Meme . . . mooooo . . .

This one's kind of fun. Some of these will be really easy, but that's only because I hang out with people who like the same things. :-) Ten quotes that I expect my friends will recognize:
(1) Mawwiage is a dweam wiffin a dweam.
(2) It's time to play the music, it's time to light the lights!
(3) A dangerous flight into the world of a man... who does not exist.
(4) God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.
(5) Always five, acting as one.
(6) You guys are missing out on a good deal if you kill me. See, I'm kind of an expert with just about everything.
(7) When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
(8) No matter how far Garion rose in life, he never forgot that all his memories began in that kitchen.
(9) I've got forward momentum. There's no virtue in it. It's just a balancing act. I don't dare stop.
(10) This is where the wealthy and the powerful rule. It is her world, a world apart from mine.

Very good! I wondered who would get that one.

I used to be a huge BatB fan. I was very happy when they finally came out on DVD. I bought both first and second seasons the day they were released.

I'm hoping to pick them up eventually.

4 is Pratchett.

Sort of... can you be more specific? :-)

[identity profile] zsero.livejournal.com 2007-08-17 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Ummm, the preface to Small Gods? That's just a guess; it's been years since I read it. It's definitely Pratchett, though.

Not quite...

#3- Let me consult KITT for the right answer :)
I love that you enjoy 80s TV as much as I do.

Ohhhh. I gave in to curiosity and clustied (http://clusty.com) it. It's from Good Omens, which I first read about 16 years ago, and last read in Hebrew translation about 3 years ago.

6. MacGyver
10. Beauty and The Beast (My daughter and I are watching the first two seasons together. She loves it!! I'm so relieved)

I think 5 is Ape related, but not certain and others saw Princess Bride, Kitt, etc. Me thinks you like the late 70s and 80s!!!

Not surprising that you didn't recognize it, then.

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2007-08-21 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
You got it!

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2007-08-21 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
We should get together and watch some! :-)

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2007-08-21 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I was born in '70 so that makes sense...

Very good!
