Martin: I came through customs and all I had to declare was... um, jelly from New Delhi, a tunic from Munich, some maracas from Caracas and some… cattle from Seattle.
Douglas: Some cattle?
Martin: Yes, why not?
Douglas: No, fine, big plane.

“Hello, my name is First Officer Douglas Richardson. On behalf of the captain and myself, a warm welcome aboard this MJN flight to Qikiqtarjuaq. Just to let you know, we will be flying out from Toronto today, roughly “North by Northwest,” at the “Vertigo”-inducing height of twenty thousand feet, way above “The Birds.” You will already have met your purser today, Carolyn “Rebecca” “Topaz,” but now, as “The Lady Vanishes” behind the “Torn Curtain” into the galley, the steward will hold you “Spellbound” with his “Notorious” demonstration of “The Thirty-Nine Steps” to a safe evacuation, though these basically boil down to three: pull the “Rope,” inflate the “Lifeboat,” and escape through the “Rear Window”.” Douglas Richardson, Qikiqtarjuaq, Cabin Pressure (via cabinpressurequotesftw)

“Granny Weatherwax didn’t hold with looking at the future, but now she could feel the future looking at her. She didn’t like its expression at all.” Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters (1989)

“If you do not yet know who the Nac Mac Feegles are: 1) be grateful for your uneventful life; and 2) be prepared to beat a retreat if you hear anyone as high as your ankles shout “Crivens!” They are, strictly speaking, one of the faerie folk, but it is probably not a good idea to tell them this if you are looking forward to a future in which you still have your teeth.” Terry Pratchett, I Shall Wear Midnight (2010)

#103 Cremona - Baby, Kiss me

(bing bong!)

Douglas: Good evening. This is First Officer Douglas Richardson. Just to let you know we’re now making our final preparations to Fly You To The Moon.
While we’re airborne I do hope you’ll take advantage of the opportunity to play among the stars; those of you sitting on the left-hand side of the aircraft should have an excellent view of what spring is like on Jupiter … and on the right-hand side, Mars.
In other words, hold my hand; in other words, baby, kiss me.
Cabin doors to automatic.

“Death gave Mort the look he was coming to be familiar with. It started off as blank surprise, flickered briefly towards annoyance, called in for a drink at recognition and settled finally on vague forbearance.” Mort (Terry Pratchett)

Douglas: Well, my decoy applejuice, certainly.

“You loved to shout. Shout and smoke. Those were your twin passions. And so, in a way, I suppose you died doing what you loved: shouting and smoking and covered in foam. I don’t know if you liked that.” Arthur Shappey, Boston, Cabin Pressure (via cabinpressurequotesftw)
