People of Earth, your attention, please. This is Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz of the Galactic Hyperspace Planning Council. As you will no doubt be aware, the plans for development of the outlying regions of the Galaxy require the building of a hyperspatial express route through your star system. And regrettably, your planet is one of those scheduled for demolition. The process will take slightly less than two of your Earth minutes. Thank you. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot

“If you’d have let me into your mind like your friend here, I wouldn’t have needed the gun.” That was where the headache had come from. I grinned and tapped my head. “Blame that on the fish in my brain.” Deb stared. “What the hell are you talking about?” “Telepathic fish.” (Libriomancer, Magic ex Libris 1, by Jim C Hines) #PocketsReads #MagicExLibris #DouglasAdams

Whatever else he might have said was lost as he finished his transformation into a lean, black-furred wolf. He lowered his gray-dusted muzzle to the floor and sniffed. His lips peeled back in a low growl. “Oh, cool,” I said. “What is it?” asked Lena. “I can understand him.” Jeff wasn’t speaking a true language, but the fish in my head could pick up the thoughts behind his vocalizations. (Codex Born, Magic ex Libris 2, by Jim C Hines) [Does anyone know if that's canonical? Babbel fish translating werewolf?] #PocketsReads #MagicExLibris #DouglasAdams

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue-green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot

"We apologize for the inconvenience." God's Final Message to His Creation, written in letters of fire on the side of the Quentulus Quazgar Mountains. "I think," Marvin murmured at last, from deep within his corroding rattling thorax, "I feel good about it." The lights went out in his eyes for absolutely the very last time ever. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot
