deckardcanineBetween Nefaria and Sleepy John, the speakers of the three best-known quotes were all identified yesterday. (Might I mention that I realized for the first time that "codfish" is redundant.) I would have been very impressed indeed if anyone got the others. Now to tell you:
"However far this slave may go, he won't forget. That's a characteristic that the Irish have in common with the elephants."
-- title character in the Errol Flynn classic Captain Blood
"Leave it to my little idiots to start a riot."
-- Dola, voiced by Cloris Leachman in the dubbing of Laputa: Castle in the Sky
"'Impossible' is a word that people use so they don't feel bad when they quit."
-- Vyse in the Gamecube port of the Dreamcast RPG Skies of Arcadia
Only afterward did I realize that all six speakers were captains.
On another subject, IIRC, I have now lived in my basement suite for a full year. A personal milestone.
