“A short ride up into the dark hills overlooking glittering Hollywood and we were set loose in front of one of the biggest mansions I had ever seen in life or television. And I don’t mean mansion as in “a really big house”—I mean mansion as in motherfucking MANSION. You simply had to see it to believe it, but for those of you that were there, you knew it was as close to Mt. Olympus as we mortals will ever get.”

“The fact is, that civilization requires slaves. The Greeks were quite right there. Unless there are slaves to do the ugly, horrible, uninteresting work, culture, and contemplation become almost impossible. Human slavery is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.”

“That something happened to you is of no importance to anyone, not even to you. The important thing about you is what you choose to make happen - your values and choices. That which happened by accident - what family you were born into, in what country, and where you went to school - is totally unimportant.”

“Killing an alien wouldn’t fall under the bill… [unless] it’s an alien that looks like a human, which is an alien, yes. ... If it was an alien that pretended to be a human, I guess then it’s human. Then it would fall under this bill because it’s human against human. ... How would we know he was an alien?”

“Call it the advance of civilization. There’s no room for jungles any more. Too many people. There won’t be any jungles or deserts left. We’ll clear the jungles and irrigate the deserts, and I suppose someday we’ll even level all the mountains, except for the ones we save for ski slopes. And instead of snakes and insects and animals and birds, there will be rows and rows of little square houses where there used to be jungles and deserts and mountains. And everyone will have enough to eat, and no one will die of sickening diseases and everyone will speak Esperanto and have 2.7 children and pensions when they’re old and nondenominational services when they die. And they’ll all join bowling leagues and complain about crabgrass and watch color television and when they talk to each other, Esperanto will be as good as anything else because they won’t have anything to say.”
