Television:

since there is no "favorite quotes" section, television has become my favorite quotes section.Favorite quotes:"Dooooooooooon't mess with it"-Gary Owens, Space quest IV;(Upon his death bed): "Those curtains are fucking hideous." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"The only thing worse than being talked about, is not being talked about (and vice versa)." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. I knew a bloke who got shot in the head and then was buggered by the prime minister of Canada live on News at Ten. That was his." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Nostradamus wasn't fucking around." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Kumquats, Kumquats! I must have my Kumquats!" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Why do I keep getting mail addressed to 'Willy Wonka'? What the hell? Does that have anything to do with the French? God, those loathsome French." ~ Oscar Wilde ;" That fat Irish cunt couldnt run a bath, let alone a group.." ~Oscar "Fat Irish Bitch" Wilde ;"Bridge? What fucking bridge? Oscar "Chappaquiddick" Wilde ;"Winston Churchill has better quotes than I. And has been doing it longer." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"No no no, on the second thought, mine are better. Yeah they are. Of course!" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Have you seen my pants? I'm sure I left them round here somewhere" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"If you really think I said this, you're dumber than you look" ~ Oscar Wilde ; "Cyrano de Bergerac? Let's see, sat he not upon the Queen Mother's knee in Saxony?" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Who the fuck is John Galt?" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"The tragedy of Canada is that it could have had British culture, French cuisine and American technology. Instead it got American culture, British cuisine and French technology." ~ Oscar Wilde ;"THIS INTERFERES HEAVILY WITH YOUR WORKING DAY" ~ Oscar Wilde ;"Holy shit!! Burnt Pigs!! I must have them on my doiley!! Post-haste!!!!!"- Oscar "related to anonymous" Wilde ;
