you"re an astronaught on the moon and you fear that your partner has been
turned into Dracula. The next time he goes out for the moon pieces, wham!,
you just slam the door behind him and blast off. He might call you on the
radio and say he"s not Dracula, but you just say, "Think again, bat
man."" | | | Jack Handey
| | | "I have been told that one of the reasons the astronomers of the
world cooperate is the fact that there is no one nation from which the
entire sphere of the sky can be seen. Perhaps there is in that fact a
parable for national statesmen, whose political horizons are all too often
limited by national horizons." | | | Adlai Ewing Stevenson
| | | "RESPONSIBILITY, n. A detachable burden easily shifted to the
shoulders of God, Fate, Fortune, Luck or one"s neighbor. In the days of
astrology it was customary to unload it upon a star." | | | Ambrose Gwinett Bierce
| | | "The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in our stars, But in ourselves if
we are underlings." | | | William Shakespeare

respectable." | | | John Kenneth Galbraith
| | | "When I heard the learn"d astronomer, When the proofs, the figures,
were ranged in columns before me, When I was shown the charts and
diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them, When I sitting heard the
astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture room, How
soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, Till rising and gliding out I
wander"d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to
time, Look"d up in perfect silence at the stars." | | | Walt Whitman
