Speak to me only in Science Fiction

We’ll survive here–if we fight.

I’ll fix you some coffee, then you can jump me.

“We mean no harm to your planet,” I said.

Then I jumped.

Apathetic bloody planet, I’ve no sympathy at all. Energize the demolition beams.

This display of barbaric behavior was unacceptable even in your time!

Is he bothering you? I’ll cover his head with a pillowcase.

Come on, Cohaagen! You got what you want. Give those people air!

I’ll buy that for a dollar!

No, you twit! This isn’t Jackson’s Whole–you can’t buy and sell people!

A slave may not be happy with her lot, but most do nothing to improve it. Most do not believe it can be improved.

I don’t believe in the no-win scenario.

Ralph, try “scenario”.

Remember every black day I ever stopped you, and then, and then, do the smart thing: let somebody else try first

He’s brilliant, absolutely brilliant. He’s almost as smart as I am.

Brain and brain-- what is brain?!

In time you will come to regard me not only with respect and awe, but with love.

Yes, but you’ve also made a fool out of me, and you’ve made the life I lead foolish, too!

You are being irrational. Go back to bed.

And so it goes…

Not for long.
