Quote of the Day

[the_rogueEMT]

since the last thread got broken. I figured I would bring the daily quotes back.

a quote that is kinda funny to me is....."The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds, given adequate vacuuming systems." River Tam

another is.....

"Mercy is the mark of a great man...guess I'm just a good man" Mal Reynolds

and just one more (this is a couple lines).....

Jubal Early: You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl's the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport, yet by far the most most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Simon: What'd he do?

Jubal: Who?

Simon: The midget.

Jubal: Arson. Little guy loved fire

bonus points if you know what show/movie this came from

I have a few more quotes from the FIREFLY series......

"When you can't run, you crawl; when you can't crawl, when you can't do that you find someone to carry you" Unknown FIREFLY

and the last one from FIREFLY for now is.....

"Someones carrying a bullet for you right now and don't even know it. The trick is die before it finds you" Mal Reynolds......

and one that I think fits the EMS field comes from a movie

"The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few, or the one" Spock

To keep in the spirit of sci-fi...

"Resistance is futile..." - The Borg, Star Trek Next Generation

[Richard B the EMT]

"The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few, or the one" Spock

The needs of the one sometimes outweigh the needs of the many.

Kirk, "Star Trek: The Voyage Home"

this next quote is also more of a phrase....it is from one of the levels in HALO 3 for the XBOX 360.....here it is....

During the middle of The Ark when you mount up in the tank brigade and you first start your fight, one of your passengers will call out as you blow stuff up.

"Tank beats Ghost..."

"Tank beats Hunters"

"Tank beats Phantom"

After you next kill:

"Tank beats everything

Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
