Every kiss carved his name on another bullet.taglines

Jim Reardon

 * This isn't a two-for-a-nickel shooting. Two professional killers show up in a small town and put the blast on a filling station attendant. A nobody. There was no attempted robbery. They were out for only one thing. To kill him. Why?
 * [to Dum Dum] You don't know what the Swede did with the money or you wouldn't be here tearing his room to pieces. But maybe you do know things that put together with the things I know will tell me where the money is.
 * [to Dum Dum, about Kitty] I think she knows where the money is...The Swede and some girl checked into an Atlantic City hotel the night of the holdup. Two days later, the girl took a powder. I've got an idea the dough went with her.
 * It was Kitty Collins and not the Swede that reaped the golden harvest...When the gang met to divvy up after the robbery, the Swede pulled a fast one and walked off with the whole take...That same night, he and Kitty were together in Atlantic City. She walked out on him a couple of days later. The money disappeared when she did.
 * [to Kitty] As soon as you could break away, you left him flat. I'd like to have known the old Kitty Collins. You were in the clear because no one knew you'd been with the Swede. You had nothing to fear from anyone. Too bad it had to catch up with you now.
 * [to Colfax] He (Dum Dum) said Kitty brought him word at midnight about the changed meeting place. The half-way house didn't burn down 'till nearly three in the morning. That meant Kitty had a partner. And who could it be but you.

Sam Lubinsky

 * You're through...That hand will never be good again - not for fighting...It's a lucky thing. You aren't punchy yet. Now suppose it was your brains were scrambled instead of your hand.
 * She was always in love with him...and I was always in love with her. It worked out fine for me, anyway.

Charleston

 * For nearly two years, we weren't never more than eight and a half feet apart. That's how big the cell was.
 * You see that bright star in the center...brightest star in all the heavens. Only it's so far away, it don't seem like it.
 * A girl don't write. That don't mean she's sick like you might think. Not necessarily.
 * If it's as big as you claim, it's not gonna be any easy pickings. Nothin' that big ever is.
 * Stop listening to those golden harps, Swede. They can land you into a lot of trouble.

'Blinky' Franklin

 * If that guy don't call by 10:30, we better get started anyway. Yeah, each one steal his own heap [car]...I never was in a hat factory before... Gimme two cards. I'll take three. If this rain keeps us, they'll be mud up to the axles on them hick roads. How many miles of dirt road is it to the half-way house? I don't like anything about capers in the rain. Rain always gives me the creeps. I hate rain.
 * Step on it, can't you get any more out of it than this? Looks like a good clean getaway. That's too bad you had to shoot that guy at the gate...Did it look like 200 G's to you? Most money I ever saw at once. Wonder if the others are plannin' the same luck we are. They should be - they got away before we did. I guess the Swede made it all right. I seen him running for his heap and nobody was between him and it. Sure, he got away. Keep your eyes peeled for Polk Road. It's a left turn there, yeah. A left on Polk Road. We oughta be there in another five minutes. Hello, farmer.

Big Jim Colfax

 * The job comes first. But afterwards, we'll have business together.
 * If there's one thing I hate, it's a double-crossing dame...the Swede never had a chance, did he? Any one of the gang that ran onto him would have been sure to knock him off. You might say Kitty Collins signed his death warrant.
 * If you do run onto her, let me know, will ya? After you're through with her, I'd like to have a word or two with Kitty myself. We got some unfinished business.

Kitty Collins

 * I hadn't seen him for a long time, but the minute I laid eyes on him, I knew. He was always looking at me. And it doesn't sound like very much, but he always carried a handkerchief I'd given him...I hated my life, only I wasn't strong enough to get away from it. All I could do was dream of some big payoff that would let me quit the whole racket. The Swede was my chance to make my dream come true. If I could only be alone with him for a few hours. But Colfax was always there. I thought it was hopeless. Then suddenly, my chance came.
 * Colfax sent me to tell the others what had happened and that they would meet at the farmer's instead. I went to Blinky Franklin first, and then to Dum Dum. I saved the Swede 'till last. It was nearly two in the morning when I got there.

Others

 * Swede Andersen: Nobody can cheat me and get away with it.
 * Nick Adams: He wasn't a bad sort of fella...easy enough to get along with.
 * Lilly: Right then, I knew the boat had sailed and poor Ole had fallen in love with dynamite.

Dialogue

 * Al: [after learning that the dinner menu is unavailable until 6] Everything we want's on the dinner. That the way you work it, huh? What do you do here nights?
 * Max: They eat the dinner. They all come here and eat the big dinner.
 * Manager: That's right.
 * Al: You're a pretty bright boy, aren't ya??
 * Manager: Sure.

 * Max: I'll tell ya what's gonna happen. We're gonna kill the Swede. You know big Swede that works over at that filling station?
 * Manager: You mean Pete Lunn?
 * Max: If that's what he calls himself. Comes in every night at six o'clock, don't he?
 * Manager: Yes, if he comes.
 * Al: We know all about that.
 * Manager: What are ya gonna kill him for? What did Pete Lunn ever do to you?
 * Max: He never had a chance to do anything to us. He never even seen us.
 * Al: He's only gonna see us once.
 * Manager: What are ya gonna kill him for?
 * Max: We're killin' him for a friend.

 * Swede: There's nothin' I can do about it.
 * Nick: I could tell you what they look like.
 * Swede: I don't want to know what they're like. Thanks for comin'.
 * Nick: Don't you want me to go and see the police?
 * Swede: No. That wouldn't do any good.
 * Nick: Isn't there something I could do?
 * Swede: There ain't anything to do.
 * Nick: Couldn't you get out of town?
 * Swede: No. I'm through with all that runnin' around.
 * Nick: Why do they wanna kill ya?
 * Swede: I did something wrong - once. Thanks for comin'.

 * Reardon: Good morning, Stella.
 * Stella: Good morning, dream boy.

 * Swede: Do you like the fights?
 * Kitty: I'm afraid I've never seen one.
 * Swede: No kiddin'.
 * Kitty: I hate brutality, Mr. Andersen. The idea of two men beating each other to a pulp makes me ill.
 * Lilly: I saw all Swede's fights.
 * Kitty: How wonderful of you! I could never bear to see a man I really cared for being hurt. [Kitty is called away, and slinks off]
 * Swede: She's beautiful.

 * Swede: You know what harps mean?
 * Charleston: Angels play 'em.
 * Swede: They mean Ireland. That's why they call them Mick's harps. Kitty's Irish. She give me this.

 * Kitty: [To Big Jim] What'sa matter with you?...You're nervous. You're all in a sweat.
 * Colfax: You keep your mouth shut if you don't want it slapped shut. You've been askin' for it lately.
 * Swede: Hey!
 * Colfax: Any objections?
 * Swede: Yeah.
 * Dum Dum: Keep out of this, Swede. She's his girl.
 * Kitty: Mind your own business, Swede. I can take care of myself. [To Big Jim] You touch me and you won't live 'till morning.

 * Blinky: He shouldn't have hit you...
 * Doctor: Beats me. I don't know what keeps him going.
 * Reardon: Will he be able to talk anymore?
 * Doctor: He's dead now, except he's breathing.

 * Swede: Swell idea you guys had. Leave me holdin' the bag at the half-way house while you split up the dough, huh?...
 * Colfax: The half-way house burnt down last night. That's why we came here.
 * Swede: Somebody ought to have let me know.
 * Colfax: You were told, you're here.
 * Swede: Next time, play it straight.

 * Kitty: I thought you didn't like the Green Cat.
 * Reardon: Only when I'm not expected.

 * Kitty: Can you put me away, Mr. Reardon?
 * Reardon: Blinky Franklin made a deathbed statement under oath. There's no stronger testimony. And there's a chambermaid in an Atlantic City hotel that has a memory for faces. Well?
 * Kitty: Oh, there's no use kidding myself. I'd do anything you wanted. Give you every penny I could lay my hands on.
 * Reardon: How many pennies is that?
 * Kitty: Well, I might be able to raise $65, $70 thousand at the most.
 * Reardon: Not enough.
 * Kitty: That's all I could possibly get together. I'm not stalling, Mr. Reardon, not now. I know when I'm beaten. I'm fighting for my life, not Kitty Collins' life, but mine. I have a home now and a husband. I've got a life worth fighting for, and there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do to keep it just the way it is.
 * Reardon: Well, we might still be able to do business if you put a prize in with the CrackerJack.
 * Kitty: What do you mean?
 * Reardon: I wanna fall guy when it's over.
 * Kitty: Who would that be?
 * Reardon: Colfax.
 * Kitty: Even the old Kitty Collins never sang, Mr. Reardon.

 * Kitty: I'm taking my life in my hands coming to you like this, but I just couldn't stand by, not after what you did for me that time in Philly.
 * Swede: Forget that. Why are you here now?
 * Kitty: Colfax thinks I'm on my way to New York. He's meeting me there tomorrow. But I just had to come to you, Swede, and tell you.
 * Swede: Tell me what?
 * Kitty: They're planning to double-cross you.
 * Swede: Who is?
 * Kitty: Colfax and the others. They don't intend for you ever to get a smell of the money from tomorrow's job.
 * Swede: How do you know that?
 * Kitty: Colfax sprung it tonight on Dum Dum and Blinky right after you left. First, he called you names and said dirty things about you. And then he sprung it. What if they were not to go to the half-way house after the robbery? You'd go there, but they'd be someplace else, and so would the money.
 * Swede: What did Blinky and Dum Dum say?
 * Kitty: They fell right in with the idea.
 * Swede: Where are they gonna meet?
 * Kitty: The farmhouse north of town on Polk Road, eleven miles out on the turnpike. Colfax hates you, Swede, so much so that Blinky and Dum Dum have caught it from him and they hate you too.
 * Swede: Thanks for putting me wise, Kitty.
 * Kitty: What are you gonna do? Swede - what are you gonna do?
 * Swede: I'm gonna do them like they mean to do me.
 * Kitty: Promise me one thing. You won't give me away. If Colfax ever found out what I did...
 * Swede: Don't you worry.
 * Kitty: You know why Colfax hates you? Because of me. He's no fool. He sees what's happened.
 * Swede: Why did you ever go back to him, Kitty?
 * Kitty: Maybe because I hate him. I'm poison, Swede, to myself and everybody around me. I'd be afraid to go with anyone I love for the harm I'd do them. I don't care harming him.
 * Swede: [He pulls Kitty into his arms] You're not meetin' him tomorrow.
 * Kitty: All right, Swede. [They embrace and kiss passionately]

 * Colfax: I guess our luck's run out, Kitty. [To Reardon] You didn't have anything on her before now, did ya?
 * Reardon: No, but I had to make you think so. And I was sure you'd try to knock me off before I could find out Kitty was your wife.
 * Colfax: You knew that too, huh?
 * Reardon: Married people can't testify against each other. Otherwise, I would have tried playing you off one against each other, instead of making myself a target for those gunmen of yours...
 * Lubinsky: What I don't get is, why you sent those two killers to blast the Swede? He wasn't doing ya any harm there in Brentwood. Why didn't ya let well enough alone?
 * Colfax: I couldn't. Suppose one of the gang ran into him, same as I did. They were after the money, if he had a chance to tell his story, and that would've been the end of it. They knew Kitty and I were married and they've seen through the frame-up. Anyhow, if I hadn't had him knocked off, he would've wondered why, and begun thinking.
 * Kitty: Jim! Jim!! Tell 'em I didn't know anything. Jim, listen to me. You can save me. Jim, do ya hear me? Tell them I didn't know those gunmen were coming. Say, 'Kitty is innocent. I swear, Kitty is innocent.' Say it, Jim, say it! It'll save me if you do.
 * Lubinsky: Don't ask a dyin' man to lie his soul into hell.
 * Kitty: 'Kitty is innocent. I swear, Kitty is innocent.'
 * Reardon: It's no use, Kitty. Your would-be fall guy is dead.
 * Kitty: Come back, Jim, tell them. Come back! SAVE ME! Jim! 'Kitty is innocent! I swear! Kitty is innocent! Kitty is innocent! I swear, Kitty is innocent! Kitty is innocent!'

 * Kenyon: And the Swede never knew his girl had gone straight back to Colfax with all the money. As for the others, they had no idea she'd ever been away from Colfax...And Colfax framed the whole thing, just so he wouldn't have to split the take.
 * Reardon: The double-cross to end all double-crosses!

Quotes

 * The theory community, myself included - became rather troubled about the particle.
 * about the pentaquark, soon after its thought-to-be discovery in 2003, particle physicists found that the particle took about 100 times longer to decay into a neutron and meson than other particles did of the same mass, as quoted by by Maggie McKee, New Scientist, (April 20, 2005)

"When writers die..."
"When writers die they become books, which is, after all, not too bad an incarnation" is attributed to Borges by Alistair Reid in this Guardian interview, and in articles elsewhere. I can't find any written origin (English or Spanish) for the quotation; it might be anecdotal. --Raeven0 18:09, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

I am not sure that I exist actually...
I found a source for this quote in Spanish. It appears in an article in El Pais, a newspaper in Spain, here. It is a bit after halfway down the article. Can someone source the quote? I don't know how to.

 * El fútbol es popular porque la estupidez es popular.
 * Football [soccer] is popular because stupidity is popular.

 * Hay que tener cuidado al elegir a los enemigos porque uno termina pareciéndose a ellos.
 * One must choose one's enemies carefully, as one ends up resembling them.

 * Que cada hombre construya su propia catedral. ¿Para qué vivir de obras de arte ajenas y antiguas?
 * Let each one build their own cathedral. Why live from alien and ancient works of art?

 * Que otros se jacten de las páginas que han escrito; a mi me enorgullecen las que he leído.

 * Death (or its allusion) makes men precious and pathetic. They are moving because of their phantom condition; every act they execute may be their last; there is not a face that is not on the verge of dissolving like a face in a dream.

 * No estoy seguro de que yo exista, en realidad. Soy todos los autores que he leído, toda la gente que he conocido, todas las mujeres que he amado. Todas las ciudades que he visitado, todos mis antepasados . . . Quizá me hubiera gustado ser mi padre, que escribió y tuvo la decencia de no publicar. . . . Nada, nada, amigo mío; lo que le he dicho: no estoy seguro de nada, no sé nada. Imagínese que ni siquiera sé la fecha de mi muerte . . .
 * I am not sure that I exist, actually. I am all the writers that I have read, all the people that I have met, all the women that I have loved; all the cities that I have visited, all my ancestors . . . Perhaps I would have liked to be my father, who wrote and had the decency of not publishing. . . . Nothing, nothing, my friend; what I have told you: I am not sure of anything, I know nothing. Can you imagine that I do not even know the date of my death?
 * This is Borges' comment on theories that he didn't really exist and who he would like to have been if he hadn't been himself, as quoted in José Luis A. Fermosel's interview "Jorge Luis Borges: 'No estoy seguro de que yo exista en realidad'" ("Jorge Luis Borges: 'I'm not sure that I really exist'") in El País, 26 Dec 1981. The first part of this—through "todos mis antepasados"—is already on the main page. Likewise, the Guardian translation referred to there stops at "all my ancestors." The extended translation above might well be from Christopher Ross' Mishima's Sword (2006, p. 130), which has the same typos that I corrected above, gives no source for the attribution to Borges, and mistakenly says Borges wrote it.) --Hughh (talk) 05:12, 12 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Not granting me the Nobel Prize has become a Scandinavian tradition; since I was born — August 24, 1899 — they have not been granting it to me.

 * Nothing is built on stone; all is built on sand, but we must build as if the sand were stone.

 * The image of the Lord had been replaced by a mirror.

 * Through the years, a man peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, tools, stars, horses and people. Shortly before his death, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the image of his own face.

 * "The central fact of my life has been the existence of words and the possibility of weaving those words into poetry."

 * "I do not write for a select minority, which means nothing to me, nor for that adulated platonic entity known as 'The Masses'. Both abstractions, so dear to the demagogue, I disbelieve in. I write for myself and for my friends, and I write to ease the passing of time." — Introduction to The Book of Sand

 * "I have always imagined that paradise will be a kind of library."

I don't think it vanity ... but it would be harder for us to expand it. Or is it better for us to move it to something appropriate themes, like "quarks"? --Aphaia 15:13, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

A brand new day [1.1]

 * [In this junior town, there is trees and the chirping of birds. Then Mickey Mouse approaches wearing a bathrobe.]
 * Mickey Mouse: [Drinking some orange juice and discovering the viewers]'’ Oh, hello! Today is the series premiere of the brand new series, called Disney Junior, the animated series, but animated. I can sometimes be 3-D dimensional. You see, it may be two-dimensional, but that doesn’t mean it cannot be a series! So, I’ve just finished taking my boss and it’s time for the show to begin. [He sips his orange juice and spits it out, discovering that the series has a release date of 2016]'' We got a release day already! But this is January 9, not later!

Anyways, since this is the series premiere, we have to do something about it. Remember, there was a pilot episode, but I don’t think it worked. It was too short and had approximately only two minutes. With the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, we got to do!

 * Captain Hook: [while tearing up a script and tossing it into the garbage]: This is garbage! Garbagel! [dumps the trash on the cartoonist's head] Nobody wants to see a show about some rich little brat named Monty! You'd better come up with a hit show by 9:00 A.M. tomorrow, kiddo...

 * The Animator: Hmm. Rabbits. [draws a picture of a baby rabbit]
 * Baby Rabbit: [giggles] Golly, gee whiz! Aren't I just the cutest thing you ever saw? Uh-huh, uh-huh, I sure am! I'll go to your house and I'll live forever and ever and ever and you'll never ever ever get tired of me, and I'll go hippety-hop, hippety-hop right into your heart!
 * The Animator: Ew! That thing'll give people cavities!
 * Baby Rabbit: I love everybody and all the world, and I even love... [voice gets muffled as the Animator crumples his sketch up and puts it in the garbage can] ...being crumpled and thrown away.
 * The Animator: Maybe something a bit more manly. [draws a picture of a Rambo-esque muscular rabbit]
 * Muscular Rabbit: Aah! Prepare to fry, you insignificant slug! [He fires his flamethrower, which sets the paper on fire. The Animator puts out the fire with a cup of coffee]
 * The Animator: "Never get him past the Parent-Teacher's association. I'll split the difference."

 * Buster Bunny: [after being created] Say, how about drawing me a best friend? A buddy, a compadre? Someone I can talk to rabbit to rabbit? [the Animator then paints Barbara Anne "Babs" Bunny] A GIRL?!
 * Babs Bunny: Welcome to the 90's.

 * Babs: It's a girl thing. So what's your name?
 * Buster: Good question. Hey, what are our names? [the Animator writes BUSTER above him] I'm Buster Bunny!
 * [The Animator writes BABS above her]
 * Babs: And I'm Babs Bunny!
 * Buster and Babs: No relation.

 * Buster: Roger, rabbit!
 * Babs: You've got the wrong bunny. [looks at her wrinkled state] Darn! I'm fourteen and I already have wrinkles! [pulls out an iron and irons herself]

 * [The camera pans over the map as Buster and Babs speak to each other]
 * Babs: So, what do you call it, Rembrant?
 * Buster: Green Acres.
 * Babs: Get current.
 * Buster: Okay, Acme Acres.

 * Sweetie Bird: Hello, I'm Sweetie. [giggles] I can be the birdie who is always being chased by that mean old Furrball. [Furrball is licking his paw and not even bothering to catch her] Leave me alone, you nasty vicious predator! [pulls out a mallet and hits him with it]
 * Babs: That's what this show needs, more heart! You're in!

 * Gogo: I'm Gogo Dodo, and I shall perform Hamlet's Soliloquy. Ahem. Two bees... [transforms into two bee versions of himself] Or not 2B... [transforms into a door marked 2B, which he crosses out, then transforms into the Riddler] That is the question.

 * Plucky Duck: Just a cotton-tailed minuto! You can't pull this show off without me! I am Plucky Duck. [hands them his card] My Resume. I'm a Swashbuckler! [turns into a 16th century swordsman] Oh, Ah! Perry, Thrush! [then changes into a superhero] Superhero! [flies up] Up, Up, and Up some more! [turns into a romantic man] A romantic lead, [then takes out a small mirror] Ah, you gorgeous hunk of duck! Let me take you away from this, and back to my place! [returns back in his normal clothing] And funny duck extraordinaire! [then takes out a pie and smashes it on his face] So what do you say uh, hmm uh?
 * Buster: Ok!
 * Babs: You're in!
 * Plucky: Great! what's my role? Musketeer? [turns into a musketeer] Romeo? [turns into Romeo] Or just king? [turns into a king, then Buster shows up next to him]
 * Buster: You're our sidekick. [then kicks Plucky into a pond, where he is standing in mid-air]
 * Plucky: Sidekick?! no way! [then notices the pond and falls into it. He then returns] I am no sidekick! Hamton's the sidekick type! He has all the earmarks of a sidekick! [then shows one of Hamton's ears has the word SIDEKICK written on it, then tosses Hamton off-screen] I am a superstar, a super duper nova star! That's what I am! I'm exploding with talent!

 * Dizzy Devil: Dizzy out of here! [spins to escape]
 * Elmyra Duff: [jumps out] Elmyra just wants to hug you and squeeze you into itty bitty pieces! And then I'm going to change your diaper by myself!

 * Montana Max: He can't do this to me! I'm rich! I'll Sue! [then jumps into the picture of Acme Acres] He'll never work in this town again!

 * Monty: You're what's the matter! You're a complete waste of space! You have a personality that rivals spore mold! On the evolutionary chart, you rank someplace between head cheese and toaster ovens. You're a cruise to nowhere! A null! A void! A 0!

And would you like to give a look to Advertising slogans, thanks. --Aphaia 00:36, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Advertising & Commercials
I want to thank you for so quickly creating and building up several television shows. As you've no doubt noticed, we have plenty of these that people have requested quotes from but have not yet been created, and your contributions are greatly appreciated.

On the subject of advertising and commercials, I would ask that you transfer the quotes you've listed into Advertising slogans, which is an established page that is also related to a Wikipedia article. Once the quotes have been moved over, you can turn the Advertising & Commercials article into a redirect to the "Advertising slogans" article. (If you don't know how to do this, I can help you, or I can do it myself. It's pretty easy.) Meanwhile, I will move all your new TV show articles from "Requested" into the main section of "Television shows", and add a "See also" link for "Advertising slogans" to accomodate your intent for "Advertising & Commercials". Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. — Jeff Q (talk) 00:54, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Paul Erdős

Paul Erdős [also Erdős Pál, Pál Erdős, Erdos or Erdös] (26 March 1913 – 20 September 1996) was an immensely prolific and famously eccentric mathematician who, with hundreds of collaborators, worked on problems in combinatorics, graph theory, number theory, classical analysis, approximation theory, set theory and probability theory.

Quotes

 * I think that, as, a very clever young Israeli mathematician, once said, "I am an opportunist. I do what I can do." If there is anything in number theory that I can do, I certainly do it. But you see some of the problems in number theory are enormously difficult and many of these classic problems are very, very hard to make any progress in.
 * as quoted by Donald J. Albers and ,

 * I'm not competent to judge. But no doubt he was a great man.
 * Response to a question by an agent of the US Immigration and Naturalization Service in 1954 as to what he thought of Karl Marx, often cited as an indication of his detachment from political sensibilities and the situations of the McCarthy era. He was afterwards denied a return visa for re-entering the US until 1959, after attending the International Congress of Mathematicians in Amsterdam; as quoted in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998) by Paul Hoffman, p. 128

 * Another roof, another proof.
 * His motto, as he roamed about the world, as the guest of other mathematicians, as quoted in A Tribute to Paul Erdős (1990) edited by Alan Baker, Béla Bollobás, A. Hajnal, Preface, p. ix

 * Suppose aliens invade the earth and threaten to obliterate it in a year's time unless human beings can find the Ramsey number for red five and blue five. We could marshal the world's best minds and fastest computers, and within a year we could probably calculate the value. If the aliens demanded the Ramsey number for red six and blue six, however, we would have no choice but to launch a preemptive attack.
 * As quoted in "Ramsey Theory" by Ronald L. Graham and Joel H. Spencer, in Scientific American (July 1990), p. 112-117

 * Television is something the Russians invented to destroy American education.
 * As quoted in Comic Sections : The Book of Mathematical Jokes, Humour, Wit, and Wisdom (1993) by Des MacHale

 * The SF created us to enjoy our suffering. … The sooner we die, the sooner we defy His plans.
 * SF was an abbreviation for "Supreme Fascist" — the term Erdős often used to refer to God, as quoted in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998) by Paul Hoffman, p. 4

 * Some French socialist said that private property was theft … I say that private property is a nuisance.
 * Referring to a famous statement by the French anarchist Pierre-Joseph Proudhon that "Property is theft!", as quoted in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers (1998) by Paul Hoffman, p. 7

 * My brain is open!
 * A standard greeting he would make when he was not contemplating some mathematical problem, as quoted in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 10

 * If numbers aren't beautiful, I don't know what is.
 * Frequent remark, as quoted in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 14

 * It is not enough to be in the right place at the right time. You should also have an open mind at the right time.
 * My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 99

 * Végre nem butulok tovább
 * Finally I am becoming stupider no more.
 * A suggestion for his own epitaph, as quoted in Variety in Religion and Science: Daily Reflections (2005) by Varadaraja Raman, p. 256

 * We'll continue tomorrow — if I live.
 * Common remark when breaking off work for the night, as quoted in "The Magician of Budapest" in The Edge of the Universe : Celebrating Ten Years of Math Horizons (2007) by Deanna Haunsperger and Stephen Kennedy, p. 111

 * This one's from the Book!
 * Said in regard to any particularly beautiful or elegant proof, referring to a mythical "book" in which God wrote the proofs for all theorems, as quoted in Philosophy of Mathematics (2008) by John Francis, p. 51

 * SF means Supreme Fascist — this would show that God is bad. I don't claim that this is correct, or that God exists, but it is just sort of half a joke. … As a joke I said, "What is the purpose of Life?" "Proof and conjecture, and keep the SF's score low." Now, the game with the SF is defined as follows: If you do something bad the SF gets at least two points. If you don't do something good which you could have done, the SF gets at least one point. And if nothing — if you are okay, then no one gets any point. And the aim is to keep the SF's score low.
 * Paul Erdős - SF means Supreme Fascist

Misattributed

 * God may not play dice with the universe, but something strange is going on with the prime numbers.
 * Referencing Albert Einstein's famous remark that "God does not play dice with the universe", this is attributed to Erdős in "Mathematics : Homage to an Itinerant Master" by D. Mackenzie, in Science 275:759 (1997), but has also been stated to be a comment originating in a talk given by Carl Pomerance on the Erdős-Kac theorem, in San Diego in January 1997, a few months after Erdős's death. Confirmation of this by Pomerance is reported in a statement posted to the School of Engineering, Computer Science & Mathematics, University of Exeter, where he states it was a paraphrase of something he imagined Erdős and Mark Kac might have said, and presented in a slide-show, which subsequently became reported in a newspaper as a genuine quote of Erdős the next day. In his slide show he had them both reply to Einstein's assertion: "Maybe so, but something is going on with the primes."

 * A mathematician is a machine for turning coffee into theorems.
 * Widely attributed to Erdős, this actually originates with Alfréd Rényi, according to My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdős (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 155
 * Variant: A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems.

 * The first sign of senility is that a man forgets his theorems, the second sign is that he forgets to zip up, the third sign is that he forgets to zip down.
 * Though Erdős used this remark, it is said to have originated with his friend Stanisław Ulam, as reported in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998) by Paul Hoffman
 * Variants:
 * The first sign of senility is when a man forgets his theorems. The second sign is when he forgets to zip up. The third sign is when he forgets to zip down.
 * As quoted in Wonders of Numbers : Adventures in Mathematics, Mind, and Meaning (2002) by Clifford A. Pickover, p. 64
 * There are three signs of senility. The first sign is that a man forgets his theorems. The second sign is that he forgets to zip up. The third sign is that he forgets to zip down.

Quotes about Erdős

 * Sorted alphabetically by author or source

 * Erdős knows about more problems than anybody else, and he not only knows about various problems and conjectures, but he also knows the tastes of various mathematicians. So if I get a letter from him giving me three of his conjectures and two of his problems, then it's sure that these are exactly the kind of conjectures and problems I'm interested in, and these are exactly the kind of questions I may be able to answer. Of course, this applies not only to me, but to everybody else. So Erdős has an amazing ability to match problems with people. Which is why so many mathematicians benefit from his presence. Every letter is likely to inspire you to do some work, or every phone call will give you some problems you are interested in.
 * Béla Bollobás, of Trinity College, University of Cambridge in N Is a Number: A Portrait of Paul Erdős (1993)

 * Paul Erdős is the consummate problem solver: his hallmark is the succinct and clever argument, often leading to a solution from "the book". He loves areas of mathematics which do not require an excessive amount of technical knowledge but give scope for ingenuity and surprise. The mathematics of Paul Erdős is the mathematics of beauty and insight.
 * Preface to A Tribute to Paul Erdős (1990) edited by Alan Baker, Béla Bollobás, and A. Hajnal

 * One of my greatest regrets is that I didn't know him when he was a million times faster than most people. When I knew him he was only hundreds of times faster.
 * Neil Calkin, one of Erdős's last collaborators, as quoted in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 119

 * Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős, although an atheist, spoke of an imaginary book, in which God has written down all the most beautiful mathematical proofs. When Erdős wanted to express particular appreciation of a proof, he would exclaim "This one's from the Book!". This viewpoint expresses the idea that mathematics, as the intrinsically true foundation on which the laws of our universe are built, is a natural candidate for what has been personified as God by different religious mystics.
 * John Francis, in Philosophy of Mathematics (2008), p. 51

 * He was an absolutely wonderful man. He was interested in everything. You felt right away that you are not dealing with one of your colleagues or an average guy. He was a genius, his thoughts were all over the place. I've met very smart people. I have never met a genius before. … He basically disregarded any disciplined approach to anything.
 * Dr. Jonas Gellert, his cardiologist, as quoted in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998) by Bruce Schechter, p. 119

 * Probably the greatest mathematician of the twentieth century, Paul Erdős … was so eccentric that he made Einstein look normal. He was 11 before he ever tied his shoes, 21 before he ever buttered toast, and died without ever boiling an egg. Erdős lived on the road, traveling from conference to conference, owning nothing but math notebooks and a suitcase or two. His life consisted of math, nothing else.
 * Clifford Goldstein, in The Mules That Angels Ride (2005), p. 125

 * This book is dedicated to Paul Erdos, who not only possessed the art of asking the right question, but of asking it of the right person.
 * Richard K. Guy in Unsolved Problems in Number Theory, 3rd Edition (2004)

 * The SF is the Supreme Fascist, the Number-One Guy Up There, God, who was always tormenting Erdős by hiding his glasses, stealing his Hungarian passport, or, worse yet, keeping to Himself the elegant solutions to all sorts of intriguing mathematical problems.
 * Paul Hoffman, in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 4

 * He wrote or co-authored 1,475 academic papers, many of them monumental, and all of them substantial. It wasn't just the quantity of work that was impressive but the quality: "There is an old saying," said Erdős. "Non numerantur, sed ponderantur (They are not counted but weighed).
 * Paul Hoffman, in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 6

 * In a never-ending search for good mathematical problems and fresh mathematical talent, Erdős crisscrossed four continents at a frenzied pace, moving from one university or research center to the next. His modus operandi was to show up on the doorstep of a fellow mathematician, declare, "My brain is open," work with his host for a day or two, until he was bored or his host was run down, and then move on to another home. Erdős's motto was not "Other cities, other maidens" but "Another roof, another proof." He did mathematics in more than 25 different countries, completing important proofs in remote places and sometimes publishing them in equally obscure journals.
 * Paul Hoffman, in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 6

 * His language had a special vocabulary — not just "the SF" [God] and "epsilon" [child] but also "bosses" (women), "slaves" (men), "captured" (married), "liberated" (divorced), "recaptured" (remarried), "noise" (music), "poison" (alcohol), "preaching" (giving a mathematics lecture), "Sam" (the United States), and "Joe" (the Soviet Union). When he said someone had "died," Erdős meant that the person had stopped doing mathematics. When he said someone had "left," the person had died.
 * Paul Hoffman, in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 8

 * In the late 1980s Erdős heard of a promising high school student named Glen Whitney who wanted to study mathematics at Harvard but was a little short the tuition. Erdős arranged to see him and, convinced of the young man's talent, lent him $1,000. He asked Whitney to pay him back only when it would not cause financial strain. A decade later Graham heard from Whitney, who at last had the money to repay Erdős. "Did Erdős expect me to pay interest?" Whitney wondered. "What should I do?" he asked Graham. Graham talked to Erdős. "Tell him," Erdős said, "to do with the $1,000 what I did."
 * Paul Hoffman, in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 10

 * As a mathematician Erdös is what in other fields is called a "natural". If a problem can be stated in terms he can understand, though it may belong to a field with which he is not familiar, he is as likely as, or even more likely than, the experts to find a solution.
 * Mark Kac, Enigmas Of Chance, p. 93

 * Paul Erdős (1913–1996) was once told that a friend of his had shot and killed his wife. Without blinking an eye, Erdős said, "Well, she was probably interrupting him when he was trying to prove a theorem."
 * Steven G. Krantz, (1st edition, 2005)

 * In the early 1960s, when I was a student at University College London … Erdős came to visit us for a year. After collecting his first month's salary he was accosted by a beggar on Euston station, asking for the price of a cup of tea. Erdős removed a small amount from the pay packet to cover his own frugal needs and gave the remainder to the beggar.
 * D. G. Larman, as quoted in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998) by Paul Hoffman, p. 10

 * A conjecture both deep and profound Is whether a circle is round. In a paper of Erdős Written in Kurdish A counterexample is found.
 * Limerick attributed to Leo Moser, in Handbook of Combinatorics (1995) edited by Ronald L. Graham, Ch. 17
 * Variant:
 * A conjecture thought to be sound Was that every circle was round In a paper of Erdős written in Kurdish A counterexample is found!
 * Attributed to an unnamed colleague, quoted in "The Magician of Budapest" by Peter Schumer, in The Edge of the Universe : Celebrating Ten Years of Math Horizons (2007) by Deanna Haunsperger and Stephen Kennedy, p. 110

 * He was the Bob Hope of mathematics, a kind of vaudeville performer who told the same jokes and the same stories a thousand times. … When he was scheduled to give yet another talk, no matter how tired he was, as soon as he was introduced to an audience, the adrenaline (or maybe amphetamine) would release into his system and he would bound onto the stage, full of energy, and do his routine for the 1001st time.
 * Melvyn Nathanson, as quoted in The Man Who Loved Only Numbers : The Story of Paul Erdős and the Search for Mathematical Truth (1998), p. 11

 * "Want to meet Erdos?" mathematicians would ask. "Just stay here and wait. He'll show up."
 * Bruce Schechter, in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998), p. 14

 * He loved to play silly tricks to amuse children and to make sly jokes and thumb his nose at authority. But most of all, Erdős loved those who loved numbers, mathematicians.
 * Bruce Schechter, in My Brain Is Open : The Mathematical Journeys of Paul Erdos (1998), p. 17

 * Twenty hours of work a day was not unusual. Upon arriving at a meeting, he would announce, in his thick Hungarian accent, "my brain is open." At parties, he would often stand alone oblivious to all else, deep in thought pondering some difficult argument.
 * Peter Schumer in "The Magician of Budapest" in The Edge of the Universe : Celebrating Ten Years of Math Horizons (2007) by Deanna Haunsperger and Stephen Kennedy, p. 110

 * Nothing bothered Erdős more than political strictures which did not allow for complete freedom of expression and the ability to travel freely. … Always traveling with a single shabby suitcase which doubled as a briefcase, he had little need or interest in the material world.
 * Peter Schumer in "The Magician of Budapest" in The Edge of the Universe : Celebrating Ten Years of Math Horizons (2007) by Deanna Haunsperger and Stephen Kennedy, p. 110
