 'Lick Me Where I Fuck and Pee!" I got a hit! That's where it's at! I got another song, for men, especially for men, in general: 'You Call That A Fuck, You Lazy Bitch?' Oh! OH! This song is gonna go through the fuckin' roof, trust me! We're talkin' about a song that's gonna go through the roof! They'll call me Grammy Sammy after that fuckin' song. Wait! I got another one! I got another one! 'Who Farted in My New Car?' You can't stop me! Fuck MC Hammer, 'You Can't Touch This'- YOU CAN'T STOP ME! I'm a rap song writing machine now, look out!

Quotes about Sam Kinison

 * I was in Rochester, New York. I was an absolutely-nobody part-timer, jack-of-trades; would do whatever the radio station asked of me. And one day, Sam Kinison walked in. The mic went on, and he just spoke his mind. And he was outrageous, he was funny, he was sensitive at times. And a light bulb went off in my head, where I realized, "Oh my god, I can do this different." Just—you gotta just be yourself. … I started blowing off everything I knew about radio after that day.
 * Gregg Hughes in the documentary film Misery Loves Comedy (2015)

Hey Welcome Friends, to thewolfstar's page

"What a stupendous, what an incomprehensible machine is man! Who can endure toil, famine, stripes, imprisonment & death itself in vindication of his own liberty, and the next moment... inflict on his fellow men a bondage, one hour of which is fraught with more misery than ages of that which he rose in rebellion to oppose." Thomas Jefferson

"If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth, - certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn." Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."

"The process has to be conscious, or it would not be carried out with sufficient precision, but it also has to be unconscious, or it would bring with it a feeling of falsity and hence of guilt....To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies - all this is indispensably necessary." George Orwell

Defending Your Life

Defending Your Life is a 1991 film about the afterlife. The panel of Judgement City must decide whether a dead yuppie should be granted eternal happiness or be sent back to Earth.
 * Directed, written, and produced by Albert Brooks. Starring Albert Brooks, Meryl Streep, Lee Grant, and Rip Torn.

The first true story of what happens after you die. Tagline

Daniel Miller

 * I was driving to work this morning thinking I will be here, in two months, it'll be ten years. And, you're like my real family. Isn't that tragic? [laughter] I got a call from my mother this morning to wish me a Happy Birthday, and hinted around the fact that I wasn't making enough money, if you can call, 'Are you still making that same salary, honey?' a hint. [laughter] And my ex-wife used to say the same thing, although she never used the word 'honey'. [laughter] So, maybe in three years I can double my income?... Four years? Okay. So, you're great people to work with, and this is a great present, and I wish I could squeeze all of you into one pretty woman. [laughter] And if you'd like to go to my office, I'll try. [laughter] Thanks a lot.

Dialogue

 * [Daniel and a co-worker are in a large Jeep]
 * Daniel Miller: Why do you do this?
 * Jeep Owner: What?
 * Daniel Miller: I'm curious. I see people driving these things. What do you know that I don't? Are floods coming in? Hoover Dam broke? What's going on?
 * Jeep Owner: I like this car.
 * Daniel Miller: It's not a car, it's a battering ram. This is what Patton drove: "Hey you, soldier! Follow us!"
 * Jeep Owner: Make fun, but in an 8.5 earthquake, you'll beg for a Jeep.
 * Daniel Miller: In an 8.5 earthquake, I'll beg for a coffin.

 * Daniel Miller: Is this Heaven?
 * Bob Diamond: No it isn't Heaven?
 * Daniel Miller: Is it Hell?
 * Bob Diamond: Nope, it isn't Hell either. Actually, there is no Hell. Although I hear Los Angeles is getting pretty close.

 * Bob Diamond: For example, I use forty-eight percent of my brain. Do you know how much you use?
 * Daniel Miller: Forty... seven?
 * Bob Diamond: [laughs] Three.

 * Old lady on bus: [noticing Daniel] Ooh, so young... AIDS?
 * Daniel Miller: Oh, no... car accident.

 * Club Comedian: And you sir. How did you die?
 * Daniel Miller: On stage, like you.

 * Bob Diamond: Your honors, Miss Foster and I have had this argument for a long time. I think the act itself is what's important, but she wants to keep enlarging it until everything loses its meaning. If I fix the flat tire on your car, and two years later I lose your garden hose, according to you I'm not going to get any credit for the flat, I'm just a dumb guy who lost the hose!

 * Bob Diamond: Did we ever stop to think that this young boy had a bond with his father? I don't think it had anything to do with the friend. I just think Daniel couldn't lie to his dad. That's all.
 * Lena Foster: You're nodding, Mr. Miller. Does that mean you agree with Mr. Diamond?
 * Daniel Miller: Oh, yes. I had a bond with my father. I pretty much never lied to him.
 * Lena Foster: You never lied to your father? Would you like me to show you at least 500 examples?
 * Daniel Miller: I said "pretty much" never lied. I didn't say I never, ever lied. You have to lie sometimes... in an emergency. But, ah, it doesn't mean the bond is affected. If you've got the bond, the bond is always there, and if you have to lie occasionally you're not going to interfere with the bond. You know, the bond can wait for a little lie and... in the end it's there for you. You know, sometimes in the middle of a lie I found that the bond would kick in... maybe squeeze a little truth out.
 * Bob Diamond: Psst, wrap it up.
 * Daniel Miller: I'm through.

 * Lena Foster: What did you finally invest in, Mr. Miller, do you remember?
 * Daniel Miller: [under his breath] Um, uh... cattle.
 * Lena Foster: And what happened to the cattle?
 * Daniel Miller: I don't know; I never got a straight answer. All I know is that their teeth fell out.

 * Daniel Miller: You have to be okay with yourself before you can ever be okay with anyone else

Michelle Gomez

Michelle Gomez (born 1966) is a Scottish actress, most noted for appearing in The Book Group playing Janice McCann and Green Wing playing Sue White.

Quotes

 * I was trying to explain that this is actually a proper job but just feeling terribly ridiculous as real doctors and real patients were wheeled past," Gomez says, "There are moments when you think: what am I doing with my life?
 * An interview with Foxtel magazine.

 * I thought, wow, those people are showing off like me, that’s what I do at home. I can do that and get paid. That was my first realisation that maybe I wasn’t going to be a secretary or a postwoman or a lollipop woman. I did have a moment of thinking I liked the lollipop woman idea. But can you imagine? I would be like, ‘F**king move your car!’ I don’t think that would work.
 * An interview with the Sunday Herald talking about when she went to see Kiss Me Kate when she was seven.

 * There are times when you come across somebody that’s really impressive, someone that’s got a proper living and really does make a difference to people’s lives. Then I do feel a bit of a wanker, admitting I’m an actress. That’s hard to say to someone who may be making a difference. But I don’t know how I could change things.
 * An interview with the Sunday Herald saying why she thinks acting is not as worthy as other professions.

Talk:24 (TV series)

Unidentified episodes
I restructured the headings of this article to more closely follow the intent of the standard "Unknown episode" heading of TV shows, which is their version of "Unsourced" (aka "Attributed"). When someone can identify a partial source in other types of articles, they typically add such information in a source line under the quote. The unique nature of 24 makes it possible to group such partially-sourced quotes into days (seasons) and remove the clutter of redundant source lines, since much of the cast changes between seasons, frequently making the appropriate season obvious.

This splitting of the unknown-ep quotes had been done earlier by placing the sections under the appropriate days, but that missed the intention of "Sourced" vs. "Unsourced", which can be summarized by the simplistic idea:
 * Everything in "sourced" is good; everything is "Unsourced" is bad.

That is, everything above the "Unsourced" (or equivalent) heading should be considered useful quotes; anything below it is mere rumor. For that reason, anything that can't easily be found (and therefore readily verified) should be grouped at the bottom. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 07:06, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Noone gives a damn. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.214.46.141 (talk • contribs) 09:47, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Standard headings
This show is a pain in the posterior for identifying episodes, since every single "title" is merely a 1-hour time span, half of them are identical to the other half except for "am" or "pm", and each "title" is reused each season, but with a different order. Because of this, I've added a complete set of episode headings for the five extant seasons. The "titles" are italicized, per the current Templates/TV shows, and each has a episode number that allows the complete heading to be unique for each show.

Because this creates a huge table of contents for an article that is still fairly sparsely populated, I see a real need for a custom TOC in the near future, even though this is an ongoing series. One advantage is that we know an entire season's "titles" the moment the first episode begins (i.e., when we discover the first starting time, giving us the other consecutive 23), so it only requires a once-a-year effort to expand the TOC. I might do this myself if no one else wants to implement it. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:57, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Murray Gell-Mann

Murray Gell-Mann (15 September 1929 – 24 May 2019) was an American physicist who received the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the theory of elementary particles.

Quotes

 * Possibly we will find an elegant model, in agreement with observation, that yields the pattern of lepton masses as well as the pattern of quark bare masses and even relates hadrons and leptons. This is our dream; touch us!
 * (quote frem p. 336)

 * Today the network of relationships linking the human race to itself and to the rest of the biosphere is so complex that all aspects affect all others to an extraordinary degree. Someone should be studying the whole system, however crudely that has to be done, because no gluing together of partial studies of a complex nonlinear system can give a good idea of the behaviour of the whole.
 * Murray Gell-Mann in ISSS The Primer Project International Society for the Systems Sciences (ISSS) seminar (12 October - 10 November 1997).

 * I thought of killing myself but soon decided that I could always try MIT and then kill myself later if it was that bad but that I couldn't commit suicide and then try MIT afterwards. The two operations, suicide and going to MIT, don't commute...
 * "The Making of a Physicist : A Talk with Murray Gell-Mann" at Edge.org (2003).

 * Just because things get a little dingy at the subatomic level doesn't mean all bets are off.
 * Attributed to Murray Gell-Mann by Penn Jillette, Penn Radio (14 February 2007).

 * Three principles — the conformability of nature to herself, the applicability of the criterion of simplicity, and the "unreasonable effectiveness" of certain parts of mathematics in describing physical reality — are thus consequences of the underlying law of the elementary particles and their interactions. Those three principles need not be assumed as separate metaphysical postulates. Instead, they are emergent properties of the fundamental laws of physics.
 * TED talk on beauty and truth in physics —video timecode 14m28s (March 2007).

 * You don't need something more to get something more. That's what emergence means. Life can emerge from physics and chemistry plus a lot of accidents. The human mind can arise from neurobiology and a lot of accidents, the way the chemical bond arises from physics and certain accidents. Doesn't diminish the importance of these subjects to know they follow from more fundamental things plus accidents.
 * TED talk on beauty and truth in physics — video TC 14m48s (March 2007).

 * If I have seen further than others, it is because I am surrounded by dwarfs.
 * As quoted in "Wilson vs Watson: The blessing of great enemies" by Amanda Gefter in New Scientist (10 September 2009); this is a play upon the famous statement by Isaac Newton: "If I have seen further it is only by standing on the shoulders of giants."

 * Niels Bohr brain-washed a whole generation of physicists into believing that the problem had been solved fifty years ago [Gell-Mann's comment on the Copenhagen interpretation]
 * In The Nature of the Physical Universe, the 1976 Nobel Conference, (1979, p. 29)

The Quark and the Jaguar (1994)

 * While many questions about quantum mechanics are still not fully resolved, there is no point in introducing needless mystification where in fact no problem exists. Yet a great deal of recent writing about quantum mechanics has done just that.
 * Ch. 12 : Quantum Mechanics and Flapdoodle, p. 167.

 * The principal distortion disseminated ... is the implication, or even the explicit claim, that measuring the polarization, circular or plane, of one of the [ EPRB ] photons somehow affects the other photon. In fact, the measurement does not cause any physical effect to propagate from one photon to the other. ...If on one branch of history, the plane polarization of one photon is measured and thereby specified with certainty, then on the same branch of history the circular polarization of the other photon is also specified with certainty. On a different branch of history the circular polarization of one of the photons may be measured, in which case the circular polarization of both photons is specified with certainty. On each branch, the situation is like that of Bertlmann's socks, described by John Bell... Bertlmann... always wears one pink and one green sock. If you see just one... you know immediately the other... Yet no signal is propogated... Likewise no signal passes from one photon to the other in the experiment that confirms quantum mechanics. No action at a distance takes place.
 * Ch. 12 : Quantum Mechanics and Flapdoodle, p. 172.

 * The false report that measuring one of the photons immediately affects the other leads to all sorts of unfortunate conclusions. ...the alleged effect ...would violate the requirement of relativity theory that no signal... can travel faster than the speed of light. If it were to do so, it would appear to observers in some states of motion that the signal were traveling backward in time.
 * Ch. 12 : Quantum Mechanics and Flapdoodle, pp. 172-173 see EPR paradox.

Quotes about Gell-Mann

 * I had barely sat down when he began to tell me... that science writers were "ignoramuses" and a "terrible breed" who invariably got things wrong: only scientists were really qualified to present their work to the masses. As time went on, I felt less offended, since it became clear that Gell-Mann held most of his scientific colleagues in contempt as well.
 * John Horgan, The End of Science (1996) p. 212

 * One of the things that makes Gell-Mann so insufferable is that he is almost always right.
 * John Horgan, The End of Science (1996) p. 215

 * Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect works as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward-reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them. In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story-and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read with renewed interest as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about far-off Palestine than it was about the story you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
 * Michael Crichton, Why Speculate (26 April 2002)

Disputed

 * The Feynman [Problem-Solving] Algorithm:  (1) Write down the problem.   (2) Think real hard.   (3) Write down the solution.
 * Variant: Dick's method is this. You write down the problem. You think very hard. ... Then you write down the answer. (From an interview with Sidney Coleman, reported by James Gleick in Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman (1992), p. 315.)
 * A remark about Richard Feynman's genius, often attributed to Gell-Mann, but no specific citations have yet been found.

Misattributed

 * That which is not forbidden is mandatory.
 * This has become a common phrase among quantum scientists, and is often attributed to Gell-Mann, but no citations of original source has yet been located; it is seems to have been derived from the assertion made in the ant-colony of The Sword in the Stone (1938), the first part of The Once and Future King by T. H. White : EVERYTHING NOT FORBIDDEN IS COMPULSORY.
