Does anybody else here love The Tick.
I know it is a cartoon but it has some of the best one liners I have ever heard.
A few examples:
and so, may evil beware and may good dress warmly and eat lots of fresh vegetables.
Well, once again my friend, we find that science is a two-headed beast. One head is nice, it gives us aspirin and other modern conveniences. . . but the other head of science is bad! Oh beware the other head of science, Arthur, it bites!"
Life is a big wild crazy tossed salad, but you don't eat it, no sir! You live it!
You know gang, when you're a superhero, you never know where the day will take you. You may find yourself halfway around the world in the shark-infested waters of true-to-life living. Or you may find yourself going down to the store for a lozenge. You can't know, can you? No! You gotta ride that wave, you gotta suck that lozenge! 'Cause if you don't, who will?
You know Arthur, it's really been quite a day. On the outside, on the surface, oh sure, we were pursued by Swiss industrial spies, trapped in the belly of a whale. But what really pursued us? Where were we really trapped? C'mon Arthur! Get Meta with me! What pursued us were our own obsessions. I'm good, you're evil. I'm a super hero, you're a sidekick. I'm a woman, you're a man. What does it all mean? Nothing! And where were we all trapped? I'll tell you where Arthur! In the belly of love, love chum... LOVE.
Dinner's great! I especially like how you cut up my hot dogs to look like octopi.
Lab rat for your thoughts?
Gravity is a harsh mistress.
Come on, Arthur. The night is young and we have umbrellas in our drinks.
When evil's afoot, and you don't have any arms, you've got to do a little leg work. And when evil's ahead, and you're a little behind, you've got to stay hip. You've got to keep on your toes! You've got to kick a little--
Hug your destiny, Arthur!
I can't lose my name! It's on all my stationary!!
TV Reporter: Can you blow up the Earth?
The Tick: Egad! I hope not! That's where I keep all my stuff!
You don't fight destiny, no sir... and you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future!
The Fourth Dimension is just one big crazy do not enter clambake jungle of weirdity -- and how does it work? Never mind!
