Allen Gamble:*[Hoitz and Gamble barely survive an explosion] I can't hear! I can't hear! There's blood blisters on my hands! Oh, my God! How do you walk away in a movie without flinching when it explodes behind them? There's no way! I call bull**** on that! When they flew the Millennium Falcon outside of the Death Star, and it was followed by the explosion, that was bull****!

Terry Hoitz:*Don't you dare badmouth Star Wars! That was all accurate!

“The invention of the teenager was a mistake,” Judith Martin observed. “Once you identify a period of life in which people get to stay out late but don’t have to pay taxes — naturally, no one wants to live any other way.”

Journalists: It's our policy not to show you.

“The worrisome lesson of history is that there is no shortage of strongmen and generalissimos, and their holding power and exercising it ruthlessly is the natural state of human affairs. Nobody has to do anything to make that happen; it’s making that not happen that requires our attention.” — Kevin D. Williamson

“The wave of the future isn’t a wave at all, but an eternal tide that champions of freedom must fight against, constantly. For if they stop, even briefly, the tide will push them back to the shores of the natural human condition, and the state of nature is not liberal-democratic capitalism but tribal, thuggish authoritarianism.” – Jonah Goldberg, 2014

"No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems — of which getting elected and re-elected are number one and number two. Whatever is number three is far behind." – Thomas Sowell

"When a man who is honestly mistaken hears the truth, he will either quit being mistaken or cease to be honest." - John Thomas

Might wanna check spelling.
Before .... over building should probably be "worth", not "work".
